Many happy returns Flurin!

Game of Thrones Season 5 on Blu-ray.

That's a lot of stuff to mix, I hope it's safe. I would check with a professional myself before I'd do that. Luckily, I sleep great, night after night. My next youngest brother says it's because I don't drink. Who knows, I know it's a lucky thing. There was a time in my working career where my agency was being reduced in force over the course of three years from 850 employees to 475. That was three years I didn't sleep as well. . . . Luckily that was now more than a decade ago.

I think that's probably true, the two corporations press their own material. I think this happened in the Jacquet set as well.

I remember reading that Bing and Bob Crosby were code for cops because Pres was allegedly busted by a cop that looked like them.

There's still the Savoy studio material . . . . Don't believe any of that is in either of the Mosaic Young sets.

For some reason this is one of my favorite songs, and seems like a poem to me. "Mississippi" Bob Dylan Every step of the way, we walk the line Your days are numbered, so are mine Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape City's just a jungle, more games to play Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away I was raised in the country, I been working in the town I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down Got nothing for you, I had nothing before Don't even have anything for myself anymore Sky full of fire, came pouring down Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme Only one thing I did wrong Stayed in Mississippi a day too long Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all I was thinking about the things that Rosie said I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees Feeling like a stranger nobody sees So many things that we never will undo I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too Some people will offer you their hand and some won't Last night I knew you, tonight I don't I need something strong to distract my mind I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind Well I got here following the southern star I crossed that river just to be where you are Only one thing I did wrong Stayed in Mississippi a day too long Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there Everybody's got to move somewhere Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow Things should start to get interesting right about now My clothes are wet, tight on my skin Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in I know that fortune is waiting to be kind So give me your hand and say you'll be mine Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way Only one thing I did wrong Stayed in Mississippi a day too long.

Yes, so far, it's very good.

Me too. I wish it would be on round the calendar for about seven years.

Another excellent episode of Better Call Saul.

This is a very cool set.

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Dvorak as my Dad has been as well and we're independently and collectively listening to Supraphon box sets. I've been listening to strings quartets and symphonies.

Unless they want to pay travel and other expenses?

Agreed. Lots of us have it I think, but it's a great set especially at this price.

I love Hamilton's playing on both instruments. What a palette Duke had to paint with! The twofer that Chuck posted is very good. I like many performances with Duke, none really stand out as he was consistently excellent.

Most likely appropriates the HEP. But wait for the Mosaic.

Agreed!

Several of the sessions came out as LP replicas when Denon was reissuing Savoy material in the early nineties. Then there was a two cd set of several albums reissued in the US when Atlantic took over the Savoy reissues. Between those releases most of the material was reissued in very good sound. I haven't heard the "budget" reissues. . . . If you do vinyl there are excellent two cd sets from Arista Records that reissue the entire output. Here are images of the Savoy Denon and Savoy Atlantic Cds. I believe all or nearly all the Atlantic albums have actually been reissued in Japan in the 24 bit series from Warner/Japan. And there were Japanese budget cd reissues of two of the Impulse titles last year in Japan from Universal.
