B. Goren. Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) George Coleman - Amsterdam After Dark Johnny Coles - New Morning I'm familiar with almost everything Coleman recorded as a leader and IMHO "Amsterdam After Dark" is one of his best recordings ever. "New Morning" is also one of my favorites. Edited March 10, 2011 by B. Goren. Quote

AndrewHill Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 lucky day at the used store yesterday: Joe McPhee Po Music - Linear B Nice find. I'm under the impression that this one is long OOP. Today, a pretty lucky find myself: Mick Goodrick-In Pas(s)ing-ECM Amazon list some pretty crazy prices in the $150 range, found this copy for $8. Quote

Today, a pretty lucky find myself: Mick Goodrick-In Pas(s)ing-ECM Amazon list some pretty crazy prices in the $150 range, found this copy for $8. Yes, but the fact that a copy of "Linear B" turned up in the used shoppe might indicate an upcoming reissue? Not that I knew, but often that seems to be the case... I find some rare or OOP stuff and soonafter, a reissue is out. The Goodrick is good - got the LP some months back. Quote
colinmce Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 Topology is slated for reissue, but not Linear B. I plan to one day own all of McPhee's Hats with Boni & Jaume, but it will be a long and rather expensive project indeed. Amazing music, that. Quote

Hilton Ruiz' playing is outstanding, too! Quote
king ubu Posted March 12, 2011 Report Posted March 12, 2011 Got my Mosaic order today... had to pay taxes but only for the value they put onto the declaration Argo, EmArcy and Verve Small Group Buddy Rich Sessions The Complete Roulette Sarah Vaughan Sessions The Complete Roost Johnny Smith Small Group Sessions John Carter & Bobby Bradford - Mosaic Select One of the Rich discs has a crack or some manufacturing error... it was sealed of course, so it's hardly anyone's blame. Never had this before, had small bubbles in the CD layer or scratches, but this one goes right through and is visible both from front and back... possibly it might have been caused by the strain from the spine? The discs would hardly get off once more... anyway, I'm glad I checked them all closely and spotted this in time before it might too OOP! Does anyone know the percentage of Euro sets with the Rich? It was planned to arrive at 10'000 units, mine is just #2725, so that would mean Mosaic have sold around 3000, most likely? I doubt that there were 7000 euro sets, as this was one of the more elusive ones over here... so this was likely not as good a seller as they'd hoped for. Anyway, there are lots of sessions here that look mighty tempting, and other than "Buddy & Sweets", it's all new to me! Quote
sidewinder Posted March 12, 2011 Report Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) Got my Mosaic order today... had to pay taxes but only for the value they put onto the declaration Argo, EmArcy and Verve Small Group Buddy Rich Sessions Mine arrived today too ! No tax on mine, fortuitously (and it was just the one set and a couple of singles). Quite right that they tax the Gnomes of Zurich My Rich set is #2753 by the way. So likely the number of 'real' Mosaics of this one was less than 2800 and the number of 'Euro' sets probably comparable, I guess. Around 5,000 out of a 10,000 'theoretical' run?

king ubu Posted March 12, 2011 Report Posted March 12, 2011 Ah well, if it was my choice, them gnomes would all be expelled to some cozy place like... Lybia. Quote

kh1958 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 From amazon.com, a used copy of The Lobi Traore Band, and at HPB, Clifford Gibson's Beat You Doing It (Yazoo CD). Quote
golfcrazy1984 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 "Steppin' Into Swing Society" by Mercer Ellington. Lot's of great cats in the band. Clark Terry, Cat Anderson, Shorty Baker...Hodges, Webster, Strayhorn, etc.!!! Never heard this music before, not groundbreaking, but great to hear "new" music. Especially for such a fan of this music...all things Ellingtonian. Quote
