  1. I'll do some looking around, but Redtrumpet, Acoustic Sounds and Elusive Disc may have a few. It would be nice to have a list of the titles in the series, but I get confused as they came out at about the same time as the CONN series. BTW just got the Classic Records JR Monterose BN, so I will not be needing my 'Wally' reissue. Shoot me a PM if you want it.
  2. Yep!! Keep them coming guys. I'm way behind on the new stuff and will be buying 5 or 10 LP's soon to get re-started. Nice to see many new releases on vinyl, which is what I will be getting. On my short list: Shins Postal Service Iron and Wine Modest Mouse(do not like their last one)
  3. S&P Records reissue S&P Records reissue Classic Records reissue Classic Records reissue Classic Records reissue
  4. The Complete Johnny Hodges 1951-1955
  5. Looks just like the Classic Records reissue.... 2K with 2 days left.
  6. Too simple and workable and no one gets paid.
  7. The titles I picked up a few years ago did not mention 'Rare Groove'. Didn't they have a sticker on the shrink? I think there may be a few of the 'Wally' BN's around, along with some of the CONN's. They will be priced at around $18.
  8. Welcome to the small but dedicated ranks of the truly enlightened. Vinyl has a beating heart, a warmth, a pulse that CD's IMO do not. As for CDs not requiring the careful handling that vinyl does, that's nonsense. Quality things, whether they are cashmere sweaters, fine china, beautiful art or jazz vinyl, all deserve special care in order to last. Vinyl is surprisingly durable, as evidenced by collections which are decades old and still pristine and beautifully playable, because their owners cared. All the other qualities you mentioned are what draw me to vinyl over CDs, though, of course I have CDs as well. There is no turntable in a car, sadly. Vinyl. I love it!!! I miss Leeway!!!
  9. Good question. With this Blue Note series, I guess it depends on a few factors. These are very, very nice reissues or would not keep buying them. Without going into detail, my only reservation is that the high frequency distortion, apparent on many BN's, is still present in greater and lesser degrees on these. It's especially bad on Lee Morgan/ Vol.3. Out of the last six I've gotten it's the only one I'm not happy with. I've been buying these kinds of reissues for years and I'm glad I have been doing so. They all get lots of play and I feel it's worth it. Get Morgan/Candy and see if it's worth it for you.
  10. I have 3 of the EW titles on vinyl that were done 'direct to disc' back in the day. I consider them good albums, with unbelievable sonics. The LA Four/Pavane... is my favorite.
  11. My 16 year old son and I were driving home a few hours ago. He is really into music. The radio was playing Dylan(Hollis Brown) and my kid said, "This guy is great, they've been playing him all night." I could tell he was in complete awe and really digging him. I was a bit surprised at his response, as he's been listening to me play Dylan for years. I believe Dylan has a new fan.
  12. George Braith: Soul Stream (NY mono) George Braith: Two Souls In One (NY mono)
  13. They are so cute, but oh so deadly!! Four or five trips to the store and 10 boxes of cookies. One actually grabbed me by the sleave and dragged me to the table. Her mother and and I just started laughing. My advice.....use the rear exit.
  14. LMAO!! That's cool!! Learn to to like it. How about the matching outfits? The dolls and your daughter's?
  15. Yikes! First of all, your daughter will outgrow it in 3 or 4 years. Maybe, 3K and one and a half rooms devoted to it. It's your wife that I'm worried about. Another child may be the only answer.
  16. did they balk? Gotta admit, I'd give up an album or two to see the attempt... Couw is now in my Hall Of Fame for turning the tables on Aric. Aric, get freaky with them young bucks, baby!!!
  17. I voted for "Songs...". Played my first copy to death and now play a mint original I picked up a few years ago. Is it true his new album will be released soon? In Japan I believe.
  18. Classic Records re-issues. Mono, all-tube mono tube cutting system, thick vinyl, heavy stock covers with deep groove labels.

    Sundazed

    Irwin/Sundazed interview link. Blonde On Blonde re-issue interview link There is also a Stereophile interview somewhere. I can't think of an independent reissue label, other than Mosaic and Classic Records(vinyl), that I like so much.
  20. I do not know if these count as countries, as I was fishing way off their coasts, but.... Costa Rica and Panama with the French owned rocks off the coast of Mexico a close 3rd.
  21. Lee Morgan: Volume 3 Lee Morgan: Candy Hank Mobley: Roll Call Hank Mobley: Hank Sonny Clark: Sonny's Crib Sonny Clark: Dial 'S' For Sonny Classic Records 200 gram vinyl, mono analog re-issues. All highly recommended for music. All, except Volume 3, recommended for sound.
  22. Pie, specifically, peach cobbler.
  23. Great idea, if it does not rear it's head in other forums.
  24. Classic Records re-issues. Mono, all-tube mono tube cutting system, thick vinyl, heavy stock covers with deep groove labels. A welcome throwback to days gone by.
  25. I'm here, in stealth mode.
