Guess I was a latecomer... 😉 2004

I'm taking a pass on this one and instead got the Byas, in part based on the recommendations from this board. Thanks, y'all. Happy Holidays to all.

Okay, I'm going to ask another stupid question... Just out of curiosity (if anyone knows), why is there no Ellington on this set?

Are those public domain? I'm assuming have all the jazz ones been released?

Thanks. That's very helpful... Was Ellington the only one who did the Treasury Shows? I have all of those volumes and really like them.

Kind of/maybe a stupid question... but were V-disc sessions all limited by the 3-minute recording windows (of the LP/tech at the time)? I have all the Storyville Ellington Treasury Shows (what was the relationship between the Treasury Shows and V-Discs?), and I vaguely remember that quite a few of those tracks were longer. I'm a bit on the fence with this set... Recording lengths might help. I know the discography will be up when it's ready for preorder, but I'm kinda curious.

Is it my imagination, or is this a new re-issue? https://milesdavisstore.com/products/the-complete-plugged-nickel-live-1965-8-cd-box-set

This is a really good record. First CD I have of this guy. I'll have to check out some more.

I was just thinking the same thing. Clearly, some of you know something others of us don't. So what's the deal?

Just saw this... thoughts? Opinions... I'm thinking I'm putting this on my buy list despite the song set being the same. https://www.importcds.com/bremen-1965/016728163422

Caught Kenny Barron and his trio last night at the Regattabar in Cambridge, MA. It was excellent. His drummer, Savannah Harris, was very impressive. It was an excellent band. He mentioned a funny story about when he played there with Stan Getz when the place opened 30+ years ago. I've been going there for a long time, but not that long.

I am so glad I got to see him 5-6 times before he basically retired. If I had to guess, he was in his late 60s/early 70s. He could still blow then. Great man! Is Lucille still alive?

I grabbed this as a pre-release. Very happy with it.

Consistent with the Bandcamp theme.... https://redrecords.bandcamp.com/album/live-at-umbria-jazz https://jimmygreene1.bandcamp.com/album/as-we-are-now https://aaronparksmusic.bandcamp.com/album/little-big https://aaronparksmusic.bandcamp.com/album/little-big-ii-dreams-of-a-mechanical-man

Good for you. Well done with the discipline... I don't have it.
