  1. Ok, thing is, this is ONE file, split up automatically into three each. So you can't unpack the second or third, usually, but you have to grab ALL THREE files, then open the first, hit extract, and ALL the tracks from all three files will unpack! It worked perfectly well for me, with these same links/files - I don't think anything could have happened to these files after you'd put them up to RS, Berigan! Duh! I'm an idiot. Thanks, Ubu Yep, all three parts downloaded and unpacked together, no problem. BTW, track 20 still seems to have its artist tag. Not that it's helped. Hm, I only noticed that on #1 of disc two, but then I quickly overwrote all the tags, not to spoil any fun... won't be that useful anyway, having some info, when most of what Berigan shares here will be new to most of us...
  2. As I reported elsewhere, I was lucky and found the Eugen Cicero box in a used music store for less than the prize of one nice-price CD! Just finished playing the first disc, which contains the Rokoko and Chopin albums, both with Charly Antolini drumming very tastefully (he was who spotted Ciceu, as was his real name, first). Quite a surprise, how good this is! I didn't expect much and would have never bought it for full prize... which would have been a mistake, I assume. The music is earthy as often as it's airy and light - as Berendt in one of his liners points out, Cicero took clues regarding block chord style from Milt Buckner and Oscar Dennard, rather than from George Shearing. If the remaining two CDs are just as good, this will be a highly enjoyable set!
  3. and ten minutes later:
  4. our backyard, thirty minutes ago:
  5. I wasn't even aware he's still around, but Pedro Iturralde did two albums, combined onto a fine EMI Spain CD in the 90s, likely OOP by now, but worth looking for! (EMI Spain also released his 70s quartet album with Hampton Hawes, just in case...)
  6. That can happen for whatever reason, losing connection, RS having a server down for an hour while you're in the midst of downloading - just delete the partial file and try again later!

  8. Sure, just send me a PM with your Address! Maybe i have misread him but according to Dan, there is a way to take the files into the computer and put them ourselves into a CD. You have gone to all this trouble to take the time to participate , choosing the music and all the techno stuff that comes with it and i say thank you. So i'll try to do the rest without giving you more work and avoid having to spend money on shipping fees. all you have to do is: open the first file (with winrar - free download on www.rarlab.com, the trial version will remain fully working except for a pop-up that will appear after a few weeks), hit the "extract" button, choose the location, and in that folder you'll find the single tracks as WMA-files. You should be able to burn them, or put them onto an MP3 playing device, or in the worst case you're at least able to play them on the computer if you can't figure out the rest...
  9. Woody Herman Select, discs 2 & 3 still waiting for the package that shall bring me the Hodges and the Prima/Manone... cross your fingers!
  10. how about that guy, Allen Lowe?
  11. hm, no wait... the Burrell - the one I'd like to find is the Village Vanguard trio thing (the one that's now reissued again but minus all the bonus material) - wasn't that one also part of this series?
  12. Thanks, I almost thought so... I'd love to find the Burrell! How are the Basie and Donaldsons?
  13. Chessmates (GRP) George Russell: Jazz in the Space Age (Decca) Kenny Dorham & the Jazz Prophets James Moody: Moody's Mood for Love (Argo) Lou Donaldson: Fried Buzzard (Argo) Count Basie - Straight Ahead Max Roach - Max! (Argo) Kenny Burrell - Ode to 52nd Street Al Cohn & Zoot Sims - Al And Zoot Quincy Jones - Go West, Man! Introducing Roland Kirk what else?
  14. hm, the James Moody (Overbrook) is complete, the Zoot Sims and Art Farmers had two tunes from the second album missing, what other releases were done in that series?
  15. reading Ludwik Fleck's sociological (actually "wissenssoziologisch") books: plus another one collecting some short essays. funny discussion above... that book also frightened the shit out of me when I was a kid... and my little sister was a thumb-sucker... here's the cover for the german edition (with original name, too...)
  16. There was a great thread on the BNBB about the various Chess series (there are also those "almost twofers" where Keepnews omitted two tracks off the second album included, usually). If someone could post that thread, that would be way cool, I don't have any saved old threads, alas.
  17. Last night: disc 1 of the JSP Lang/Venuti box - not all too bad, but I do think these 4CDs will do it for me and I'll do my best not to regret having missed out on the Mosaic. I wonder, who did the remastering for the JSP? Some names are always mentioned (Kendall etc.) but nothing is stated here.
  18. Guess you must have missed the fine print that said '$22 per cd additional shipping charge to Germany, Luxembourg & France' phew, I'm lucky then!
  19. sure, do a google search, certainly some photos that show up are familiar! such as this here: thanks for all that scanning work, will have to save some of these (they don't display at work, where much of my org reading these days is done...)

    Art Pepper

    here's a better discographical entry from the Warne Marsh discography: So the quintet part of this date was never originally issued at all? Or rather, the 70s Contemporary album was the first issue of it?
  21. What I thought seing the thread title... too much hardbop around anyway
  22. Sent you a PM regarding some 32 jazz releases!
