Lon, which Evans box are your talking about? Maybe the Village Vanguard box, which is spectacular in every regard (including low price). Sorry s, the "box" was really a typo, I meant issues, individual cds. I meant the recent "Waltz for Debbie." I'm buying any part of the Riverside/Milestone Evans box set that is K2 or 24 bit remastered, etc. Lon - have you compared Waltz for Debbie to the Evans Village Vanguard box (which contains Waltz for Debbie) from a few years ago?

Jetman and JAW Out of curiosity - have you guys compared the Mosaic to the Wounded Birds? I have.

I'm diggin' it. And the sound is great.

This one is from the Verve Super Best 50 series,24 super bit. POCJ-9225. I have the OBI strip and it comes in a resealable strong plastic sleeve for the cover, cloth sleeve for the disc. The condition is near mint. $20 delivered to a US address.

I am offering what is described as the "new edition", so this must have been the second or third one. It has a copyright date of 1994 and has Ellington on the cover at the piano. The book is has a crease mark on the spine, but there is no writing or missing or loose pages. $25.00 delivered to a US address.

Jetman Yes to my ears, really. That Mosaic box was quite a long time ago, I assume they can do things better now.

I picked these up and I am very happy. Not surprisingly, the sound is superior to the Mosaic box set. enjoy!!

I love "Stan Getz Plays" - is the other material on this set of that quality?

JSangrey and Guy, Thanks for your helpful input and insights!!!

I believe there was a thread about this - was it the John Szwed biographry or was it a book about the various groups in the fusion/electric jazz movement? I can't find what I thought I had read previously - maybe I dreamed it.

Any further comments on the Japanese cd of one of the concerts? See mine above. This just screams for a remaster, don't you think?

Wave and Tide are mostly if not all instrumental. Stone Flower is a mix, more vocal than instrumental IIRC. Thanks TTK

Ok but what about my question - are the CTI albums purely instrumental????

I am a fan of the Louvin Brothers. A talented guy to be sure.

Does Jobim sing on those CTI recordings, use anothother vocalist, or are they purely instrumental? Have to say that I am partial to Jobim's songs being sung by Joao Gilberto.

Lon and others, Thanks for the suggestions. It is a real mystery. The TV remote has a button called "view Mode" which now everytime I press it says "not available". I have tried going through the menu to change the settings but can't get anywhere. Of course I can change the aspect ration on the DVD player, but for a couple of DVDs, the TV settings work better.

This is in great shape for the most part. The cover box shows some significant wear on the edges. 2 of the 3 discs are flawless, one disc has about 1/8 light inch long scuff mark, does not affect playability at all. Booklet is in excellent shape. $40 delivered to a US address.

In my case, both the TV and DVD players allow for adjustment of the aspect ratio. What is strange is that after putting in the HDMI cable, when I try to change the aspect via the TV remote, it says "not available" Maybe it is the TV is going on the blink, because today I noticed the same problem when I try to change aspect when not watching DVDs, but on cable. thought I could change it before, seems not now. Weird.

I got one of these HDMI cables (replacing component cables) to go between my dvd player and HDTV and while I do like the picture, it seems that now I can not change the aspect ratio from the TV remote. on 99% of dvds, this does not matter as it appears to automatically choose the right aspect, but on a couple it does not Does the HDMI cable affect this or perhaps something is up with the TV.

I picked this up yesterday and while I am very impressed with the performance, I wish the recording were as good. There seems to be a bit of distortion and in particular the horns buzz a bit - not terrible but not great either
