MartyJazz Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 I copped a mono Blue Note New York pressing of this over 30 years ago. It is a very nice album. Quote
Matthew Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 This news flash just in from Classic Records -- The release date has been pushed back. Quote
Leeway Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 It would be interesting to compare the sound of this LP and the Mosaic Select CD. Perhaps the release date got pushed back because of the Mosaic? Quote

Perhaps the release date got pushed back because of the Mosaic? Sorry Leeway, I was making a joke about how "on time" these Blue Note lps from Classic Records get released. I'm still waiting for my copy of John Jenkins with Kenny Burrell that had a release date of November 2003 . Quote
wolff Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Posted April 12, 2004 Getting Norah Jones out on vinyl while she's hot is higher priority than the Blue Notes I guess. B) Quote
