Sheesh... Well, yeah, the cover art sucks and the "liner notes" blow, but you have to admit that some of the music most certainly doesn't suck or blow. Whether it's worth two or three times list price is another matter. Maybe the Rahsaans... No, definitely the Rahsaans!

But, even if I had it, I sure as shootin' wouldn't fork over five-hundred smackers for them either.

Ironically, I stumbled across some ten year old JazzTimes cleaning yesterday and there was a big ad for 32 Jazz "Now at Best Buy!!! $6.99!!!" :D

Sure, ten years ago it was $6.99. And indeed I picked up a used copy 3 years or so at $6.99. But the letters OOP do induce a fever trance in some people. And relatively few people bought 32 Jazz issues so when they went OOP they really were scarce.

I've seen some crazy prices on the OJCs that were dropped by the new owners, though here at least nearly everything in the OJC series is still on emusic. And the fact that everything was kept in print for so long tends to keep the prices down.
