Let me know if you can get it over there at a reasonable price. I couldn't find it listed anywhere at any of the stateside internet stores I usually check out. When I Googled the CD it looked like all of the listings were from overseas. I'll have to keep an eye out for it. I wonder if it will eventually become available among the many ECM listings on BMG Music Service/Yourmusic.com? Quote

mikelz777 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) It is with considerable shame and embarrassment that I've once again fallen prey to my weaknesses and succumbed to the alluring siren song of the BMG Music Service. This time I saw it as a great opportunity to pick up some interesting ECM titles. I had hoped to pick up the Baby Face Willette CD as well but it disappeared on me before I could join and order. I'd appreciate any feedback on these titles from anyone who is willing. All of these artists would be new to me except Brahem and Charlap. My first seven "free" CD picks were: Enrico Rava - Tati Enrico Rava - The Words And The Days ===== Anouar Brahem - Thimar Jan Garbarek - Ragas And Sagas ===== Dino Saluzzi - Ojos Negros (I'm taking the chance that it won't be a dud for me.) Bill Charlap Trio - Live AT The Village Vanguard Brad Mehldau - Art Of The Trio Vol. 1 ===== Edited January 18, 2008 by mikelz777 Quote
Niko Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 Brad Mehldau - Art Of The Trio Vol. 1 ===== i only know the first four of them, but imho the third art of the trio disc is by far the best ("Songs" featuring a great version of Nick Drake's River Man) Quote

I'll have to check it out if vol. 1 works out for me. Unfortunately, vol. 1 is the only one offered by BMG so I'd have to check for it elsewhere. Quote

Personally, i think 3 is the best of the bunch (studio wise, that is ...5 -- 'Progression' recorded live is a gem) but 1 isn't far behind. Quote
Free For All Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 Was at the mall this afternoon, so my daughter could spend a gift certificate she got for Christmas. I ducked in to F.Y.E. while there, just to see what overpriced stock they have left (and not much seems like 70% of their inventory is compilations now). But they DID have the Art Pepper Village Vanguard box, and it appeared to be new, for $49.99. Couldn't resist. Turned out it looks like it's a remaindered item, but that's ok with me Erik, did they have any more copies? As of this post, Newbury Comics is selling it via Amazon Marketplace for $49.99 new. Amazon Marketplace link Mine arrived from Newbury today. A very sweet deal! Thanks for the heads up, guys! :rsmile: Quote

Niko Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Lonnie Smith - Think! usually can't resist when the local brick and mortar store has something that's remotely on my want list... always decide not to go there anymore, because i never get what i need most badly , but then i like brick and mortar stores and i don't really know what i need badly... have spun it twice so far, nice, but i think i will listen to Turning Point more in the long run... Quote
king ubu Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Hm, I only have "Turning Point" so far... And I'm oh so sympathetic about that annoying behaviour in brick and mortar stores... ever more so if they have what they call "sales" (meaning they're actually not totally beyond competition in terms of prices)... there are days where I can't leave without picking up a dozen discs, no matter how common and how much in print these may be (RVGs, Universal stuff... sometimes they also have SteepleChase or Leo sales... though usually it's just BN, Universal, and earlier on also Fantasy/OJC now and then... too bad I wasn't all over those when they were more common!)

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 The incessant rain stopped today, so I had a little shopping trip into Cardiff and bought: A wonderful CD - I have got the first 8 tracks on original LPs but, of the new material, the title track is just incredible! I've been looking for this for ages - I didn't find out about it until after it had been deleted. But Spillers had managed to get one in and I snapped it up quickly, in preference to the Jimmy Smith Conn, at the same price. Checking the track list carefully, I find I have 45 of the 106 tracks already. So I may assemble the others into something, or perhaps combine them with vinyl drops of other material by the same artists. One of the problems with this type of compilation, though it's MUCH worse on a 4 CD set, is that there are no ballads or slow grinds included. If the aim, as it says on the cover, is to present a history of this style, at least a few ballads and slow grinds are very important. Those guys could play a ballad so sexy, there'd be knickers all over the dance floor at the end! Same with slow, rocking blues. That was what this music was FOR! Still, the lack didn't stop my buying this, even though I knew what to expect MG Quote
