A cheaper text format?
It was what I thought it might be.. rather used up loose leaf text, However, it met the need in a cost-effective way. So, I am not complaining. One can only recycle those so many times, no?

This is my third review of the day for a how-to book on advanced crochet stitches.

My most used reference
The company for which I work provided me with my copy of this book. It has been one of my main tools for my job, which is developing processes with integrated governance and management objectives.<br /><br />What makes this book so invaluable to my job is how clearly the objectives are described, and the tables that pr...

Pragmatic with real world advice and insights
I was provided a copy of the book by the company for which I work. My job mainly involves designing processes and integrating governance and management controls. I am not normally called upon to design end-to-end IT governance solutions, but for the subset of the larger scope that my job entails, the approach outlined ...

Clearly describes what ITIL 4 is all about
The company for which I work provided me with this book. I've been involved with ITIL since the mid 1990s and have evolved with it. Version 4 is a major change, with a focus on value, and this book explains it exceptionally well. In fact, this is probably the best ITIL publication ever, especially the clarity with whic...

Good info wrapped in some fluff
The company for which I work provided me with a copy of this book. I am one of the TBM (and CPIC) consulting managers, so I already had a background in the subject matter.<br /><br />I'll get the negative out of the way: parts of this book read like an infomercial for TBM. It detracted from some excellent information t...

Effective and especially useful for folks who only occasionally produce charts
I received this book two months ago as a free review copy from the publisher. During that time I have frequently referred to it during a consulting engagement that required some novel ways to visually present data to executive management. While I am very experienced (and well versed) in transforming data into informati...

Well thought out and on the mark
I received a free review copy of this book. Frankly, Eric Sedensky's September 19, 2015 review nails all of the salient points, so I will confine my review to how the book has helped me and why I recommend it to fellow musicians.<br /><br />First, you do not need to read music (although it sure helps). My reading ski...

Stands the test of time. Bebop blended with hard bop
Listen to the sound samples here:[[ASIN:B0000047CZ Sonny Side Up]] (where you will also find the track list). The sound samples give a taste, but not the whole story. For example, you will not get a sense of how track 3 unfolds because there is no way a few seconds of the sample will convey the 3:19 intro played mainly...

One of my favorite Peterson solo albums
This album is relatively short at 42:02, but the music is Peterson at his best. While I love his playing in a trio setting, especially with Ray Brown on bass and either Herb Ellis on guitar or Ed Thigpen on drums, this solo album allows him to stand out and shine. And that he does.<br /><br />Listen to the sound sample...

While there are other versions of this album available this particular Universal Japan release has excellent sound quality.

Not standard fare for Monk, but superb
I first heard this album fifty years ago in 1965 and recall being somewhat disappointed because I was deeper into Monk's own compositions and style at the time. Revisiting this decades later and I have come to appreciate the music. It's still Monk, but he was nudged to be a bit more commercial on this album (it was hi...

I made three passes through this very short book and each time discovered something new. Therein lies the power of the story and the lessons it provides. One pass revealed the obvious: there is music in every day sounds - all you have to do is listen for it.<br /><br />The second pass cleverly implied that if you are i...

Probably the best DVD in this set is [[ASIN:B00064YTKM Tommy Igoe Groove Essentials 1.0]] because even a beginner will get something out of it. More importantly, those of us who have been playing for years will also learn a thing or two. Igoe painstakingly discusses how parts of the 46 grooves presented in this DVD are...

This book does what it claims, but goes well beyond that for some of us. I purchased it on the recommendation of a friend because I have poor sight reading skills and he said it would improve them.

Excellent album from the Prestige era and superior sound quality
This album is from my favorite era (mid 1950s recordings from Prestige). The line-up for the first two tracks is a little different from the bulk of the album and the overall feel of those tracks is discernably different as well. Or to my ears anyway. Davis' trumpet is in the front line along with Milt Jackson's vibrap...

This is indeed an excellent collection of some of LaFaro's live work in 1958. Most of the tracks are from a Los Angeles TV show titled Stars of Jazz and hosted by Bobby Troupe. The station for those tracks was KABC-TV. Three are from other sources (two from a live performance in San Francisco and one from a recording m...

Outstanding album of early Jimmy Smith live
Organs were not mainstream in 1957 when this live album was recorded over the course of two night at the Manhattan Towers in New York City on February 11 and 12.<br /><br />Because it's live and because of the personnel on two of the three tracks this is 27:10 minutes of pure energy. And by comment about personnel on t...

Afro-Cuban music with some jazz giants in the ensemble
Aside from being a staunch Herbie Mann fan as well as a Machito fan this album stands out for a few other reasons.

While there are none on this page nearly all of the tracks are also on a...

The key differences between the two albums are this one is billed as the Dave Brubeck Quartet + 2 with a guitar...
