Just watched it. Really nice. Thank you. No VPN required.

I am sure you know that, but this is a way to pass the DSD signal from a SACD player to an external DAC with I2S input. The small I2S converter box costs 80 dollars. "At Long Last! Listen To Your (Physical) SACDs Through an Outboard DAC": https://audiophilestyle.com/ca/reviews/at-long-last-listen-to-your-physical-sacds-through-an-outboard-dac-r971/page/2/#comments "With the Oppo UDP-205, one connects the “Audio” HDMI output of the player to the input of the I2S converter box (if your player doesn’t have an audio-only HDMI output, use the video HDMI output) and the output of the HDMI side of the converter box goes to the HDMI input on one’s DAC. That’s pretty straightforward. "

#010 (!) just arrived.

R.I.P. A legend.

A photo from the event. Chris Cacavas (Green on Red original member) on the keyboards.

The first set had recent songs. At the 2nd set they played the whole Medicine Show album.

By the way, two days ago the legendary 80s group "Dream Syndicate" with Steve Wynn played in Athens - they closed their set with their John Coltrane Stereo Blues with quotes of the 'A Love Supreme'. Very nice.

Sure. Send me a PM.

It is mentioned in this film that Blue Note sent her in 2001 a check of $40,000.-- against royalties. We can see also Mingus praising her wishing to work with her.

A marvelous 2025 production on Jutta Hipp. Very nice. German : Being Hipp - First Lady of European Jazz - Die ganze Doku | ARTE French: Being Hipp : la première dame du jazz européen - Regarder le documentaire complet | ARTE

I just received it and I am watching it right now. Really nice. Thank you for notifying us about this Criterion release.

soon on cd too: https://thelostrecordings.store/en/collections/tous-nos-produits/products/john-coltrane-live-in-finland-1961-1962-double-uhqcd

I have the CD that offers 2 tracks where Jim Hall is added, Mulligan leaves the baritone sax to Desmond and plays the piano.

After reading your message, I played both the 1991/Schaap CD and the 1997 Verve later issue. The Schaap CD is so compressed lacking dynamics. The 1997 (original mix) one plays far better in my system.

Looks great. But not available at my location

Thank you, such amazing treasures, indeed. For some reason I listened yesterday to the Gunther Schuller interview around Louis Armstrong. Exceptional. And having Schuller saying that after the end of his evening job at the MET orchestra as horninst in the 40s, he went ahead to the 52 street etc. to see the Bird, Gillespie, Monk et al. ignoring *then* Satchmo who was so hostile to the new music.

This morning before going to work, I played the last SACD from the recent japanese set. I loved it in terms of performance ans sound quality. Hopefully I will compare soon with the 1995 US set and then let you know of any material differences.

https://www.plosin.com/milesahead/PluggedNickel.aspx "At first the producers of the domestic project -- executive producer Michael Cuscuna, Bob Belden, and Steve Berkowitz and Kevin Gore from Columbia -- worked with masters provided by Sony Japan. The project was suspended, however, when archivists in Columbia's Manhattan storage facility came upon a cache of twenty-five 1/2" three-track "B reels," recorded on a second deck as backups for those times when the reels on the master deck were being changed. These new reels included more than twenty minutes of music that was missing from the supposedly complete Japanese set! All the tunes that were issued in edited form on the Sony Japan set could be restored to their full length. (For details on the restored passages, what was restored and where, see the notes to the December 22 and December 23 sessions elsewhere on this site.)"

https://vinyl.sonymusic.com/products/miles-davis-the-complete-plugged-nickel-live-1965-10lp-box-set Ship Date: January 30, 2026 A 10LP reissue of Miles Davis's legendary 1965 "Complete Live at the Plugged Nickel" performances, featuring Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams, is being released for the jazz legend's centennial, featuring high-resolution masters, individually designed LP jackets, and an extensive booklet. These recordings, considered among the greatest live jazz albums ever made, capture the Second Great Quintet in a moment of peak improvisation, dismantling and rebuilding tunes on the fly. The new set, cut from Mosaic's high-res masters, offers fans access to one of jazz's most mythologized live events after the original release was relegated to pricey secondary markets in the early 90s. Format: 10 LPs, pressed on 140-gram black vinyl. Content: The full 7+ hours of music from the seven sets recorded on December 22-23, 1965, at Chicago's Plugged Nickel Café. Masters: Cut from high-resolution Mosaic masters. Packaging: Each LP has a newly designed jacket, and the set is housed in a gold foil-embossed slipcase box. Booklet: A 44-page, 12"x12" Smyth-sewn book with rare Plugged Nickel photos and extensive new liner notes by Syd Schwartz and Bob Blumenthal
