😁 👍 Intresting for me as Konitz fan! to save space you could adjust the size of the characters in the text. Thanks

Glad I could help. Have the complete collection of Florence. Beside Shorty Rogers BB my favorite bb leader

Thanks for your detailed rating of those reissue companies. I do agree that the original coverart and the liners are missing. But I dont think to rate 'Membran / The Intense Media' as 'junk'. Have many Fresh sounds too (also from their beginning viny era with replica coverart). I dont hear so much difference compared Fresh Sound with Membran. So for collecting them only for a decent jazzmusic reproduction they seems ok for me. Others my see it different. Living in Europe Fresh Sound is easy to get for me. BTW have also an AVID JATP box. All I can say very good.

Volume 2 is just availabe

Thanks for your rating, Can you exyplain that a bit more. I have the Cal Thader & Horace Silver box. The sound is not bad here. I do no shootouts just to compare because sooner or later your hearing ability will not hear any changes anymore due to aging. and some original Blue notes are ridiculous in price + postage to get them here in Europe.
