king ubu Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Just got a reply - same 6-8 weeks statement and promise to get a whole new box! Good enough for me if it works out (about which I'm rather positive!) Quote
David Ayers Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I was going to buy the Murray - although I have got it all on vinyl I still thought it would be fun to revisit. This error makes that more difficult - how can I be sure, months or more from now, that I am buying the corrected box. Pity. Oh well, I suppose I do have it all already... Quote
king ubu Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 That's somewhat of an issue indeed... silly enough, but it might be best to buy it now, complain and receive a fixed set later on.And it would seem to me that if you buy it later on and happen to get a faulty set, they should still offer a replament then...

cliffpeterson Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 I received a response today from Simone at Camjazz that repeats the information already provided Quote
colinmce Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Can I just verify that the error amounts to a poor-sounding trombone solo? I can live with thatI might add that I'm still chugging along with the Murray box but I just. don't. get. it. Love Murray in other settings, love all the players, but the arrangements sound so, so off. Just like, not right. I don't know what I'm missing here. It just sounds wrong. Quote
king ubu Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 No, the error amounts to one channel being entirely missing, while on that channel, the other one is duplicated. That does not amount to a real mono-mix - it is mono, but it misses lots of "information". Quote
colinmce Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 I see. That doesn't sound good. Quote
webbcity Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 I sure hope they keep these boxes coming. They haven't yet gotten to some of the stuff I really need (except for the Dixon box). My wish list would be: Billy Bang M.R. Abrams Julius Hemphill Frank Lowe Jarman/Moye (though there are only 3 of these, so they might have to combine with George Lewis/Douglas Ewart or Roscoe Mitchell & do an AACM thing) Leroy Jenkins ...

king ubu Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 re: Jarman/Moye - the Lester Bowie set is only 3CD as well Quote
7/4 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Cecil box has arrived! I'm crazy about it. Woo-hoo! Quote
colinmce Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 GEORGE E LEWIS above all else. Second on MRA, Hemphill, Bang & Lowe. Would also like to see Ran Blake, Andrew Cyrille, more David Murray, John Lindberg, Dave Douglas, and Hamiet Bluiett. Quote
David Ayers Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 I guess if these sets sell well - as it seems they do - they'll just press on through the catalogue. Quote
webbcity Posted January 30, 2012 Report Posted January 30, 2012 re: Jarman/Moye - the Lester Bowie set is only 3CD as well Right you are! Didn't realize that. Quote
Kyo Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Would be cool to get an Art Farmer set (with the Jazztet album added). Or one for the Adams/Pullen material. Quote
king ubu Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Would be cool to get an Art Farmer set (with the Jazztet album added). Or one for the Adams/Pullen material. Yes indeed. Chico Hamilton, too! I guess if these are indeed selling as well as seems to be the case, as our beloved voice of dissent has said, they'll just keep putting out their catalogue in this form. Suits me well as I only have a couple of dozen or so items yet... (I dimly remember some Soul Note/Black Saint discussion in the huge funny rat-thread some years back - but I've never really followed all the recommmendations from there). Quote
7/4 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 I just picked up a copy of the Lester Bowie box. Quote
king ubu Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 Got shipping confirmations for the four new ones from amazon.fr! Quote

romualdo Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Posted February 7, 2012 Also got a mail that the replacement for the Murray box is on its way! That was faster than anticipated! same here Dear Stephen, today we will send by priority mail the Box Set of David Murray BXS 1010 without mistakes. Sorry for delay.

Rosco Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 Yep, same confirmation email here. Excellent service. Quote
aurelio Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 Does the David Murray replacement only apply if it was purchased via CamJazz? What email was used to contact CamJazz? THANKS! Quote
jazzbo Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 I think the answer to the first is "no." And I have contacted camjazz successfully several times via the "Contact Us" link on their home page. Quote
