  1. I also transferred my LP set (do a lot of vinyl transferring/digitalising) but also have the two Avid (UK - grey area releases) double CD sets - they cover virtually all of the tracks in the box set sans an alternate take (Jeep Is Jumpin') that was only released on a Norgran 78
  2. My version (from the UK Charly CD "Overture To Dawn" The Apartment Sessions) is basically Erroll on piano with drum support Definitely no trombone or clarinet The key is mentioned on page 332 of the Blue Note Discography (1st Edn) "This recording featured parts by Bobby Pratt (tb) & Barney Bigard (cl), which are not included in issued records" So, The Lord Discography needs to be modified - I'll send that info to Tom (Lord) to update/modify as I contribute to it the Lord Discography has these details All Stars Orchestra : Bobby Pratt (tb) Barney Bigard (cl) Erroll Garner (p) George Wettling (d) New York, December, 1944 It had to be you (unissued) I surrender dear (incomplete) Blue Note BLP5008, New York (Dan) (no#), BNP (F)25.102, Official (Dan)83016-2 [CD], Classics (F)802 [CD] Note: "I surrender dear" as "Beg your pardon on New York (Dan)(no#). whereas The Jazz Discography Project has Erroll Garner, piano; George Wettling or maybe Doc West, drums; overdubbed in at a later date, poss. 1953. Timme Rosenkrantz apartment, NYC, December 14, 1944 I Surrender, Dear
  3. I've got a ticket - looking forward to the Mobe tribute streamed from RVG's studio (9pm Saturday Eastern Standard time which is midday Sunday here in Brisbane)
  4. Yep, been riding continuously since 1979 - Ducatis (two 450 Desmos, 250 Silver Shotgun), Gilera 150, BMW 90/6 (1984-2007), BMW 75/5 (2007 to now). Got a soft spot for euro machinery but have always had an eye for the British classics too. Had numerous accidents but nothing major - one fractured jaw (hit the bitumen at 120kms/hr) & fractured big toe on another mishap (hit head on by a car on a Sunday morning) - been lucky I suppose but I think I'm addicted to the feeling of freedom of being on a bike.
  5. Wow!! 99 RIP Candido!
  6. most definitely!!
  7. the Rivers releases are superb - I've been nabbing them as they are released plus have been buying directly from No Business (Lithuanian outfit) for a number of years now (CD & LP) Highly recommend exploring the label - they really have their finger on the pulse (new releases & reissues).
  8. first time in the game's history that it wasn't played in home territory (Melbourne) - it was up here in Brisbane due to COVID
  9. I scored my copy (2853) in Dec 2007 directly from Okkadisk
  10. That would mean lot of overlap/doubling for those that have the big RCA box
  11. yep
  12. Here's one of them
  13. He signed my Mosaic box (brought the whole thing along) "You bought the big one" over the front pic plus my Point Of Departure LP "Thanks For Keeping Me Alive"
  14. same here - got to see him here (Brisbane) back in October 1996 - played solo at the Queensland Conservatorium to an audience (in a small performance room) of less than 20 people - magic!! A group of us ended up at a coffee shop with him afterwards - he was desperately trying to quit smoking
  15. - Disc 1 - 1 Giant Steps (2020 Remaster) 2 Cousin Mary (2020 Remaster) 3 Countdown (2020 Remaster) 4 Spiral (2020 Remaster) 5 Syeeda's Song Flute (2020 Remaster) 6 Naima (2020 Remaster) 7 Mr. P.C. (2020 Remaster) - Disc 2 - 1 Giant Steps (Alternate, Take 1, Incomplete) [2020 Remaster] 2 Naima (Alternate, Take 3) [2020 Remaster] 3 Like Sonny (Alternate, Take 7) [2020 Remaster] 4 Countdown (Alternate Take) [2020 Remaster] 5 Syeeda's Song Flute (Alternate Take) [2020 Remaster] 6 Cousin Mary (Alternate Take) [2020 Remaster] 7 Giant Steps (Alternate, Take 5) [2020 Remaster] 8 Giant Steps (Take 6, Alternate) [2020 Remaster] I'm pretty sure all of these titles on Disc 2 are included in the Heavyweight Champion box set
  16. I'm looking for discs 1 & 2 from the Giuffre Mosaic set (176) plus disc 2 from the Capitol Mosaic box (170) I do have CDrs of the missing discs but it would be nice to complete these sets
  17. I thought that was the case with many/most of the original Actuel releases
  18. That's good news jazzkrow BTW I could have done with a Rogers booklet - I only have CDrs of the set plus a photocopied booklet - a boardmember here kindly ripped their set for me a few years ago. I've been looking to source a set for years but they've always been out of my price range (too expensive IMHO). They were already OOP when I started buying mosaics in the early/mid 90s. I think the cost of shipping to australia would be ridiculous so I'm happy to stick with my photocopy version
  19. Yep!!
  20. The Jason Weiss text "Always In Trouble - An Oral History of ESP-Disk" has a chapter dedicated to Jacques - mostly an interesting interview with him
  21. also Elmo Hope - Sounds from Rikers Island McCoy Tyner - Today & Tomorrow
  22. Wow!!! I'll just have to settle for his autograph (Brisbane, Australia 1965 tour) - no, I didn't see him (was a bit young)
  23. just ordered new Ra & Kowald plus the recent Graves (Babi) & Pukwana (Yi Yole) love the CvsD covers (mini LPs) - so much better than those horrid plastic jewel cases
