  1. Interesting.... Need more info though.
  2. Let me know if you find a Bandcamp link. I haven't been able to. The Tatum and Sonny are up for preorder, which I did.
  3. This one got my attention after I looked at it more... https://lydialiebman.com/index.php/2024/02/15/new-release-cannonball-adderley-burnin-in-bordeaux-live-in-france-1969-poppin-in-paris-live-at-lolympia-1972-record-store-day-exclusives-out-april-20-cd-digita/ This Record Store Day, Elemental Music will launch a pair of previously unreleased recordings by alto saxophone giant Cannonball Adderley, recorded Live in France. Burnin’ in Bordeaux (1969) and Poppin’ in Paris (1972), both special edition, double 180-gram LP sets will release exclusively for RSD on April 20, 2024. On April 26, the recordings will be available as deluxe, double CD sets, and digitally.
  4. Thanks for the list. I'm hoping NONE of these are vinyl-only releases. I'm completely in on Sonny, Yusuf, and probably the Mal Waldron. The Nat Cole is an absolute.. Here's a little more info I found on that one. https://desertlocalnews.com/news/index/view/nat-king-cole-live-at-the-blue-note-chicago-set-for-record-store-day-first-never-before-heard-live-collection-out-from-iconic-artists-group
  5. I can't seem to find any link on Bandcamp or anywhere yet.
  6. Zev is killing me with these releases... Why is he putting these out while I'm waiting on my tax refund....??? Uggh... 😕
  7. Hmmm.... I have to think about this one... Maybe.. probably....
  8. Love it... Zev is getting some cash from me with these upcoming Sonny, Art and now Yusef releases.
  9. Clearly I’m in the minority…but that’s why we listen… We can’t all like the same thing and we’d be in trouble if we did.
  10. WTF is it with these vinyl-only releases of stuff that's never been out before?... It's bugging me for those of us who don't want to go back to 1972....
  11. I saw Mary Halvorson and Amaryllis quintet last night in Cambridge MA. I was interested as to why she gets so much praise. I had two of her records and was primarily curious. The place was packed, surprisingly with 90% of the people over 50. I expected her audience would be the much younger Berklee College of Music crowd, especially since the tickets weren't that expensive. After a 90-minute set, I wasn't particularly impressed. It was fine. As my college daughter often says - it was meh... Excellent technical proficiency. One tune I liked a lot - sounded like Miles at the Cellar Door. But overall I wasn't moved. I didn't feel anything. Based on her records, it was largely what I expected.
  12. Did you see her live? I've only caught Youtube glimpses. I did grab her first release on that label from Itunes a few days and was very impressed.
  13. Thanks for the tip. There are a few titles I'm interested in that I might have to grab then. https://daynastephens.bandcamp.com/album/closer-than-we-think https://jihyeleeorchestra.bandcamp.com/album/daring-mind https://oneforall.bandcamp.com/album/big-george
  14. Are you going? I'd love to get a review if you are.
  15. I went to see these guys years ago (I mean in the way back machine) and I liked them a lot. I had never heard of them before. https://newwestguitar.com/music
  16. I listened to one track on Bandcamp. I generally have not been able to get into her work. This one sounded a little different so I preordered. We'll see. I'm not a convert yet.
  17. She was everywhere in the 90s. The only info I can track down about her is her website. From what I can gather she opened up a jazz club and maybe a record label. I tried looking at her Twitter account. The only thing there is an odd, cryptic like about Robert Kennedy's presidential campaign. I haven't seen her perform live in a long time. Does anybody have any other info?
  18. Of the many OP records, I've often thought this was the best....
  19. I just want my live, unreleased Betty Carter set. Let me have that and I will be quiet....
  20. Charles McPherson @ Newport Jazz Festival, Immanuel Wilkins Quartet @ Regattabar, Cambridge, and surprisingly Diana Krall at Newport Jazz Festival. I hadn't seen her in a decade and forgot how different she sounds from most other singers today.
  21. Unfortunately, as I think the OP has articulated there is no simple, super reliable solution to this problem (at least I don't think there is). I had Backblaze and I canceled it because I found the interface clunky and confusing and the backup was god awful slow (and I have a fast network at home). I'm on a Mac and have had a few digital disasters so I just gave up and am paying Apple to keep my stuff in the cloud. I pay for a monthly music subscription to an external spinning drive and an SSD. I considered a NAS but I didn't have the patience to figure it out. Please let us know if you come up with a simple, reliable solution.
  22. I didn't mean anything in particular. I think it was in reference to earlier posts seemingly being lukewarm to all the new releases. I like it as who knows how many of those artists would be getting recorded otherwise. Hope that makes sense.
