Awww shit no. This is sad.

how 'bout dutch treats?

ok... got to dig out "We Want Miles"... and look around some

Needless to say I'd love to get a proper release of all of this material, but for now I'll just be happy with my old French CD... and I think I might have some of the Philology stuff somewhere, too... but those are such a mess, I rarely think of them since I want to figure out stuff and that takes hours with Philology's Bird's Eyes! Yeah... some kind of "Deluxe/Legacy Edition" as Warner just did for "Tutu" would be cool!

Losin says... about the additional tracks from Paris: Paris, May 9, 1949 7 The Squirrel 12" LP: Phontastic NOST 7602 CD: Philology Volume 19 (W 849), Jazz Factory JFCD 22882 8 Crazy Rhythm CD: Philology Volume 19 (W 849), Jazz Factory JFCD 22882 9 All the Things You Are CD: Philology Volume 19 (W 849), Jazz Factory JFCD 22882 Paris, May 15, 1949 1 Blues Final (incomplete) [Farewell Blues] (S. Bechet) 4:54 Shorter version (3:46) on all issues except Vogue YX-0001 and JFCD 22882 1 Blues Final (incomplete) 12" LP: Bird in Paris CP-3, Durium-Cicala BLJ-8024, Spotlite LP-118, Toho/Vogue YX-0001 CD: Philology Volume 12 (W 842), Volume 61 (892), FAP 001/3, Jazz Factory JFCD 22882

So, had to look up this "Miles Miles Miles" that you all seem to know and own: Never heard of it! If it's as good as "We Want Miles", I'm really hoping Sony will bring this on, too! Same for the Antibes sets by the lost quintet... and the full "Miles at Fillmore" sets. Since these are all Sony-owned, I hope they will be part of this new series or see reissues in some other form!

As for Paris 1949... there was an old french CD using this LP cover: Wasn't aware it's rare or anything... The info from Sony says that the dvd first appeared officially in the Complete Classic Album box set. The final two tracks on the Paris '49 disc were not on the original lp. Not sure they were on the first Japanese or French cds. . . Edit to add: no, those two were not on the original cds. Not sure where or when they first appeared. Thanks - hadn't read it very closely (obviously, DOH) THe French CD has nine tracks: Rifftide Good Bait Don't Blame Me Lady Bird "Wah" "Hoo" (funny spelling) Allen's Alley Embraceable You Ornithology All the Things You Are

So now that the DVD's tracklist is out - is it indeed the same as on the monster box? As for Paris 1949... there was an old french CD using this LP cover: Wasn't aware it's rare or anything...

"Night Train" is funnily one I've still not been able to get too much pleasure out of yet. From that time, I much prefer "Affinity"!

Thanks! So the only remaining rarity there will be the second disc of "We Want Miles" material... now that would make a great upcoming Miles Bootleg Series volume, too!

Isn't the Tatum comparison overstretched? There's lots more of Nat Cole there... at least to my lacking lousy ears.

Cool! (For someone who owns the big sucker: again, is that the same that was on the DVD included there?) Several of these sets were recently re-broadcast in very, very good quality... will be great to have those officially, for sure! The old boots I guess have mostly long been surpassed in quality by what's circulating among collectors/traders. Rooster: it will most likely be the Antwerp concert, not the Rotterdam (though that one's around in excellent quality, too).

The ones I could buy are ordered by years, not by artists. And the booklets are dedicated to two bandleaders each, and included track-by-track comments, too... guess I'll have to return tomorrow to check again!

I grew to like Peterson a lot - and me, myself, was most surprised of it! Got to check out the Iverson post, thanks for mentioning it!

Not sure... I'm totally unfamiliar with Time Life, sorry. Might be these: http://www.bsnpubs.com/warner/time-life/04swing/04swing.html So they'd be re-recordings... didn't have enough time to really read anything, but the booklets had portraits of two artists each (bandleaders), then there was a track-by-track part, which upon quick glance looked like it was all different bands, but it always said "xxx version" after the track title, so it wasn't the original tune but rather someone's version... and to note that would make lots of sense if it was indeed the Billy May re-recordings. And 1930-1936 is definitely missing - each 3LP box covers two years. (I mean: missing in the used book store where I saw them.)

Hm... silly me didn't take any notes... saw a series (5 boxes) of 3LP sets dedicated to the big band era today, could pick them up very cheaply (about 30$ for all of them, maybe 35$ now that the $ is worth shit). Anyone knows more about these sets? Each of them covers two years... didn't yet have a closer look... went to the used bookstore, then to watch the damsels of Rochefort (lovely!) and in the meantime forgot what these darn boxes were called exactly... rings a bell with anyone? Recommended?

Rotterdam (most recent radio broadcast on VARA in 2005): 1. Footprints [inc/fade-in] 5:42 2. 'Round Midnight 7:27 3. No Blues 13:09 4. On Green Dolphin Street 9:23 5. Riot 4:24 6. Masqualero 7:27 Older versions had an announcement and the full "Footprints". Can anyone who has the DVD from the big Miles box compare the setlists of the known parts of Stockholm and Karlsruhe? Here's what was on the Miles '67 Tree - is all of it on the DVD? Stockholm - 1967-10-31 1. Agitation > 2. Footprints > 3. 'Round Midnight > 4. Gingerbread Boy > 5. The Theme Karlsruhe - 1967-11-07 1. Agitation > 2. Footprints > 3. 'Round Midnight > 4. No Blues > 5. Masqualero > 6. I Fall in Love Too Easily > 7. Riot > 8. Walkin' 9. On Green Dolphin Street > 10. Gingerbread Boy > 11. The Theme

Very cool! Though of course I was hoping for a larger box... What's going to be on the DVD? Wasn't there a 1967 European concert DVD inside the big Miles box? What concert was used there? Re: Bootleg Series: they did a pair of Johnny Cash sets, too - but they're fairly recent releases.

Found the Vogue reissue (titled "Blues March") of the first Roulette album (originally titled "Backgammon"). Haven't yet played it, but would have passed by if it wasn't for this thread... heard "Keystone 3" many, many years ago (a highschool friend had it), guess it would be one to look for... also plan to get the Sesjun set (but want the J.J. Johnson more badly there! Got the Chet and Evans).

Thanks a lot, Niko! The rhythm section is given in the Jazzwax post from May: Moe Wechsler (piano), George Duvivier (bass) and Gary Chester (drums)

Great cover! As for additional music: would be cool... but a Japanese reissue won't include any, will it?

And what album is that anyway? Or what albums, if there are indeed two?
