  1. No one needs counts (except for guillotines ) Not sure I have any earlier releases on Acrobat at home -- Ok, found one more - CD-R as well, Herts. address there: https://www.amazon.de/Jazz-At-Philharmonic-Seattle-1956/dp/B005EN4JKK/
  2. this is the Tubby Hayes in question: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Tempo-Recordings-1955-59-Tubby/dp/B00B7GBJP6 not sure there's any address, the inlay can be seen there (just a website there)
  3. Okay, got to revisit it ... wasn't that enthralled upon first listen I'm afraid (enjoyed the recent "Nightconcert" more).
  4. Still unwilling to buy again, even more so if the Retrieval needs to stay (for the additional material) ... is sound that much better that it's worth considering so?
  5. Yup, selling CD-Rs "undercover" is really a shame. And indeed I have that Tubby Hayes set as well (not sure there was a second one after that). Their booklets also are good-quality home-made prints, the paper is not what you usually get. I stopped buying their product. Not sure if this is different with R&B reissues the do, but I guess numbers of sold units and storage costs just don't add up.
  6. Not available yet in yurp it seems ... I'm interested!
  7. Thanks! Hoping for the best!
  8. "Ready Take One" was compiled from several sessions, do you mean that one?
  9. Possibly he has read it ... my point was just that it doesn't show in what I find a pretty bad review.
  10. Thanks - I was bit confused by all the posts and Dan's kinda "in the know" announcement ... will be waiting for the new release to hit the usual suspects then
  11. Okay, so you are just distributing/selling, not part of the Uptown outfit?
  12. I'm a bit confused ... is this an edition of 20 or will this eventually also be available through the usual outlets (such as jazzmessengers.com)?
  13. Was actually hoping for a review to turn up, so thanks .... but I'm not quite sure Mr. Hajdu has actually read the book (at least I will not buy one of *his* books, that's for sure), more just flipped around in it and then written what was clear already anyway. Anyone here has started reading and can share some first impressions?
  14. Alas no. I have "Eight Years" on the frighteningly high reading pile, too (have read some of it online though - not sure how different the book versions will be, or if at all).
  15. tonight: Sylvie Courvoisier – Julian Sartorius Teju Cole’s ‘Shadow Point’ with Sylvie Courvoisier, Tom Arthurs, Julian Sartorius
  16. They shall bring many hours of listening pleasure over the years to come, I'm quite sure
  17. so the funeral was bitter thus the band drank beer or the bitter beer led to the band being funeralised or maybe the bitter band had a beer at the funeral possibly also the funeral was bitter about having to settle for what beer the band left behins (none, possibly?) not quite sure, but the ECM album is indeed wonderful
  18. No idea ... but teh backcover on discogs gives listings of soloists and Cherry is mentioned on all but the final piece: https://www.discogs.com/de/Bitter-Funeral-Beer-Band-With-Don-Cherry-K-Sridhar-Live-In-Frankfurt-82/release/1283163
  19. Certainly the A'dam gig with the ICP guys would be great fun ... no gig near enough to me to make it, alas.
  20. No, they don't (but a related label did the "Peace Treaty" CD by Davis, I think ... and not sure if the "Barney Wilen Quintet" reissue doesn't come from that corner - but CDs are not running under "Sam Records"). Recently, they did the Monk "Liaisons" on vinyl, right? CD was available from a different label ... would be great if the Davis did turn up on CD as well, but I'm still tempted by the vinyl, although with custom taxes added it will end up quite expensive indeed (some 75-80 € I guess).
  21. two ... speaking of both albums (ICP 025 and ICP 026), not sure which is the oh-so-horrible-sounding one
  22. They ought to re-do the great Nichols/Monk stuff - one of them, at least half an album (LP-side I guess) is almost unlistenable in the box, alas.
