Maybe they're just shoring up their affairs. Frankly I find True Blue to be pretty irrelevant anyways.
That said, my goals for this year include ordering 5 more Selects and the Herman, Hampton, and Lester Young sets. And hopefully the Threadgill.
I wonder, though, if we'll see any more Selects come out at all. It's coming on two years since the Handy and Zeitlin sets, no?
-
I keep getting psyched out by a guy who is listing discs 8-10 from the Roland Kirk set for $150.
On what planet is this reasonable?
-
Picked this up today (@ $29.99), so clearly it has found its way stateside.
Man! The years just fall away on this set. Sounds like it could be 20 years earlier, just stunning.
-
PM sent on the Turrentine box, just in case!
Same re: the Pres!
-
I'm not Bill obviously, but in my mind there isn't even the slightest question about it: YES.
Granted I'm not a fan of most of the Atlantic stuff, but I don't see how any of those records can stand alongside the likes of We Free Kings or Rip, Rig, and Panic.
-
I think I'll still keep on the lookout for the big box. I had to pass one up for $105 at the FYE (of all places) in Philadelphia a couple weeks ago 'cause I'm broke for now.
I wonder if they'd ship it to me ....
-
Not sure what the bonus tracks are on the CD, but I would highly recommend seeking out the Impulse! Dedication Series 2xLP that has extra tracks by Tolliver and Moncur on it.
-
I finally found a copy of Free Form while browsing in Philly and grabbed it. Only been through it once so far, but I enjoy it very much. Glad to finally get my hands on it.
-
I would indeed drop $60 on the Merrill, but $400 on the Kirk is way out of line.
-
Man, I wish those old Mercury box sets weren't so expensive.
-
For God sakes, get the Pres!!
As for the thread title, I wish!

-
I have it paired w/ the Chick Corea session which is indeed much better.
-
As a music buyer, I'm not picky. I have a limited budget so I buy used more often than anything, and vinyl can be very cheap. Thus I buy it when I see a title I want for a good price, despite whatever CD issue might be available-- just don't care about that sort of thing.
-

-
Nope, it was at 'Running Low'.
-
I'm sure everyone will have their chance!
-
I saw one or two Ventura/Phillips sets on Ebay the other day. Is that not an option?
-
FYI, True Blue is selling single discs from their Illinois Jacquet (MD4-145) and Bunny Berrigan (MD7-219) sets for $8.98 apiece. The discs represent the Complete RCA Recordings and Complete Parlophone Recordings respectively. I picked them up, 'cause why not.
-
Quit telling us about these deals, dammit!!
I'm still waiting for the Mingus Debut box to hit liquidation, though.
-
Hm, I love Ornette (trumpet & violin playing included) and ultimately dislike the session w/ Jackie.
-
On the opposite end: just scored the Don Cherry Mosaic for $40!!!
The availability of 'Where Is Brooklyn' as a Conn has probably dented the value of that set (on CD - I'm sure the vinyl is still strongly in demand).
Great set to have, nevertheless !
Indeed, and I even had all three albums in their Conn/RVG editions, but why pass up a chance to throw another black box in the row?
Though I did just see one go for just over $100 on ebay the other day.
-
Anyone like Freddie Redd enough to pay $125 per CD?

Just skimmed this at the bookstore yesterday. Really fantastic and evocative stuff.
Great Finds
