Details on the EMI box (doesn't look that enticing to me): http://www.amazon.fr/EMI-Eminence-Collection-Various/dp/B00APPSH9G/

Not many details given in the box: disc four info, page 78 of the box/book: it's a splendid set, btw, I enjoy having it a lot, even though I've already had most of the music in other editions!

golfer swallowed by 18 foot sinkhole

well, there seems to be that other po' fella who was gulped in his sleep never to be burped out again ... guess golf playin' folk just ain't down to earth 'nuff -
sorry, my smartphone didn't show me the latest post, it seems (or rather, I don't know where to see if I'm viewing the latest page). so, next one: Carlo Azeglio Ciampi Gigi Campi Beniamino Gigli

I see your point and can endorse it for sure! It's just that with Coltrane Reference, the chronology half (documenting gigs etc) was much more intriguing to me than the actual discography half of the book. But of course I could learn some from that part, too ... some of the releases are messy (the notorius Fantasy box is the worst), and some of the chopped up late session were interesting to read up, too. The bad thing is just that any printed discography will be outdated as soon as it's fixed on paper ... I guess it would be cool to put the entire discography online somewhere. If they don't want to give it away for free, put a coupon into the book or something like that ... But regardless, it's a huge achievment (and I will buy a second edition, too, call me crazy! I went for the first a year or so ago, when the paperback was still unsure). So you're doing a Tjader book? A discography? Anyway, that's cool! And if the Gryce book really comes out again, I won't miss it this time!

Which Jazz box set are you grooving to right now?
king ubu replied to Cliff Englewood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
into disc three now - some magnificient stuff here! -
It's a great book! And while I'd love it to update automatically, I don't really care much about updates with regard to new European bootlegs of live concerts - to me, it's more interesting to follow Trane nearly day-by-day. The chronology hence is the much more interesting half of the book to me (I have probably 98% of the recorded music anyway and know on which disc to find what ... call me an ignorant, but I've always been more into having all session info there, rather than knowing that track number seventeen was on this and that various artists compilation, too ... on the other hand, it can be very helpful to actually hunt down some particular track, but then that's not an issue with Coltrane, it's almost all there anway!)

Have you tried "Coltrane Reference" and the updates on David Wild's site? Here's the 1960 additions with some info/updates on March 28: http://www.wildmusic-jazz.com/jcr_1960.htm And here's 1961 with additions/updates on the Africa/Brass session: http://www.wildmusic-jazz.com/jcr_1961.htm

Miles Davis - The Complete Lost Quintet Recordings Still there ... before played the second set from Stockholm (just put together a disc without "This", not that it would really matter ...), and now Rotterdam. Amazing stuff! -
just the sax, mam-crime pursuit music
king ubu replied to alocispepraluger102's topic in Miscellaneous Music
I enjoy that one pretty much, too! It was reissued on CD by Sony France (I think) fairly recently. Around the time they did those Dave Bailey and Charlie Rouse Epic reissues, too, I think. -

Ronnie Scott's, London, 1969-11-02 love that stuff! Salle Pleyel, Paris, 1969-11-03 This stuff is better than what Sony chose for the (great to have and very, very good) set. -

Miles Davis - The Complete Lost Quintet (well no, you can't *buy* it, but it's floating like two sperm whales) right now: the speed-fix of Vienna, October 31, 1969 - pretty darn good! and the audience booed and walked out to large parts, it seems ... how I wish I'd been around in those days! -
Are there any box bargains currently available?
king ubu replied to GA Russell's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
(sorry, wrong thread) -
I always do google searches ... got the above hits by entering "why not site:organissimo.org" - works much better than the board search function (which will not deliver any results for three-letter words anyway, I think).

Digression thread: Coherence is overrated

I agree to agree. -
Happy Birthday!

Hm, tricky stuff then ... the bonus tracks would also not be PD as they were released much later?
-
That really sucks indeed! I've got all the impressed/re-pressed CDs (except for "Return Visit", which is in the RRK box) and the entire NY album plus that half album tagged on at the end, plus Spillett's liner notes, would have been enough for me to buy it, but like this, that's really much less that case!
-
previous thread: wasn't aware the NY album was part of this box ... if it had been in there in its entirety, that alone would have been reason enough to buy it!
