Man, I'm really divided about this next box set. . . . I mean I adore Wake of the Flood and Mars Hotel, but my interest after that really wanes dramatically. I'd like to have the remastered Flood and Mars, AND the bonus disc only sold through the website. . . but not the whole box. Play the waiting game I guess and hope they put out remasters of Wake and Mars soon.

couw! Why not?

I'm with Eric. I mean I know I don't ever want to have a beer with Weizy or Berigan, but enemies? Nah! I think this is a true, or SOMETIMES was or is a true, place of conversation and exchanges of ideas. Sometimes pretty, sometimes not.

Stardust Memories. .. what a movie! I just love the movie WITHIN the movie at the beginning.

Yes Charlotte. . . what a beautiful woman. And what a great voice.

Babwa Stweizand?

Personally I wish the Baby Pictures thread would go. YIKES.

Dang, that blows my number one conspiracy theory right out of the pond!

I personally feel that the Randy Weston Select is the best of the lot and essential (for MY life!)

Of the ones you list, I would think the Elveen is the best single fit. But the Byrd / Adams I know you would love. . . if you don't have any of the individual lps get it!

The Jeri Southern I like a lot is when she accompanies herself on the piano. She's real good at that and the results are special.

Kurt did an okay remastering job on those Elektras that Blue Note reissued (Evans, Getz/Dailey, Bird in D.C.). . . .

Peter, Thanks. I'm pretty sure that is not the same place that was on my streetcorner unless it has been moved (quite likely). . . may be the same place Trane and Tyner met at. . . .!

Doesn't bother me if it's gone. I liked it most when it was young, and less "daring". . . .A lot of the images from the last three months or so I didn't need to see! I don't personally think it will make one iota of difference as far as gender attendance goes here however. Rainy and Rachel and the few other wonderful women we have here are very special!

Actually, David, that group as it was with Horace AND Randy on piano under the horns. . . that would be something to hear!

Man I know what you mean. . .that's why I'm NOT preordering these!

David, What a band that would be!

They look good. . . . ! I have most of the material in both sets. Excellent music!

Good job both Evan and Jim!

Lampi is wild! I bought the Tommy Turrentine SACD hybrid, and the latest RCA Ellington cd/dvd combo. . . all ordered from cduniverse.com

I hear that! If I were more into movies at home and had more time, I'd have to have one!

From what I can tell it's been on DVD from international markets but not yet in the US. . . . Scheduled here for a November release. Sure is one that I'm glad I saw on the big screen! I prefer to watch movies that way, truth be told!

Many Many more happy ones!
