Wikipedia got it right, but I would always start in discogs for this type of question. From Wikipedia: On 9 November 2018, remixed and expanded editions of The Beatles were released. These sets feature 50 previously unreleased recordings of songs from the album, in addition to the Esher demos recorded at Harrison's house.[179] The four editions are: a three-CD deluxe set, containing the original double album and one CD of Esher demos; a seven-disc super deluxe edition, which adds three CDs of outtakes and a Blu-ray disc; a two-LP edition, comprising the original release; and a four-LP edition, two discs of which contain Esher demos.[180] Following the announcement of these editions in September, a preview containing three versions of "Back in the U.S.S.R." was released on Spotify[181] and iTunes.[182]

That one is complete. The one Fantasy released in the US is missing one cut, Du(Rain), which is really annonying, given that they had room for it. BTW, for the uninitiated, these albums were, to me, Andy Bey's finest moment.

And that (fabulous) Bartz set has been out since 1997.

Momox has incredibly poor ratings on ebay, about 90% satisfaction (many large sellers are close to 100%, for instance get_imports is 99%). I don't think they are deadbeats, as sometimes I have had shipments from them show up months later. I just think there is some sort of systematic glitch getting stuff from Germany to USA addresses (regardless of which postal service/customs office is to blame).

declutter is actually US-based, formerly estocks-usa. Huge into recycling push.

Warren Smith was an incredibly talented and underrated rockabilly musician.

Similar experiences here, I won't use them, their shipping to USA is awful. They are the only fully banned Amazon/Ebay seller for me (decluttr is partially banned for non-existent product control - they sometimes send me discs terribly overgraded, or even missing elements, such as a second disc. Both sellers do refund without dispute if you file a claim, but who needs the headaches?

I have this and like it, and of course, he has the vocal cameo on "Mingus Moves".

PM sent also.

Count me in on both. That's a great series. There was magic in that concert hall during that time, and the recording quality is stunning.

Also, I went out there today, and some titles that were offered originally no longer are offered. And the price shows as higher than it did. So I'm out.

I know they've leased out some of the Vanguard titles. Real Gone Music (the legit American label) put out several of the early Larry Coryell albums in the past two-three years. But I can't imagine that was their plan. They are just sitting on things like the Joan Baez catalog, as well as interesting lesser lights like Eric Andersen.

Nor did I. Also didn't realize they own Vanguard - no wonder that catalog is sitting DOA.

FREE SHIPPING Spain, European Union, Swizterland and Norway. For Orders above 30€ USA and Canada. For orders above 60€ If anyone in USA wants to combine for an order, let me know. I see several titles (including one of the Roach's) I'd like to have.

I'm American and I agree with you. Hino, to me, was not just copying what he heard on his newest Miles Davis album back then. Influenced by, of course. Mimicking, no. One guy I have studied a good bit in recent months is Kenny Cox, through his Strata records venture. The Blue Notes were not where his heart and ears were, he had something much more ecumenical in mind, for his music and for his record label. Listen to the "Location" and "Clap Clap" albums (and I recommend that you do), and you hear him heading in very distant shores from the Blue Notes, and you will not be thinking of the Miles Second Quintet as the starting point. They are not anywhere close to purist jazz, or even to post electric Miles jazz. Also well worth a listen for non-audiophiles is the Strata album of 1965 live recordings under Bert Myrick's name (though it seems like a Cox album in all but name. He plays piano and wrote two of the four cuts). George Bohanon is great on trombone. If I ever do another BFT and anyone actually listens to it, you'll likely hear Cox on it.

Nice price, too.

I'd be very interested in sampling that thread!

It is, I own it.

They'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony... "There Will Never Be Another You" by the OLD Seekers is one of my favorite songs. This group, not so much. But great price.

What kills those Enlightenment boxes for me is that they don't even bother to list personnel or recording/release dates. Just lazy. I had the Ahmad Jamal Enlightenment boxes, and "upgraded" to the Real Gone Jazz sets, which is a pretty sad commentary. I do have a couple of Enlightenment boxes, Zoot Sims and Phineas Newborn come to mind. Stuff I want on the shelves, but don't really play at all, and that has not been done very well by the other PD labels being discussed.

I have a Lowell Fulson 3-CD set they did, which was beautifully executed. If only I had ended up liking his music more...

WORD !!!

BFT 179 1- 1 - Right up my alley. Not knocked out by the solos, but love the sound and the groove, and would be very interested in owning this (if I don't already). 2- 2 - Obviously a tremendously gifted tenor player (and the guitarist is no slouch), but too “laid back” for my tastes. “Stranger in Paradise” 3- 3 - I think this has to be Gato Barbieri, probably A&M era or immediately afterwards. Really interesting use of secondary instruments. Really like this as a guilty pleasure. Barbieri did this sort of thing really well in the late-70’s and the 80’s, due to the inherent passion in his playing and his peerless tone. Hope I have this on the shelves somewhere. 4- 4 - Nice enough in background, but did not hold my attention. 5- 5 -Another really fine tenor player, who has done some serious listening to Joe Henderson. And I really like the rhythm section. Would also like to own this, would not be surprised if I already do. 6- 6 - Another great sounding tenor player and drummer, who obviously spend a lot of time listening to Coltrane and Elvin Jones. Puts me in mind of the John Klemmer Nexus set, which I have not heard in decades. Is this from that? Whatever it is, well worth hunting down. 7- 7 - Pretty exotic. I was ready to dismiss this early on, but it grew on me, and I’m now pretty curious to know what it is. Sort of a later-day update of some of those Ahmed Abdul-Malik albums. 8- 8 - Sounds like a cut from one of those Frank Lowe/Billy Bang albums, and I’d really like to know which one. Trying to pick them up as I find them at decent prices. I really like this a lot, Bang really consistently hits home for me. 9- 9 - I, of course, recognize the wonderful song, of which I have version by the Five Stairsteps, Beth Orton, and others. This spacey, interesting version is from that “hidden” CD (“The Choice”) in the Kamasi Washington “Heaven and Hell” set (and I also own it). I know that Washington is a very polarizing figure on this board. Given my tastes, I, of course, love what he is doing. 10- 10 - No doubt this is Frank Zappa? The style, the time/rhythm, and the guitar solo all sceam FZ. It’s certainly good for what it is, and I likely own it, but can’t place it. Bill, Loved this BFT, thanks so much, one of the few that speaks to where I am. You, Thom, and I need to keep sharing treasures with each other, as we seem to be coming from very similar places. Looking forward to the reveal, and hoping that some others will get into this fine music.
