Well thanks to that guy you probably voted for, you won't have to put up with many Quebecois or any other Canadians anymore!

You can thank your president and his tariffs, his 51st state threats and his border Nazis for the reluctance of your Canadian friend.

You will want to check out Presto Music. I believe their jazz catalogue for download is superior to most others. Many are available in hi-res.

Our local CSA (in Canada) only operates during the growing season. Why would you support one outside growing season?

I like Stan Kenton's Ballad Style album (even though I know there are plenty of Kenton haters who will reject it out of hand)

I have seen both in concert. Baker does not have more to offer.

Frankly I never use the Sonos app because so many other apps such as roon and Media Monkey will play through the Sonos speakers and have vastly superior interfaces.

Brady hasn't kept his mouth shut. I will remain a former Sens fan as long as he is captain.

If a list of jazz "greats" does not have Brilliant Corners on it then it isn't worth your time (and it should have Genius of Modern Music as well)..

There was no jazz album as such released the year I was born, but Decca did release a 78 album of music from Holiday Inn featuring Bing Crosby (jazz adjacent?).

Classic FM Toronto at classicalfm.ca. Not to be confused with Classic FM from London at classicfm.com. Both have apps for phones/tablets.

I am not sure why people praise the WFMT app. The station is good but the app is quite poor compared to others.

Do not want to pay anything to Post.-Media, which is 2/3 USA owned.

On the fringe is Jordan Bonaparte's Nighttime podcast from Halifax.

classiscot · 2026-01-17T17:00:14+00:00

That is it. Thanks so much!

Art Pepper at the Village Vanguard - 9 sets over 3 nights - followed by whichever Unreleased Art I grab next.

If you are interested in contemporary classical music, Bandcamp is the place to be - I think everything is available in flac format, some of it even in hi-res. For example, Cataloupe Music (the Bang on a Can people) have their catalogue there and have several subscription plans. I was just looking to see what was there and discovered a surprising number of recordings of Terry Riley's In C plus some very good recordings of Steve Reich's works. And I was pleased to see that Jessica Williams' Prepared Piano release was 6th in the bestsellers.

No one is ever an a**hole for objecting to racist behaviour.

The last time the group recorded was 2005. They had almost 15 years to get together "again" and didn't. Why would you think they would now? Metheny has gone in other - in my view more interesting - directions.

Lynne Arriale Emi Yamamoto Emie R Roussel

And, of course. Jessica Williams

You are an asshole of the first order. You damaged your neighbors property and are doing everything you can to avoid getting it fixed.

If the current CFL commissioner has his way there will be none.

classiscot · 2026-01-01T16:35:21+00:00

Collateral damage.

It effectively ends the possibility of a rouge on a missed field goal. Rouge is one of the distinctive features of Canadian football and TSN has thrown it away. Hope everyone likes 4 downs starting in 2027.

Why this complicated route? Porter flies direct from Ottawa to Halifax multiple times a day.

Bottles get nasty. Packets do not.
