I got all these CDs from the library in a series The Cradle of Jazz: Teagarden, Noone, Edmund Hall, oh there's all kinds of terrific stuff that was done in the 30's as a developement onto the original dixieland jazz of the 20's. It's a very complex polyphonic and polyrythmic style that was big in Chicago. The talent in those days was phenomenal! The sophistication catches you by suprise and takes your breath away.

You can't beat Armstrong/Dodds/Hardin. Struttin' With Some Barbecue, Once In A While, Hotter Than That: timeless brilliance and definitely in my Victrola. I also have spare springs http://www.antiquephono.com/vicmotor.htm

A Victrola with spare springs! Now that's what I call prepared. Chicago in the 20's and 30's was a musical renaissance. Funded by bootleg liquor and the Capone brothers. Everybody was on the take, city government corrupt from top to bottom and oh how those musicians thrived!

Here are some of the names of the jazz greats from the 20's and 30's. Their recordings are clear and rich sounding Once you really poke your head into this aesthetic realm you won't want to come out for a while! Jack Teagarden, Django Reinhardt (European but he played with all these American guys), Bud Freeman, Lu Watters, Mezz Mezzrow, George Wettling, Jabbo Smith, Wild Bill Davison, Muggsy Spanier, Jimmie Noone, Eddie Condon. What words? tight, complex, intensely rythmic, wildly energetic in an intellectually satisfying controlled way. These guys knew their craft.

George Wettling has a version of this one with polyphonics to rival Bach.-

I don't know about the Victrola, but I'm thinking a hand-crank wind-up cd player might be good to have for the chronic brownouts. Suppose it takes a long time for the disaster to play out and we have to live with intermittant power as a way of life for years. Music would be nice.A postpeak survival necessity!

yes, please remove the counter. peak oil really doesn't lend itself to setting an exact date. deffeyes was being slightly tongue in cheeck when he said thanksgiving day 2005 - he knows that peak oil might not even happen for another few years.
any casual visitor to hear will take a look at the clock and think the site is full of end of the world weirdos.
and, as has been said, NOTHING will happen when the clock runs down - it'll be Y2K all over again.
Cant you put the oil price up instead?

We did add an oil futures block on our homepage.
Only registered members see the counter... it does not appear to guests.
The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.
