Lon, After you've had some time to listen to the set, I'd be VERY interested in hearing your impressions of the audio quality -- relative to previous releases. Since I've already got all of this music (aside from a few alt takes), the potential AQ improvement is going to be a big determining factor whether I spring for this set. NP:

Brilliant.

Disc 3 - originally released as Green Shading into Blue

Appreciate the perspective, sir. Danke!

Thanks, Mike.

What are your thoughts re: Demus' Schumann, @soulpope?

Dvořák: Symphonic Poems / Kubelik, Bavarian RSO Desert-island stuff. Superlative LvB !!!

I'm 56 years old. Among my work colleagues, I'm one of the old guys. But around here, not so much. More time for me to build up my music collection to absurdly large proportions.

Disc 12 - Tchaikovsky: Romeo and Juliet – Fantasy Overture After Shakespeare - Mussorgsky: Boris Godunov Symphonic Synthesis Wonderful stuff, I bet!

I don't disagree. Seems sorta silly NOT to include bonus tracks if they're available and there's room on the CD.

Tremendous.

Wow. That was cool. I had no idea that there was an instrument like this.

The idea of "The Originals" series was that the CD would be an exact duplicate of the original album. I've always assumed that's why they didn't include "I Remember Clifford" on that particular reissue.

Yessir. Both Marshall & Cables played with Hutcherson frequently, so the group sounds like a working unit.
