The beauty of the program is also that your collection will be stored in a database form, so you'll be able to export it as a whole or any album info to another computer running the Program; I suggest periodically backing it up on cd-rom. It can also serve as an insurance proof in case god forbid something happens to it. You can indicate the value of things you have. If you 're planning to do the massive cddb attack one day, try to run it on a pc at work, then export the database to your home machine. Laptop trays are much costlier to replace.

1. I did? I think we misunderstood each other. I always use cddb to load the info from the disk in a tray, but I never tried to do it in bulk, like you want. However, I don't know if that's impossible, so you may find an answer to this on the forum. The poit of using the cddb is that you don't have to enter the track titles and playing times manually. That's what it does for you and not much else. 2.Session dates. John, cddb wouldn't give you that info, but let's say you have 10 tracks on a cd and 5 were recorded on one date with one group, half on another date with a different group of musicians. Once you download the cddb track titles and times for it - In the TRACKS window double-click on one of the group of 5 tracks that you know were recorded on the same date with the same personel, enter info about recording dates, personel, etc, for that particular track, click on SAVE, then click on TEMPLATE, then click on FETCH, then ASSIGN, select the tracks you want to share that information and use previously manually-entered info as a template for the other 4 tracks. I know it sounds complicated, and it is. There's no other way of doing it to my knowledge. As I said before their forum is invaluable. It will take you a good while to learn how to use the program properly, and it's very time-consuming, but that's the way it is. Unless you have a secretary or someone who has the time to do it for you, be prepared to spend a good chunk of time with it. That's the [huge] downside. Once you master the program, the possibilities for cross-referencing will be almost infinite.

I am also a big fan. However, as opposed to those who don't like his Indo-Jazz Fusions and Indo-Jazz Suite, I am very fond of those LPs. It's a nice minority to be in. Have the two Redial cds as well. The original LPs constantly fetch big bucks on Ebay. Re:the Southern Horizons LP. Haven't played that one in a while. I remember liking one side of it much better than the other. Was it ever released on cd? Coincidentally, I recently bought Vandermark's Harriott Project promo poster. I think I'll cut off the bottom part and frame the picture. I didn't care much for that tribute anyway, but the photo is nice and big. .

Updated.

Can you guys comment on how much unreleased Wilson is on the Mosaic set?

Yet another musician I was going to see eventually. He used to play a Saturday afternoon gig somewhere in the East Village. Rest in Peace

Your profession and mine are both very susceptible, unfortunately. I hope you're under care of knowledgeable professionals. It can make all the difference. Feel better!

List updated, new stuff added.

Updated.

Good for you, Ed. That was quite a coincidence!

Except for the Stuff Smith So you found one? Ebay looks dry.

Mine did. I bought mine fairly soon after it was released and it does not have a metal spine. OK, let's take it easy, gentlemen. Mine didn't come with the metal spine either. The real question here is whether Mosaic will release the lp version of this.

Mine did.

Lon, we're in a war-time economy here. Every ounce of aluminum is vital!

Disc 2. 1. Gil Evans 2. ---- 3. ---- 4. 1970s Walt Dickerson. Not too much room for makes on this one. 5. ---- Pat Metheny? 6. ---- I like this! Nice 1970s groove. 7. Randy Weston 8. Zounds like Keith Jarrett 9. ---- Another Ornette-inspired track. Maybe Prince Lasha? 10. ---- Sounds like Jane Ira Bloom or something. 11. ---- Weird bass. No clue. Time to check the answers.

OK, this is the first time I'm doing this, so I'm not supposed to look at the others' answers before I put down mine, right? Disc 1. 1. ---- 2. Woody Shaw 3. ---- It's a good one! 4. ---- Alto player sounds damn great. The whole band is killin'. 5. ---- Don Pullen? 6. Jeanne Lee. The other singer I can't tell. 7. Johnny Griffin - Soft and Furry. Love that tune. 8. ---- These people know their Ornette. 9. Duke 10. Trane 11. ---- I like this. Guitar player sounds like Joe Minasi. OK, off to check the answers. Will do Disc 2 manana.

GO Shawn!! I got one of these in my closet. They say Christmas is a good time to sell them..

Writer Gilyarovsky had an ex libris that read "this book was stolen from the library of Gilyarovsky". Don't remember if it was effective.
