  1. RIP Peggy Here, in Blow Up
  2. HA! So THAT'S why I never heard it 🤩 The whole album has a great flow to it. Especially the long tunes like 20th Century Dreaming where the second half long jam is very intense ... but in a low key kind of way.
  3. Listened to it yesterday. Amazing! How come I never heard it before?
  4. Sad to see graffiti on it, too
  5. I think they're just straight remasters with original tracks and original album art (shrunken down), which would be my only complaint about these sets. It's nearly impossible to read the liner notes.
  6. I should listen to that. I like Sylvian but for some reason haven't heard that album Don't know Rush albums very well, but that's definitely a good one.
  7. I was lucky to grab one at Big Ears (photo not mine)
  8. Shades is definitely good. I have the album - not the box.
  9. I enjoy that box because it's about Keepnews's personal favorites rather than a "best of" or "greatest hits" or something like that. And it's organized in an unusual way, too.
  10. Can't go wrong with the Sadies! (RIP, Dallas)
  11. I'm amazed at all the shows on the list that I DON'T remember. Maybe I'm just getting old and forgetful 😆
  12. A nice collection all the way around. An fitting tribute to both Bobby and Cuscuna.
  13. #150 The Complete Blue Note 1964-66 Jackie McLean Sessions
  14. 1972: RIP Mayall
  15. Finally worked my way through the box. What a great set! As mentioned earlier I only had about half of these albums. This box really points to Bobby as a critical cog in the 60s BN sound. Not only with high profile ‘side men,’ but the sophisticated level of the compositions. My only minor quibble is the odd way some of the albums are broken up across disks. I understand why they did it, but since the sessions are all noted by the album names, it’s a little awkward.
