Just listened to disk #1. wow.

I think you're right. I only held on to that box because it was such an oddity.

Box arrived from Amazon today. Looking forward to it!

The only remasters I have are in the MCA box with the alternate covers, stamps(!), etc., and produced by Alan Douglas. Maybe I'll think about getting them again this year.

Definitely sounds like something worth checking out in the future. Amazing that it's only $25 (although that's GOTTA change).

There was a piece on NPR today, too. Jimi Hendrix's 1969 Album Set For Release I thought the remasters that came out earlier this decade were the "definitive" remasters. Other than the DVD stuff, how are they going to be any different? The "new" album is VERY exciting, though.

Only tempted? I think you HAVE to go! No excuses.

NICE one, Free! This is one of the first albums I ever owned. Great instro surf/hot rod set.

HAPPY B-DAY!!

Yep.

Exactly. If Guy Ritchie had spent more time on character development & storyline and less on CGI, it might have been a decent movie. It looked good, but that only goes so far (not far enough). "Feh" is right.

I don't think he mentioned Last Exit or Sonny Sharrock, who would have fit nicely in this piece. Maybe even Elliot Sharp or electric Zorn.

Going to see Al Kooper at Yoshi's tonight. Should be pretty entertaining.

I think I've finally solved it. Chat seems to work now - as do some other sites that I was having trouble with. ... some sort of DNS problem.

I don't remember ever paying more than $3 for an LP in the 60s - stereo or mono.

Is that station on the Internet? Are you really going to play Big Fun? The whole thing?

About 20 years ago I saw him in H&H Bagels on the Upper West Side in NY.

I have these doubles, excellent pressings. I somehow missed the 10 cd set. But I do have most of CBs music on a mish mash of albums on various issues as well as a couple of cds. I could do with a nice set but I would want the alternates. Yes, those came out as Emarcy 2LP sets I think, imported here from the US. I bought one of them from Mole Jazz's deletion rack 'back in the day'. Good sound, I agree. Yes, they were part of "The EmArcy Jazz Series" - a nice set of releases. There were others - I have: Cannonball Adderley "Beginnings" Maynard Ferguson "Stratospheric" Sarah Vaughan "Recorded Live"

I have 2 double LP sets of that stuff that came out on Mercury about 30 years ago. Still great. Might have to consider this set, though.

Me, too! Is it going to be the same lineup, David? It the band that has always been advertised by Yoshi's Billy Harper, Bennie Maupin, Eddie Henderson, Geri Allen, Dwayne Burno and Billy Hart. Hope you can make it. I will DEFINITELY be there, David.

Steve-a-rino looks pretty pleased with himself!

Me, too! Is it going to be the same lineup, David?

Smokin'! ... altough I'm still having trouble with the chat room. Meanwhile, it looks peachy on Chrome.

I saw a used copy of this at Amoeba today for about $38. Maybe I should go back an pick it up tomorrow.
