The PS3's only major flaw is its noisiness (besides not being region free).

one day late on it ! It's still available at Jazzmessengers. For people in the EU ? World: free shipping on all orders above €60 (regular mail) and €120 (TNT Courier) The Stitt box costs €144

And how skilled was your pinky in rolling back in exposed tape?

After previewing the music I've come to the conclusion I probably underestimated the quality and diversity of it. I thought it would all be along the lines of Change and Cuscuna mentioned in the liner notes to that it was the most successful of the free dates with Sam Rivers in this period. Anyway, the set is mastered by Malcolm Addey who did excellent work on the Andrew Hill big box and Passing Ships.

A Sinclair ZX81.

Does this mean Columbia vinyl lasts about as long as a Pirelli F1 tyre?

Andrew Hill is one closer to being gone.

"Craig Proulx says he has discarded scratched CDs, but still has cassette tapes from his childhood." And I'm sure they sound wobbly as hell. A secure FLAC rip from a CD on the other hand lasts a lifetime.

Sorry, can't help myself. I have to post this: "Yeah, well, that's like, your opinion, man!"

I took photos of the package upon delivery. It smelled and fungus had formed on the box and book. The whole thing (packaging and box set) was still completely soaked. I did not attempt to open the shrink-wrapped CDs (I had no desire to keep them) until after they had responded to my e-mail.

The show is too bleak and nasty for me (I read most of the books). After the first season I started using the fast forward button more and more.

So not Yorkshire.

After listening some more to these discs, I don't believe they are worse as far as loudness is concerned than other well received modern remasters like the Coltrane Originals & Hip-O Selects. I agree too much highs can be grating. Miles Davis' Milestones as contained in the Complete Columbia Albums Collection is a worse offender imo. Every time I play that my ears need a little time to adjust. It's a shame I no longer own the Atlantic Masters discs of Changes One & Two. On those discs the heavy bass gave me a headache on headphones. There were also some small noises/imperfections audible on headphones that were not on the 1993 Rhino CDs. I just now picked up a similar distortion on track 1 of the Japanese Changes Two. Could these Japanese CDs be the same as the Atlantic Masters, at least for part of the process of remastering?

First impression is that these are all worthwhile purchases. Changes One seemed an improvement over the 1993 disc. More detailed highs. A nice heavy detailed bass sound, not overpowering. Better than the piece of shit Atlantic Masters (2005) release. This series is not only a tad loud, but it also has boosted highs - not annoyingly so, but still... I'm not a fan of this kind of "modern mastering" - and that's putting it mildly - but, as I said before, the series is listenable as far as I'm concerned. I may change my mind on second listening, though. Which CDs do you prefer for the Coleman and Mingus Atlantics? The Beauty is a Rare Thing and Passion of a Man box sets? The early CDs that were mastered by Steve Innocenzi (not all albums were released in that early CD batch) and indeed those two boxes. With limited reissues of favorite albums I'm generally afraid of missing out on something good. Perhaps I should concentrate exclusively on albums that are not yet part of my collection, like the Lloyds.

I'm about to watch Hannibal episode 7. Only Breaking Bad is likely to surpass Hannibal for me this year. Justified was also excellent.

So do I. As far as books about Jazz musicians go, Robin D. G. Kelley's Thelonious Monk, The Life and Times of an American Original is a favourite.
