yeah, I have those LPs -- very strong. Though at this point the reissue market is bloated, those albums are certainly deserving.

If this CD set does not include the two missing tracks, I'm good with just keeping the 2005 2-CD set, which otherwise IMO is a perfect reissue.

John Stowell - Golden Delicious (Inner City, 1977) with Claudio Roditi, Jim McNeely, Mike Richmond, Billy Hart, and Dom Um Romao

I fully agree with both of your points, thanks!

I've been waiting for this compilation to be released again so that Blue Note could finally rectify the missing last two tracks from these sessions ("Cry Me A River" & "Uptght"), which have only been released on a rare Japanese CD titled, "From Hackensack to Englewood Cliffs". Michael Cuscuna once told me that they missed those two tracks when he did the Mosaic box in 1987 and again when they re-did it for the Connoisseur 2CD release in 2005 but that he would try to get them out in the future. Looks like they missed them again. To be honest, I think the 2005 2-CD Connoisseur set was supposed to have these two tracks but someone screwed up during the mastering process and no one pulled that master.

Since I don't have the Mosaic (or the 2005 BN release), I might be in on the game for the 2-CD set.

Yes - I have these but still would like them as originally recorded. Besides that, the playing time would make it an LP issue just as well.

Nice! Reminds me of Percy France's saxophone interludes for a series of Mike Hammer books-on-tape that were released from about 1988-92, except that he never got more than about 28 seconds of playing time, on the out-credits. Subscribing for sure. Here's a direct link to the page: https://www.youtube.com/@JazzfromDetroitFilm

An official release of some of the live early-1960s material that Frank Tiberi recorded.

Yes. This!

👍 Now:

Steve Lacy With Don Cherry: Evidence. Prestige/New Jazz OJCCD-1735-2 (NJ-8271) [US s.d.]

Denon is sitting on a lot of music which should be reissued, including some great 70's live Max Roach with Billy Harper.

@mikeweil. Good call, that's the session that got Alice's overdubs for the Infinity album.

I do love Ike but can't say I pull this out very often - the short playing times and not really the greatest organ behind him. I don't see this being a big seller but what do I know.

Didn't know about the expanded reissue, thanks for the hint. Only had the Blue Moon reissue. Found a cheap copy from a German discogs seller and jumped at it. 😊

Various: Darmstadt Aural Documents Box 1 - Composers – Conductors. NEOS 11060 [Germany 2010]

Modern bossa with Miho’s gentle sweet singing and a small jazzy combo with great arrangements. I have their follow up release as well.

👍 - both ...

Cool, rainy morning. Was a tiring day yesterday, fixed the motorized insulated blind on the main living room window, augured out a non-draining bath tub, and unsuccessfully attempted to fix the dryer–three things going wrong at once. I’m feeling like just melting into the chair this morning. Starting off with Grateful Dead, “Enjoying the Ride” box set, Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center, Oakland, CA (11/21/85) disc 2 Then on to. . .. Les McCann “Never A Dull Moment! Live From Coast To Coast (1966-1967)” Resonance Records 3 cd set, disc 3
