Check this out, apparently the first of many: James Brown Federal Years

Yeah, both sets are a must purchase. The Elvin box is great, especially the ones with Joe Farrell.

Can someone tell me why this is getting so much press? I never thought of him as a big cultural icon.

Since Pluto is no longer classfied as a planet, I guess the shipping rates go though the roof?

Not that expensive when Criterions normally list for $25 - $40.

I would find it hard to believe that the Gillespie set would have sold that many copies already.

I received my second batch of 30 cds yesterday. All accounted for, uncluding a bunch of K2s.

They don't send the sets in numerical order.

I agree. I usually insist on airmail deliveries because I've found them to be quicker and have never lost an item. Surface mail takes 4-6 weeks, and items get damaged even if you've double boxed and padded the item.

Sounds fine to my tin ears.......

I was talking to bertrand about this issue and it is not only unfair, but bad service. Those who ordered first should have priority on those missing cds.

Sounds like the movie makes for a great rental, but not worth the $9 to go to the theater.

You've seen this on the Concord music group site? 6 cd Coltrane box set coming out in September?

My third order is coming in. All 30 titles have been shipped.

THIS is a great box!!!

I've cut 99% of my regular tv viewing, excepting a rare sports event and the evening news. I watch a lot of dvds instead.

Holy moley!

This is a very good horror movie. The Brits have been cranking out some fine ones over the past few years.

Happy Birthday Lon!

Listened to both Jon Eardley cds. Recommended if you like that mid 50's bop sound - the one with Phil Woods and Zoot Sims is very nice!

The last two tracks aren't on the double lp because they were a Herbie Mann led session?

I have a crappy lp to cd burn of this album, and I had put it in my ipod to listen while I walk to work. I forgot what a great album this is! I would like to get the real thing, but a cd does not seem to be available online though the obvious sources. Does anyone know where I can find it?

No, it's all unissued, early 70's material.

More importantly, are they going to add more??
