Yeah, baby--let's talk about some tasty WAX!!!

Well, DAMMMMMN! Add my vote to "From Hackensack"...and KEEP THAT COVER!

Not to hijack the thread, but does anyone have a list of the issues from this series?

Tomcat (Lee Morgan) and Soothsayer (Wayne Shorter) remasetered to sonic beauty!!!

Email sent!

AMEN, Jim. Those changes come at me out of left field, crunchy where they need to be but smooth and subtle all the same. I don't know how he does it. I will be picking this up as soon as it's available. Should have added it to my Conn pre-order!!!

Mmmmm-mmmmm! Got this in the mail last night, tore into it this morning and listened on the way to work. Thanks for making the commute fun! I'm looking forward to digging into this a bit, and have some suspicions about the track listing....

Me too!

Dave Brubeck's "Time-" records, all nicely remastered and (supposedly) available in a box set with some extra tracks!!! Was going to be out this autumn, but Alan Lankin says "2004"!

I too am looking forward to seeing this, and for a similar reason as you, Lon. The "thing" you're talking about wrt tarantino films is pretty intangible, but it's there and makes his movies worthwhile to me. I'll probably see it on Sunday, and I'm hoping folks will post their impressions!

I'm not usually a conspiracy theorist, and this doesn't even smack of that sort of "conspiracy," but it was one of my first thoughts as well, Randy.

That blows. I was considering restarting my membership (due to the improved sound/bitrates); not any more! Thanks, emusic, for making my decision THAT much easier.

Wow Rooster, I've never thought of Andrew Hill as a good "quiet storm" selection, if you know what I'm sayin'!

Similar, but related, question: How do you guys go about getting price tag residue off of a) record album covers, FRONT (i.e., older BN's with "Laminated" covers); B) record album covers, BACK (just paper or cardboard); or c) record LABELS (when the IDIOTS put the price tag on the record itself!!!) Thanks!

Passing Ships!

They finally arrived! Thanks, CD Universe!

Mmmmmmmm, I like... (arrived about three minutes ago in my mail!) Nice, lush sounds; fascinating tonality and chord structures. A couple of ponderous moments on the first track thus far, but I'm only listening on my office computer. This is definitely a keeper. And has anyone noticed that it's mastered by Malcolm Addey? Yippee! (Wish Addey had remastered "Thinking of Home." )

Yippee! Can't WAIT for this show! Lou Donaldson with the Turbanator, Randy Johnston on guitar and Fukushi Tainaka on drums. November 25-30. Anyone planning on going?

ditto couw's comment, Jim!

Because I haven't gotten them yet.

Looks like I have to wait another day for the slow train from Connecticut to Philadelphia to bring my my music. Oh well, I scored a mint vinyl copy of Grant Green Live at the Lighthouse in Seattle, so I'll just have to soothe my ears with it until (hopefully!) tomorrow...

Ohhhh, my serious bad... Vacation has made me soft and I thought today was tomorrow!!! I have to go back to the drawing board, banishing thoughts of Rooster sitting there listening to this stuff while many of us wait for the mail... And to think...I wrongly impugned CDUniverse, who, according to an email I just got, shipped my CD's TODAY!!! Ugh...I gots to check the calendar before I speak! -_-

Oh, COME ON now. Hasn't anyone heard these yet? Let's hear about them! CD Universe is dragging their heels getting these out for the first time.

Tom. I agree with you re fuchschia swing & contours. And another thought. Sixth sense A-FUCKIN'gain? WTF??? There's SO much else to release......

Come on, Jim! Don't fuck with GINO!!!! I'm on the first goddamn flight to Covino, and don't y'all try to stop me!
