Exactly! WTF for now again

I must admit you do have a point about valuing what you have more. I get more jazz now than for a while and there is a cue. Mind you having an mp3 player to transport and listen makes a fair dent in the queue. However no matter which you keep or not it is still my old favourite blue note recordings that make me sit back and pat my feet and smile when my favourite solos or licks are played.....always have done always will In reality the offering/looking for section should give people the chance to let others know they have or need something without explicitly asking for cdrs. What people then do privately is up to them. There is though something also nice about the ones that still elude you Mine for instance well that would be hypocritical here after what I wrote!

Yeh I had that on the other day when cleaning around the house. That and that certain feeling....he really does is for me as an orgainst along with Larry Young Which reminds I have a long not heard copy of Soul Connection to go and search out...

Erm girls don't have all of them , is that why they get grumpy?

Well.........okay, but can we find something else to freak out about while we wait? ← Well in that case can we discuss how somebody can locate a nice recording of Inner Glow by Bobby Hutcherson for me

I have a 30 gb Creative Jukebox which I have to say has been the most pleasant gadget I have ever bought. Where else but in the shed , on the toilet, in the car, on my bike, on the train,on ...well you get the picture can I listen to a choice of 300+ lps...its great. The reduction in quality depends on the sampling rate in my opinion but its really really great! Best thing, since the last best thing!

I remember seeing alot as a teenager before I had a vcr. I really would like to see more come out if sources can be found especially the live tv shows instead of rehashed tv biogs with all the usual stereotypes/rehashed stories. One that springs to mind was a programme I saw about Art Blakey years ago at around 87-88 in the uk ....it was really interesting and featured him doing some african stuff if my memory serves me right. (which it frequently does not) I picked up a nice one from a friend which many of you will have which featured charles mingus in black and white ( i think dolphy was on it) ...got it on a cd rom as a pressie...not sure if it is from a dvd or not Andy

Worth it just to listen to Midnight Sun all over again in my view. I had most of the cds but flogged them for the box set as it was a real treat Do not hesitate BUY BUY er bye!

I feel flushed

Yeah, but the colour is all wrong! ← ← I think we may have a arguement with the knitters on this http://www.personalthreads.com/newsite/detail.cfm?ID=12235 Item Name: Kureyon 148 Brown Fuschia Rust

I believe it has to be A night in Tunisia by Art Blakey etc on Blue Note This does it for me ...every time....sometimes so much ...I stick it back on again and guess the ending! The other one was a duo Art did with Paul Chambers...it was on a compilation years ago and then they stuck it on a lost session I ve'got my love to keep me warm with Art Blakey and Paul Chambers......sublime and after you have heard all of them Plaza de Toros by Larry Young or Jimmy Smith...title track from Open House again on Blue Note Last ...I promise Keith Jarrett Koln Concert on ECM bye

From: Melbourne via Wellington, Gisborne, London, Dunedin, Jupiter, New Orleans Give it a year and a half. ← I must admit I never bother with air mail from Mosaic to the UK...I order it and get it surface and it is there within a fortnight. The one time I had a pressie and had that sent air mail...yes you guessed it...It took a a fortnight so I now do not bother and I am sure the fish never get to see it! Always arrives in perfect nick too Andy

I had the same scenario although I was missing one if I remember ..( cannot remember now....may have been Up an down) but the box set was really nice and worth getting. I got it at the start as I knew there would be a time when it was either oop or at a time when I was less 'flush' with cash Sold the rest via ebay and it paid for the set and another nearly. However if it just the booklet you seek then I am sure someone will scan in the booklet for you to read Andy

← Now that does annoy me One of the boens with the seclts for me was the shipping was a bit steep for the box sets as they are less to post that the old sets Not impressed with that Did not mind the price for big sets but for these...bit naughty really

Thats why that Lost Sessions cd was soooooooo nice when it came out. A various artists single cd of other rare tracks would be lovely if not to whet the appetite for future releases.....yes I know it aint cheap ......eh I know too that they would not sell many but hey...it was worth mentioning. They could pilot a download service with that kind of thing...just imagine..Grant Green cd with a download possibility on unreleased stuff...no risk, little cost etc Then they could judge what was gonna sell or not and take it forward. It ain't going to be too often we get the Andrew Hill type of luxury so this must be a way forward. Pleeease

I guess I have been lucky that over time I have been able to fill in the gaps from the first issued that I really wanted usually with help from people on this board. Now I do not bother trying to get them on ebay but make sure I get them first time around ( even the selects - if I do not have them on cd) I know that if I do not then in 3 years time I will be scrapping around on ebay for em. Mind you there has not been a proper mosaic big box that I have wanted since the Stanley Turrentine...they all seem to come out now as selects which I guess is okay However I have tended to concentrate only on those mosaics that have been blue note related save the vee jays which were stunners! I think you will have to try to get a matey to get a copy for you til the prices come down on ebay By the way with reference to the first thread re the curtis fuller...it is an awesome set! Andy

Yeh I have all of these and they are all very good. The Prestige ones I have commented on elsewhere and are worth a listen although Soul People is a little different from the rest. The imports are pricy but when I bought them I had never had the lps as they were real hard to find then so it was worth it for me at the time as Ihad a littel extra jazz cd cash from selling lps. If you can find cheaper copies then try Or see if you can score a few burns til they get cheaper

This is now one of the last few I would love to hear on Blue Note ( I am down to counting on fingers all those left.......this and one or two Jack Mcduff and jimmy mcgriffs as well as the three sounds vibrations and jeremy steig s wayfaring stranger and the kenny burrell freedom lp SO there is my challenge.......any body else got wind of this coming or even any of the others as the last few are so annoying

All the more reason to listen!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Here is the lesson to read the post properly ....I got all excited thinking i could get a nice booklet and got on the phoen and then as the phone was ringing read the 'except' word Doh!

pm'ed you re that

I am really in awe of the art work...first bit of decent art work for new stuff ( albeit repackaged) for a while

heard one the other day .....sound quality was ok ish but the concept ...yeh bring it on man ...bout time too especially if you can pick your normal radio and download. I cannot wait til you can download just the bits of bbc etc that you want Bring it on!

I am with the pro mob on this one . I have had this since it came out as I was captivated by his Blue Note work. I have gone back and forth to this set and now have it on my mp3 as a nice one to have on random Yes it is different than his BN material ..more progressive. It was so good I was playing nothing else for weeks at the time. It is a little more used looking now. I treat it as a set as valuable to me as the Mosaics. The notes were also very good with it too. I bought the Sonny Rollins set at the same time as I got a great deal but I was never so fussed with that - dunno why just never was -_- Anyway take your time with this set and enjoy! This is how box sets should be ( other than of course Mosaic!) Fav tracks are the live ones at the moment Andy

Yeh you used to be able to buy them in the former Soviet states ( still can actually) as they never sold any jazz cds much ( no one used to trade there) Used to be very cheap too.......used to get about 7-9 lps with front artwork and that used to stay on the pc only These countries have very different laws regarding copyright and are gradually chaging as they come into the EU or the legal beagles get to them but it is I suspect too late.
