Thanks. News to me. It'll probably get shown around here and I intend to see it.

Steve Rodby has been around for a while: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Rodby Danny Spencer was the drummer on the Kenny Cox Blue Note sides. Steve Rodby has been around for a while: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Rodby

I just realized that the International Phonograph reissue of this came out *15* years ago. Damn, time doesn't fly, it's more like now you see it, now you don't.

And by a bass player I've never heard off. But I'm also all in anyways! The bigger fear for me is the drum solos.

No non-USA sellers are good options for us right now due to tariff craziness on top of already greatly increased shipping costs. I used to order from JazzMessengers fairly regularly several years ago - they do a great job and had excellent prices.

Here's hoping for as complete a box as possible. I am not excited about buying excerpts, only to have a larger set issues a year later.

Thanks, Romualdo! I actually downloaded at lot of that first session somewhere online. I can't remember where. I don't have any of the second session, where I presume the pending Giant Steps and Satellite are coming from.

Experience with the label suggests the CD will turn out to be a CD-R. But everybody please remember, the label is a nonprofit organization.

Those are all four of the bigger cities I’ve lived in throughout my life (well, Pittsburgh starting in a few weeks). But rather than devoting an entire topic to Pittsburgh only (which there don’t seem to be dozens of examples from Pittsburgh alone) — I thought I’d go for our four cities in one thread. How many can we come up with?? The landmarks can be obscure, and don’t have to be incredibly well known — but outdoor shots that include buildings, venues, what-have-you — or best of all, entire city-scapes. Who knows — maybe I’ll decide to track down physical copies of the very best example from each city — and put framed copies of the covers in a hallway in our new place in Pittsburgh.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m unquestionably ALL in on getting this on CD. But with a total of 5(!) tunes that are all 22+ minutes each — by just a quartet (Joe + piano trio) — that’s gotta mean a LOTTA bass solos.

Resonance's facebook page has this: So at least there will be a cd version which presumably won't break the bank.
