Thanks! Gunther Schuller had mentioned to me that dramatic decline in jazz clubs on NY, when he was in Athens 6 years ago invited by the Greek-American Union. He was so dissapointed namely for the musicians who cannot make a living out of jazz.

Here we are. #0429 vinyl box.

+1000 I just saw that my udiscover order was shipped on Tuesday 24/12. Their message went to the spam folder. No tracking number though... Let's see.

Hello to all. No news whatsoever regarding my August preorder ( cd and vinyl sets) from udiscover. Shipped or not shipped? Anybody at the same or similar status? Thanks.

A nice record. Perfect pressing, beautiful sleeve incl. the replica inner one.

The Connoiseur CD track list: 01. If Ever I Would Leave You (Lerner-Loewe) - 10:34 02. Mirrors (Chambers) - 6:53 03. For Duke P. (Hutcherson) - 7:54 04. The Kicker (Henderson) - 6:07 05. Step Lightly (Henderson) - 14:19 06. Bedouin (Pearson) - 8:11 Joe Henderson - tenor saxophone Bobby Hutcherson - vibes Grant Green - guitar (#4-6) Duke Pearson - piano Bob Cranshaw - bass Al Harewood - drums Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, NJ on December 29, 1963.

As a Greek I was amazed by the oriental scales played in this track. Then the explanation came with the co-crediting to the Greek-American Nick Gravenites who obviously introduced Bloomfield et al. to such scales. Groundbreaking. Just in: https://bestclassicbands.com/paul-butterfield-documentary-7-28-17/ The Doc is out on DVD!

Vinyl set is today in-stock. So they should ship today. CD set available on the 20th of December.

Thanks too! I wonder if the vinyl record set will be sold also by amazon or other retailer. I hope to. Alex

So, no retailer offers the Complete sets (Vinyl, CDs) until now? Only udiscover?

I am enjoying this set a lot. Just got the vinyl set.

Transparent Blue Vinyl is coming:

So, considering these preorders are fully charged already, it becomes a subscription service with us financing the project. Just sayin'.

23/32, nice northern breeze. Tomorrow our vacation starts on Skopelos island (where Mama Mia was shot).

25/35 Celcius or 78/95 F, in Athens.

Even the Mamoth Woodstock Box shipping is just 30 EUR from UK to Greece...

Thanks! I just got the code. Regarding shipping I just tried with various EU countries. UK is as you said. Germany is 55 Euro, Italy 118 Euro and Greece 135 Euro !! Unbelievable. Very dissapointing. ***Will these LP and CD big boxes be available from amazon etc.?***

I still cannot get how I receive this 10% discount... please help! Thanks! I cannot believe they charge 135 Euro for the LP and CD boxsets for EU shipping. Is it actually the EU/UK website or the US one? Thanks again!

Great, thanks!

Acc. to the listing at cdjapan it looks like these mini lp/shm-cds have the latest Abbey Road remasters aka the ones by Jazzman LP set.

The BGOs are stereo also. Never issued as stereo originally? Interesting. So BGO also worked from the original stereo tapes. I do not have the booklets handy, but I wonder if the stereo tapes were also mixed originally.
