Miles Bootleg Vol. 2 is available from WOW HD for $15.99 with free shipping.http://www.wowhd.us/CD/miles-davis-miles-davis-quintet-live-in-europe-1969-3cd-dvd/dp/32012157#bc=9de5

I received mine today. It's a reputable site (used to be called CD-Wow).

How long did yours take to arrive. Still waiting for a shipping notice a week later.

I went on to my account and the status was "back ordered". Not impressed so far. HDwow still advertises the set for $15.99 with 7-10 days for shipping. Nothing about being a back ordered product.

I ordered on Feb 22, received confirmation right away, and it came March 6, so 12 days total. I don't know what the stock/fulfillment time situation may be since then, but the price is so good it's probably worth waiting it out, especially since we know they've actually been fulfilling orders on something that I thought at first to be a price mistake.

I ordered the same day as cloninmce and just received a shipping notice. :)

It is now once again listed as in stock for the same price, $15.99 or €11.99 through their EU sites.

I also just received a "despatch notification". I'll have to be more patient next time. Looking forward to hearing this.

Any thoughts on this Bill Withers box? Not jazz, exactly, but his hits have a nice feel to them. 9 discs, $23.30 from an Amazon reseller:

I did't see this until today, but by all means, get this box set if you haven't yet, I have enjoyed it immensely since I purchased it, great music runs through every album.

Apparently, I'm very late to the party on this (I discovered several threads on this subject from around 2010-2011 after the fact), but there are a few Mosaic sets available on iTunes at a steep discount. In particular, Stanley Turrentine is $19! That is impulse-buy territory. Should I be boycotting this, however, in solidarity with Mosaic?

My guess is that this is EMI just finding another outlet for the product so I'm not sure anyone is "betraying Mosaic" by buying some of these files. I wouldn't do it, but that's because I don't like digital files more than anything else.

I can live with the digital files, as long as they are stored on a compact disc and placed in a numbered black box with a big picture book. ;-)

Completely off topic but I've never understood why the iTunes store has never allowed searching by record label.

On Amazon UK search on mp3 music/'blue note'/mp3 albums/price 'high to low' to find a few box set equivalents.

Ok, a real bargain for once but don't expect it to last. The 20 CD 'Perfect Miles Davis Collection' for just over 5 pounds on Amazon UK.

Wow! As someone who resold a bunch of discs like Milestones, Someday My Prince Will Come for the remasters some 12 years ago or whenever it was, that just blows my mind? :blink::lol: I hope there are a few lurking with 5 quid in pocket who decide maybe just maybe I should check this Miles guy out more in depth.

For anyone in the UK, that deal is effectively a freebie, as the postage would be at least £5. Unbelievable !

Miles Davis on Columbia quantitative easing perhaps?
