But this has a whole cd of Basie-Prez that was not issued as a download.

Just got an e-mail saying that it won't ship till mid-May. Gave sone reasons re: "approvals" that I really didn't understand. By then I should be able to have listened to the Teddy Wilson set for the 3 or four times which I think it deserves.

Wow, thank you.

Is it still up? Anyway to access it?

Any idea how many Lps and cds you're moving?

I haven't been able to figure out how they came up with 2047 for recorded works. My (perhaps incorrect) understanding is that films made in 1923 became pd this year and on January 1, 2019 films made in 1924 go pd but no sound recording that isn't already pd will become so until 2047 at which point I presume everything recorded before 1952 is free game. . (I doubt that many "authors" involved will not have been dead for less that 75 years.) Anyone here know anything about this?

I can't believe no one here's talking about Ohtani after Sunday's game.

Mosaic's Sunday Jazz Gazette this week still said it's coming out in April.

My problem is I received it twice. They told me my credit card was no good so I opened a new account with a different e-mail. Then I received the set from both accounts. And they charged both accounts.

Through my stupidity I now have two copies of this. I'll send an un-open one to anyone who donates $25 to the board. (Which I see hasn't received any donations for a while.) You can pm me.

Thanks a lot for this.

The sound on the gold disc is lovely but the "Complete"version I have sounds good too. (My equipment is not the best, nor are my ears.) The cheaper Complete ($8.99) listed on Amazon has three cuts not on the Gold disc: "Cop Out", an alternate "Autumn Leaves" and an alternate "All the Things You Are". Both versions of Autumn Leaves are longer than the one on the Gold disc. (I don't know what to make of that.) I can't tell what's on the slightly more expensive version ($11.87) offered on Amazon. I've loved this record since it first came out on Lp so I'm not objective. I'd buy both. The import version of Piano in the Foreground is the American version plus some cuts from the Capital piano trio sessions in the early '50s. it is cheaper than the American version.

So the '97 release was the cd with the original cover and the alternate take of Flamenco Sketches? And it was the first one after the Gold one to have the correct speed? And how does the Gold one (which is one of the ones I have) compare to the MoFi? I have the gold disc, the SACD (which is multi Channel and stereo), the Legacy edition, a "DualDisc" which has the stereo edition on one side and a DVD as well as a multi Channel 5.1 version on the other. And of course I have it all again in the Miles/Trane box set. I use to have the Lp and the first cd issue. Am I crazy? (I also own three cd versions of "Ellington Indigoes". )

I'm really confused. (As I often am.) Is the '97 release the Legacy release? And I never thought of the alternative take of Flamenco Sketches as opening with Peace Piece but as referencing Some Other Time (which morphed into Peace Piece on Riverside). IIRC Evans even quotes Some Other Time in his solo on the alternate take of Flamenco Sketches.

Do SACDs play on DVD players? What about Blu Ray players?

Should be easy to distinguish Manchester from London: Listen for someone calling out "Judas!" just before they play Like a Rolling Stone "fucking loud".

One of the streaming services-- I think it's Pandora-- has a "Bill Evans Channel". Plays a lot of Bill but other piano players as well. I've heard it a couple of times at the houses of different friends none of whom are huge jazz fans.

Yup. Cost me $26.55 including shipping.

I've always presumed that Fresh Air was taped. One of my favorite moments on the show was when Gross asked Kieth Jarrett about charges that his music betrayed his African American Heritage and he (to my surprise) answered that he was Caucasian. I admire her for leaving in the exchange. BTW He pointed out that people might have thought he was Black because of his hair.

Only time I saw Santana perform he was wearing a Coltrane T-shirt.

Wasn't Mosaic partially owned by Capital? Does Universal Music now own a piece of it? And who owns Universal Music? I downloaded the Dexter then bought a booklet from Mosaic.

I think they were called The Capital Vault Series and were all owned by Capital/Emi. Wow I just looked them up. There are 16 of them and they include some larger boxes. Prices are all over the place. $11.99 for the Dexter Select, $89.99 for the Bobby Hackett.

EMI/Capital put out several Mosaic Selects on iTunes without identifying them as such. (IIRC they also gave each collection a title different than the one Mosaic used.)

IIRC Mingus Ah Um has the earliest recordings of Better Git Hit in Your Soul, Goodbye Pork Pie Hat and Fables of Faubus, three compositions he continued to play for the rest of his life. (And there's also Boogie Stop Shuffle.)

I've read that the whistling after Trane's solos was a sign of disapproval. Anyone here know if that's true? BTW I think that Wynton Kelly really steps it up in response to Trane.
