  1. Just getting a long, live "Katrina Ballerina" alone was enough to pull me in.
  2. I have it, will give it another listen, thanks.
  3. I'll do that on the Sgt. Pepper's. I bought the new one last year and thought it sounded fantastic, but did not A-B it against the original. Of course, they designed it in '67 to be heard in mono, so probably didn't' put as much into the stereo,
  4. Highly recommended!!!
  5. The tunes on the Shaw are not on the other live CD's by this group. so I ordered it and am realling looking forward to it. Also ordered the Elvin Jones and am looking to get the Hubbard. The final Shaw albums on Muse (Setting Standards, Solid, Imagination) were not enjoyable experiences for me, nor was the "In Your Own Sweet Way" album (though maybe I need to revisit them). Maybe just a case of heightened expectations on my part given what had preceded them, but they were really tame affairs to my ears.
  6. What is the net impact of the remix? Are there different lengths to the cuts? Different instruments brought up or down in the mix?
  7. PM sent on $12 Freddie Hubbard Quintet "At Onkel Po's Carnegie Hall" Hamburg 1978 Jazz Line NDR $7 Kenny Wheeler- Alan Skidmore Swiss Radio Days Volume 28
  8. 40th anniversary edition still gives you best bang for the buck, but this one's certainly inexpensive enough.
  9. Thanks. Yeah, I'm definitely looking at the Elvin.
  10. For me, that's pricey. But that's not my question.
  11. I'm sure the music on the Shaw is excellent. Question. The disc is pricey. I own a LOT of live Shaw from the 70's/80's. On the margin, does this disc add anything new in terms of understanding/personnel/repertoire to things like the Half Note label releases, or is it just another typically excellent show from the same period? For that matter, same question on the Hubbard. Thx.
  12. Well, yeah. Started listening, and then immediately ordered me one off of discogs, thanks so much!
  13. Good eye. Sure looks like it on the first three. May well all be from the same photo shoot. Standards looks different to me.
  14. I did, but was not overwhelmed by it, so I'd be glad to move it on to another member,
  15. He's done "Mystery of Love" for decades. This rendition of that tune is what made me fall in love with Weston back in the mid-70's, this album being my introduction to him. I bought a cutout of this because of the presence of Billy Harper, who I had discovered on the last Lee Morgan album.
  16. Sort of. I can print using a USB cable, but not wireless. But that is close enough for me - we only occasionally use the printer for my wife's work, and I have an HP inkjet I use for day-to-day.
  17. Astounding that he is so active at 92. Is Roy Haynes (now 93) still performing?
  18. My experience with Amazon is to trust the track listing. Also, Amazon always will quickly make anything right. Customer service is incredible.
  19. Jimi Hendrix "West Coast Seattle Boy" box for 11.74 lbs. from Amazon.co.uk. $18.83 shipped to USA. https://www.amazon.co.uk/West-Coast-Seattle-Boy-Anthology/dp/B0044DE8FW/ref=as_li_ss_tl?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=XSPEHV1XTGK0CZZ5BYAS&linkCode=ll1&tag=superdeluxeed-21&linkId=2d3e4ce5702c25571d7c905dd10c2574
  20. Would be nice if some label would make a twofer of the two Terry 60's Prestige LP's. Would make sense for some label like BGP.
  21. Thanks! Never would have guessed Hank Jones!
  22. Been there, done that too many times...
  23. The Apataw CD of the Land sounds far superior to the Japanese CD, and includes a great bonus cut not on the Japanese CD. You're right, those Mainstream discs always sounded a little strange, even on vinyl.
  24. One of all-time my favorite pieces of music, regardless of genre. Major talents on this, Eddie Henderson, Gary Bartz, Carlos Garnett (who wrote it), Jean Carn, Hubert Laws Connors himself. And some interesting lesser names, like Hubert Eaves, Reggie Lucas, Anthony Jackson, and Lawrence Killian. So do we just dismiss it as a "sell out" because it has vocals and because Connors has a strange suit on? This cut speaks to me as much as anything by a lot of the heavyweights we worship around here. And Gillian, this would sound great on your Anthology.
