Tröegs Pale Ale

gohastings.com has both the new and the new version of the original set for 7.99 each. Free shipping with code "earlybird".

I actually ordered it a few weeks ago from importcds and paid about 24...

Less than 25¢ per symphony isn't bad.

The Sony Perahia collection is now only $69 at Amazon. Great deal for 68 CDs plus 5 DVDs. I bought it in the Spring and am about 1/3 of the way through. Good set. http://www.amazon.com/Murray-Perahia-The-First-Years/dp/B008NBEY3C/ref=pd_sim_m_14

Placed a last-minute order - the Jimmy Lyons set plus a couple from Dennis Gonzalez.

go for the Odyssey set Ah yes, but is it available anywhere?

I've felt the same way about the Bill DIxon set. It makes me want to seek out more of his recordings.

Neither could I. Below the second map is a bar that says "Showing all performers who played a session between 1943 and 1967". There is a circle at each end. Pull the circles in to set the beginning and end dates. Those performers who played within that date will be shown below the graph, with others grayed out.

And then there's the other issue: "remember not to buy discs you already own". I especially hate when they change the title of the release. I've also been bitten when they use a new cover image.

Here are some of mine: Steely Dan - Pretzel Logic (w/ Duke's "East St. Louis Toodle-Oo") The Band - Rock of Ages Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks & Desire Allman Brothers Band - Live at the Fillmore East Rolling Stones - Let it Bleed Fairport Convention - Liege & Lief Steeleye Span - Please to See the King Tangerine Dream - Phaedra Soft Machine - Third Soft Machine - Triple Echo

Does any source currently have good prices on these? I missed the low prices on amazon.fr.

Haven't heard too much by her, but "Lazy Old Sun: Live/Life in the Low Lands" from 2004 is excellent.

The revised edition of the Cuscuna/Ruppli Blue Note discography don't mention these alternates either.

What do people think of this series?

I think Volume 2 will be a box of the bootleg series discs.

Nice photos there.
