I have 512 GB on my iPhone 13 Plus. I have over 20,000 songs on it. Granted I did have to downsample (?) them to 256 from ALAC but most of my listening with my phone happens in the car where the diminished fidelity is not an issue. At home I'm an iPod classic guy. I had one hot-rodded to 1TB of memory and another to 768GB for rock and jazz respectively. I believe that the 14s now have the option to go 1TB. I succumbed to Apple's insistence and did purchase the 100GB for $2.99 but reading the comments I'm going to rethink that. In checking most of our family backups are text messages. There are three of us and we don't use the cloud for photos or music. Apple does pretty well. I don't think they will miss my $3 a month.

FS- Newport Jazz Festival Programs- Duke Ellington Cover is from the Silver Anniversary (1978). Cover shows some slight wear. This is a magazine-like program. There is an assortment of articles. The advertisements are like getting into a wayback machine. This binding is very tight, indicating that it is just about unread. $15 $12 The other program is from 1980- The Kool Newport Jazz Festival. This cover is in very good shape and like the Ellington the binding is very tight. Articles and ads. A veritable time capsule. $15 $12 Take both for $25 $20 plus media mail shipping. Thank you.

With all due respect, I'm not sure why race would be used as a springboard into what is an otherwise interesting thread. I am also personally troubled by the broad brush used in painting the stylistic similarities and artistic trajectory of African American flumpeters/trumpeters. I enjoy the musicians that I do because of their playing. Race is not a factor in any way shape or form. Nor is it the basis/criteria upon which I would feel comfortable using to begin a discussion. Some album covers show the artists but there are those that don't, which leaves the question of race out of the "picture" (primarily for new artists and lesser known sidemen). I don't stream but I'm going to guess that there are instances that also omit an image of the artists. My ears listen and judge the music and musicians based on what is compatible with my interests. I'm certain that this thread wasn't initiated to be a discussion on race. This is clear based on subsequent posts. I just found that initial observation and the reference to race to be very off-putting. Just one man's opinion.

I'm just gonna be that guy...I never got into Coltrane. Early on I bought a bunch of his stuff because that was "jazz" as presented to me. It got pushed aside by other things that resonated more deeply with me- Mingus, Rahsaan, Lee Morgan, Freddie Hubbard, Hutcherson, and Miles to name a few. I've revisited his stuff a couple of times through the decades but I'm still left flat. I even got "Love Supreme" on 180 gram vinyl through popmarket a few months ago at a deep discount. Meh. Love abounds for him here and that's the beauty of art and music. What works for each of us is a highly personal thing. So, even though I do have an appreciation for some of Dolphy's work, this is a pass for me. Okay...let me have it. 🙂

This is a "magazine" program full of pictures and an assortment of articles/artist profiles. Looking through it, and particularly the advertisements is like going into a time capsule. $25 shipped.

Ditto.

I've been very pleased with a pair of M-Audio speakers that I've had for about ten years. I don't listen to music on my PC a lot so these have held up very well. My specific model has been upgraded to the one I've linked to: https://inmusicstore.com/m-audio-bx4-black-kevlar-120-watt-multimedia-reference-monitors.html So many wonderful choices as mentioned above. I did a lot of research. Can't remember exactly why I decided on these...

uMusic has a buy two get one free sale going on right now. Most of the Tone Poet titles and the Classic Vinyl series are included. Shipping is free as well. I'm going to take the plunge on three of each as the Classics will price out at about $20 with tax while the Tone Poets are about $28. I noticed just a handful of exclusions. On a lesser jazz note the Zappa vinyl titles seem to always be excluded from discounts/promotions. I guess that the family trust wants to wring every dollar they can out of dear old dad's extensive recorded legacy.

I am just starting to do vinyl again. I’d like to pick up some classic Blue Note. I see that the Tone Poet series is priced out about $38.99 everywhere I check. I know the music but are these pressings superior to the point of worth being so expensive? Thanks.

Mine continues to lounge in Albuquerque...since April 15. Matt at Nimbus is being helpful and he's going to see what he can find out...I know a lot of people grumble about the post office. I've typically had good luck and I consider myself fortunate to have had very few mishaps. But I'm in a slump. The new GD Dave's Pick 46 (a highly anticipated 1972 show) arrived at the post office on 4/29 and continues to languish as it waits for "acceptance" and I've got another order from Florida that seems to be swirling around Tampa Bay for the past few weeks as well. Ugh.

Mine has been in Albuquerque since April 11th. No information beyond it's moving through "network" and arriving late. At least it's arriving....

Dungarees, slacks, trousers...I teach and the kids today have no idea what they are. My father who is almost 90 still calls the refrigerator the "ice box." I would guess that most people nowadays would find that a strange way to refer to their Igloo cooler.

Bump- Up with price reductions. Good opportunity to combine jazz and classical sets. Thank you.

Kind of a longshot here, but I have a complete set of all 38 Mosaic Select titles. A half-dozen or so are unopened. A few are marked as promos. All are in very good/excellent/mint shape. I am an iPod guy so sets which were played were typically ripped directly into iTunes and then shelved. Some sets might show some minor shelf wear. Many booklets in the opened sets are unread. I am the original owner of all sets. They are in a smoke-free home. I am asking $1250 for the set. That equates to about $33 per set. I used a combination of Discogs pricing and the final prices of sold items on ebay to arrive at this figure. Someone "late to the party" may wish to get them all at once. I feel this price is fair. I am not interested in getting into the rigmarole of selling sets individually. Sold items on ebay recently seem to range from $20 to $150 for particular sets. Discogs has some lower pricing but many sets are located out of the US and with shipping the final cost is much higher than the listing price. I typically looked at the median pricing and used a figure somewhere around that. I'm happy to send photos and discuss shipping or pick up. Please PM if interested. Thank you.

My Rotel has a USB-A port that allows me to connect and Apple device.

I'm a pass on this as well. While I don't have a lot of this material, listening to the Mosaic samples, the between song applause sounds more pronounced and intrusive than I recall. Blowing and cutting sessions don't hold the same allure for me that they once did. I personally like the Blue Note sets and I also hold out hope that Mosaic will do more things with other labels- something hinted at with this release as well as the inclusion of the Impulse sides on the Hubbard set? More adventurous fare like the Threadgill and Braxton would also suit my palette.

Sold.

Bump. Price drop to $50 plus MM cost to lower 48.

Mint condition. Only the first disc was played. The liner notes were read once. Everything is excellent/mint condition. I have a significant library of Zappa titles. The single album is not one of my favorites. I wondered if this set would change my mind. Listening to disc one I quickly realized the single CD will suffice. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Asking $60 plus actual media mail cost. PayPal family or personal check for payment please. Thank you.

Selling some classical sets from my collection. All boxes are in very good/excellent condition with a few exceptions noted. Many discs are unplayed while those that were were ripped to iTunes and therefore played just once. My preference is chamber music so pretty much anything that doesn't fit that bill is untouched by me...and I am the original owner of all sets. Some of these sets are very heavy. Media mail postage at cost will be added...unless you buy them all. Payment is PayPal friends and family or 100% old school with a personal check. I'm a reputable seller here without any problems I'm also an established ebay seller as jazzisgood4u. This new Paypal tax reporting thing is a pain in the nuggets. Hence my terms. If you're uncomfortable with that, I understand. Thank you for looking.

I dusted off my 40th anniversary copy of Woodstock to watch with my 18 year old son. It was his first time watching and while answering his many questions along the way I realized that I wanted to know more about the event myself. So I ordered a book which broke down each performance by length of set, time of set, and setlist. I was familiar with most artists but for some reason while reading the book shown below the section on Keef Hartley piqued my interest. Although I'm typically wary of groups led by drummers I sprang for this 7 CD set for about $40 and I'm very pleasantly surprised. At times the group exudes a Blood Sweat and Tears vibe (You Can't Take it With You from the live record) while the flute feature "Hickory" has an airy jazz vibe. There is also plenty of solid blues-based classic rock material included as well. Curious if anyone else is hip to this music or interested in testing the waters.

Three bass players? That makes me both curious and skeptical.

My charge just shows as pending. What I find interesting is that I did not receive a confirmation email for my order. I also had to set up a new account. I'm surprised that they couldn't roll over customer information into their new system. I don't think that that is a hard thing to do in 2022.
