[From the Losin page] VICJ 61031~40 are the 24-bit XRCDs in the booktype packaging. VICJ 61041 ~ 80 are the reprints of the 20-bit XRCDs in mini-LP packaging. VICJ 60701~59 are used up by regular releases from Victor Japan. For instance, Sonny Rollins' This Is What I Do is VICJ 60709. Art Pepper's 9CD Complete Village Vanguard box takes up numbers 60751~9. The Losin site, therefore, is missing Contemporary label reissues I listed above (60760~60800, 60807), 40 Pablos (60841~80, many of which are on sale at Red Trumpet), 30 Concords (60911~40), and 10 Red Garlands (61101~20) that came out in May with the Prelude box (3CDs, VICJ 61098~61100).

Well, Bev, I don't think you realize this is Rooster's vote, not the poll results.

All good recommendations. I'd like to add the flute album, I Talk With the Spirits..

Could the essay "Underappreciated genius of Spandau Ballet shines brightly thanks to SACD" be far behind? In a related story, someone has written 999th installment of the "I bought this CD without knowing much about the music in it just because Steve Hoffman mastered it" series at the Hoffman forum.

Your first Mosaic must have that extra oomph that makes you very proud you have it. Each set has its share of great music but the Tristano/Marsh/Konitz set is the one to get.

The JVC site has the list in Japanese but I haven't seen any English list. So until (or unless) someone brings a complete list, I'll take it as a hobby to type the list here. It'll take a while.

Is self-destruction possible? I thought one couldn't delete a thread he/she started.

I think the Texans here would like to be reminded that the new HC of the Boys sang "Groovin'" in a Tostitos commercial.

It's hard to believe Blue Note wouldn't be aware of this board. They certainly get to hear some of the things being discussed here, don't they?

What assholes!

I think I should get some shticks myself now ... One should consider it an honor to be mocked.

Then we have these words. I managed to enjoy this even though Charlie Christian played electric guitar on it. Wynton sittin' in with the Organissimo? I'm there. Chris Albertson has a lot to contribute to jazz community.

Who would never utter these words? Aric Effron once was my blood brother. I know not to believe Aric Effron in the first place. I would forgive and let it go, even if the shit happened in the money jungle.

Who would never say these things? This SACD doesn't sound so hot. I'm a Democrat who thinks and acts like a Republican. I was wrong for once.

Bummer! I always thought similarly to how you did about "Surrey With The Fringe On Top." Then again, the improvement in drum sound is always a good reason for an upgrade. Thanks for the review.

I fail to see your point on this. I think the point is Disney has made money by taking advantage of characters and stories in public domain and, at the same time, by aggressively protecting the intellectual property "created" thanks in part to the the works in public domain. With this movie, for instance, Disney is making money off Tom Sawyer and Captain Nemo. Good luck to the next fools that attempt to do the same thing. Disney lawyers are waiting for ya.

This is certainly a good news ... although the not-having-met-the-RVG-I-didn't-like part gives me pause. I just listened to one of my favorites, Newk's Time, and was wondering about the JRVG. Is that one of the titles you got?

TOCJ-1605 was issued in 1996 and should be very difficult to find in that format. Music in it, however, is very much available as part of the Clifford Brown Memorial Album (and, in the case of one track, The Eminent J. J. Johnson). I'm not sure which BLP-5044 you're referring to (US Conn. CD with a George Wallington session or Toshiba-EMI reissue EP with 6 tracks) but it's out of print in any case and has enjoyable music.
