Fantastic.

Sounds about 100% like I was expecting. I'll keep my eyes out for a cheap copy. Right now the ones on Ebay run $25-40 for this "very rare, sealed, private press" record. Which is definitely window dressing for a cheaply made record that someone has a crate of in their garage.

Unexpected indeed. I stumbled on this on Ebay and was wondering if anyone has heard it. Looks very interesting.

Really hope to see more of those, but fear the usual.

If you like Dogon, you will like those two, FOJS in particular.

What's the feasibility of doing Sonny's Time Now? I see it was mentioned upthread, but only briefly. Seems like a perfect candidate.

Up with a new title. Finally scored the Elite!

Checking back for interest in these titles.

Bill Evans Trio - Waltz For Debby (Riverside/OJC)

I'll take the Luncefords.

I'm light on his leader dates, but I will certainly be spinning him with George Russell, Lee Konitz, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Paul Bley and Geri Allen today. Links on a chain breaking each day ...

Wow, a shock. I am so sad. One of the undisputed masters of his instrument.

Not really a box set, but Horace Tapscott - The Dark Tree is on sale for $16.97 at Jazz Loft. As good a price as you'll see for this amazing, wonderful record. http://www.jazzloft.com/c-36-hatsale.aspx Some Braxton, Lacy, Shepp/Roach dbl CDs on sale too.

You got a deal.

Er, one more still: The above-mentioned Iridium set for $60 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anthony-Braxton-9-Compositions-Iridium-2006-/290634089519?pt=Music_CDs&hash=item43ab24442f#ht_500wt_1200

Good deal on Trillium E: $40 shipped. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ANTHONY-BRAXTON-Trillium-E-4-CD-BOX-Set-2011-/370559198197?pt=Music_CDs&hash=item56470ca3f5#ht_801wt_1137 One more deal: Charlie Parker Project (1993) and Creative Orchestra (Koln) 1978 on sale at big, bad Jazz Loft for $16.95.

Are you thinking of the piano music set? The Iridium is on Firehouse 12.

I can't count how many times Amazon listings have got my hopes up like that

Bump. RVGs, OJCs, ECMs, ESPs, JSPs, IAIs, BYGs ... you name it I'll give it a shot.

Note this, however: PLEASE READ: MISSING CD #3. Other 12 CDs in very good condition. Case of disc 13 with crack. artworks great too. NO slipcase present.

Wow, those are painfully random. With the Henderson, for instance, you're one disc short of having all his 60s Blue Notes. I guess they make OK samplers? I would spring for the Cassandra Wilson, I suppose.

Not sure what the Euro conversion rate is like but I posted that Amazon UK is selling those sets for £10 on the previous page. And about that, is there a distinct advantage to owning them if you have all the Legacy CDs? I know the Gil Evans does have a substantial amount of extra music but what of the other two? Last thing: the Black Saint/Soul Note boxes are finally starting to hit Amazon (though no Lacy, Braxton or Konitz yet) and the prices are great-- most around $25-30.

If I could only own 3 Mosaics, the Bix, Farlow and Mobley would be it. So, good choice!

Maybe you're aware it was also released in the Americans Swinging in Paris series paired with Les Stances a Sophie. But I agree it would be nice to have a CD issue from Chuck with the original art, etc.
