  1. Even if that engineer has ears that are 40-50 years older and now hears things differently (as we all do)? Well, if RVG's ears are as compromised as many infer, he has some really able help lately, because the RVGs of the last few years sound really good to me. Listening to "The Right Touch" right now. . .which is really an apt title for how this sounds! I think it's one of my favorite sounding Blue Notes!
  2. Thanks I needed that.

    Roland Kirk

    Sheer genius that Kirk!
  6. Both excellent sets! Best of luck!
  7. Oh gosh. . . I think I play her Chronogical Classics (Asch, Circle, etc.) material most. . . just really like the way they are and flow. And I love the live Zodiac Suite stuff. And. . . I really like Zoning and Mary Lou's Mass and the solo stuff. . . . Well. . . . I'm a big fan. The forties stuff has an energy I really like. . . the latest stuff has so much passion and strength. . . the religious stuff has real heart. She was a monstrous talent.
  8. No argument from me.
  9. I wish the Pee Wee Russell session didn't sound so awful!
  10. Fantastic music! I've had this music on vinyl and in several different cd versions, and kept the Masters of Jazz cd version (and the Keynote vinyl box version). Just doesn't get better than this. . . Pres. . .longtime favorite sessions.
  11. Oy vey. Well, never was a Police fan. . . probably some fault of mine, I must have no listening talent.
  12. I love all three of those cds. . . excellent music and excellent renditions and excellent recorded sound.
  13. Hmmm. . . ."Inner Glow" I have no doubt you will really like. And I think you'll like "The View Within" as much as "Waiting". . . .Just a hunch.
  14. Those are great cds those HEP Wilsons! Of course it includes the Holiday material, but there are many another great vocal and nonvocal track in these.
  15. I DO think that Mosaic takes customer suggestions to heart and really thinks about the possibilities. At the time you sent the suggestion who would have thought that BMG and Sony would be one umbrella? (Well someone might have. . . ) It's scary in many ways, but does have benefits in the reissue game. . . .
  16. I like both Strayton and Ellinghorn. A lot!
  17. Hmmm. . . more stuff that I wish came out here (the Tristano) from the sanctioned rather than there. I've already got the Ra book. Interesting. I wouldn't say essential, but interesting. I haven't "read it" yet (there's a lot of artwork, not a lot of text).
  18. Yes, now I remember. Back in the very early digital days.
  19. In my opinion it's far from the best Blue Note Dex, but it's good. . . I like "I'm a Fool to Want You" a LOT.
  20. Weird. I didn't notice that. I hope the discographical page is correct, though either way we should get good sound. I would think, if they're really going in the vaults, that the Meyers transfers would be correct.
  21. No, neither BMG nor yourmusic has it.
  22. Compulsion!
  23. It's unissued on cd; was on the Complete box set. Was I believe a release from Cuscuna's vault trips of the eighties. (I could be wrong; I'm sure to be corrected if I am).
  24. Looks like a great set! Andreas Meyer transfers, Addey mastering. . . going to sound great too.
