I've been intending to buy some Graham Bond since reading Dick Heckstall Smith's book--perhaps this is the one I should buy.
This is really an outtakes collection. Start with the twofer of "The Sound of '65/There's a Bond Between Us' reissued on BGO. That's the classic stuff and the logical starting point. 'Solid Bond' is supplementary for the already-converted.

C.Freeman, T.Edwards, C.Potter, I.Sulieman discs added. Thanks for looking.
PM sent on the Edwards and Sulieman

What Lon said. These are highly recommended.
Great news. Have been hoping to replace my old cassettes of these for a long time.

Wasn't one of the sessions on the Ike Quebec, "From Hackensack to Englewood Cliffs" (which I have) issued on some domestic cd?
Hmmm...looking at the cds, I don't think so...
Perhaps I'm thinking of "Congo Lament"...
The first 8 tracks on the disc were released on the 45 Sessions Mosaic & Blue Note reissue. Leaving only Cry Me A River and Uptight as the orphaned tracks.
Yeah, and I still think Michael Cuscuna goofed up when he didn't put those two extra tracks onto the Connoisseur CD of the 45 Sessions. I forget his exact reasoning, but I doubt those tracks will ever see the light of day on CD again.
Which brings up one of my biggest RVG gripes. Major pieces left off the RVG Jimmy Smith CD's which have the 'Sermon'/'HouseParty' sessions, which showed up on the original CD's of those sessions. What's up there?
-
get it - Bond is a major figure (also a fine if undeveloped alto player as well); great bandleader and this is some of the most important stuff to come out of the British scene, IMHO-
Good also for a really early view of McLaughlin.

Up with some price reduction and 2 new Mosaic Singles.
The Art Farmer is spectacular! Someone needs to jump on it! Great mid-60's quintet with Jimmy Heath (and some great Jimmy Heath compositions).

OK, I really just need to stick to eBay, CD Universe, Hiroshi Tanno, and Chuck Nessa. And if those go south, I'm fucked!
Hi,I would like to buy archie shepp-live in san francisco $8.00 if possible.
Thanks for your reply on the other.
Can I mail you payment? If so, please advise total, and your mailing address. Also, I live in Toronto, Canada if you need to estimate shipping.
Thanks,
Peter
the whole me having to go to the post office and fill out custom forms and wait in line and find out shipping and then tell you and get payment via the mail and you having to mail a postcard of your own to me with a very small cash amount or god forbid a check and then me potentially having to fill out a deposit slip for that check all over one inexpensive CD sounds like a scenario neither of us really should want to be a part of. just my opinion?A series of possible compromises here to enable the transaction.
1 - Shipping costs can be gathered via USPS.com. Figure 5 oz. to mail a single CD in a normal mailer.
2 - Peter in Toronto can wait for the CD to be mailed until the satish patel would be going to the post office anyways.
3 - Peter can pay by cash or open a paypal account.
4 - Customs forms are a 1-2 minute exercise, not a biggie.
Don't see the purpose in having this aired publicly rather than continuing to dialog. It's a CD, not something to initiate character assassination over. I occasionally have gotten the purchaser on ebay who thinks they own my soul because they bought a $4.99 CD from me, and I really don't appreciate it.

Hello all,

Spectacular bargain. About 12-15 classic albums contained in this one, nice box and book.

more cool stuff left....
Thanks,

Somebody needs to jump on that Billy Harper right now! And Grant Green 'Sunday Morning' is one of his very best, an early 60's quartet with p/b/d.

Maybe I'm losing it but hasn't this one already come out on CD?
Having said that, new liner notes with quotes by Jon Hiseman sounds good !
I think this is the first domestic US CD issue. Collectors Choice reissues a lot of titles in the USA which also come out on other labels in other countries.

Question sent on the Monty Alexander.

yes I agree - as for "Bloomfield was the greatest white blues guitarist ever, " no need for qualifiers - he was a genius, I think, and led a movement that did a lot more than copy what had come before, as a matter of fact, the rockers, to my way of thinking, revived a form that was getting a little bit tired with age and gave it new musical life. As for his walking away from fame, he clearly had drug and other problems- HOWEVER - he also had specific principles and did not want to just go after the fame and money (yes, it helped that he came from a wealthy family). He could play anything, and I have even heard some amazing Merle-Travis like guitar. Kooper told me a few years back in an email that there is a LOT of stuff that Hammond Sr. recorded of Bloomfield that he hopes will come out one day, including amazing acoustic stuff.
I saw him at the Fillmore East circa 1970 go up against BB King, and he was astounding - kind of played BB's stuff right back at him with odd twists and turns, somewhat taunting and teasing. Amazing night -
Bloomfield is a fascinating study. Maybe the first 60's "guitar hero"? "East West" was certainly a breakthrough, and remains a mind-blowing milestone. My understanding (I think from Kooper's liner notes on the US reiussue/remaster) was that the Stills side of Super Session came about because Bloomfield went AWOL after recording the material on the first side. The Bloomfield material seems much stronger to me, even though "Season of the Witch", with Stills, was the cut I heard non-stop in Cincinnati on WEBN back in the day. The great Bloomfield mystery to me has always been what were he/they thinking with It's Not Killing Me, which is awful and makes no sense given his abilities. Any thoughts on that one?

Cedar Walton 'Eastern Rebellion' Vols 1 to 4
Agreed. I was actually going back in to add those when I saw your post. Vol. 1 especially with George Coleman on board.
Yeah - it's still the best of those fine albums. Issued in the US on Muse (although the rest were Timeless only I think).
Actually on Impulse! in the US (as was Blakey's "Album of the Year" and a couple of other titles).
I have Eastern Rebellion on a Muse LP.
You're both right.
Got it. What I have on Impulse! are CD's.

I purchased my first CD burner in 1997, I still have the very first CDR I made and it plays perfectly, in fact I've never had a CDR "go bad" (unless it got badly scratched).
Same here, never have had a failure.

How the Music Industry Can Get Digital Satisfaction If you can't beat them, join them.By L. GORDON CROVITZ
The music industry played one sour note after another as digital technology undermined its traditional business models. But after suing some 35,000 music fans for illegally downloading songs, music honchos decided not to sue the more than seven million others. Instead, the industry has concluded that if it can't beat them, it might as well join them in enjoying the benefits of technology. This marks a milestone in what might be called the Great Unbundling.
Digital technology is a powerful disaggregator, giving consumers the power to pick and choose what we want, how we want it, and when and where we want it. Instead of buying a 14-song CD, people can download one favorite. Instead of owning physical CDs, we own access to digital copies. Instead of having to use a stationary stereo, we can play songs on our iPods, phones or laptops.
Other industries are still coming to terms with the unbundling power of digital technology -- think of video, books and news -- which makes the music industry's story timely. Recorded music for decades was sold as physical products, albums via phonographs, cassettes, then CDs. For young programmers, finding ways to download and share songs digitally (and usually illegally) became an early application of the Web. Napster and similar file-sharing services were shut down in the early 2000s as the music industry fought illegal downloads.
But shifts in how people access music can mean rethinking the entire value proposition. As music-industry critics David Kusek and Gerd Leonhard predicted several years ago, "Access to music will replace ownership of it. We have passed through the Industrial Age to the Information Age, and music will never be the same again." There are now about half as many CD sales in the U.S. as in 2000. A few years ago, record executives in London were shocked when young people refused even free CDs.
The industry should by now understand that the way to get "Back in Black" is not in album CDs, which remain the biggest source of revenue. Instead, the future is sales of digital songs and ring tones, licensing to video games, and trying to get rights to concerts and other revenues associated with the musicians.
Just in the past month, the Recording Industry Association of America abandoned its previous theme song of "Bring Lawyers, Guns and Money" by announcing it would no longer sue downloaders, except in exceptional circumstances. This means kids will no longer be sued for downloading songs for personal use.
Instead, the trade group will work with Internet service providers to identify the worst offenders. The association will track people who grossly infringe copyright and alert the ISPs, which will remind users that downloading music illegally is a violation of service agreements that could lead to the service being cut off. A study found that 70% of people in Britain would stop illegally sharing files if their ISP told them it had detected the violation. ISPs would benefit because a limited number of music downloaders hog bandwidth, and they may also hope this approach could work to limit abuse of online video.
The music industry also reversed its longtime strategy of limiting digital rights. The recording companies recently agreed that Apple's iTunes Store can sell songs without copy protection, which means that buyers can listen to them on devices other than their iPod or iPhone. They also agreed to price points above and below the flat 99 cents that Apple had used. The iTunes Store has redefined convenience for consumers, last year becoming the world's leading music retailer, dislodging Wal-Mart.
Unbundling has made singles -- disaggregated from albums -- the big winner. Last year was the biggest ever in Britain for the sale of singles, combining downloads and CDs. There can even be new bundles: Buyers of Nokia's "Comes with Music" mobile phone will get the right to download unlimited songs to the owner's phone and computers, with the participating music publisher paid a share of the price of the phone.
The music industry is the first disrupted industry to understand that people are willing to pay for what's otherwise free (albeit illegal) if it's convenient, well-packaged and reasonably priced. This is a lesson other parts of the media and entertainment business still fight by making their content available for free in the digital medium while charging for it in other channels.
The embrace of technology didn't happen until the traditional music companies had no option. Other industries should stop wailing that they "Can't Get No Satisfaction" and instead work on their own versions of "The Times, They Are A-Changin.'" Consumers will always want choice. When technology provides it, the best response is to find ways to give customers what they want.

Been buying from them for about 20 years. They are slow. You have to live with that. IIRC, in the winter they only work the store/site on weekends and during the warm seasons they concentrate on real people. Wouldn't want to be without them.
My experiences with them (probably a dozen orders over five or so years) have all been good.

Exactly. I think there's 30-40 minutes of great material MIA on the Sermon/Houseparty RVG's which are on the original CD's. The Mobley's included everything from the relevant sessions on both the original CD's and the RVG's.
