Thanks. Then is there a bootleg from '65 recorded after the Plugged Nickel recordings?

I thought I read a thread on this site about a '65 Miles bootleg called "Cote Blues" but now I can't find it nor can I find a reference to it on Peter Losin's Miles site. Can somone tell me about it or was I just having another acid flashback?

Arggghhh.... I thought the Mulligans were being shipped this week. Well at least I should get the Basie and Davis boxes from CDUniverse next week. This is the most record buying I've done for months. Anything else important coming out before Xmas? I almost hope not.

I had Direct TV for about 5 years and quite liked it. I also had cable to get local stations. The last time I moved the guy Direct Tv sent to install the dish failed to turn up twice!! Meanwhile the cable guys came and offered me digital. (These guys seemed to know what they were doing for a change-- usually you get the 3 stooges). So I've now had the complete cable package for about a year. The image seems about the same, it's cheaper and you can get it for every tv set. (I hate to admit that we have about 5 in our house.) However they've yet to offer hi-def channels. I've got DSL so don't use the cable modem they offer quite cheaply. And -- believe it or not-- I've always found them helpful when I've had to phone them with problems. (Yes there are problems sometimes.) Does Direct tv still use those stupid cards to prevent piracy?

The author used to work in a bookstore (Dutton's) in North Hollywood. I was buying a book about jazz there once and she said "There's a picture of my father in that book." When I asked "who" and she replied "Joe Albany", I of course said "You mean The Legendary Joe Albany". BTW LA Times review by Caroline See is very weird. it refers to a Bird/Aalbany record that doesn't exist. When someone wrote a letter to the editor pointing this out See just reiterated her claim.

The original "Stella" on Jazztrack was a combination of takes 3 & 7 and that's what's in the box set. Miles '58 has take 7 complete. I think Miles '58 is now out of print but I still see unopened copies in stores as well as lots of used ones. (Eric, if you can't find it anywhere I'll send you one.) Like the Teo Macero version of "Miles Ahead" I guess this is going to become a rarity.
