ralphie_boy Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Five pounds? I'll be afraid to open the box! Maybe I'll just put it on the shelf and look at it reverently from time to time... Mine showed up yesterday. No chance of hiding this baby from the wife; it came in box the size of a refrigerator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WD45 Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 I saw the box in the local record store downtown yesterday. Gorgeous. Full retail listed there at only $99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Oh well, you already see and/or have the box, and I finally get notice from CDUniverse that they shipped it... will take another week I assume, if not longer. ubu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 I received notification that my set shipped yesterday and, when I went to UPS to see where it was, found that it was delivered two hours ago. I can't wait to get home from the gym and take a look at this set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John B Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 gym? wtf?!? are funny rats allowed there? post some impressions, John! wow, green with envy! Yes, but I had to get special permission and they still won't play any Brotzmann on their stereo. The set is stunning visually. I could spend a few hours just going through the book and assorted goodies enclosed in the box and not get bored. You are in for a real treat when this shows up on your doorstep. I have to keep reminding myself that there is some music tucked away in there, too. All 10 cds worth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejo Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 I just received my copy out here in Seattle and am currently listening to Disc one. Those first three songs with the Herbert Katz Quintet are quite a trip. The accompanying book is just amazing! I'm looking forward to hearing the La Cave recordings. Not much else I can add that hasn't already been mentioned... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaney Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 I don't have the Revenant Patton set but I must say that the spirit box that houses this set is not quite what I was expecting. Don't ask me why but I was expecting some sort of faux leather jobby but instead it's plastic. Hmmm... Also, the CDs are not in cases. Hmmm... Again, not familiar with Revenant but is this typical of thier packaging? Mind you, I'm not complaining. I'd much rather have a less expensive plastic box sitting in my closet that a no doubt more expensively produced box. (NOT complaints; just observations. I bought the set for the music, not the wrappings. Hope that nips in the bud my being bitch-slapped.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 I don't get it...one's "three day select", one's already in Monterey, and mine's going slowboattochina ground and scheduled for delivery next Tuesday!

John L Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Friday seems to be the day. Mine is scheduled to arrive on Friday too. It's going to be TGIF tomorrow for a lot of people. But not me, actually. I am currently not at home, and won't get my hands on it until the 16th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 My question about the box. What are the happy purchasers of the 'Holy Ghost' doing (or going to do) with the dry flower that comes inside the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaney Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 My question about the box. What are the happy purchasers of the 'Holy Ghost' doing (or going to do) with the dry flower that comes inside the box? First off, I'll at least seal the cellophane envelope so it's not necessary that I again clean the inside of the box of the bits of fower entrails.

brownie Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Not yet. Would rather smoke havanas first... Might plant the seeds to see what comes out of those. Ay Ayler tree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
