MartyJazz Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 Hep Records titles are on sale over at Allegro. Damn you! I just ordered a couple of items. Between them and a few e-bay auctions I've won, I better start cooling it soon. But let me highly recommend that on the last page of the above link (p7), the 3 CD box set of Artie Shaw's 1944-45 output for both RCA Victor and Musicraft is available for $33 in change, better than the $45 I originally paid for it. I love this particular Shaw band - very forward looking with Roy Eldridge, Dodo Marmarosa, Herbie Steward, Barney Kessel et al in the band and wonderful charts by Buster Harding, George Siravo, Ray Conniff, Eddie Sauter and others. Really wonderful stuff. And you have Shaw's clarinet work, the greatest ever IMO. Quote
ghost of miles Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 I'll second Marty's comments on that 1944-45 Shaw set... also posted news of this in the Reissues forum Hep thread. Quote
