No. Dissapointing, that they don't even have inner sleeves considering these are a "boutique item". Doesn't matter, I just would like the rest of that music

I'm gonna order the Woody Shaw set after Christmas, Are the mini LP jackets in these sets heavier grade cardboard?

Beautiful, looks great!

damn, RIP

Not by this point, no.

Not too familiar with his playing, but get well Joseph!

Not sure they were a good match... Larry was a better fit with the post-Coltrane saxophonists. Exactly, although Hank had adopted some post Trane techniques, I think his ideas and style were too rooted in bop and hard bop vocabulary, whereas someone like Joe Henderson who complete embraced the inside outside approach was a better fit.

I was just about to name that one. A great album, his last one as a leader before he retired, right?

what's the deal with the cheese? WOW how can someone confuse Ray Brown and Ron Carter?

Yes, he is still alive. He wrote a tune called "Fingerlero" for the new George Benson album.

I third that. Incredible arrangements on "What's Going On".

that was beautiful - just shed a tear Awesome read. I need to listen to more Paul Motian.

I am pretty sure that there's one "Maiden Voyage" US CD out there with the Japanese master tape because the US master is pretty beat. I am also pretty sure that both of the "needle drop" masters, "The Jody Grind" and "Sweet Honey Bee", had the Japanese masters pulled to see if they were any better (I don't think they were) and they were probably used on their US CD as well. Hmm, the US RVG of "Maiden Voyage" uses the Japanese master perhaps?

Which US CD's in particular Kevin, do you know?

damn.......... RIP

I hope they continue the series reissuing "In Concert vols 1&2" by Freddie and Stanley, but the complete concert.

Yeah that's true, Freddie is there twice. What's funny is even before I saw this vid, I tend to randomly sing that lick or I always hear it in my head.

Hilarious b/c its so true. I love how Pat and Trane are shown twice

Allen, I'd think you would be also bothered by the fact Chick has pretty much for the last several releases put out double albums.

The Montreux DVD box for those of us who missed the 20 disc set looks much better. though I never liked the Miles/Quincy album. Miles was definitely not playing strong there.

I love the apple pie story Bobby told.

Great, touching, funny video

When "Live in Japan" was issued in the US in 1991, it was mono.

Thanks Lon

Vast improvement sonically in the box for "Live in Seattle" and "Concert in Japan" Lon? How are the dynamics?
