  1. Watched this morning: Eroica. A BBC film about Beethoven and the first rehearsal of his 3rd. Wonderful rendition of the symphony by Gardiner, by the way. It's on Youtube, you have it as a 9 part watch list or a version with Spanish subtitles. They're not very annoying
  2. Jose, what famous interpretation is included in the "The Best of Bill Evans on Verve" anthology? As I've seen that CD doesn't include "Peace Piece" nor "Some Other Time". Do you mean "Love Theme"?
  3. Happy Birthday, Todd!!!
  4. Thank you very much! It was a nice one. Nothing really extraordinary on the celebration side, just a 10 courses fancy meal with the wife, but lots of friends and family sending messages and making phone calls. Some whiskey was consumed with friends. The sad part is that the previous night my uncle Manolo died at 85. He lived an unusual life. Godspeed!
  5. Oh shit RIP Rutger
  6. RIP Art. Lots of fun music to enjoy, thanks!
  7. Currently listening to it on showreel

    A trio concert by Teddy Wilson for the Norwegian TV in 1973. https://tv.nrk.no/program/FUHA01005473
  9. I'm watching it too, but the noisy loud music and the unnecessarily loud tension creating sound effects annoy me to no end. There should be a law that no music or effects should sound any louder than a shout out dialogue.
  10. I have no idea how the Phonitor sounds and if it's worth the price of admission, but it's one of the coolest with all the pots and the VU meters.
  11. Oh, sorry for missing it, Jose. Happy belated Birthday!!!
  12. Cool. In my teens I had a (pirate) CB radio at home for like three years which allowed me to get in touch with people far away, the farthest was Australia, almost our antipodes, then passed the tests to get a license for a larger station, but never managed to buy and install the gears, so I guess it expired. Now the laws have changed and it seems easier to get a license. Are you planning to set up a serious home station?
  13. Rest in peace, João. Thanks for the beautiful music
  14. Happy Birthday, Mike!!!
  15. Happy Birthday, my friend! Have a great one indeed.
  16. I tried it long ago. A far cry from the F2K in Windows [emoji17]
  17. RIP Mr Iacocca.
  18. Happy Birthday!!!
  19. Yup, a pretty good show

    Dear lord what a list. The only tapes I hadn't saved from there are Yoko Ono's, all the others are just worthy in the worst case, the vast majority are a terrible loss. I can't help wondering what would have been of current music if all those hadn't ever existed.
  23. I got a WeTr link from the Autechre site, probably the same one. Thanks for the heads up
  24. Happy (belated) Birthday, Kerry!!! I'm glad it was a nice one
  25. Listening to it on the Showreel. Liking the first tune.
