CONGRATS on #2.

Still can't take paypal from a credit card, right?

If so I won't be able to order for quite a while, but I think you'll have copies.

[AllenLowe]

I'll look into it - will probably have to call paypal -

[AllenLowe]

special offer - if you purchased the first volume from me, I'll sell you this one for $42 shipped - or buy both for $90 shipped

[ghost of miles]

Boy, the speed on this sure beats Sony's Miles series!

[kh1958]

What is contained in these sets? Jazz? Blues? Early Country? Popular music of the 1920s? Dance band music? All of the above?

[AllenLowe]

well, it's a jazz history, but it contains related disciplines - like Western Swing, country ragtime - I will try to post a track list tonight -

[ghost of miles]

Actually, Allen has confided to me that it is an 18-CD set of "laughing records."

I'm biting on the $90 offer. Too good to pass up.

[jazzbo]

Yes that's a fantastic deal!

And the first set is so marvelous, this second one has a tough act to follow, and yet I know it will follow it and stand the comparison.

[jazzbo]

Hopefully Allen will see this before he posts his own version. . . .

SOME GREAT MUSIC HERE!

[Harold_Z]

YOU BET !

I'm IN !

I'll be emailing you today Allen.

[AllenLowe]

thanks Jazzbo - Jazzbo - from what I hear I may be able to take credit cards - if you're still interested, try to make the payment through paypal - I'm told others have done this successfully -

[jazzbo]

Will try. Thanks. I've bought before so I'll go with the discounted price.

[Stefan Wood]

I have mentioned in the past that I don't listen to a lot of pre WW2 jazz, but I bought the first box and LOVED it! The music is carefully selected and though it is 9 cds, it flows! I'm getting the next set ASAP!

[Clunky]

Me too for both, I've a smattering of this stuff already but will be really interested reading the book and hearing the sounds.

[Adam]

I've been wanting to hear Carson Robison and his Kansas City Jackrabbits for a while.

I bought the first one from you, so I'm in for the discount as well. yee haw! Pay Pal here I come.

[AllenLowe]

the only person left who has NOT ordered is Son Of Weizen...hmm....was it something I said? Hey, Lionel Hampton is on one of the CDs, somewhere -

[mikeweil]

How much is the price incl. shipping to Europe for one or both sets?

Edited June 20, 2006 by mikeweil

[AllenLowe]

I would guess $8 shipping for one, $12 for both - to Western Europe -

[mikeweil]

Thanks - as soon as my PayPal account has reached the proper figures, I'll be on it!

[Alexander]

I'm planning on getting this as soon as I have sufficient funds. I loved the first volume and am very much looking forward to the second. I'm on board for the discount as well! I'll PM when I have the money in my Paypal account...

[vajerzy]

Can someone explain more about these set to the uninformed (like me)?

I like pre WWII jazz-

[Harold_Z]

Can someone explain more about these set to the uninformed (like me)?

I like pre WWII jazz-

My take on it would be that there is a lot of early and pre-jazz here that not only is very enjoyable while also being informative, but that also much of this is off the beaten path. You are flat out not going to encounter the vast majority of material here anyplace else. So while there is King Oliver and The ODJB, etc, there are also bands you have not heard (or heard of perhaps) that also shed much light on what happened in the early development of Jazz.

[jazzbo]

Well summarized Harold! And the sound is very good indeed, set to please Lil Red Riding Hood because it's "just right."

AND you get portions of that book, just about a quarter of the book in each set! What's it called again? "Beelzlebub's Boogie?" "Them Satanic Melodies?" Something like that.

[AllenLowe]

the second box got here today - orders will ship tomorrow - I promise -
