Now wait, wait: we're misusing the model here. A group of lions is a "pride of lions" - so a group of jazz snobs would be a "[blank] of jazz snobs." We're doubling up on the descriptors. Actually, I think it should be a "[blank] of nihilist minimalists" (not for jazz snobs - for nihilist minimalists). - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2006 09:48:58 -0700 From: "Spotted Eagle Ray" Subject: Re: smoking the corner of an album sleeve On 7/20/06, 2fs wrote: > > > Now wait, wait: we're misusing the model here.

My fault-- I started doing that because I thought that using appropriate bird names (jayhawks, seagulls) would be funny. I know, think again. - -SER ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2006 13:08:59 -0400 From: "Bachman, Michael" Subject: RE: smoking the corner of an album sleeve >> NP Gram Parsons - The Complete Reprise Sessions SER came back with: >Oooh, how's that going for you? Great. Disc 1, GP with added radio interviews and a Love Hurts and Sin City with Gram and Emmylou from the same radio session. Disc 2 Grievous Angel with a Gram interview and instrumental Return of The Grievous Angel. Disc 3 contains the alternate takes from GP & Grievous Angel. Nice booklet of liner notes and photos. The infamous photo of Gram and Emmylou on Gram's Harley that was orignally going to the cover of Grievous Angel is still nowhere to be seen. Gram's widow Gretchen hated that photo, and it will probably never see the light of day again after showing up in 1974 Rolling Stone article.
