US region code only it seems... and almost 35$ from amazon.com - crap! Not for me then...

That sounds very interesting! Got to look for the film, too! (oh, and here's an "e" for them )

Oh, I love drinking christmas trees!

Coleman can be heard on alto on some early sessions (Lee Morgan, Max Roach), I think.

You eat your dates? Isn't that... kind of... cannibalistic? Welcome back!

No, the error amounts to one channel being entirely missing, while on that channel, the other one is duplicated. That does not amount to a real mono-mix - it is mono, but it misses lots of "information".

Hey, chewy, is there a road straight from Californication to Bantu Village? Guess that's quite a ride

which they do, of course...

That's somewhat of an issue indeed... silly enough, but it might be best to buy it now, complain and receive a fixed set later on. And it would seem to me that if you buy it later on and happen to get a faulty set, they should still offer a replament then...

Just got a reply - same 6-8 weeks statement and promise to get a whole new box! Good enough for me if it works out (about which I'm rather positive!)

Ah, that one... it's on my wishlist on dustygroove... with several dozen others - these are coming out too fast for me!

Did you ever call him up?

Cherry and Bley will be on the Sanders 4CD set - that one looks like a treasure trove of goodies!

Someone reported a reply above... me, I've not gotten one, but then I've only written this weekend.

Which Rae/Mann are you talking of?

So, has anyone tried asking for replacements for "Sings the Blues"? The bonus tracks are listed in the booklet but they aren't there...

That sounds rather cool! Thanks! The new Watts will definitely be better than the crappy Get Back version! (I don't have it, but I was happy to replace the various Get Back Ayler CDs I had, even though I paid a fortune for them.)

With Miles on organ, then...

It is because they chose to not ship internationally any longer, I think. It's a vendor's choice, I always assumed. Some of the sellers (not Newbury Comics though) are present on priceminister.com, too.

Not much interest for Clarke or Duke (though I do enjoy the MPS box of Duke's). VSOP sounds like a fine idea though... Played the Shorter (sans the WR compilations) and mostly enjoyed it, though honestly I don't yet quite know what to make of the 80s music. The big surprise was "Native Dancer" - very beautiful album!

George Coleman was one of the first of the "old" guys I saw live... when he was on tour with Ahmad Jamal (there's an official release from Paris). They played a long (85min) festival set, Jamal opening in trio (with James Cammack and a fiery Idris Muhammad) and after half an hour, Coleman joined. I got in for free (or rather: for handing out some flyers at the end) and was standing at the side, but right front, a few metres next to Coleman, watching him play... very fond memories there! Never managed to catch him again afterwards, not even sure he ever made it to a nearby place. Anyway, that Zurich concert was broadcast in its entirety and I revisited it many times!

It's indeed those "fulfilled by Amazon" it seems, that won't be shipped outside of the US. I still don't get it... I mean I can order from Amazon and from Newbury Comics on their own... I guess that's why minus and minus equals plus or some such...

I thought Miles was the policeman and Sting interjected a bit of 'cod French' into the intro? Sorry, but I really don't give a **** about that This would likely be about the first Miles album I'd trash... (Doo-Wop can go along with it... never got "Dingo" yet, maybe the one official MD release I don't have, except for a few Japanese ones)

Mine's okay, too - just searched and checked.
