and the vinyl box down to $64.-- at amazon.com

I was always buying directly from Mosaic, with USPS shipping. Never DHL/UPS because of the mandatory 50 Euro handling fee and customs clearance (24% etc): it would almost increase the price by 50% or more! With USPS the packages were never ever caught by the customs. However, now and since last year the customs block everything above 25 EURO and charge 15 euro fee and 24% import VAT. This would still end with prices lower than jazzmessengers still. But the problem is that the customs do not have the resources to deal with the huge volumes of packages to be cleared and they end up with 2+ months waiting until clearance! So, JazzMessengers this time and from now on for me...

I located it in my hard drives. Here it is: https://mega.nz/#!VTpGUKCC!jc4iuldvCln8WckIugAeVF4WAHCEmTKPFTWZT98C3ho Enjoy Alex

down to 44 us$ at amazon.com now (35 euro)

I think these releases were posted here before but I cannot see any dedicated thread. Should we order? :-) Two batches : 29 November and 6 December 2017; with 2017 DSD mastering, the usual suspects: http://store.universal-music.co.jp/feature/sacd/?s18=SA-CD%EF%BD%9ESHM%E4%BB%95%E6%A7%98+BLUE+NOTE%E5%90%8D%E7%9B%A4&stock=0 http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/products?term.prodkey=UCGQ-9007,UCGQ-9008,UCGQ-9009,UCGQ-9010,UCGQ-9011,UCGQ-9012,UCGQ-9013,UCGQ-9014,UCGQ-9015,UCGQ-9016,UCGQ-9017,UCGQ-9018,UCGQ-9019,UCGQ-9020,UCGQ-9021,UCGQ-9022 http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/products?term.prodkey=UCGQ-9026,UCGQ-9023,UCGQ-9025,UCGQ-9024

Harold Mabern Trio have their last gig in Athens today. Just got two tickets: http://www.halfnote.gr/event/harold-mabern/ ... and LIEBMAN / SWALLOW / NUSSBAUM – We Three in late April/May.

Another cross-label Universal series named "Jazz 100th Anniversary UHQCD Series" The usual suspects, but some of them listed as "Japan versions" - e.g. Ballads and Love Supreme are listed as such; could they be the great Platinum SHM-CD remasters?

I always ask them for nominal value, and they comply. I think you should ask them each time and they do it.

#112 just in! Same problem with the tray. Dexter Gordon started the session. Great!

Great! Ordered along with the James P. Johnson set!

Somethin' Else was my entrance to "modern" jazz 35 years ago. Autumn Leaves is often played for guests in our home and they love it. Also Blue Bossa from Henderson's "Page One".

Great!

Normally this link will enable you to download the liner notes as I scanned them: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mzae0kj48avofqv/MODERN%20JAZZ%20SOCIETY%20VERVE%20LINER%20NOTES%20SCHULLER%201999.pdf?dl=0

No worries. I had printed It back then from the Verve web site - the web address is there as footnote. I will scan it and send it tomorrow.

I ll check at home this evening and let you know. For your convenience here is Discogs VEE listing:https://www.discogs.com/label/261081-Verve-Elite-Edition

I remember that a good part of the notes in the booklet of the following release were missing due to some misprint, but they were published somewhere for the buyers to download them complete.

Last weekend we played the japanese mini-lp cds of "Night Song" and "Asphalt Canyon Suite" (I bought them used some years ago before getting so expensive - it is really strange that both have been issued on Cd only once and never globally, while e.g. Guitar Forms is always in print). Asphalt Canyon Suite is one of his best records IMO, and the best from his Verve years. "Blues The Common Ground" has been also played afterwards - no comparison as a listening experience compared to the above. A Generation Ago Today has been issued with the original sleeve and title in Japan as mini LP (I do have it) and is currently in print as SHM-CD. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/UCCU-6245 The Japanese CDs do not include the bonus tracks.

From June to September 2016, dozens of cds. All releases can be found at the following Universal Japan link - just go the relevant tag to browse per label: http://www.universal-music.co.jp/jazz/jazz-hyakkaten/cat/201606/ Since these are remasters/transfers from previous releases, your recommendations are more than welcomed! NB: New liner notes are included... Alex

the series can be seen at: http://www.universal-music.co.jp/jazz/jazz-hyakkaten/cat/201608impulse/ Coltrane's are: Ballads A love supreme Hartmann Duke At Village Vanguard Selflessness Quartet Impressions Coltrane At Birdland Transition

Lets' see if amazon.de will ship it. It had 2-3 weeks availability. Now almost only available from sellers for 200 Euro.

Thanks!
