  1. Do you mean the French VSOP series from the early 60s? As you are in Switzerland you might well mean those. Very Special Old Phonography
  2. I think you are just doing this incorrectly. Don't select ALL the tracks, just select ONE. You can't expect to change the song title if you select more than one track. Then you will have the next/previous buttons available, and you can edit as many tracks as you wish without leaving the 'Get Info' screen. I don't believe there has been a modification, it has always worked this way. Thanks for that. I see that when I'm in the Artists tab and then click on an album, the screen "slides down" so I can see the tracks on that album, and then, if I highlight a track and call up its information, I then can see the "Next" button. However, my finding came through this way: do a search for an artist, then choose that artist in the search results. The artist's albums then show. If I highlight a track on an album and then call up its information (Command-I on the Mac), I do NOT see the "Next" button. So the program acts inconsistently. I tried what you said and I agree with you. It does seem inconsistent doesn't it. A workaround seems to be :-- after you have chosen the artist in the search results, select the track as before. Then switch to the Songs view. The same track will be highlighted. Now use Get Info and next/previous are available. It will also work if you switch to Album view. It seems to be a 'feature' of Artist view This must be a problem that only exists on the Windows version of the software, I am able to get the "Next" button regardless of which view I'm using on the Mac version. I am on a Mac as well so I cannot explain it. There seems to be a lot of unexpected behaviour depending on what options you have set. Have you done exactly what mjzee did though? You have to do a search first to show the bug. For example, I couldn't understand why I didn't have a Playlists button at the top. It turned out to be because I had the left hand sidebar displayed. You have to hide the sidebar to get the Playlists button to show.
  3. Once again, I don't see this issue. Perhaps you have some option set differently to me that neither of us can see the relevance of. For me, it works as the old version did, just rips the CD and ejects it.
  4. Of the total of 13 titles on this double LP, 11 definitely have made it to CD One definitely has not plus the second is dubious 1. Honeysuckle Rose (10:00) 2. not sure about Shuffle Boil (5:26)(supposedly from Jan 30, 1964, according to Lord) - the early 2000's CD version of It's Monk's Time contained an "unreleased" take #5 of Shuffle Boil running at 4:52 -> could this actually be the same title (timing out a bit though) Someone needs to listen to both versions (I don't have the LP) & report back As 'Always Know' has been available on CD on a French release, I guess that means that all 13 have been available on CD. I am looking at my copy of the double CD as I write this. EDIT: On a cursory listen, the 'Shuffle Boil' on 'Always Know' sounds different to both versions on 'Monk's Time'

  7. The re-designed search function is really disappointing me. It used to be that you could just enter a word (a name, a title, whatever), and a grouping of everything containing that word would automatically come up as a group that could be sorted, edited, played, etc. Now, results come up as a drop-down menu where you can only select one result. It's now less useful, less convenient... a big step backward. In the drop down menu, the first item is an option to show the list in the main screen. For it to appear they way you are used to, you need to be in 'songs' mode when you do this. So you can do it, but I agree that this is a retrograde step.
  8. I don't think so but the truth is I had no idea what they were playing. I don't think any of the tunes had been released at the time, or very few of them at least. This is the set list for the 2nd show according to plosin but I don't know whether I was at the 1st or 2nd. http://www.plosin.com/milesahead/Sessions.aspx?s=691101
  9. This is the outfit Miles was wearing when I saw him in London on the '69 tour. Not easy to forget.
  10. On my copy of Misterioso, Honeysuckle Rose lasts 4.41
  11. Don't think it was. Interestingly it was recorded at a nonet session that went mostly unreleased.
  12. What I meant by a bug is that when I looked at it, on the front page it still said there were sellers at $1, but when you looked at the sellers, they were all over $23.
  13. :-) I was translating peche as fish!! No wonder I couldn't figure out what song it was.
  14. Plus an Elvis and a Dylan and a Billie Holiday. The Billie Holiday, which is otherwise a good looking selection of Columbia material, has a track called "C'est Un Peche de Dire Un Mentire". What on earth is that?
  15. Looks like a bug on Amazon's part. When you actually look at the sellers, no one is offering it for 1$.
  16. Stan`s Shuffle Watch What Happens Intermission Walk Wave Ain`t No Way First four available on Easy Walker and fifth on Common Touch
  17. My entire CD collection, just over 2TB (recently had to upgrade to 3TB drives because I wanted it all on 1 drive) 99% Apple Lossless. Haven't been prepared to even contemplate digitising my LPs.
  18. But it isn't the same is it? The old one had 95 tracks on 4 CDs, this new one has 75 tracks on 3CDs. Still a great bargain though Despite the really cheap price, this music has always been so important to me that I would always recommend the Mosaic.
  19. Mr Wilder left the Hoffman board years ago and all his posts have been deleted, I believe at his own request. Just noticed this fairly recent post from Mark Wilder Kind Of Blue speed issue
  20. I have bought the six I didn't already have on CD - Mr Natural, The Creeper, Landslide, In Memory Of, Midnight Sun and Chant They sound excellent to me, I am very happy with them. I don't have anything to compare them to though.
  21. Available again J.U.N.K. However, given that this is on Hallmark, it probably does sound like junk.
  22. For anyone toying with the idea of buying this ... I have the FiveFour release of Chappaqua now. The sound is fine, the notes state that it was licensed from Sony. Clocks in at 79.57, so a tight squeeze. It's good to hear it again, I haven't played LPs for many years.
  23. FiveFour are part of Cherry Red records. Here are other albums they have released FiveFour Cherry Red also recently produced this Charles Lloyd reissue that didn't get talked about here as far as I know Charles Lloyd
  24. Available again next week ... UK Amazon
