Still waiting for one of my long ago preorders with them to ship... kind of done with the preorder game if it's going to take this long. Absolutely ! I have the old ‘Reel’ CD but this set builds significantly on it. Amazing how well Phil Seaman and John Stevens functioned as a 2-drum unit and tragic that Seaman was dead within 4 weeks of the last, Stockwell gig. The book (brilliant) mentions that later ‘Splinters’ variant sessions into 1974 sans Hayes and Seaman from the Trevor Watts archive might be forthcoming, in which case ‘bring it on’. Sorry to hear that your CDs have been delayed Clifford. I know that JIB HQ have just relocated from Farnham up to Holmfirth, quite a distant move, so that is probably the reason. Must have been disruptive to their operations. Edited March 5, 2022 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabshakeh Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Jimmy Smith - Back at the Chicken Shack (Blue Note, 1963) Stanley Turrentine's solo on "When I Grow Too Old To Dream" is one of my favourites that I revisit every so often to remind myself that it really is that good.

Still waiting for one of my long ago preorders with them to ship... kind of done with the preorder game if it's going to take this long. Yeah I have the same feelings about pre-orders. I’ve been waiting for the Horace Tapscott - Tapscott + Winds I ordered at the beginning of the year and was supposed to ship January. I saw the new Jesse Sharp and the Wu Ensemble, ordered it and asked about my pre-order. Magically its shipping now but I’m irritated because it’s shipping with the Jesse Sharp and I paid separate shipping for each. Shady in my opinion.

I noticed the release on the website and would have ordered immediately, but the shipping cost to USA (inclusive of the massive book) took the cost over my limit. Will have to reconsider...My experience with JIB has been good, but I've always been leery of preorders, especially overseas ones, so never took that risk.

sidewinder Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 That’s the one downside with this set. Due to it’s size shipping even here in the UK is not the cheapest but to be fair they include ‘signed for’ delivery. It is worth it though.

I get that it's missing the book, but you could just buy the download for 10 Pounds and burn it to a CD-R yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Mary Lou Williams - Zodiac Suite First time I'd listened to this. It reminds me a lot of John Fahey work 25 years later in its mix of roots and classical modernism. I wonder whether Fahey knew the record.
