The majority of the WhyNot/Candid releases are worth getting IMHO Import CDs have them @ low to mid $7 range Just a warning re Candid CDs - some I have purchased were CDr's (Benny Bailey), though none of the Whynots

Solar records (part of the Andorran stable) have recently released the "complete" April 15, 1961 Concertgebouw concert 7 titles have been previously issued on LP (Italian Musica Jazz) & 9 on CD (Magnetic) This release adds 2 previously unreleased titles I presume this will consist of broadcast recordings - poorer quality than if it was a Dutch Jazz Archive release - they most likely would have the original tapes A real pity - I hope this doesn't stymie the Dutch Jazz Archive from issuing this properly

you can still get them all from HMV Japan (the whole series so far from 2013) - just before Christmas I did a big order with them (ones I missed out from CD Japan) They actually have some on special (850 Yen - multi buy) - shipping is a bit more expensive with HMV but I've been landing them each for $14Aus When CD Japan list their discs as OOP, they are usually still available elsewhere

Check this youtube video on Pekar's comments on collecting jazz records & how he overcame his addiction was posted on the Mosaic site today

My copy was released in Japan in 2000, Toshiba/Bethlehem TOCJ-62058. Personnel: Sam Most - flute Zoot Sims - tenor saxophone Teddy Charles - vibraphone Dave McKenna - piano Jimmy Raney - guitar Bill Crow - bass Ed Shaughnessy - drums OK, didn't think it was Hans, looks like all of the other ones on your list have had a 2013 release Hopefully we'll see some Teddy Charles, Bobby Scott, Milt Hinton, Herbie Harper, Australian Jazz Quartet, Urbie Green, Ralph Burns & the final Howard McGhee sometime this year

After sourcing the "Spiegel Edition", I Initially contacted Warners UK to see if they had any English versions of the booklet but alas no luck there so ended up getting one from Mosaic You really do need to get those extant Ellington Mosaics before they sell out

Has the Teddy Charles "On Campus" been recently released? - can't find it on CD Japan or HMV Japan

Harman Kardon Sound Sticks & Jellyfish have been running these for close on 10 years & the addition of a Nuforce DAC converter a couple of years ago has made it even sweeter

there are 4 titles (alts) from the Black Lion / 1201 CDs not in the Mosaic set while the latter contains one title not in the 3 individual discs

I can see in the near future the Andorrans releasing a double Dolphy CD (stealing/adding this release of alternates to the 2004 Lonehill Jazz CD "Complete Memorial Album Sessions") & calling it what? "The Absolute Complete……. Sessions"

that's bizarre - why would someone just steal the discs (unless you kept them separate from the box/booklet)

588 (& 134 for the Dolphy)

Just thought I'd share this photo of the 1965 tour programme that I've had for a number of years (just posted it on the Monk Facebook site) No, I wasn't at the concert (was only 9 years old then) & my parents weren't jazz fans

let's hope they both run side by side The earlier set is a UK release (that's what my copy reveals) The new set is a euro release

that's a pity - the earlier release contained 36 bonus tracks (non LP 7", BBC material etc) pertinent to each original LP

you bet!! received an email promoting this film a few days ago http://us4.campaign-archive1.com/?u=a7086e7d975e1148d1dd0a557&id=a5b1d4cd3f&e=5ec531ed07

thanks

the liner notes mention an augmented quartet but only list 3 of the rhythm members & no guitarist A guitar is evident on virtually all of the tracks Laurindo Almeida was a consultant for the recordings - maybe he also played the guitar?

mine is on the way but may take some time (surface shipping)

I agree that the packaging/presentation is over the top & space wasting but it's the music (in digital format) that I want. Also, I hadn't previously heard any of the early material (Cambridge Uni, Aix En Provence, home demos etc) Interestingly, there are titles on the "Time Of No Reply" LP excluded from this set They're also pushing the Molly Drake angle & influence on her son - have released an entire CD of her home recordings (not in the box) http://mollydrake.bandcamp.com I remember seeing the doco "A Skin Too Few" in the early 2000's - was shown on the ABC here in Australia (my partner found it utterly depressing & couldn't watch it to the end)

Any Nick Drake fans out there? connected with his music in the early 80's & have dug his small output ever since - can listen to "Five Leaves Left" & "Bryter Layter" ad infinitum Have never had any of his material on CD (except a couple of tracks on the "White Bicycles" compilation) - only ever on LP (Fruit Tree box & individual discs) Island/Universal have just released a 5CD box set "Tuck Box" at a very reasonable price - perfect for me http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tuckbox-Limited-Box-Nick-Drake/dp/B00FWCFNN0/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1387782640&sr=1-1&keywords=nick+drake+tuck+box Interesting to note that Chris McGregor plays on one of the tracks from "Bryter Layter" (Poor Boy)

my import CD order for this CD has just been cancelled - marked as unavailable Did you have to cancel it or did ImportCDs do it automatically? I e-mailed them a couple of days ago to cancel but have not yet heard anything. Unfortunately I paid via Paypal so the money's already left my account. they have a 21day rule that if the item is not available within that time frame it automatically is cancelled even though it was a preorder (also used the 10% disc) & only came available on Dec 10 -> it was cancelled on Dec 16 have to watch out for that in future

my import CD order for this CD has just been cancelled - marked as unavailable

sorry about the doubling up of threads - did check before I posted but it must have been a "boys" look Any chance of merging this with the earlier post - I can't delete it as it has been already added to

just received an email from Dusk Fire They're releasing Norma's 1st LP "Edge Of Time" (Argo, 1972) in Jan (2014) what a stellar cast - Lowther, Wheeler, Pyne, Griffiths, Rutherford, Osborne, Skidmore, Themen, Ricotti, Taylor, Boyle, Laurence & Levin arrangements by Ardley, Surman & Warren This has been previously released on CD Dusk Fire will do a good transfer job as usual
