Super awesome choice! I havent herd that in a while. It brings back memories.............my name is Sue. how do you do? now you're gonna die!
Jenn, in addition to the great Coltrane here, I've always loved the Eric Dolphy solo on Spiritual. He plays the bass clarinet like he was preaching a sermon - beautiful! I've never gotten tired of this amazing performance....Speaking of Dolphy, I highly recommend Last Date in which he plays alto, flute and bass clarinet to absolute perfection - one of his last performances, with an excellent European rhythm section, before he died way too young at 36. (I should listen to that one again soon. I'm a former jazz musician and I deeply admired Eric's playing.) As for Coltrane, he took the tenor to another dimension, and players are still trying to catch up with him after more than 40 years.
Funny Coltrane and Dolphy would come up. I used the Village Vanguard shows in response to something chronic posted in the Beatles Box thread.
Poptop; I am also an ex-jazz musician. Upright bass in my case (although I would like to think that as an old man, I would still be one someday). Back in the mid-90s, I worked my ass off to be able to play in the Boston jazz scene, if only mostly functions, as opposed to established jazz clubs. Made a fair bit of money (considering I was working a 40-hour week doing science also), but really burnt out on it. The music business is perhaps one of the ugliest animals around. Talk about dealing with the dregs of society. And I don't mean the musicians; I mean the audiences. I was fortunate enough to deal with booking people who were generally very fair and human. The folks in the crowd generally had no idea what that meant.
But I love me some Coltrane with Dolphy. Uh huh.

I am! I started with Rubber Soul yesterday, and today it's Revolver. I plan to go through all their albums...once again. It was all the talk about the new remastered albums that inspired me...:)

Bukfan: That may happen, since they also said that only 10,000 sets would be made, and then they have backed off from that and have announced more. But, I wouldn't hold my breath. Sorry to say.

I would bet that the mono remasters will never see individual release, mainly because putting them out there would just create consumer confusion. If there are two or three versions of Sgt. Pepper sitting on the shelf, most people are going to grab the cheapest one anyway. Only one freak out of 1000 will be flipping through the rack looking for the MONO label across the top.
Also, maybe more importantly, based on the prices of the boxes the mono discs would retail for about $19.99 as opposed to the $12.99 they ask for the stereo versions. If I'm a retailer I'm not going to devote shelf space to something that is likely going to sit there and collect dust.

I can't resist The Resistance!
This one has my preference, with a famous aria in the middle of it :
Muse - (+ Mon Ceur S'ouvre A Ta Voix) (Album Version)
Bellamy singing in French... my dream comes true. :p
Nervas, I think that I have already read your signature somewhere... probably in Dee Dee's autobiography. I have pleasant memories of it, I don't know if he was a fan of Bukowski (don't remember having seen Hank quoted) but I found some similarities with this latter in Dee Dee's style.

The first official video clip is out now from this album! It's for :
The teddy bears' uprising, hahaha !
That song is exactly representative of something I like less and less in Muse : the lyrics. Since Black Holes and Revelations, most of them are dealing with the same theme : "They're oppressing us, They're debasing us, They're slowly killing us. Stop now ! Let's Unite, let's Resist, let's Fight ! "
It could be interesting if they were deeper than that. I sometimes have the feeling to hear the words of a revolted teenager who's just read 1984.

Abord the Yorikke!
Listening to The Dandy Warhols Come Down,
love their energy, always makes me feel like dancing, loud of course.

This may be my favorite live performance of anything:

No viddy, but this is all about the music. You can find other performances with video content if you search "Visions of Johanna." For example, this sample from Scorse's film, No Direction Home:

In this last one, you can see how much he values the enuncitation of the words.
