Grant Green's Idle Moments is a top pick for me.

Were I you, I would post the same question in the forums at this site: http://www.head-fi.org/

This is a cool name.

Foreigner's 'Dirty White Boy'

I've only eaten there once, and I must admit, I really liked the food I got. But for heaven's sake, don't order the cheesecake! Talk about bland... ← To me, The Cheescake Factory is extremely overpriced, bland, generic food. For the same price as a generic Cheescake Factory meal, not to mention waiting an hour for a Cheesecake Factory table, I can venture into the foothills of Tucson and eat in a resort restaurant. The resort restaurant will feature no waiting, a French trained chef, and exquisite at-your-table service.

How many Byrd/Adams sets did you have to pay for?

Fry's Food Stores of Arizona. Also known as: the Arizona branch of Kroger.

And I've been working myself into a mood to purchase the Lou Donaldson box.

My comment is not intended as a dig against you, man. But, you gotta listen to the Elvin Jones set more than just twice. The more you listen, the better it gets.

I'd rather have good weather all the time. If I have to choose, hower, I'll take the 108° in trade for the 28° every time. Make now mistake, though, Phoenix is a HOT motherfucker.

104° at 10:00AM in Tucson, Arizona!

I gave up on Border's sometime during the Spring/Summer of the year 2004. The internet is my jazz source these days.

Because the tunes are so damned good?

Errr... could be time to see a doctor? Maybe not?

My vote goes to Dr. Jonas Salk.

Be careful, man. The eBay add says this Basra set features Joe Anderson. I've never heard of him. Yeah, this explains the low price tag.

Thanks. Now, I gotta get this set.

C'mon! Tell me more of why I need to get this set or why I don't. Feck.

Charlie Rouse. The owner of the original Monkophone.

Yes. I've got that one. I'm eyeing the Lou Donaldson now.

I haven't purchased a new Mosaic set in several weeks. I believe I'm in the mood to get my copy of the Lou Donaldson box. Tee hee hee. Lou Donaldson Mosaic Complete

I play my Mosaics as if they were single sets. I look up the original album sequence at the AllMusic site then set my CD player to play the given tracks in the order of the original album. However, this can't be done with all Mosaic sets.

I've seen the self-pics you've posted.......how do you know that you'll still have an interest in this stuff when you hit 85? ← I don't know. However, I hope it doesn't take THAT long for the Capitol Jazz box to reach OOP status.

I purchased the Byrd/Adams box a few months ago. As a result I had no reason to be involved in the fun of purchasing when the set was moved to Last Chance. Still, it was enjoyable to watch and read the posts about the set. The set contains some major players and shows just how quickly a good set can sell when it's about to go out of print. I'll be one of the Last Chance buyers if ever the Capitol Jazz box reaches the end of its Mosaic life.

I still see Michael Brecker as a young guy as well. A young guy playing saxophone with Steely Dan.
