sidewinder Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 i do remember having a time trying to figure out how to open a jewel case! Not to mention endless battles with thin cardboard boxes. The Blue Note ones were particularly impervious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris olivarez Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 They were definitely a pain in the butt to try and open in the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Clugston Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Mine was Soft Machine's The Peel Sessions, a 2 CD set of BBC performances. The Hendrix at Winterland was another early purchase. First "jazz" discs were Brubeck's The Great Concerts and Getz/Gilberto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted July 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Just stumbled over a CD I bought the same summer as the other three in my first post: Artie Shaw - BEGIN THE BEGUINE (Bluebird) Liner notes by Chris Albertson, which I guess this also means that of the few jazz writings in my collection, I've had Albertson's the longest!

DTMX Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 1987: Bought The Ultimate Otis Redding and Songs to Learn and Sing by Echo & the Bunnymen. Then the Marvin Gaye Anthology, and a few weeks later Talking Heads' Naked. After a few more months I had saved up enough money to buy a CD player. That's when I was able to hear them for the first time (the first on my block with one of them compactified doodad players). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
