Just got a shipping notification for Louis Armstrong and All Stars (257) ordered during the week-end. It also said that:
We had a very strong response to our offerings over the last few days and want to thank you for your support!

Mary Lou Williams At Rick's Cafe Americain

Got this last week. Really well done release packed with great music and two booklets with plenty of photographs. Strongly recommended to anyone into Jacques.
There is also a Thollot LP out now on Alga Marghen, "Intra Musique", from 1969.

Last night in church of Saint Merri, Paris:
Jon Gibson's Visitations

It looks like it will come in the fall:

There is a sale from UK's Hyperion records on some releases starting at 2.50 pounds: http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/o.asp?o=1054
(and other ones in 'current offers')
I was thinking of getting a couple. Do you have any favorites that I should also order?

The Complete 1932-1940 Brunswick, Columbia and Master Recordings of Duke Ellington and His Famous Orchestra
Disc 1The set for me where to hear the "Ellington sound", fantastic.

Great loss. What a way of going through life with such energy. Re-watched Elevator to the Gallows on French TV last night, still gripping.

I like the spirit of who and what they cover and how they do it, the range is big, and they can easily change the list every night on a long tour, from "Friday I'm in love" to Black Flag and many rarities.

You're in for a treat!
To read my impressions of various singers' recordings of Ives' songs, go to: http://www.musicweb-international.com/Ives/RR_Songs.htm
Thank you for this! Just started to listen to the songs and as you said, it is extremely enjoyable.

From this box:

Everybody is so great here! Jaki Byard is such a diverse player. Tony Williams... The fisheye cover. The song titles...
-
Just been offered this set as a birthday present, obviously from someone special!
It will be here soon, coming from JM in Barcelona. Can't wait!

I only stream during holidays and/or for exploring new music, but always go back to a physical format when I enjoy the music. I don't have a DAC for streaming so sonic difference is huge because of that.

My car has a cassette player in addition to the 6-disc built-in changer.
Soooo many cassettes here - some of which need to be transferred
because the stuff is probably only on someone's reels at a radio station.I even have this on cassette:

Sharing the love for Jaki Byard expressed here.
My 'opening' for the evening is:
1970, at the Centre culturel américain in Paris

I hadn't heard of Ives' songs and have loved everything I have heard from this composer so this will be great to explore.
-
Thanks for the music clips and for reminding me that I have to get this set. James P Johnson is being processed so this will be the next one.
I didn't realize there was so much diversity on this set, all behind such a legendary label.

From the Charles Munch box. Compelling music.

Very admirative this morning while listening to:

Charlesp and Larry Kart have spoken well about what they represent for many of us.
My reaction was mainly because I believe they deserved more respect. Why so much agressivity towards them and for what seems to me as so little (you could have waited much longer for some of their music had they not been there)? They might not be the most efficient business model, but do we have enough information to judge this? And in the end what counts more to me is the relationship to the music, the way they produce and edit it. Sameways, when I place an order from Emanem, Incus or Futura (to mention even smaller businesses), this doesn't feel like a capitalistic relationship but a direct link between people who put out great music they love and listeners.
-
I also don't understand these critical attitudes and all the "market logic" and "customer" talk. They are people in a small to very small business and everybody agrees on the importance of what they have put out. I believe one should recognize that and let them the time to think things over adjust and adapt in the best way for them and the rest of us.

Maybe the recent 2CD comp on Frémeaux has some of those tracks on disc 2:
