7/4 Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 The music is pretty good, if you like "contemporary classical" or whatever they call orchestral and string quartet music being written after 1950. (Actually I have to say that the BBC radio 3 seems light years ahead of anything in the US for sponsoring and playing loads of new compositions, and I tried to listen to most of these shows. And I see that the Chicago Symphony has a few world premiere pieces and I may go see those shows. So I guess I am doing my bit to support expanding the canon.) wkcr has some new music programing between 3-5 edst M-F, sometimes I tune in to check it out. Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 freedom of the city2001/large groups/london improvisors orchestra/strings with & without evan parker this wonderful recording received considerable support and parts of it may have appeared on radio 3. Quote
Niko Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 Charles Tolliver - Impact (Enja) Tina Brooks - True Blue (used copy of the 1994 conn, maybe not the best idea to buy that now, but an easy way to get a non copy-protected copy at 5,99) Grant Green - Talkin About (if you have a Wohlthat'sche Buchhandlung nearby it may be worth going there, as they have some of the Spanish TimeLife BlueNotes and of the 24Bit remastered Black Lion CDs at 2,99 each) Quote
JohnJ Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 In a little local store, among a bunch of Jpop dross, a used TOCJ of Baby Face Willette 'Face to Face' at the equivalent of a little over $3. Great CD. Quote
sal Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Well, I was on amazon.com to buy a road atlas of France, and I decided to have a little fun since I just got my 2006 year end bonus at work. Picked up a couple of OJCs I fear may not be around much longer: Carmell Jones - Jay Hawk Talk Harold Land - The Fox Mal Waldron - The Quest Art Pepper - Thursday at the Village Vanguard With these, the new RVGs and my recent Mosaic order, I think its time to slow down.

But on Amazon the only copy of The Chant goes for around $49.99. Does anyone know for sure what Concord is going to keep in print and what titles they are going to let go out of print ? Quote

Aggie87 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 Finally ordered the Miles Complete Stockholm (Dragon) 4 cd set today. Got it for a good price on half.com ($35). Quote
king ubu Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 I'm having more money than I ever had... got a bonus and a one-off gratification at the place where I work part-time besides studying, and so I took another plunge in the Universal/OJC sale (sale means 9€ per disc, but this time they made me pay for one less than what I picked) - Pres in D.C. Vols. 3-5 (missing Vol. 2) - Wynton Kelly "Full View" - Duke Latin "American Suite" - Lee Konitz Duets - Gil Evans & Ten - The Hawk Relaxes (RVG) - Poll Winners "Straight Ahead" - Jackie Mac "Makin' the Changes" & "McLean's Scene" - Lockjaw "Cookbook Vol. 1" (RVG) - Bruceck "Jazz at Oberlin", "Octet" & "Stardust" - Nat Adderley "Much Brass" - Montgomery Brothers "Groove Brothers" - Stitt/McDuff "Stitt Meets Brother Jack" Quote
Sundog Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Finally ordered the Miles Complete Stockholm (Dragon) 4 cd set today. Got it for a good price on half.com ($35). FYI- Make sure that your set doesn't contain a duplicate of one of the discs (I believe #2) and missing one all together (#3?). Even though they may be labeled correctly be sure to check them out right away. There have been issues with some sets including my copy. Quote

I'll definitely check it out quickly when it arrives. -Erik Quote
Matthew Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 I blame Chaney for this, since he gave me a copy of the one disk introduction to this set about a year ago: Ictus Records' 30th Anniversary Collection Box Set. Quote
BruceH Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 Harry Edison---Sweets Thad Jones---Detroit/New York Junction I don't think I'm gonna regret either one. Quote
ejp626 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 I picked up Shirley Scott's For Members Only/Great Scott for a fair price, as well as Willie Bobo's Spanish Grease/Uno Dos Tres (love that cover) and East Coast West Coast Scene with Shorty Rogers and Al Cohn (playing separately). I really wanted to get Sweets by Sweets Edison, but the price wasn't right, so I will order it a bit later. Quote
ejp626 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 Harry Edison---Sweets Thad Jones---Detroit/New York Junction I don't think I'm gonna regret either one. That's funny. That looks exactly like my next Amazon order! Quote

montg Posted March 25, 2007 Report Posted March 25, 2007 Harry Edison---Sweets Thad Jones---Detroit/New York Junction I don't think I'm gonna regret either one. I'm spinning 'Sweets' right now, coincidentally. It swings hard right out of the gate and never looks back. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Yeah! Yeah! - and I haven't even started playing it yet! also got MG Quote

mikeweil Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) - Gil Evans & Ten So you say you didn't get the hybrid SACD? The OJC sounds a lot inferior! Edited March 28, 2007 by mikeweil Quote
