Very cool news! (Johnny Richards, too!) Any info on the Christian?
-
What I meant were GRP/Impulse Master bonus tracks, not actual albums tracks. Universal hasn't done any reissues with bonus material for years now - the LPR series was the end of that, alas. Although the Amazon listings say there are bonus tracks on both the Scott and the Jackson, so who knows? Interesting! The "Love Cry" CD bonus tracks (from the GRP reissue) seem to be there as well! That's good news!

guess you need a weirdo audience for that (such as me)

Which is a contradictio in adiecto, of course, hence the grinning emoticon...

And try running some anti-malware stuff, too... Malwarebytes' Anti Malware is what I have... also got this after I'd been attacked (by one of these make-believe anti-virus things that stops your virus-programme from running - that was a nuisance!)

There's a whole run of these twofers coming from Universal over here... so far, word has been out on these: Albert Ayler - Love Cry / The Last Album Art Blakey - Jazz Messengers!!!!! / A Jazz Message Alice Coltrane - Universal Consciousness / Lord Of Lords Duke Ellington - Meets Coleman Hawkins / And John Coltrane Coleman Hawkins - Today And Now / Desafinado Milt Jackson - Statements / Jazz 'n' Samba Ahmad Jamal - Poinciana Revisited / Freeflight Elvin Jones - Illumination! / Dear John C. Sonny Rollins - On Impulse! / There Will Never Be Another You Pharoah Sanders - Village Of The Pharoahs / Wisdom Through Music Shirley Scott Trio - For Members Only / Great Scott!! Archie Shepp - For Losers / Kwanza Gabor Szabo - The Sorcerer / More Sorcery McCoy Tyner Trio - Inception / Reaching Fourth Too many contain one recently reissued album, alas, combining it with a rarer one (Shepp, Coltrane, Rollins) The Ayler is silly... would have made sense in this case to combine "The Last Album" with the companion album... also "Love Cry" had some fine bonus tracks that will be missing here for time (and "original album" crappity) reasons.

Yes, best wishes from me, too!

Help on discography for Mosaic Flip Phillips.
king ubu replied to Jazztropic's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Interesting, thanks! Looking forward to hear those transfers, Mike! -
Happy Birthday, Bertrand!

Thanks a lot for sharing that, Lazaro! Much appreciated! (Got to wait till I'm on my own computer to watch the video, alas - but thanks for that, too, niko!)

LF: Ray Bryant - Alone with the Blues OJC CD
king ubu replied to J.A.W.'s topic in Offering and Looking For...
Enjoy Hans! A mighty fine disc! -
I don't buy many DVDs, but amazon UK has some good offers that I now and then go for: The Jean-Pierre Melville Collection Prices tend to go up and down quite some... there's a Chabrol box that went for under 10£, also a Rohmer box was very cheap once. Worth watching if you're interested, and with some patience you might get some good deals. I also got some "artificial eye" DVDs for very good prices (the Tarkovsky Companion, the Vigo Collection, and some single editions) - I haven't been able to see a pattern with regard to the prices going up and down, but it seems sometimes they also sell of last copies of a whole bunch of stuff cheaply (the Tarkovsky set - this one here - has gone OOP and expensive now).

Help on discography for Mosaic Flip Phillips.
king ubu replied to Jazztropic's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I don't have my discographies with me, but I don't understand why you're asking this in the Flip Phillips thread then... it's not Flip on your version then, and there's no Tjader on the Esposito session with Flip (or the whole Flip Mosaic)... your basic question was to try and find out if your single version is the one with Flip from the Mosaic, I gather? And who's Claude Gilroy? Never even heard his name! Just found your old thread which has prompted this all... Fascinating! -
What mikeweil said above perfectly echoes my initial reaction to reading your opening post. I wish you all the best, Shawn! And I hope you'll get things settled and will be back very soon!

Of course not... I was just kind of bemused by Sangrey's (and some others) posts in the thread on the new Woody Allen flick... I thought you were talking about "art", not Woody Allen movies. don't hack on a non-native's choice of words, please... i meant arts, culture, music, literature, painting, religion, whatever... Not hacking on you, just at Woody Allen movies. Ok, but his films are part of what may be called "cultural practises" or some such... and I guess those could be looked at as escapist in general... or as evolutionary sensible (same with religion, btw)... either way, I'm on the run (gotta watch a commie film about Cuba... escaping from drab daily life )

I know - and would prefer that, too!

gongs?

I'm thinking if there's a difference between consuming arts as escapism and (pretending) not to.

the advanced search function has never really worked anyway... better go the google route, put in "[search terms] site:organissimo.org" and ye shall find what yer seeking.

Hmm -- Grappelli on piano also shows up as "Unique piano session - Paris 1955" Sounds like a bit of a novelty act frankly, so I will refrain from purchasing Improvisations for the third time. But still good to know. Probably not a deal-breaker but neither of these newer releases have the three bonus tracks which are on the JiP CD. Forgot to mention the lack of bonus tracks, yes... got the "Improvisations" Heritage Series (or whatever that series was called again) from the bins one day, and the piano music is fun but totally inessential.
-
You can buy "Improvisations" a third time, too... this edition here adds a ten inch trio album with Grappelli on piano ("Piano à Gogo" with Guy Pedersen and "Mac Kac" Reilles).
-
Not entirely sure, but perhaps the Grappelli Sextet is also new to the JiP series. There are a few Oscar Peterson/Grappelli collaborations but as quartets not a sextet. I'll definitely take a closer look when Dusty Groove gets this in stock. The Grappelli was out as "The Nearness of You", the one-off that appeared a while after the original JiP series had stopped! Oh, that's the one that took me forever to track down. They never did get it at DG, and I finally ordered it from Amazon.fr. Yes, I remember! For me, amazon.fr is usually the very best source to get these anyway! The new Collector's disc sell at 8€ a pop... with VAT deducted, I just ordered the Louiss, Simmons and Nathan Davis for €20.04, meaning it's 4 cent over the minimal sum to get free shipping!
