Nice pic!

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.

Can't go wrong with the Sadies! (RIP, Dallas)

I'm amazed at all the shows on the list that I DON'T remember. Maybe I'm just getting old and forgetful 😆

A nice collection all the way around. An fitting tribute to both Bobby and Cuscuna.

#150 The Complete Blue Note 1964-66 Jackie McLean Sessions

1972: RIP Mayall

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.

Great production by John Leventhal

Ride "Weather Diaries"

Same as the second Eastern Rebellion Quartet (after George Coleman). They're ALL good!

Just saw them a few months ago at the Big Ears Festival. Outstanding!

Mine arrived on Monday

I've received several notices that I'm getting the box tomorrow 👍🎶
