Perhaps my eyesight is not what it used to be, but doesn’t the Tik Tok trademark look strikingly similar to the Concord Jazz trademark? Is Tik Tok taking over Concord-Universal Music Group??

He was such an inspiration to hear and a real gentlemen to see. Very fortunate to have heard him many times live in recitals and conducting, especially at the Marlboro Music Festival. R.I.P. Leon

Anyone recently experience poor customer service at Oldies.com? I returned a CDR burn of Pat Martino: Baiyina- listed as a CD- which they received on July 3, 2020 and still have not seen a refund after 3 emails and a phone call. Any similar experiences with Oldies.com? Thanks, Bob

Sony is releasing a 7 CD box set devoted to William Masselos in August which contains one of the Modern American Music Series LP- Music of Paul Bowles with William Masselos and music of Norman Dello-Joio. Masselos appears to be almost forgotten these days, but hopefully this box set will bring him and his recordings of Ives, Copland, Satie and others back into the forefront of some of the greatest solo piano music recordings from the Columbia Masterworks and RCA catalogues. As for the Modern American Music Series, I will take whatever Sony gives us, but hopefully one day they’ll devote a box to this great mid- 20th century series.

Hope everyone is doing well - up for air on the Hampton Hawes on CD Thanks Bob

Hopefully they’ll release the Pocahontas Suite when Sony issues the “Modern American Music Series” box set. The question remains when???

How is the sound quality on the Richie Kamuca - Roy Eldridge set? I see its been reissued on disc - looks like a CDR release - would like to hear if anyone has links to sample Thanks

Any update as to when Germany will authorize shipping to USA? I placed an order from a German Discogs seller who advised that they will ship as soon as German mail can be shipped to USA Thanks

Thanks all for the recommendation- by far one of her best records!!

I have had some slow (4+week) post order deliveries from DG, but the latecomers ultimately arrive -They always respond to email inquiries about delayed orders

Exactly- The CD is described as having 2 LPs on a single disc with track 13 from a third LP- the copy I have however only has the 12tracks from the 2 LPs but is missing track 13- “Now’s The Time”

Just found a copy of the Shirley Scott “Soul Sister” CD on the Prestige Legends of Acid Jazz Series which lists 13 tracks, the last being “Now’s The Time”. The copy I have only contains 12 tracks - anyone else notice this ? Anyone have a copy with 13 tracks? Thanks, Bob

Anyone have a copy for sale or know of any leads other than the usual internet sites where I can purchase a copy? Thanks and stay safe

Hope everyone is safe- I opened a couple of requests last week to obtain refunds on eBay orders from a seller that never showed up (not from any members here on the board- the CDs were purchased from a well known Japanese seller on eBay) and was told in an email response from eBay to wait until June 3, 2020 for eBay to “step in”. I waited until June 3rd and followed the directions eBay gave...go to “purchase history”- locate item- view request details and ask eBay to step in. The problem is that the CDs I ordered were from March 2020 and are no longer on my purchase history. Has anyone experienced this problem? Is there a telephone number to call. I emailed eBay customer service and the email came back undeliverable. I then logged into eBay and was directed to some service to pay $5.00 which I found completely incredulous. Very unhappy with what appears to be a lack of customer service with eBay. Thanks and stay safe Bob

Should Mosaic venture into the Concord Vaults, Id like to propose: The Complete Emily Remler Concord Jazz Recordings The Complete Ed Bickert Concord Jazz Recordings

What an amazing musician - heard him most recently with Emmet Cohen in Connecticut about a year a half ago - played as great as always -R.I.P. Mr. Cobb, you are missed

Up for some air - has anyone received any CDs ordered from Japan from March 2020? Still waiting for arrivals to USA. Any word on when Japanese post office has or will resume shipping to USA? Thanks and be safe

Highly recommended, especially for the Bartok who he knew

Hope everyone is safe and well- Looking to purchase Hampton Hawes - Jam Session on CD if anyone has a spare copy or has any leads to a copy for sale aside from the usual suspect internet sites Thanks and stay safe Bob

Now with the Epic Records Fromm Foundation box set out, the time is ripe for a Modern American Music Series box from Sony Classical- carpe diem Sony Classical !

Thanks, I’ll add it to my list

Hope everyone is doing OK- Still looking for a copy of the Cicci Santucci Quintet- Arrivederci Roma CD if anyone has come across a copy to sell or has a lead as to where I can buy a copy. Thanks and stay safe, Bob

More wishful thinking for CD box sets: Erich Leinsdorf - Boston Symphony Orchestra: Complete RCA Red Seal Recordings Guarneri Quartet - Complete RCA Red Seal Recordings Cleveland Quartet -Complete RCA Red Seal Recordings and up for air on: Music from Marlboro- Complete Columbia Masterworks Recordings With Marlboro Music Records recordings thrown in as a nice bonus - especially as there is no festival this year Modern American Music Series- Complete Columbia Masterworks Recordings to follow on the heels of the Fromm Foundation Complete Epic Recordings

Has Paul arrived at anyone’s doorstep yet? Any reviews ?

Thanks for the thumbs up on this - has it been issued on CD? Enjoy, Bob
