    Music?

    Incidentally I was thinking about your & Salv's posts the other night... I have to say actually, as for "gansta", I actually agree with you. I even said so myself not long ago, with what Rap's become, far as I'm concerned, I wouldn't mind if it dropped off the face of the earth altogether...

    Music?

    (Course I could've agreed with you even more before rap devolved from an art form into "gangsta" stuff... :eusa_doh: ) but I'll say it anyway, just because: Go Salv! :eusa_clap Maybe you know this - there's a jazz-hiphop fusion trumpet artist recorded an instrumental CD around 2000 - 2002...

    How has ebay changed collecting locally, in person?

    Definitely. (Raleigh, NC) Done a lot of record hunting especially in high school & college (when gangsta rap pushed me permanently out of hiphop and into the swing era!), and noticed those last few years before I graduated, more and more on ebay & less & less locally. Sure was fun finding...

    Summer Mix Tape

    Cool. Didn't know Peggy Lee sang with Miller's band - was that before or after he died? Always associated her with Goodman's band, then the Capitol solo career... Wow :) "they don't make em like they used to" - Cousin Hepcat

    Summer Mix Tape

    For the "drunken sunburnt journey of the mind remembering all those girls you never kissed", something by Death Cab for Cutie, maybe Sound of Settling... most anything off Transatlanticism... Course you could always throw a curveball in the list and go vintage, maybe even introduce some folks...

    Favorite post-2000 bands?

    Been checking out everyone's posted bands on Amazon sound clips, some really amazing stuff! (Neecerie, Bland's 1980s Malaco tracks are The Coolest... got a couple in the 45 jukebox, what a great sound for a rainy night, right along with Brook Benton's Rainy Night in Georgia...) Now...

    Your Favorite Pastime As a Child...

    You got that right - Smith was one of the last "good guys" of rap coming out of the 80s / early 90s without selling out to the gangsta #$%@! When Eazy E & all the wannabe thugs came on, I pretty much quit listening to anything new, just oldies, mainly 30s-40s swing bands & some jazz & r&b from...
