romualdo

just saw these sets on Jazz Messengers - ordered directly from the Wallen Bink site What a lineup: Tolliver, Nathan D, Henderson, Farmer, Carmell......

Yep, I have many of those but would welcome a digital (CD) set I've got the more simplified, much less ornate (& cheaper) european version

exact opposite for us here in Australia - what a total stuff up - hope they cut ties with Asendia

Yep, one of my friends south received his today - already listened to two discs

same here my Asendia is saying Australia (Sydney) for Aug 18 while the DAI has it in the states for 17/8 - how can that be - Concorde postal service!!

Yes, I've got a number of releases piled up for me & just waiting on the latest Harriott vinyl release (delayed) to add to the haul Also the Rhythm & Blues label is releasing a Harriott at the BBC (3 sessions) CD - maybe this has already been mentioned https://rhythmandbluesrecords.co.uk/?product=joe-harriott-quintet-the-rakes-progress-at-the-bbc The Amalgam release "Prayer For Peace" is a stunner. Have you heard of the UK label "Hi4Head" - I bought a couple Watts/Amalgam CDs from them - rereleases from the Ogun catalogue (Closer to You & Cynosure) with unreleased material from the same sessions

huge amount of coverage in Australia today - she's an icon here especially wrt her extramusical pursuits - established a cancer clinic here in 2014 She was actually born in the UK then returned in the late 60s to record her early "country orientated" material. RIP Olivia

currently listening to La Notte - it's included in the 8CD set "Jazz on Film - The New Wave II"

I've successfully extracted most of the bonus info IICRC from the disc - it won't play by just inserting, as you know Mainly the dialogue - RVG & other BN musicians discussing JC & the album

many thanks for the link Joe - what a wonderful site ordered the Melle (3 LPs on 2 CDs), Kirchin (Worlds Within Worlds, Vols 1 & 2 - both LPs on one CD) & Fischer sets Looks like Keith Fullerton Whitman recently lived here in Australia for a while

I did contact Fred a few days ago & spoke of the shipping "fiasco" & he totally agreed. He contacted Asendia for me & next day I received a functioning link with a different tracking #

received this one liner email from Mosaic this morning - no other explanatory text "https://a1.asendiausa.com/tracking/ 50S6BZZQ94" again, that number goes nowhere (it never did right from the start) - below is the response I get when inserting the tracking number into Ascendia Your Order Information Has Not Yet Made It To Our System But We Will Show Updates Once It Does! Check Back Soon!

fascinating - just watched Never realised there was a John Fahey connection with Fonotone - just ordered the Fahey Fonotone box set & book All my Fahey material is on vinyl

thanks for the tip - tried it with no luck - I suspect that code is actually not a tracking #

been using CD Japan for years - highly recommended IMHO for service, though they don't always carry the full range of Japanese releases

Almost 2 weeks (July 15) since my box was supposed to have been sent plus the tracking number when placed into the Asendia site repeatedly has come back as "Item Not Found". Anyone else from Australia had any better luck?

Got mine today too - Australia bound - can't work out whether it's going via Ascendia or USPS. Inserting tracking code in Ascendia comes back as "Item Not Found" - too early??

Beautiful!!

same here (Australia) - maybe overseas orders go to the bottom of the pile

had no trouble extracting this recent 83min disc

I didn't think it was possible to have more than (up to) 80 minutes of recorded data/music on a standard CD I've just received a Horace Tapscott & Michael Session Japanese P-Vine disc "Live At Theatre Du Chene Noir, Avignon, France 1989" It's showing as 83 minute duration - have there been changes in technology?

The Dudu Pukwana "Black Horse" download (no previous CD or LP issue) has been released in Japan only as disc 2 from the 2021 double CD of "Diamond Express" (Freedom Paper Sleeve Series) https://1201music.com/js_albums/dudu-pukwana-black-horse/ https://www.discogs.com/release/19729930-Dudu-Pukwana-Diamond-Express Pity they didn't do the same with the Dewey Redman "Look For The Other Black Star" download ie add it to the "Look For The Black Star" Freedom Paper Sleeve Series https://1201music.com/js_albums/dewey-redman-look-for-the-other-black-star/ https://www.discogs.com/release/18706018-Dewey-Redman-Look-For-The-Black-Star

Looks very interesting - will probably go for that one

Going through the whole set today - sound is sooooo good!!

my CC has just been charged - hopefully my set will be on its way to Australia soon
