8/22 Satchmo Columbia complete hot fives/sevens

[funkogre]

I wonder if this new August 22nd reissue of this box has the same packaging as the one put out in 2000. Has anyone heard about this?

Here's the 8/22 one:

The tracks look the same, I think. Looks like a good time to pick this up for the price.

No, Phil Schaap's "pause tracks" are missing on the new set

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

Bout time I invested in a proper collection of this stuff. And the price looks OK.

Yup, the original performances have been faithfully recreated in stereo by Japanese robots.

Not the complete set but... we have Robert Parker.

There are quite a few vintage jazz collectors who really appreciate his efforts to restorate old 78s and make them into digital stereo.
