This is the first I’ve heard that Omnivore re-issued the Hollywood All Star Sessions since the right to these were owned by Fantasy, which is now owned by Concord. Did you intend to refer to the Artist House Recordings, which Omnivore issued a couple of years ago. If not, do you have a link.

He struck me as more a manager than a brilliant tactician. Moreover, he wasn’t a great President and on top of that his failure to do anything to stop McCarthy, especially when McCarthy took on George C. Marshall was shameless.

Whatever. A new person for the ignore list.

Not at all but not worth further discussion.

People could easily see what you had originally said. Quoting part of a person’s quote is a common practice. I’ve seen it here, Hoffman and bunch of other places but if you felt it was taken out of context to create an erroneous impression, my apologies.

Full quote was already above.

That’s where I’m at on this.

Mariano is sold.

Just added several more.

Mariano is on hold. I will be listing more tomorrow.

Same here.

I have a few of them and have had no sonic issues but $40 or so is more than I want to spend if I have the cd equivalent As others have mentioned it’s a personal choice. Other companies have theirs priced around the same so it’s the industry standard. Rhino is issuing an audiophile of Coltrane’s Sound at the same price.

King Power, while significant, was never the size of the “Kings of Araby” that own Man City. I only hope the Premier League make the charges stick.

It’s incredible to think that Leicester was only champion a few short years ago. That championship was once in a lifetime thing. With the money presently awash in football, a small team winning a title is inconceivable.

White House Plumbers. Another show that will be unfortunately ending next week.

Well, we did.

Everyone is free to post an opinion but making the same point over and over serves no purpose. Once you make your point there is no need to constantly repeat it.

That gets to the heart of this thread. You don’t like what Mosaic is issuing so you’re going to complain. That’s in a nutshell. Other companies are out there doing things that probably appeal to you, such as the Dorothy Ashby set (which you noted). A company — any company — can’t be all things to all people. That’s why we buy things from different merchants. To paraphrase a line from Hemingway’s Hills Like White Elephants, would you please please please please please please please stop.

Succession. It will be a shame when it’s over.

Condolences Kevin. As we get older we all have to be careful that we maintain our balance.
