Exactly!

The OTC box is my favorite of the ones that I own.
-
I must've glossed over the LITA box if it was noted in this thread. Interesting.
-
I never picked up the Resonance set because a) Zev turns me off and b) I have the Douglas/FM LPs and Other Aspects, but reading this thread, I probably should.

Lacy, Rutherford, Stevens, Parker, Bailey. I think those artists were perfectly documented by Martin's efforts, though certainly there were a lot of others who benefited from his keen ear and dedication.
I was glad to have a few nice communications with him over the years, and he participated in the WPI Jazz Institute zoom roundtables occasionally as well.
As for the stock/catalogue, my assumption is that his surviving partner is sorting through grief and logistics as best she can. As I recall she is older and this is probably quite challenging for her. I have no intel, but can only assume this is the case. There are a few Emanem CDs I never picked up and would like to. Hopefully they find a way over here eventually (de minimis cancellations be damned!).

Wow, there's more tension in this thread than on the Plugged Nickel set itself 😂
Seriously, though, it is very odd that the music has not been re-released on CD or LP since the boxed set/doorstop as far as I can tell. I have fond memories of first hearing some of it at my aunt's house (she used to post here), when I was first getting interested in jazz. The band was on fire and their collective search is riveting. I bought the set used, eventually, for a price that was not too insurmountable.
Miles' 100th is next year, and maybe we can expect some of these boxes to come back into circulation.

Thanks guys. Judson Hall was a live venue wasn't it? Ive got Noah Howards concert there. Checking my collection data now I see indeed some Frank Wright records were recorded at RLA studios. As was Carmell Jones' Jay Hawk Talkin but thats no ESP recording by any means of course.

That’s excellent news. I only have a rip from an older CD reissue.
-
yeah, that is believable. The materials should be tariff-free, of course, but without actual direction from the "top," it's anyone's guess what would be applied and how...

When you place an order the fees are clearly shown in the final pre-payment page. Seems about 25 percent of the item cost on the order I placed. You can choose to order or cancel on that page.
Isn't 25% greater than the current tariff on non raw-material goods from Japan to the US, anyway?
-
oh, it's definitely too many, but probably a fraction of what someone such as Mr. Nessa had at peak volume!

Very nice. I don't really have vinyl on the walls but I do have walls of vinyl.
When I lived in an apartment in NYC, I had floor-to-ceiling walls of records, bolted to the load-bearing axes so as not to cause structural damage. Now that I am in a free-standing house, I had to be a bit more strategic about where the weight is placed, so the custom modular units are a bit more spread out. Given the amount of records, I was told by a structural engineer not to have them all in one room or there'd be hell to pay. 😂

I never really spent time with later Pentangle, but have and adore all the Transatlantic/Reprise albums.
-
yes, I've heard the UK to US line seems to be open as of late.
-
Yes indeed. Love this one, too:
-
I'm wondering if shipping via FedEx, DHL, UPS might improve the odds of getting what one ordered.
For what it is worth, the customs harmonization code for LPs/45s is 85238090 / 85238010
The harmonization code for CDs is 85234920
going forward, these numbers might be useful to provide sellers when shipping stuff to the US.

Oh no! RIP. A master.

I actually asked a French friend these questions a year ago and he acted like I had gone insane and claimed that there was no such name, which I felt was harsh.
Haha! He is very much a real person.

I sold a Polo Ralph Lauren shirt on Ebay. I knew the cross border shipping would be an issue so I marked the item as a gift with a value of $10. The U.S. buyer was still hit with a $50 custom charge.
Insane.
That seems like way more than what it should be.

I’ve seen Ingrid many times. She’s a force to be reckoned with!

Good call on the Rivers sessionography; I don’t have the physical book though the online version is easy enough to check into.

Putting this here for anyone who is interested… via the JazzBoston Hot Club which Bill Goldberg directs.

yes, agreed. Without those bigger names selling at a decent pace, we wouldn't have had three CDs worth of People Band, Inaudible Collectif, George Khan archival material, Charlotte Hug, Sylvia Hallett, a particularly hairy solo Fred Lonberg-Holm CD, or any number of other things.
