sidewinder Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 wow - the 30+ bundle deal compares with zweitausendeins.de at Euro 2.99 each and an even better title list Quote
Stefan Wood Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 I did 35. You bastids! The K2s are worth it alone. Picked up a bunch of smaller stuff, like Birdlanders, JFK Quintet, etc. Quote
sidewinder Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Damnation - I get a nice little pile selected in my basket and notice under FAQs that there's 'No International shipping' ! Quote
Noj Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 I've got $100 worth cued up, itching to pull the trigger. Sure wish I could pay for these with PayPal and not use the plastic... Quote
Noj Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 At $3 a pop I couldn't justify not doing it. I'll have a bunch of emusic cdrs which will no longer be needed. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Damn. There goes my "not buying any more CDs for awhile" resolution. Not sure how I'm going to tell Ann. Save room in the dog house for me. I (delicately) brought up the subject earlier this afternoon, and she made me a "deal": I could buy 30 as long as I don't buy any more CDs until Jan 1, 2007. (she didn't say anything about vinyl, though... ) Quote
Rupertdacat Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Any suggestions on which of the lesser known titles included in this sale would definitely be worth checking out? Thanks, Rupe Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Save room in the dog house for me.

(she didn't say anything about vinyl, though... ) I'm going to run with "yes, I did buy those 50 cds but I wasn't just thinking about myself....I was thinking about you too hon and got you those 3 Creedence cds that were on sale!'" and then see what happens!

Soulstation1 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 that coltrane box set is a mf steal........ buy em all and sell for $100..... Quote

Good luck with that one! (we'll save you a place in the dog house, too. just don't forget to bring the beer!) Quote
Morganized Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Ok.....Just 34 for me and I wish I had pulled the trigger on a couple of more. What a sale! Quote
LJazz Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Ok.....Just 34 for me and I wish I had pulled the trigger on a couple of more. What a sale! Geez. 40 + for me as well as the Coltrane and Evans boxes. As good a time as any to really get my collection going. Now I'll need to take about a year off to catch up on listening. Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 I just ordered 30. Ouch. I called my wife (who balances the household budget) before I hit the "Place order" button and she gave the OK with a caveat: No CDs for 3 months! Double ouch. You guys are killing me. Some great CDs winging their way to me though. Later, Kevin Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 i should be all over those K2's i'll just have to get by with my ray charles set.. Quote
street singer Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Man, I almost wish I hadn't seen this thread today... 55 CD's for me... ...in addition to the Coltrane and Evans sets. I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to get so much music I didn't have for such a ridiculous price. All of the discs I bought, aside from the box sets, are Limited Editions or K2's. A few of the K2's are upgrades, but the vast majority of them I've never had in my collection. I almost didn't pick up the box sets, but I just know that if I hadn't, I would end up regretting it down the road. Here's the list of what I picked up: Cannonball Adderley/Milt Jackson - Things Are Getting Better Gene Ammons - Boss Tenor Chet Baker - Chet Chet Baker - Chet Baker Sings-It Could Happen To You Chet Baker - In New York Chet Baker - Plays the Best of Lerner & Loewe Walter Bishop, Jr. Trio - The Walter Bishop, Jr. Trio Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Caravan Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Ugetsu Jaki Byard - Freedom Together Charlie Byrd - Bossa Nova Pelos Passaros Teddy Charles - New Directions Teddy Charles - Teddy Charles & Prestige Jazz Al Cohn - Broadway John Coltrane - Coltrane John Coltrane - Traneing In Ted Curson - Ted Curson Plays Fire Down Below Miles Davis - Bag's Groove Miles Davis - Collectors' Items Miles Davis All Stars - Walkin' Walt Dickerson - A Sense Of Direction Eric Dolphy - Eric Dolphy at the Five Spot, Vol. 1 Kenny Dorham - Quiet Kenny Kenny Drew - Kenny Drew Trio Bill Evans - At Shelly's Manne-Hole Bill Evans - Everyone Digs Bill Evans Bill Evans Trio - Explorations Red Garland - Red Garland's Piano Red Garland Quintet - All Mornin' Long Benny Golson - Stockholm Sojourn Elmo Hope - Hope Meets Foster Elmo Hope - Hope-full Milt Jackson Quartet - The Milt Jackson Quartet The Jones Boys - The Jones Boys Barney Kessel Quartet - The Artistry of Barney Kessel Charles McPherson - From This Moment On! Modern Jazz Quartet - Concorde Modern Jazz Quartet - Django Thelonious Monk - Misterioso Thelonious Monk - Plays Duke Ellington Thelonious Monk - Thelonious Himself Thelonious Monk Trio - Thelonious Monk Trio Thelonious Monk/John Coltrane - Monk & Coltrane Wes Montgomery - Incredible Jazz Guitar Art Pepper - Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section Art Pepper - Smack Up Freddie Redd Trio - San Francisco Suite Sonny Rollins - Plus 4 Sonny Rollins - Sonny Rollins with the Modern Jazz Quartet Sonny Rollins - The Sound of Sonny Sonny Rollins - Worktime Sonny Rollins Quartet - Tenor Madness Various Artists - The Poll Winners Randy Weston Trio - Get Happy Jimmy Woods - Awakening! Whew! Quote

RDK Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 And don't limit yourself just to OJCs. There are some terrific Specialty Records comps of R&B, Blues, and Jump Blues that are to die for! Quote
