Also offering the 3xCD compilation: Africa in America: Music From 19 Countries (Corason/Musica Tradicional) for $9 shipped.

$10 shipped in the US for the both together: Otis Spann is the Blues (Candid) V/A: Blues Masters Vol.2: Postwar Chicago Blues (Rhino)

A good one. Originals of this title have been going balistic of late so the MM is 'good value'. This is the only Hubbard BN I don't have so I guess I should get on it!

Price decrease.

SOLD.

OOP 3xCD box set on Blue Note. Asking $20 shipped in US. International at cost. Like new condition.

That also came out in the Verve Elite CD series in the late 90s.

Bump.

You're right. I don't mind personally, but I get it.

A great many of these are available on Amazon for quite cheap. Only a few command collector prices. I try to pick them up here and there. Same story with all the great RCA-Bluebird CDs of the 80s-90s.

Seriously. I admit I only knew him by name but reading about him here ... just terrible. I will make an effort to listen to his playing now.

Been trying to find a good price on this for years. The old local library had it; I made a tape dub but lost that. Probably my favorite Donaldson material.

And I certainly don't feel any closer to Coltrane or any other musician through the crackle and pops on most of the LPs I have than I do listening on CD. Yep, style over substance. The tale of our time.

One plus is they've pressed a lot of titles that are very hard to find on CD. And they're cheap.

I'd love to hear this one. I sampled the title composition on YouTube and it's so unlike Lacy's regular 70s group. Very interesting indeed.

I don't think that Adam Gopnik is a critic. Rather, like David Brooks (and Tom Friedman and Malcolm Gladwell for that matter), Gopnik is more or less an agglomerator, notorious for bouncing off of books and "studies" by other people in fields where he himself has no particular knowledge and then attempting to put his own stamp on the resulting pile of faux contrarian b.s. Nail on the head. I would not be at all surprised if he namechecks Gladwell on The Beatles.

JLH's Giant is Awakened should be out in 2014.

I'll second the Kirk.

Not to be that guy, but the Shorter and Huchterson music has all been on CD and 95% is still in-print. I do wonder why Mosaic never did a Hutcherson 60s box or a Sonny Clark box in the 80s/early 90s before BN put out most of the stuff on CD.

More Hat Huts from Corbett & Dempsey-- Joe McPhee, Phillip Wilson, et al. Obviously Braxton Santa Cruz & Willisau and Cecil Taylor - Garden Black Saint/Soul Note box sets from any of the following -- Billy Bang, Jon Lindberg, Ran Blake, Steve Lacy groups, Borah Bergman, Roscoe Mitchell, Andrew Hill Repress of Jemeel Moondoc - Revolt of the Negro Lawn Jockeys from Eremite. I would be interested to know why they haven't done this. On the waaay far-fetched end of things, some of Steve Lacy's Japanese titles-- Stalks, The Wire, Journey Without End ... Hum Dono Lee Konitz Complete Verve In the real world, I'm looking forward to the Ira Sullivan and Hal Russell CDs from Nessa, Horace Tapscott - The Giant is Awakened from International Phonograph, and whatever No Business has up their sleeves. Oh, and the Marte Roling Fontanas,

Really?! That's weird to even think about, would have made it a very different band, not bad, just different! It shows how open minded he was considered. Hall declined, I can't remember the reasons nor where I read about it. Could have been somewhere on this board. He definitely was the most progressive of his generation, even without going "out". Don't forget his great work on Ornette's Science Fiction!

Vijay Iyer posted a pic. Blame the general decrease in excellence among the US media over the last 25 years. Amazingly, it correlates with divestment!

It's also at DG.
