this is interesting. just created a playlist at 8track.com featuring some songs i like a lot. not sure how it works or exactly what the rules are. like can i talk about who plays on each track, what stands out about it for me, etc? anyway, give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Lala just shut down for good. So sad!
What will replace it? So far, nothing, not even mog.com comes close. Maybe Apple will launch itunes.com soon, and retain most of the social networking features of lala.com. Only time will tell.
P.S. A bunch of music I embedded from lala.com just went dark too. Oh well. So much for living in the cloud…

allow me to quote myself:
56 seconds of bliss: dado moroni and tom harrell doing a soundcheck. i love listening to and watching musicians deal with the creative process. rehearsing a new tune, creating new vamp. eye contact. smiles. i even have a collection of mistakes. betty carter starting a song off too fast, having to say sorry, stop, start again (and i love that betty left that on the recording). a whole bunch of charlie parker outtakes. it’s all good!
listen to the first ten seconds. not only did betty start this song too fast. not only did she stop and restart the song at a slower tempo. not only did she leave the mistake on her recording. this is the title track of the album.
otoh, the song is all about “stumbling and droppin’ things!”

The folks at A Passion For Jazz posted a cool series of tweets about what you’re likely to hear from jazz musicians taking a break during a gig:
Huh?

Posting this on the chance this might help someone else. We own a Dacor Epicure ERD36SCH Dual Fuel Range. I accidentally spilled some water on the top of the range causing all hell to break loose. The control pad started beeping, and the oven door kept locking and unlocking on its own. In the end, the door was locked and we couldn’t get it opened.This had happened once before and we were able to find instructions for clearing the fault. This time, finding appropriate information online was difficult, but ultimately successful.
So if you have this problem, download Dacor’s Diagnostic Manual and carefully follow the instructions for the ERC Quick Test on page 3. That worked for us.
If your control pad doesn’t have one of the buttons contained in the test, skip it and move on to the next. Don’t forget to hold the “cook time” button for ten seconds in step 9.
Good luck!
