I'm not easily broken. I could probably hear that a number of times and not shift my opinion. I'm resolute.

Well to be honest, the Venuses don't seem that great sounding to ME. Part of the snooziness is the rather placid sound. And the Smith Roosts probably won't sound thin; the Addey remastered Mosaic sounds EXCELENT, and I imagine the cd will be from these remasterings. But that's just me, to each their own and then some (no wait, it's Democrats that believe in individualism,* I keep forgetting!) B-) *According to Dean on Meet the Press yesterday.

Yes, that would be the miles-tree.org Lost Quintet compilation. Some amazing stuff in that batch!

No, but there are plenty of Venuses I find snoozey. I don't pursue them any longer; not worth the money to me outside of the Wilens and Shepps I have already.

If you like those snoozy Venuses you should like those Smiths. -_-

My Cannonball collection is embarrassingly small (only 6 or 7 cds with him as a leader, I think) so I have some serious work ahead of me over the next few years. Guy ← Well, it shouldn't be "serious work." Cannon's music always had an element of fun and excitement within and it will turn out to be FUN to get caught up!

Mr. Tanno spelled "Alberghetti" incorrectly. Got the "warm and willing" part right!

She was not an attractive woman. . . She has an interesting delivery and style. . . for a few minutes at least. You're not missing anything in my opinion.

Sidewinder, you're really going to enjoy those two titles. The Water version of the Pearson pust the Mosaic Select to shame. Time for me to order the Roach. -_-

In my opinion all the Cannball Riverside/Landmarks are great. This one. . .well it's a different feel than Jazz Workshop Revisited, but great playing from all concerned.

This morning I listened to Beethoven's Third (Bernstein, Vienna Philharmonic, DG), and "The Gellers" downloaded from Verve Vault, and downloaded three lps from http://www.sabadabada.com, Elis' "Como & Porque," and Monk's "Brilliant Corners." Shortly, it will be Marvin's "What's Goin' On". . . .

Van Cliburn: Tchaikovsky, Piano Concerto No. 1 (SACD Hybrid)

I agree with Chris, this is a mixed bag, and when it's good. . . it's great! I just listen to bits and pieces any more. This has been on US cd TWICE before this new one. The second time (in the Avenue Jazz series of Bethlehems) this had a few extra pieces I think.

This and four other Living Stereo hybrid SACDs are available at yourmusic.com!

Me too; I'd love to have been able to hear each of these bands he led from this time forward a few times each!

Thanks for posting those!

Brownie, I'm glad I didn't steer you wrong! I could no longer do a comparison, as I gave the JVC to my father in Ohio, but. . . I was pretty sure I would have kept the BEST sounding version.

I'd love to read all those. Those pieces that I have read from this magazine are wonderful fun! But I've bought myself way too many expensive presents lately!

-_- One day when I can just pull the trigger I'm gonna get this.

Many more happy ones indeed!

Be patient. . . . I spend months sometimes waiting to sell items and they sell over time. I'd certainly buy this if I hadn't bought it on the day of its release! A fantastic document!

I thought that was pretty funny Never! Yes, as I have all the MBB cds, most of the others, I'll be getting this one~!

Do we really need "Coke with Lime?" Looking around at all the office workers who are swilling cokes. . . I think what we need is "Coke with FIBER"!

I've seen it twice as well. Rosario was twice as beautiful the second time around! And I remain impressed by the filmmaking represented here. . . . This is going to be a dvd to buy.

http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?...&cart=248502253 Looks as if it will contain "Round Midnight" from the Newport 1955 appearance, and the 1956 appearance in Pasadena by the Quintet!
