Damn... that sucks. He was so talented on organ, vocals and keys and did a Jimmy Smith tribute recently

I hear you Lon, me too. Streaming for me serves as a way to test things I wanna buy. Amazon HD Music outside of hi res and more recent CD offerings is full of upconverted poorly encoded MP3's and that's really a drag but to be expected.

Glad you finally got it. The infamous package from Dusty Groove arrived last week. Two more packages one from Taiwan and somewhere else.

Definitely Cecil ish

What about Yosuke Yamashita's Chiasma as a choice for a free blow out? My friend brought it back from Japan for me, and my limited understanding is it's a Japanese free jazz classic in terms of being pivotal to that scene. It's a great wild ride when I'm in the mood for it.

Finally some movement in my package. Says estimated delivery next week

True because it's Art and Tony

Wondering if Resonance can legally issue this considering the access they have to INA and ORTF.

Dusty Groove have informed me that those of us waiting for delayed packages, they have been in close contact with the post office about the lack of packages moving and the lack of updated tracking,and to be patient. They said they hope the issue will be resolved over the next few days. There was an issue with all packages shipped April 7th apparently.

Amazing set... now is the time to revisit it.

That gives me hope it may arrive still... but yes, moving on as Tom said.

I had to file a case with USPS about my Dusty Groove order from April 7th that has not arrived. My other order which was first class (because of the Nagaoka inner CD sleeves) arrived yesterday. The fact there is zero movement beyond "acceptance pending" even though it is media mail is suspicious. I know things are taking their time so I hope before someone gets back to me in 2-3 business days it arrives.

The New Miles Davis Quintet, Cookin, Steamin', Workin', Relaxin' plus a 4th disc of previously bootlegged live recordings. Concord first released it as a longbox in 2006 but it has been since released in a tradition cube and vinyl. He also quotes "Maria" on the Legendary Quintet Sessions box

RIP

I have the Laserlight 2 CD set of this show and it is indeed terrific.

Is this one of the Cafe Bohemia sets that make up disc 4 of the Prestige Legendary Quintet set? I have not played disc 4 in years but recall the "Maria" quote there and I was very surprised

The second package is coming tommorrow, the first one is sitting but hope that it moves soon. I hope they don't lose it.

I'll stick with the Heavyweight Champion box thank you very much

Well my second package should be delivered Saturday, but the first one is still sitting inn "acceptance pending". So odd.

I feel everyone's pain. I have two orders from Da Bastids that shipped, one last tuesdaay April 7th, and one yesterday. The one from last week is still sitting in "acceptance pending" status and is media mail, while the other has the same status but I chose priority instead. Should I be worried the earlier package is lost? I know how crazy this pandemic is so I'm giving it time, but I cannot get a hold of the post office here in Yonkers during business hours or a live person at USPS. AFAIK, both packages are still in Chicago. Dusty Groove's website warns that b/c of COVID-19 delivery and handling rates may vary and media mail typically takes 1-3 weeks but usually I receive stuff from them in a matter of days, never had anything but excellent results

RIP That is... odd. Playing a CD I've had for 25 years right now and no evidence the plastic is burned off

I think At The Jazz Corner Of The World is very nice, and probably why that session was released and not this one. "Quick Trick" is ok, not great, and this album I don't think will create anything new in the JM legacy, but glad their putting it out.

RIP!
