  1. These are the ones from the '60s (see here). Any thoughts on those? (FWIW, the sound in this set is said to be excellent, belying it's vintage, which you can sort of tell in the AMG samples.) The sound was very good on the '60s recordings and these are the better versions. Just not my cup of tea.
  2. Not a fan of the Arrau / Philips / Beethoven recordings. There are multiple recordings and the later the worst (IMHO). The DG Gilels Beethoven never caught my attention but I welcome other viewpoints.
  3. In the mid '70s UA pressed a bunch of '10 and '12 inch lps for shipment to Japan. The "leftovers" were sold as cutouts in the US. I had 'em all at one point. All I have left are the pressings of 5036 - Urbie Green, 5059/5060 - Best From the West and 5066 - Hank Mobley Quartet.
  4. Rehab time? When was it I heard that last? Member of Congress? Actor? BB poster? ???
  5. Sorry, I missed the '67 mention for this item. Can you help me out? When I went to work at the Jazz Record Mart in 1966 they had bootleg, Chinese lps of the BN Messengers in the used bin.
  6. shit
  7. Always figured he'd generate orphans.
  8. Go back to the school, try the number on every locker, steal the shit and go away.
  9. If you download the Google toolbar, it has spell check and a handy pop-up blocker that allows you to disable it for specific sites.
  10. Too bad "Thoughtful" and "Duquility" are missing. All seven solos from that date should be reissued together somewhere. They are included on "One-Upmanship" reissue: http://www.enjarecords.com/cd.php?nr=ENJ-2092 I'm aware of that. I just think they should be together, as originally intended.

  12. Please...................
  13. I am amazed.
  14. My answer is no. This has been reissued and has been available for download. Better to leave it in an "archive".
  15. Thanks for the kind message. I only stated the truth from my perspective. This thread was started today. Should I have done something else? Is it really important to you I know what's in your archives?
  16. What a wonderful concept. My father watched the "drug" edtion of the PBS "history" and decided he was rignt and I had wasted my life on "drug addicts". Go for it Mr Southern Indiana.
  17. The only "real deal" is your approach to music. If you are a "music" fan, sound/styles don't count. If you are into the music as a social/nostalgia thing, there is another standard. We have both here. No need to choose sides. We can tell.
  18. I have seen Jim with monkeys and am sworn to silence. That's the only reason I'm not banned.
  19. Sal Mosca Music (Interplay 7712).
  20. Saxes Inc was reviewed by Ira. BTW, in another thread I pointed out DB gave Ellington's In Orbit 2.5 stars. You gotta know the reviewers, the context and the music. Who were the best of the reviewers in that era? Who are the best since then? The real answer is "who matches up with my tastes most often". One thing you might not think of is the reviewer's friendship with the artist or producer. So, they are all good if you know your shit.
