Thanks to a repeatable BMG code I went on a year-end buying spree of which these are the last. What can I say about Soulville, pretty fabulous blues playing and the ballads are The Beast at the top of his game. This is my new favorite BW release, second only to Atmosphere For Lovers and Thieves. Symphonica is a calculated risk, as my appetites are finicky when it comes to jazz with the symphony orchestra.

Jo Stafford - Autumn in New York/Starring to Stafford (Capitol)

Hoagy Carmichael - Hoagy Sings Carmichael / The stardust road (Pacific)

James Moody - Timeless Aura (Vanguard)

A real bargain from France!

Same here! I just got a great bargain on this set a few weeks ago from the former US distributor of Oehms (Naxos of America has now taken on that role :huh:), which was blowing out its entire Oehms stock at deep discounts. :tup

Great! I'm really looking forward to getting it. The email came this morning to say it had been dispatched.

You may have already seen this, but here is one of the glowing reviews of the set (when it was issued on Arte Nova, prior to Oehms reissuing it):

and a follow-up on the Oehms reissue:

http://www.classicstoday.com/review.asp?ReviewNum=7457

By the way, as the second review mentions, there is no listing of individual tracks and timings in the booklet that comes with the box, so I just printed it off of this page and stuck it in the box! :)

BMG has a Haitink/Concertgebouw Bruckner set on Phillips - 9 cd's for $29 - anybody heard this or have an opinion of it? Worth picking up?
