I only have "Sunset Eyes", but it's a good one.

Great suggestions, John. Thanks!

Yeah. Gotta pick it up one of these days ...

Is there one particular disk that is better than the others in the JSP set? They have it on emusic, but the new policy limits my interest in d/l'ing the whole thing.

I downloaded it from eMusic a while ago, but never got around to listening to it. Thanks for the reminder.

Just received #3599 today. GREAT! Now I've got something to do this weekend. B)

I happen to be a big Jack Bruce fan, too. He's done a lot of really unusual and interesting albums over the years. He's done some crap, too, but I gotta give him props for the variety of settings that he is willing to put himself into. I also think he's a creative songwriter. Here's some news about him that I only heard about recently. It's off of his web site (www.jackbruce.com): "Jack's health continues to improve after his successful liver transplant surgery. Jack and his family wish all their friends and supporters warmest seasons greetings and a Happy New Year 2004. To receive so many kind wishes has helped Jack greatly with his recovery. Jack is at home and cooked Christmas dinner as always for his family!"

I don't think it means that there are physically 1500 left. I don't think they print all 5,000 (or whatever) at once. They go through various printings depending on the demand and only have so many in stock at any one time.

Here are some GREAT NY Jazz Quartet albums - although I don't know their availability. I only have the LPs. Well worth hunting down! "Blues For Sarka" - Frank Wess, Roland Hanna, George Mraz, Grady Tate "Surge" - Frank Wess, Roland Hanna, George Mraz, Richard Pratt

Here's a link to a lengthy thread on JazzCorner called "Ask Robin Eubanks". He's in the group and there are several discussions with him about the band and the tour last year. Ask Robin Eubanks

I saw them last year. They were very entertaining. Enjoy!!

Very cool, Chris. You're the first one I've met who ever saw him live. Definitely a piece of history. B)

Good to hear. I had it once (about 30 years ago) and couldn't get behind it at the time. But I would imagine that it's right up my alley now.

Absolutely! Also the tune before it - "Coppin' the Haven"

It's just one of their "profit centers", I'm sure.

What is the cheapest way to buy this set from BMG? Do they run any sales that make box sets worth grabbing? I'm assuming the free shipping deal would be one way, but are there any better sales to hold out for? Unfortunately, most of the larger box sets (more than 3 CDs) don't go on sale once they have set the price. For example, the Miles 64-66 set has always been around list price, while Bitches Brew remains in the $25 range. 2-3 CD sets are the ones that are best to hold out for on sales. They also have a disclaimer that exempts them from the free shipping specials.

CONFORMIST!!! +++++++++++ +++++++++++

"Good Juice" is pretty excellent.

OK. I ordered it, dammit!

I just listened to a few clips and realized that I needed to download it. So I did.

Yeah, Chris, as long as your service has not been interrupted, you should be able to re-download all those old 128's without limit.

I was thinking about that one, myself. Haven't listened to the clips yet, though.

The only drawback to signing up then quitting on a regular basis is that you would not be able to re-download something from a previous enrollment. The system keeps track of what you have d/l'ed and does not penalize you for multiple d/l's as long as you maintain your membership. There is a list that you can access for that. It goes back to the old policy, too. As far as seeing how many tunes you have left/month. There's a link on the home page for that. It seems to be accurate, so far. Most tracks are encoded in VBR, but as mentioned previously, there are a handful that are still in the old 128 format.

Me, too. Maybe I won't order one now, just to be different. .... then again ... B)
