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:

That's weird.. I had no problem with mine...

Disc 9...

Disc 6 - Lady Day The Complete Billie Holiday on Columbia 1933-1944... I still can't believe this was available for $40??? :unsure:

Used my gift card to grab the Django set... I'm suspecting it's likely to be one that goes OOP soon...

Disc 2 - Ms. Holiday, the Complete commodore & decca masters... there will never be another Billie. :blush2:

The Jazz Crusaders is a great set...

First Half of Bing Disc 5 (Digital version)... I have to say this set (along with the People Time Complete Recordings) are going to make my top 10 of the year!

Having just gotten through the set over the last few days... I have to say it's fabulous!!! I enjoy different versions of the same tune (especially live)... The chemistry between the two of the them was outstanding... ! Highly recommended! :tup

so mercury was a part of EmArcy?? Hmm... If I can get a decent price on this ... maybe...

I've got a 2CD "Best of the Mercury Years" release from a few years back... I assume there's no duplication between this set and the EmArcy set? thanks

Disc 6... Absolutely wonderful! You beat me to it, King--I got mine today as well and just finished disc 1. Many thanks to fellow board members for tipping me off to this set.

Stan Getz - Kenny Barron - The Complete People Time Recordings - Disc 4.. Absolutely amazing stuff!!! :excited: :excited: I can't recommend it highly enough! (You hear that Ron S. )

Other than me.... :excited: :excited: What are you getting?? I'm torn between the Chu Berry, Lester Young and yes... :beee: :beee: the Armstrong (simply for historical reasons)... Any advice? What are you getting?

Oscar Peterson Set Disc 2... Love these extended tunes...
