  1. The Bill Evans Fantasy box set includes an interview with Marian McPartland.
  2. Not a box set, but I seem to recall the Charlie Parker in Boston disc on Uptown has a brief interview with Bird.
  3. At least when it comes to baseball, I always thought the Ryan for Fregosi trade ranked as one of the worst of all time.
  4. Very nice, Bill!
  5. I'm not certain if this hasn't been posted here at one time or another? A friend recently sent me this link and I thought I would share this with you. Enjoy. http://www.jazzonthetube.com/videos/sonny-rollins/full-concert.html
  6. Happy Birthday, Dan!
  7. PM on Marty Paich, "I Get A Boot Out Of You".
  8. Wow. Incredible prices on those. I'll bet the shipping charges are high, though. Might double your cost, but it still may be less than other sources... Shipping on Amazon Marketplace is $3.99 per item ordered, so both still come in under $20. While the price for the Shaw set has risen somewhat recently, it's still worth the purchase. I bought this set for the above price recently and it's easily one of my better purchases in quite some time. Take the leap. You'll be glad you did! http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B005QOR1ZM/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
  9. Disc 3 - Stepping Stones, Bonus Tracks
  10. Disc 2 - Stepping Stones, Live At The Village Vanguard
  11. I think I prefer this version!
  12. Got to hear this one. Thanks David!
  13. I'm not certain if folks here know of this upcoming release scheduled for October 15? http://www.amazon.com/Fritz-Reiner-The-Complete-RCA-Recordings/dp/B00BT70J0Y/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377816626&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=Fritz+Reiner%3A+Complete+RCA+Collection+%5BBox+set%5D A thread on a classical forum I sometimes visit: http://www.classicalmusicguide.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=42688
  14. Count me in on this one!
  15. Happy Birthday, kh!
  16. Welcome guys! I hope your board comes back soon? In the meantime, make yourself at home and get involved in the many great discussions.
  17. Hey Dan. The one you mention indeed has the Fontana label on the cover of the album. However, in the description of the album on Amazon's website it states Emarcy. No matter, I'm sure were talking about the same animal. I was reading one of the reviews of the Verve release and one of the reviewers cited the audio mix was far from ideal. That was not my impression when I heard this played earlier. I thought perhaps one release was superior to the other in terms of sound? But what the hell do I know?
  18. I just had the opportunity to hear 2 tracks off this release a short time ago during WKCR's birthday celebration of the music of Wayne Shorter. Both tracks featured Barney Wilen and Bud Powell sitting in with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. Sounded great! The question I have is that I see 2 identical releases of this album. One on the Verve label, the other on Emarcy. Is one preferable to the other? Your thoughts are appreciated.
  19. Let me also add since I'm presently listening to the broadcast, there will be similar celebrations in the coming days to Lester Young and Charlie Parker. Good listening for those interested.
  20. Happy Birthday, Dave!
