  1. I especially liked the ECM New Directions albums with Lester Bowie, John Abercrombie, and Eddie Gomez. Doesn't sound like a lineup which should work, but it did, splendidly.
  2. I have the individual albums, but these sets (Smith, Silver, Grant Green) are beautifully done and very affordable. I wish they had continued the series.
  3. I know I saw Beaver Harris live twice in the 70's (once with Shepp, once in a group with Hannibal Peterson and George Adams), and he blew me away in person to a degree that never happened on the dozens of recordings of him. So I don't think it's a totally new phenomenon.
  4. Why did/would Columbia sit on Captain Marvel for three years before releasing it? Great album, and IMO would have made more of a splash in 1972 than it did in 1975 when some of the songs had already been recorded and released by the Airto/Flora/Farrell/Clarke RTF.
  5. Definitely was for me. I need to pull that one out and re-listen, it's been a long time. Looong album sides on that one, 29+ minutes each.
  6. My all-time favorite jazz album:
  7. I know that was the case with the Tyner/Henderson and the Kenny Burrell - I waited those out.
  8. $19.14 at DeepDiscount, with free shipping on $30 orders. Still a lot of money. Using an offer and pre-ordering it some time ago, I got it for $15.10 from DeepDiscount, and it was mailed out this morning to me (I have tracking #).
  9. I will take this if still avialable.
  10. RIP, I enjoyed much of his Passport and pre-Passport work. He was 89.
  11. How good is the book? No shortage of Miles Davis books on my shelves.
  12. FWIW, download is much cheaper on Amazon than on BandCamp ($6.45 vs. $12). I bought it this morning despite reservations about the horn players and the meh sound quality, and will also pick up the 60 Years download. Love Tapscott's work.
  13. I also waited years to get this at a reasonable price. As far as lack of availability of Miles sets, I've never understood why the On The Corner box was not reprinted to meet the demand.
  14. +1, depends on price point and reviews on how much of an improvement it is. I like the 1995 box.
  15. I'm in whenever it eventually makes it to CD.
  16. RIP - I was a fan of their early 1964-1972 run. Very much "of their time", but what a time!

  18. I bought a very cheap copy of this box, and discs 4,7 and 11 don't work. Please PM if you can help me out.
  19. You could fill a whole sub-forum with duscussion on that...
