Thanks Brownie - Do you have this set? How's the sound quality? There's some interesting (critical but helpful) comments here... http://apileocole.alongthehall.com/chatter/chat1938.html http://apileocole.alongthehall.com/chatter/chat1938.html#session1

http://www.worldsrecords.com/cgi-bin/storeR.cgi?specific=itemcode&phrase=65202 Do you think this is a rip-off of the 3CD set Transcriptions set that came out a few years ago? This one - http://www.amazon.com/Transcriptions-Nat-King-Cole-Trio/dp/B000BM6AMY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1265754346&sr=8-1 Doesn't look the same... Anybody got any help on this one...? :mellow:

Duke Small Group Disc 7- Digital... instead of waisting my time watching that stupid football game... :tdown :tdown

thank you SIR... I was contemplating getting Never No Lament.. and then found this one... I think I'll go with the legit release... MUCHAS GRACIAS

uh Oh... I don't want to buy the same stuff twice.... Can someone (Lon???) confirm/clarify???

I'm thinking about getting this set... Does anyone have any info?? I know (assume) this was included in the 24CD RCA box.. but that's long gone... (and expensive)... Is this a good buy?? thanks

How and where did you pull that one off??? :unsure:

Anybody notice that Nimbus (out of the UK) has been reissuing a lot of 2CD sets of Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw and Duke... :excited: The Shaw seems to be "Last Recording Series.." (3 double CD's) I believe. http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8122139 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8043912 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7824427 The Goodman is a reissue of the Yale University Archives series... (They're up to Vol. 4) http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8122064 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8043913 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7904800 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7760988 The Ellington seems to be something called the "Great Concerts" series http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8122143 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8043911 http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7760991 I've got 2 of the Goodman and 1 of the Shaw. As most of these are future releases I'm going to TRY and grab them all as I missed then when they first came out. :party: Anybody got any thoughts? Any faves?

Yea that's it.. I got it a lot cheaper than $100.... Sounds like you have the Rhino/Warner UK edition: http://www.amazon.co...64719090&sr=1-1

(In the Car) Duke - The Reprise Studio Sessions DIsc 1... Hey I got a question for you guys... I was able to get this one in the long box format years after it went OOP... I've never seen a Mosaic in the long box format other than this one... What's the story with that???? :huh:

Digital Version of Duke's Reprise Sessions - Disc 1....

This really is a great thread... As I mentioned in my other post... Just ordered the Private Collection Vols. 6-10 as a box for $30.00.. :cool: I'm assuming it will be great.. not to mention that it's disappearing....

Ordered my copy @ Amazon for $26,99 along with Ellington the Private Collection Vols. 5-10 for another $29.... Not a bad take, huh???? :blush:

This is one of the few Mosaics I missed and am damn disappointed... :angry: About the only good thing is that I was able to track down a digital version of this and the Nat Cole box....

How much did you pay for it (if you don't mind my asking...) :unsure:

it's too difficult to come up with a top 10.. but here are some of my faves... (not in order..) 1. The Complete People Time Recordings 2. Mosaic - Bing 3. Lynne Arriale - Nuance 4. Joshua Redman Double Trio - Compass 5. Vijay Iyer Trio - Historicity 6. Keith Jarrett - Paris/London Testament 7. Tom Harrell - Prana Dance 8. Melody Gardot - My one and Only Thrill 9. Branford Marsalis - Metamorphosen 10. David "Fathead" Newman - The Blessing okay THAT'S A GOOD LIST... :tup :tup :excl:

Looks like they released some info on their site... http://www.hip-oselect.com/scr.public.product.asp?product_id=E44D5C7A-7659-429B-A07A-EE7E8EFD8DE3%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20&cat_id=D1A76E84-C7EF-42B5-A176-D09C914BB38D Sad... They just slapped a bunch of stuff together... Abbey deserves better.... :angry:

Just ordered the George Shearing/Mel Torme box for $23.00.... :crazy: :excited:

Call me when they get that puppy out... I'd settle for 2 TB... Still stuck at 160GB!

hmm... sounds intriguing... I don't have ANY of the liberty/riverside but I wonder which of the 80's albums??? I've got almost all of her Verve output from the late 80's/90's/2000's...

http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8106102 There's no info on hippo's website... I'm wondering what albums this set contains??? Personally I thought Abbey (and Betty Carter) boxed sets are LONG OVERDUE.... :wacko: but I'm really wondering what's in this set???

I am convinced there is NO logic to these things... Take for instance the 10CD Billie Holiday which was ONLY available overseas for $30... None of it makes sense... :crazy:

thanks for the catch!! I had to grab one... I Swear I DO NOT Understand capitalism..... :crazy: :crazy:

Hey Chuck.. How do you do it? Pay Pal? I'm interested in the Kenny Dorham.. thanks

Yea Babby!!! :crazy:
