Jerry Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Does anyone know if they are going to include any of the second Japanese concert with Sam Rivers? I'd love to hear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertrand Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 (edited) Will most of this material be out on separate CDs as they usually are? 4 and 5 would be a 2-CD set, and 6 and 7 could be available each on their own. 1-3 might be tricky; they would probably have to leave out some tracks from Seven Steps, and make Europe a 2-CD set. I really don't like the boxes (price and packaging). I really am mostly interested in Tokyo and Berlin, and if they come out as stand-alone CDs, I could get 'em at Tower or Borders' for $8-$9. I would consider the others later. I don't need every rehearsal take out there. I would be upset if the extra track from Berlin is AWOL, however - it should not have to be. Bertrand.

jazzbo Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Doesn't look as if we have any "insiders" here! Maybe you should post this at audioasylum.com and see if Greg has heard anything from "indno" Belden about these being released on cd (but ask first about SACD release to get his attention!)

Jerry, I don't think they are including the second Sam Rivers concert, which is too bad... only the MILES IN TOKYO material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My source is sticking with "Fall of 2004" and hasn't heard otherwise. FWIW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
