Now $45 Not sure how that works for you (with VAT and shipping), but 42 € at amazon.de might be a rather good offer? 42 Eur is more expensive than $45. Yeah, I know, that's why I was asking about VAT and shipping - to me, it would end up cheaper for sure, but I woulnd't know about delivery to Israel.

Ya know, they had wigs with integrated metronomes back then ... and George Washington had false teeth of wood (and his mouth emitted a rotten foulish stench) ... but then wood was good in a way, since it did help Ludwig van catch some sounds, putting a piece of it into his mouth, the other end on the piano (guess if he had wooden teeth, too, it would have been to no avail, but how wood, ahm, I know?)

Pre-ordered one, too ... not sure I really need all of it, even more so as I have what I guess are the most essential ones (Sextant, Headhunters, Thrust) and a couple of others, too ... but hey, it's closing time!

Sure hope the bidder had his commas right! And Blue Train, you seem like a fetishist, too, always having to chime in with your facts not fiction creed ... it does get tiring. Your facts are very often one man's opinion (namely yours). It's not worth boiling it up all the time, makes the impression your a facts-not-fiction-fetishist with no life (and little grip on how facts and fiction are related or how facts are "made"). Sorry, don't want to get personal, but your on-going lamento is really asking for it.

long live Mose indeed!

Like Carla and Steve playing "Rut"? The board does not forget

Well, I know - besides, that's a good LP!

The thing is, if you've buying other stuff, have rough plans of what you want to get when, it's just impossible to do Japanese at the same time, too ... either you save your money and then run to buy the next fifty, or by the time you'll have the first dozen, there will be 200 new ones out, and a year later, they're all gone again ... so there's that. I did get a couple of Toshiba's EMI reissues though and enjoy them (not speaking of audio crap, just got them because they were not around elsewhere), but usually it's a bit of a hassle even with items I really want. That may just be my feelings about it, but well yeah, there's that. And sorry Hans, of course I was joking!

Well no, that's on the LP

Yup, their disc with Neneh Cherry seems to be huge in some circles ... (it wore rather thin to my ears, after five or six spins though).

... and available for a mind-boggling seventeen days

106 € on amazon.de and a cool cover, too:

God sent Indie Rock as a punishment (no idea what for, don't blame me!) and now we also have to suffer through Indie Jazz? Please, no! Another style alltogether, but why not try Tortoise?

Pre-ordered three of them a few days ago and just received mails telling me the estimated delivery date was postponed into early January ...

can't say anything, but there's been a previous thread:

Various dates of birth around, 1911, 1913, 1916 ... happy birthday anyways, no matter if it's the hundreth or any other one!

guess it's finally the moment for someone to build that time machine

Yeah ... hadn't read the title ... too late now So make this the post in a thread that appears in a thread that it doesn't appear in .... or some such

Happy Birthday, Ronald!

not, not? sure about that coma?

John Coltrane: Blue Train Lush Life The Believer Black Pearls Stardust Bahia Tanganyika Strut (w/Wilbur Harden) Giant Steps My Favorite Things Olé Impressions Ascension Kulu Sé Mama Expression Sun Ship Om Stellar Regions some old favourites!

Noble enough, but I take it, then, that you never, never, never ever buy ANY of the "Proper" boxes either and would rate them in the same camp. No Chrono Classics, no Timeless, no Hep, no JSP, no Mosaic of stuff that's older than 70 years, no Japanese reissues of PD material? This is getting silly. I've bought from jazzmessengers.com since they sell lots of labels that are hard to come by for me elsewhere (have to be bought locally for 250% of regular prices or have to imported from the US with ridiculous shipping fees), labels like Steeplechase, Pi, Tzadik, Uptown ... guess there's no way in making sure not a cent goes towards vending (manufacturing? people state it's all the same and jazzmessengers is part of it as if they knew ... it would not surprise to learn as much, no sir, but if you have secret record and proof, why not show?) PD stuff ... but then if you go to Starbucks, you will also silently donate to the NRA and other morons, so ... and remember, Concord is the label of Kenny the G'ster, so boycot them, too now, willya?

Max Brüel - Vol. 1: Nondescript, Garlic Wafer, Lover Man (Metronome MEP 118, 45 rpm EP) got this as a gift from someone I "met" on another board ... very good! and now:
