Thanx!

My most recent order (a 2 SACD Miles Davis set) from cdjapan will arrive tomorrow, shipped on Saturday, via FEEDEX. I paid "fees" for it, so shouldn't need to pay again.

Verve MV 2651 St (Japan 1979) - Sammy Davis & Count Basie " Our Shining Hour" - rec. 1964

I got my order from Korea yesterday. Everything went smoothly. Delivered without any additional payments needed. Nothing on the package indicated it had tariffs or anything so I’m not sure how my payments broke down but I got everything so I’m happy.

Done.

Can some mod please correct the title of this thread? Pleeeze! As it is now, this must hurt the eyes of any French-speaking folks around here. It's "Souffle Continu". Just like some have written correctly in their recent posts.

Dusty Groove has this up for preorder, late November ETA

👍

Yeah, without either of those two guys, the jazz part is gone, and all you get are folk songs.

I bought that album as soon as it was out. Saw them live when the second or third was out, neither Thompson nor Terry Cox. The jazzy groove was missing.

“Miles Davis '55 The Prestige Recordings” Concord 2 cd set, disc 2

👍 😁 Now playing Verve MV 2636 St (Japan 1979) - Ella Fitzgerald " Ella In Hollywood" - rec. 1961

Mick Ronson exploded into my world when “The Man who Sold the World” came out–he was the first ROCK guitarist that excited me after Hendrix. This is a reissue/remix cd featuring Bowie’s intended title and cover.

A cool morning, a bit warmer than yesterday. Memphis the new dog has just eaten and is chilling on the bed. I finished the last few tracks of the excellent promo sampler of Keith Jarrett’s Blue Note box set on ECM. A great selection of killer performances! I didn’t have time to listen to the entire disc yesterday evening. Now I am playing disc V1 of “Woody Shaw The Complete Muse Sessions” from Mosaic Records. Some great Cedar Walton!

50th Anniversary box

I don't have the 7 disk box of original Pentangle albums, but I have the other 2. Through the Ages is great! The BBC box was a little disappointing in that some of the recordings aren't very good, but I'm glad I have it anyway. All the original members are on Open the Door, except for Renbourn. Danny left after that.
