Welcome

Have fun and enjoy the music. This effort is made purely out of love for the music, and as jazz lends itself to discussion so nicely don't forget to drop a line; don't be afraid of the keyboard, it won't bite you. Your thoughts, suggestions & contributions are welcome.

oops! I meant traffic feed...

d3lta said...

You're welcome MizJ. Your Freudian skip was totally to the point, I prefer to see it as a live jazz feed myself :-)

Jazzman said...

Your posts are significant. Keep up the good work!

Hello Jazzman. Thank you for broadening my horizons and showing the path to jazz listening nirvana. I would like to contribute, but what?

d3lta said...

Anyone can contribute be it links, news, impressions/reviews of jazz concerts, new releases and the like, nothing better than talking jazz between jazz lovers ;-)

Dear Delta,

How about a post dedicated to Humphrey Lyttelton, jazz trumpeter, old Etonian and ex-Guards Officer?

d3lta said...

Dear Vapsomallias,

You are absolutely right, the great late Humph was a towering figure of the English media with a charming personalty to boot. If you care to check here, I think you will find the contents most satisfactory.

And a very good morning to you Sir -- and of course to our recently deceased friend.

trane said...

Hi d3lta, congratulations, both the music and the videos are terrific!, so thanks a lot.
By the way, while I had no problem whatsoever in downloading a couple of music files with Rapidshare, I was wondering if there was a way of downloading some of the videos you uploaded on Dailymotion. I tried with Orbit, which seems exactly the correct program, but although it says "video downloaded", when I try to 'open' it on my pc, nothing happens!
Any tips??!!
Trane

d3lta said...

Hi trane, although I've never tried downloading from dailymotion, I guess that these should be flash video files, so you need to rename them with the extention *.flv and use appropriate software to decode them like vlc media player or flv player (both freeware), hope that solves it.

trane said...

Yes, thanks, in fact I just had to use the right program - orbit didnt work. Now everything is fine
Cheers
Trane

Chris said...

Ah yes, Lou Donaldson. Being a trumpet player myself, I became aware of Mr. Donaldson through his work with Art Blakey, which of course included the immortal Clifford Brown (my absolute jazz idol).

d3lta,
Can you please repost the link for Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder" that you originally posted a year ago? The link is dead. Much appreciated. :)

Mike
Great blog.I wondered about if you have checked Eddie Lang and Lonnie Johnson (great stuff have on LP) to see if there were any bad files uploaded.Also I can't find a tutorial on Cuecards 2000.None on Google search and Youtube.Can you direct a computer idiot where to find a way to use (can find iso but not CC2000).Also wondering why you use it and not just burn to flac and upload with meta allready there.I use FreeripMp3 and can make FLAC and upload easily.Why use Iso????
Thanks
Chazz

d3lta said...

@Chazz, Messrs Lang & Johnson are in place, just checked. And what do you mean by cuecards 2000? All recent flac uploads have embedded cues, the extra cues are included for convenience, one can do a lot of things with them using the necessary software, cues are the lingua franca of lossless uploads.

Hey there, just found this blog via stumble. I'd love to deepen my understanding of jazz, but I can't find the links... Have they all been taken down recently?
