  1. PM sent on two titles.
  2. Buy 1 full price, get unlimited @ $1.99, code SE06BG4 until 9/17. This isn't a great deal, since you've got to buy about 12 CDs to get close to yourmusic.com prices. Posting just in case anyone (with big money left after the Concord sale?) cares.
  3. I got a CP'd Basra really cheaply through eBay, cheap enough (even including postage from the UK) that I was willing to put up with the CP.
  4. New Piano Expressions also includes some solo tracks, which the tray card says aren't included in the Debut box. The solo stuff is excellent, particularly if you like "classically-influenced" playing.
  5. I've been enjoying the heck out of the two Don Ewell releases (Free and Easy and Music to Listen to Don Ewell By).
  6. I live in the Catskills, and never even try such chain stores. But Rhino Records in New Paltz (maybe there's a branch in Poughkeepsie, but I've never been), seems to be run by somewhat of a jazz fan, and occasionally stocks newish RVGs. Once in a while, interesting used discs show up, though their pricing can be off (eg, they tend to charge the "full used price" for old OJCs, even if newer K2s and/or RVGs have been released). But the flip side is the occasional OOP find (eg I got Ike Quebec's "Easy Living" there). They also have a lot of good titles on vinyl, but I can't speak for the prices, not being an LP collector. Not sure if it'd be worth the drive for you, but worth a stop if you happen to be in NP.
  7. Have you heard the new Barry Harris disc in this series? I haven't, but am considering it as well as "Hank and Frank."
  8. I voted for The Shack here, but The Magnificent Thad Jones is also my favorite.
  9. The discs listed by Aggie87 have surfaced at yourmusic.com, though I can't vouch for every title. "Boston Blow-Up" is now next in my queue. Since I joined yourmusic.com, my BMG account has become inactive. Only the BMG $1.99 clearance CDs are cheap enough.
  10. ...who's Aric? I dunno, either. But if it's who I think, the "ignore list" has been working for me.
  11. Second the McPherson and Bishop, Jr. Also have been digging: Hope Full w. Elmo, Bertha Hope New Piano Expressions, John Dennis. My second order should arrive tomorrow!
  12. "Easy Living" seems to be the IQ currently in most need of re-release. Very nice album, despite being rather a strange mix of two sessions.
  13. No offense...I didn't even notice the typo, and assumed "previous".
  14. I don't think that's so unusual. My first order (forget the date; details are many, many pages back on this thread) didn't ship until a whole bunch of later orders were shipped (and many of those even arrived at their destination before I got my shipping confirm!). I do get the impression that Concord's order-filling process has become more orderly, though.
  15. My order #6219, placed very late 7/28, just shipped. I had quite a few non-fills: Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 RITB-9464-2 CANCELED: Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Ugetsu $2.98 Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 NJCD-8260-2 CANCELED: Eric Dolphy - Eric Dolphy at the Five Spot, Vol. 1 $2.98 Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 PRCD-8236-2 CANCELED: Eric Dolphy - Outward Bound $2.98 Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 RCD-9351-2 CANCELED: Bill Evans Trio - Explorations $2.98 Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 RCD-1133-2 CANCELED: Thelonious Monk - Misterioso $2.98 Ordered: 1 Shipped: 0 RCD-201-2 CANCELED: Thelonious Monk - Plays Duke Ellington $2.98
  16. I think Taylor Eigsti's a prodigy of sorts, and has released at least a couple of prior albums. I saw/heard him live about a year ago. Definitely "real jazz", had a lot of technique, but didn't swing very much or consistently IMO.
  17. Got the (7/12) order one day late. This isn't too unusual, as I'm in a rural area and the Fedex guy doesn't seem to like the back roads. Fortunately, since the package was big, he came to the house rather than leaving it at a friendly shop in town. Wow. I'm going to be quiet for a while. At least until the second order arrives...
  18. I'm on the East Coast. For six days, "departed Sacramento" was the last entry. Only today (expected delivery date) did it change to "on truck for shipment". Unfortunately, it now shows a "Delivery Exception (customer not available or business closed)", neither of which was true.
  19. Ditto (another second order customer). The AMG review was lukewarm at best, but I decided to disregard it.
  20. Johnny Griffin "A Blowing Session" A bunch of recent RVGs have turned up in the "New Arrivals" section, eg Silver, Blakey, Mobley, Morgan, Hill (more than one of each). My queue just got longer.
  21. I ordered the evening of July 12 (close to midnight Eastern time). No shipment confirmation yet. Will phone tomorrow. I suspect you will hear something tomorrow anyway. I received my shipping confirm this afternoon for an order placed at about 9:30 p.m. on July 12. They seem to be getting there -- albeit slowly. Finally! Got the shipping confirm today, as you predicted. All 32 items were shipped. [Yes, I now know that 34 would've given me free shipping, but I didn't know at the time. And Concord didn't answer my "may I augment the order?" e-mail. ]
  22. I ordered the evening of July 12 (close to midnight Eastern time). No shipment confirmation yet. Will phone tomorrow.
  23. True. But in light of the apparently overwhelming response to this sale, I wouldn't be surprised if the next sale went out at somewhat higher price points...
  24. Carmell Jones Select. This is the first Mosaic I've bought. Love it. I see how these could become habit-forming.
  25. I would have been interested in the Jazztet Mosaic, but blew the next couple of months' CD budget on the Concord Blow-Out Sale.
