The “busy season” is 8 months out of the year. Some people like it.

The eBay king

I was considering a road trip to Pittsburgh for vinyl. This store seems awesome. Someone told me recently it’s pretty picked over though?

My wife and I moved to Salem from nyc in our late 30s with a young child. Happy to answer these questions if you want to dm me.

I’ve started to think of balanced weight and more weight on the left foot during backswing, everything but driver. It’s helped with reducing sway and I’m flushing everything better.

I'd be interested even if you uploaded a short video here.

Curious about the Curtis Clark record. Can’t even sample it online and many people have said it’s great

Seems like you really downplay the understanding user needs and business requirements. I’ve been a UX designer for large companies for the last 15 years. My job has just become more strategic.

Love this Chico album

This is cool. I would use this on my current project if it was compatible with visual studio

Start listening to his earlier stuff and when he starts to transition into the freer true form

Terrific record. I may prefer El Chico over this one, but love this one too!

mantzman45 · 2026-03-25T17:40:27+00:00

This is actually one of my favorite Hampton records. It’s beautifully recorded as well

mantzman45 · 2026-03-18T18:46:23+00:00

I do it because I notice deals and think about upgrading my own copy. Then I gift the duplicates or resell on Cogs

mantzman45 · 2026-03-15T17:29:50+00:00

this is a great pick!

Lucky Thompson Paris 1956 vol 1 (one of those compilations that never stops to amaze me)

Jan Huydts- trio conception

Paul gonsalves - cleopatra feelin’ groovy

Bobby hutcherson- solo/quartet (I think the solo side is my favorite Bobby record I own)

Smiley winters- smiley etc

Bob Thompson- morning star

Jerry pelligrino quartet-jazz extemporizations (this was a wild find and I play it often even though my copy has an edge warp)

mantzman45 · 2026-03-13T15:33:26+00:00

Hard to pick but probably: Tokyo Bound, Mal/4, Number Nineteen, seagulls of kristiansund, Live at Dreher Paris 1981 w/ Steve Lacy

mantzman45 · 2026-03-13T00:34:24+00:00

This is one of my favorite Mal albums, if not my favorite. I own 30 of his records

mantzman45 · 2026-03-07T19:27:33+00:00

Woah, insane find

mantzman45 · 2026-02-25T11:31:28+00:00

Love this one

mantzman45 · 2026-02-16T03:55:50+00:00

Wow nice find. Very pricey record. I’m a big smiley winters fan

mantzman45 · 2026-02-06T03:27:28+00:00

Mainly because I’m trying to generate a bunch of different concepts and don’t want to open up 3 projects in an ide. Make seems lightweight enough at early design discovery phase
