The University radio station just got their copy.  Here's what's listed:

Dive
Sliver
Stain
Been a Son [BBC Mark Goodier Session]
Turnaround [BBC Peel Session]
Molly's Lips [BBC Peel Session]
Son of a Gun [BBC Peel Session]
(New Wave) Polly [BBC Mark Goodier Session]
Beeswax
Downer
Mexican Seafood
Hairspray Queen
Aero Zeppelin
Big Long Now
Aneurism [BBC Mark Goodier Session]

I haven't had a chance to hear it yet, and the liner notes are less than
totally informative.  "Dive"/"Sliver" are from a SubPop 7" (and later 
from a Tupelo CD5/12" with extra live tracks), "Stain" is from the "Blew"
CD-5, "Beeswax" is from *Kill Rock Stars*, "Downer" is one of the CD bonus 
tracks on *Bleach*, "Mexican Seafood" is from the *Teriyaki Asthma* 
complilation.  (This is all assuming that they didn't substitute unreleased
versions without telling, of course.)

Of the BBC tracks, "Turnaround", "Molly's Lips" and "Son of a Gun" were
released on the Japanese/Australian *Hormoaning* CD.  The original version
of "Been a Son" is from "Blew" and that of "Aneurism" from the "Teen Spirit"
single.

All in all, it's a rather irritating collection from a completist point of
view, lacking, for instance, the live version of "Molly's Lips" from the
split single they did with the Fluid, "Return of the Rat" from the Wipers 
tribute, "Spank Thru" from *SubPop 200* and "D-7" from *Hormoaning*.  Also, 
a couple of the choices are somewhat puzzling.  "Downer" for example is both 
unmemorable and easily obtained (*Bleach* isn't exactly scarce these days).

well, the way i heard it, on the grunge list, where everybody
loves (or loved, past tense) nirvana, is that on the original
pressing, the engineers heard the end of the track 12 and
stopped. so the 10 minutes silence and the big noise at the
end were missing. but someone told them they stuffed it up, so
on the later releases the 13th song (included "in" the 12th song)
is there. ie, the CDs with no 13th song are the originals, and
will progressivly become rarer, and might actually end up being
collectors items in about 25 years.............

None other than the DAVE CLARK FIVE.  That was their big ballad... they're
probably more well known for there "stomp" type music ie. "Glad All Over" and
"Bits and Pieces."  Unfortunately, none of their music has been reissued (!!!)

She had a trio called "Chunky, Novi and Ernie" which did a few recordings for
Warner Bros. in the seventies.  She later released a solo called "Lauren Wood"
(how apt!) also for Warners....hmm, maybe late 70s, early 80s.  Since then, I
dunno...

By the way, Lauren was "Chunky".

Please, let's not have another "all time top ten" fiasco.
Explain your reasons!

As for my shameful confession, it's Pavarotti.  Well actually I'm
not at all ashamed, but if you had asked me a few years ago if
I would be whistling "O Sole Mio" or a tune from La Boheme, I would
have thought you crazy; horizontally large men singing in quavering
voices are not my cup of tea.  However, ever since a fortuitous
Christmas stocking stuffer and a couple of "forced" listening sessions,
it's been "Ciao Luciano, come stai" on a regular basis.

Let's face it, this guy can sing. An apparently effortless and
clear voice without the overdone vibrato that I always used
to associate with Opera.  And when you listen to him singing
"O Sole Mio", you are momentarily transported under the glorious
mediterranean sun of Naples.  Unfortunately he is not immune
to slight lapses in taste, such as the cheesy "Funiculi - Funicula"
and a rather banale "La donna e` mobile".

Do I really have to? I don't think you really read my post - I didn't
claim they were the BEST jazz bassists, merely that I thought they must be 
famous because I'm familiar with them. If I took the time to write about
each one and what they played on it would have taken me ages and the
post would have been really long. If I was that motivated I'd be writing 
for a magazine or something... Which ones haven't you heard of? Perhaps
I can elaborate a bit on those.   

>Also, how can this be the 10 best jazz bassists of all time, without having
>included a single one from the band Yes?

I TOLD YOU, IT'S NOT A TOP TEN OF ALL TIME! OR A BEST OF!  If it was I would 
have said so, and I would have included that guy from the Nat King Cole Trio. 
I almost included Percy Jones and Tony Levin. I think that maybe Tony   
Levin toured with Yes once. But he's not really a jazz bassist, even 
though he plays on some BLUE MONTREAUX jazz/fusion thing I have. And 
Percy, though one of my favorites, plays FUSION, not JAZZ. We can do
another list of TOP TEN FAMOUS FUSION BASSISTS in a week or two, 
or maybe when the new semester starts so more people can post their
lists too. Maybe you should read what you follow up to a little more
carefully before jumping all over people. Go do your own list of
TOP TEN YES BASSISTS if that's what you want, I wanna talk JAZZ!

Uh-uh. Rubber won't do it. The best thing I've used is cork. Yes, that funny
spongy stuff you throw away after you've emptied the chablis!

Audio engineers swear by the stuff - so do large industrial concerns, printing
outfits and tugboat operators (eh?).

Contact some of your local wood suppliers, see if they know where they can
source a sheet of compound cork, preferably no less that 1.5" thick. And it
doesn't need to be any larger than the piano itself. Cork feet will help, but
not as much as a sheet of it would.

Don't put drapes on the piano, put them around the room. Try and deaden the
room's acoustics somehow by adding as much soft furnishings (heavy curtains,
shag pile carpets, man-eating sofas or several Comfy Chairs <tm: Monty Python>)
as the room will comfortably hold.

In a pinch, buy some felt underlay from a second-hand carpet dealer and tack it
to your largest flat wall.

Have you listened to Penderecki yet?
Try "Utrenya" in the series of CDs 
released by Polski Nagrania (or something
like that- I don't have the disk here).
Also, Part and Penderecki remind me (in 
their use of choir) of the sort of music
played by Hilliard Ensemble and Tallis Scholars.
You may want to try Hilliard's Ockhegehm.  Come to think of it, that's who does the
vocals on "Misere", right?  Also check out
Tallis SCholars' Josquin and Tallis' "Spem in Alium".  

Finally, you owe it to yourself to listen to 
Havergal Brian's First, or "Gothic" symphony.
There's only one recording widely available
and it's on the Marco Polo label.  When you
see how many musicians it takes to perform this 
piece, you'll see why its not performed often.
