My first impressions are very favorable as well. This one will be in rotation for quite some time.

Thanks! Just ordered Calypso Blues and Off Limits.

...part of the OSX 10.4.11 upgrade (and I assume Leopard as well).

I just rec'd this one last week and this is probably my favorite edition of the Herman Herds. Nistico, Hanna, Nat Pierce and some great arranging/writing. A gem! Marla Totally agree. I already had about half of this material; I'm happy to have everything in one very nice package. Mosaic comes through again!

Woody Herman Philips Recordings (Mosaic, MS-031)

I bought the first generation model and have been very happy with it other than the small display. Mostly, I've been using it to record band practice. I've also used it for some basic multitracked home recording. The mic emulation software is pretty decent. A nice inexpensive useful device.

I'm planning in 2009 to remodel my house in a craftsman style, so I guess I'm a craftsman furniture fan as well.

Currently in route... Gidon Kremer- Kancheli: In L'istesso Tempo- ECM

John Abercrombie wishes you all the best... Happy Birthday!

Ditto on the shipping notification for both "Woody" and "Boogie"

Looks to be on Intuition records.

The Complete Pacific Jazz Recordings Of The Chico Hamilton Quintet

I believe this release is already out in Europe and Japan. Coming to the U.S. sometime this spring. Roots & Grooves is a 2-disc set featuring Maceo with the WDR Big Band. Disc 1 is a tribute to Ray Charles, disc 2 features select originals from Maceo. How can this not be great?

Jazz Listened to a lot of Ralph Towner, Bill Evans, Tomasz Stanko, and William Parker/Hamid Drake. Rock Bowie, Derek Trucks Band, and Jeff Beck probably top the list. Blues Alligator Records era Johnny Winter.

Four Sticks always gets my attention. I still really like all of "III" as well.

Gidon Kremer- Schubert- Violin Works (DG)

Received the same mailing this week. $25 buys a bit of music!

Just a simple thank you to Jim for maintaining this wonderful board over the years. It's been well over a year since I've donated in any fashion. That said, the check is in the mail (or will be tomorrow morning). Additionally... Is anyone interesting in a mint unopened copy of The Complete Blue Note Sam Rivers Sessions (Mosaic MD3-167)? All you have to do is donate between now and the end of the year, and you will be entered in a random drawing for a chance to receive this wonderful set. No strings attached, it's that easy! Consider it a small token offered up on Jim's behalf in appreciation for all your kind support. P.S. All donations pledged since the inception of this thread, and received by year's end eligible.

Some of my favorites... Brad Shepik Trio- Places You Go Exploding Star Orchestra- We Are All From Somewhere Else Stefano Bollani- Piano Solo Chris Potter Underground- Follow The Red Line Mingus- Cornell 1964 Mingus- In Paris, Complete America Sessions Miles- Live At Monterey 1963 Miles- Complete On The Corner Sessions Bill Evans- Complete Live At The VV Recordings, 1961 Henry Grimes Trio- Live At The Kerava Jazz Festival Kenny Wheeler- Gnu High Sly & The Family Stone- The Collection Joe Zawinul- Brown Street Edited to include Brown Street.

Been using this for sometime... Edward Hopper- Railroad Sunset

I bought them both more or less when they came out. Songs for Anyone is quite good, reminds me of Wayne Shorter's Alegria in some ways. Both releases deserve attention IMO.

Here's a link to a Guitar Player review of the Hall and Bruno model guitars. Not sure if the manufacturing process referred to below also applies to the signature model. GP Sadowsky Review P.S. Either way it's a Sadowsky. Quality you can trust IMO.

I believe final assembly including fretwork, nut, and the bridge is done in Brooklyn, but isn't the majority of the build in done in Japan?
