LF: Bill Evans the Secret Sessions
tranemonk replied to tranemonk's topic in Offering and Looking For...
Replied via PM. Thanks in advance. -
Hi.. I had this box a long time ago and sold it. I thought I had digitized it before I sold it but I was apparently wrong. I'm considering buying the set again... Anybody got a GOOD copy for sale? thanks.

Another reason to dislike motorcycles... -
They didn't give me a visual. I'm thinking more like these god-awful Hip-o-Select boxes (the packaging and price which I can't stand). Bound as in like the original Miles Columbia sets? If so, that should give many people plenty more to whine about.
-
I don't think that's the reason. I got an email from them yesterday. They said it was because they were changing the packaging to make it a bound box with cd sleeves. That's the reason for the production delay. I did listen to one of the new tracks which sounds fantastic. I just hope the CD's run 70-80 minutes each not 40-50 like the original cd.

thanks for the heads up! This is a very good video of the release... I'm really looking forward to it... Might have to play some Bill this afternoon.... http://www.youtube.c...h?v=innDU9rCf0Y

I have the CD. I liked it a lot. Nice to hear Anita from that era.

Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers at the Free Trade Hall 1961
tranemonk replied to BillF's topic in New Releases
Okay.... Is this being released? -
You raise good points JS... But my concern for example is Maria Schneider's latest. You can pay $20 for the CD and then the next price point is $350.00 To me that's ridiculous! I love her stuff, have all of her CD's but there's no way I would or could give her $350. Previously for other projects she had other pricing options (e.g., $40, etc.). I'm happy to support the concept. I've probably bought over a 15 CDs from artistshare BUT they have got to have more intermediate (modest) funding options. Like Virginia Mayhew (renmarecordings.com) did the same thing (along with other artists who use kickstarter). I gave her $50 since I love her stuff. I got listed on the CD which was great. The max I would give for almost any artist would be $100. Jim Hall's $75 was a stretch and I only did that cause I have the original CD. I'm totally into supporting the artists directly. I just think (given this economy especially) it's not fair to those of us who don't have $350 to limit our participation to two options.
-
I did cave in on the $75. I was in a spend happy mood then... You are right though... Their price scheme has gotten too high. I will be buying very few new releases from them in the future. I'll get the new Maria Schneider but that's probably it for a long time.

thanks for the heads up.... You might want to share this with Laurie Pepper...

They're coming back to Boston in June again... This time I hope to get there.

How many live jazz shows have you seen in your life?
tranemonk replied to Hardbopjazz's topic in Live Shows & Festivals
No clue... Started going to gigs in the late 1980s.. and went to a LOT more when I was single and not a parent.... If I had to guess... two to three hundred.... These days maybe I get to go to 6-10 a year... Maybe... -
Black Saint/Soul Note Box Sets
tranemonk replied to romualdo's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I just ordered the World Saxophone Quartet set and last week the Don Pullen... I know these just got announced and came out but does anyone have any idea as to what the next set might be???? Which artists are left who had a lot of BS/SN recordings? Thanks. -
of course I voted for the 6cd set!
-
Thanks Sue... Please do work with Mosaic to get this out in a boxed set... The liner notes would probably be a hoot...

Wolfgang's Vault has Ellington in 1970

A 60 minute Bill Evans set is on sale today for $5... -
Yea my sister got her one after the last fall. It sucks that we all have this problem and there's no easy fixes. She needs a medical alert device and plan. My mother has one, and before she had full time aides she was rescued at least three times after falls--the company gets the notification and they send out local emergency services. There are a number of providers. I think my mother might have this one: http://www1.lifestation.com/
