BFrank Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Mine also says shipping. I wonder what that means in terms of it getting to me. I selected 2-day shipping, but with the holiday shipping, I wonder if I will get it before the end of the week I did the 2-day, too. We'll see what happens ...

tranemonk Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Ditto... Why do I feel like this is like the line ..."The check is in the mail..." ??? Mine says Shipped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Dye Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 My card was charged today. 39.19 plus 7.99 for shipping. Expedited with tracking. No email or tracking number yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 just got my email with tracking #. It says 2nd day AIR-I thought it was ground!! So my ETA is Wednesday, not Thursday as I had been expecting. Now if I can just convince my wife and kids that this is Christmas music!

jazzbo Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Mine is scheduled to arrive Friday! Here's hoping! So glad to get it at this price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 My old friend, the leader of the jazz department at the Frankfurt Saturn-Hansa store, told me yesterday he has a release date for early February (!) and will make a price below the € 70.00 mark.

Eric Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 mine says shipped yesterday (Monday) with Priority Mail, so I am guessing it gets here this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dova Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Well: I just went to Border's and picked mine up using a 30% off coupon that expired yesterday. Also plopped down to big gift cards from my October birthday and paid a whopping $22.82 for the Cellar Door Box. Would like to take the rest of the day off and start listening but will have to wait. Can't wait to get everyones reaction to this long delayed and highly anticipated set. Dova Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul Stream Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Yeah, just went by Border's and they had it...there in the flesh so to speak. But at 102 bucks retail, I didn't pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 To my surprise, mine arrived in the mail today from CD Universe, one day after it shipped. Fantastic! Can't wait to crack it open tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) CD Universe lists this as their top seller (today). Interesting. Monk/Coltrane is still no. 3 over at Amazon. That is damn impressive. I would guess there are decent marketing $$$ behind this, but still. I think it showed up at either Pitchfork or Pop Matters as one of their top 2005 records. Hell, Parker/Gillespie is no. 216 at Amazon. Not too shabby. I sincerely hope the folks that buy these (or receive them as gifts) enjoy them. Boy, if you consider yourself an open-minded music lover, I would think these might have a shot. I turned a friend on to Live-Evil a few years ago. He is a Parliament/Funkadelic fan and so L-E was a natural step forward. Edited December 21, 2005 by Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 So, is this thing copy-protected? Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregK Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 not metal here. so where is this sticker they had to put on back in october? I don't see it anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 wait, now I see it. It's on the last page of the booklet, where the credits are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Didn't Chris Albertson write back in 1970 that there were reels and reels of tapes from the Cellar Door? Then why does it say on the back of this box set that these tapes were newly discovered? Where were they in the meantime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) anybody have a review of it yet? down beat published one in its October issue and gave it *****. I received the January '06 issue this morning, and on page 8 they apologize if anybody went shopping and was disappointed - they had a September release date. "Unfortunately, the merger between the two major records labels Sony and BMG led to manufacturing delays of the set" is their explanation. They conclude by saying it will hit the stores by December 27 ..... Edited December 21, 2005 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 just got mine today... I still won't believe this is real until I've played ALL 6 CD;s... Who the hell knows what could be in there... Could be the greatest hits of Britney Spears.... !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
