Thanks! BMG's shipping charges really kill you on box sets, and unless you run across one of these free shipping deals, you can usually do better at Amazon.

Don't you just love it? Nat King Cole's "Greatest Country Songs" is now available as a "new jazz release!"

Glad to see the Turrentine and Griffin release now available. I nearly purchased both the other day while in Barnes and Noble.

[Big Al]

It looks like all of the recent Conns will be carried by BMG, except the Frank Foster.

[Tom 1960]

For those interested, the Donaldson 'Lush Life' release is once again available.

[Aggie87]

Michael Camilo - Spirit of the Moment

Gypsy Kings - Pasajero

Ibrahim Ferrer - Mi Sueno

Porcupine Tree - Fear of a Blank Planet

[Aggie87]

Pretty dry well right now...

Enrico Rava - Tati

Joshua Redman Trio - Back East (showing up on the BMG page, not yourmusic yet)

Radiohead - Airbag/How am I driving? ep

A bunch of Elvis Costello remasters (how many times has his catalog been remastered??)

[GA Russell]

I'm going to add Rava's Tati to my queue unless someone recommends against it.

Anybody have an opinion on that one?

[GA Russell]

Running low: Willie Nelson - The Great American Songbook

[Tjazz]

A bunch of Elvis Costello remasters (how many times has his catalog been remastered??)

12 early titles re-issued on Hip-o.

[Sundog]

I'm going to add Rava's Tati to my queue unless someone recommends against it.

Anybody have an opinion on that one?

Mostly quiet, sparse, romantic, and whimsical in nature with a few "jagged" pieces throw in for a change of pace. Reminiscent of Miles and Bill Evans without being too derivative. I enjoy it.

[Big Al]

A bunch of Elvis Costello remasters (how many times has his catalog been remastered??)

Third time around for now; soon will be seeing the 2-CD deluxe editions from Hip-O. That would make it four times.

Third time around for now; soon will be seeing the 2-CD deluxe editions from Hip-O. That would make it four times.

But the Hip-O deluxe versions (and I don't think they have been announced for every title; just the debut so far) won't be another remastering. They will be the same masters as the Hip-O singles, with just an extra disc added

[Aggie87]

Stefano Bollani - Piano Solo

Enrico Rava - The Words and the Days

Til Bronner - Oceana (is this guy worth checking out? don't think I know anything about him)

Flora Purim - Flora's Song

[GA Russell]

Stefano Bollani - Piano Solo

Enrico Rava - The Words and the Days

Thanks Sundog. I added Tati to my queue.

But now Aggie says that another Rava is available. Does anyone have an opinion on The Word and the Days?

I've never heard Rava, and I'll pick up one of these two soon, but not both I don't imagine.

I highly recommend Bollani's Piano Solo. I don't listen to it a great deal, but I like it a lot whenever I do. I find that's often the case with my ECMs.

[Aggie87]

Abbey Lincoln - Abbey Sings Abbey

Art Sandoval - Rumba Palace

<sigh>

[Aggie87]

Bill Charlap - Live at the Village Vanguard

The Robert Plant remasters

The new Genesis remasters (these are the CD/DVD sets, but are going for $6.99)

Allison Krauss - A Hundred Miles or More

[GregK]

The new Genesis remasters (these are the CD/DVD sets, but are going for $6.99)

These aren't the SACDs, are they?

I wish. These are the US versions (CD/DVD).

There are a number of things in my queue that I would like to have, but nothing has me on pins and needles waiting for it.

I guess the last ones that I really wanted right now were Donald Fagen's Morph the Cat and Miles' Cellar Door box. And in both cases I can't say they were better than what I normally get. Of course, I haven't heard all of the Miles yet, so I shouldn't judge prematurely.

I need to dig that out again. That was one of my favorite releases last year; probably my favorite Donald Fagen work, as I like it better than anything he did with the Dan. (Didn't say it was better; I just like it more!)
