  1. Where can this version of "Round Midnight" be found?
  2. Did a little research to answer my own question and here's what I came up with... 'For All Time'
  3. Anyone have any info regarding the new Brubeck box coming out next month? Here's what Columbia/Legacy have to say about it: More than any other improvising artist during the past 45 years,the pianist / composer/ bandleader Dave Brubeck (b. 1920) has expanded the rhythmic horizons for the general public, essaying with ever-increasing assurance time signatures like 5/4, 7/4 and even 13/4 while creating a body of work that is notable for its consistent levels of melodic content and harmonic invention. Recorded between 1959 and 1965, this five-disc set captures the Brubeck quartet featuring the floating alto saxophone of Paul Desmond (composer of the million-selling "Take Five"), at the peak of their powers. In addition to such Brubeck signatures as "It's a Raggy Waltz," "Blue Rondo a la Turk," "Unsquare Dance" and, course, "Take Five," FOR ALL TIME's repertoire also presents an improvisation from one of Dave's liturgical pieces, a variation of the folk song "Frankie and Johnny," and Brubeck's work for quartet and 45-piece orchestra, "Elementals." It doesn't give a track listing for this set. Judging by the title, one would assume that this box will include all of his 'Time' albums. Can anyone confirm this?
  4. Don't forget to factor in the "Music Points" you get if you were to purchase this from BMG. Each point is worth $1. They add up after a while...
  5. Just a heads up to anyone who may not have picked this one up yet - it's still available from CyberMusicSurplus and the price has been cut even more. I just ordered it tonight for $6.80 (including shipping)!
  6. This one's gone. I just snagged it. Thanks jazzshrink!
  7. I feel sorry for the firefighters if, god forbid, that place ever catches fire...
  8. Thanks for the replies, guys. I guess we can just add this to the "What could have been..." list. Sigh. -_-
  9. Was listening to Dolphy's rendition of Monk's "Epistrophy" on the 'Last Date' album and am now wondering... Did these two ever play together? Record together? If so, I'm not aware of anything. It would be fascinating to hear, that's for sure... Anyone know?
  10. I'm in agreement with Lon on this one. It's hard for me to get into this one due to Hartman's vocals. I just don't dig that vocal style too much, in general, really... Coltrane plays beautifully, however.
  11. I know I'm not the only one who's been waiting for this... NORTHERN EXPOSURE IS FINALLY COMING TO DVD!!! Just got an email from Amazon stating that the first season will be released in May. Here's a link with more info... Northern Exposure DVD on Amazon May just can't come soon enough. I've been waiting for this for years!
  12. What?! I've never been able to order box sets w/ vouchers. How were you able to do this?
  13. Thanks couw!
  14. Who's the uncredited flute player on "Hasaan's Dream"?
  15. I don't believe CDUniverse offer free shipping, do they? Not usually, anyway... I think their shipping charges are based on the number of discs ordered, ranging from $2.99-$6.99.
  16. I agree with you completely on the price of these things. However, if you can get them used for a good price, that's a different story. I own a few JRVGs/TOCJs but have never paid full price for them. The most I've ever paid has been $15.
  17. The following are now available for pre-order for $8.39 through CDUniverse: Cecil Taylor - Conquistador Stanley Turrentine - Never Let Me Go Sonny Rollins - Newk's Time Jimmy Smith - Prayer Meetin' Jimmy Smith - Rockin' the Boat Horace Silver - The Cape Verdean Blues As if you all needed something else to purchase next month... Here's the link: March 23 RVGs
  18. So THAT'S why I received 3 PMs from you! Uh...from me?! Oops!
  19. I'm getting errors when sending PMs as well... Seems that they are going through, though.
  20. I can sign you up, if interested. Tried sending a PM but received a 'Mail Failed' message. Let me know! got the PM but my reply was errored as well. i might be interested in taking the plunge so let me know how to include you or visa versa. thanks. Sent you an email.
  21. Columbia House currently have both of these: Plugged Nickel: $62.98 (plus s/h) Silent Way: $29.98 (plus s/h)
  22. I've got a few by David Sanchez that I enjoy... Don't listen to them very often, but when I do, I get into 'em.
  23. I can sign you up, if interested. Tried sending a PM but received a 'Mail Failed' message. Let me know!
  24. Thanks for the input everyone. Picked up a copy of this one through Half.com over the weekend for about $7. Looking forward to it!
  25. According to True Blue, this one's on its way out: Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - 'Paris Jam Session' Anyone have an opinion of this one?
