Out on what label? I have a Japanese 24 bit remaster that sounds pretty good. Before that, I had it on a US CD on the Portrait label. That one sounded like crap... all tinny and harsh. Sounded like an early stab at CD making.

It's the Woody Shaw I'm most looking forward to. The Brookmeyer is excellent too, much better than the usual all-star affair IMHO. The Mulligan looks good, but be warned it is pretty short (30" or so).

How's the Jamal?

Musically, it is excellent - I have the previous French 2 CD edition. But someone told me these were mastered from second generation tapes with reverb added, so I wonder about the sound of the new one. If you like the recent Argo reissue, this is a must!

It's a done deal, then- I love the Argo. It was fascinating to hear the version of New Rumba on which Gil Evans based his Miles Ahead arrangement.
