  1. Thanks for the heads up. I ended up springing for ten titles. Only gripe, and a minor one at that, was the $22 shipping charge. Oh well.
  2. I emailed the blackmonk address and got a swift reply. The discs are $15 each with shipping of $6.50 for the first and $2 for each additional to the US. The charge was actually for Euros not US dollars...
  3. After poking around a bit, these appear to have been Record Store Day 2019 titles. The LPs are still readily available but the CDs not so much. I'm afraid that they might be tough to come across...which is a bummer because I really enjoy Koglmann. Particularly the Hat stuff that he's done.
  4. I ordered all of the Japanese reissues. Last night I did a blind listening test with the BGO titles using Shades of Blue and Dusk Fire. Three tunes off of each album. For all six I chose the BGO remaster over the newer issues. The BGOs seemed a little brighter, but I also thought that there was more presence and detail to them as well. I'm not an audiophile by any stretch (an NAD amp and Yamaha CD player coming through new Polk Signature S60 speakers) although I do like for my music to sound good. Has anyone else done a comparison and had a similar experience/outcome? I'm curious.
  5. Sending PM on: Von Freeman -- Have No Fear (Nessa) $6 Roscoe Mitchell -- Before There Was Sound (Nessa) $6 Roscoe Mitchell -- Noonah (Nessa) $10
  6. The vinyl for Tolliver is available on Amazon and importcds.com but not the CD. Importcds lists the label as "Pure Pleasure." If this was a Mosaic exclusive wouldn't they own both formats? I just ordered through Mosaic. $6 shipping for a single CD is mighty steep. Perhaps they'll ship it with the forthcoming Mobley Mosaic that I preordered....
  7. That's a bummer. I know that you're not the seller. Thanks for taking the time to let me know.
  8. Hi, I'm interested in this: Jameel Moondoc - The Muntu Recordings NoBusiness. $45 If it's still available. PM Sent. Thank you.
  9. https://www.gshock.com/watches/g-steel/gstb100bnr-1a Saw this is available according to Blue Note’s monthly news letter. I prefer the look of the watch they did 25 years or so ago that you got by redeeming Connoisseur proof of purchases. Not only do I not like the look of this watch but $420 is out of my price range.
  10. I grabbed all of the titles on BGO and I think that they are excellent. That led me back to the Rendell/Carr quintet and then Ian Carr's music. Great music. Touches of electric Miles at times, otherwise just chock full of solid tunes and great playing Not a clunker in the whole bunch.
  11. Saw this in my Apple newsfeed this morning. Passed at age 81.
  12. Hi- So I ended up with two of the new AEOC box set. As opposed to sending one back, I'd like to offer it here for $75 which will include media mail to the CONUS. I prefer paypal or an Amazon Gift Card. Thanks.
  13. I don't think that this has been mentioned, but my set was numbered as 2133 out of 6,000.
  14. PM Sent. Thank you.
  15. I can't seem to figure out the cart to process a purchase...my google page translation is letting me down. Is there any "easier way?"
  16. Up...$7 each or all three $18 including postage in the lower 48.
  17. import cds has a coupon code "TAKE10" that can be used to reduce the price to about $70 plus shipping.
  18. "As always, please feel free to reach out to us with suggestions, comments and feedback at suggestions@bluenotereview.com. Dig you soon, Don Was / Publisher, Blue Note Review" "Dig you soon"? That alone could be a deal breaker for me. I wonder how long it took come up with that.
  19. Roy was promoting the Habana album when he came to play at the local Freihofer's Jazz Festival. He had an early afternoon set. Near the end of a tune the audio to the audience cut out. Roy was at the end of the stage killin' it. I don't know if he realized that the audio to the amphitheater was lost or not...perhaps the monitors on stage were still working, but he was well in front of them so he may not have known that either. What I recall vividly is he played his ass off acoustically for about 90 seconds to finish off the tune, filling a 5500 seat venue with an unamplified treat. The ovation he garnered was uproarious and so very well-deserved.
