the final 2 boxes, 18 CDs in total, will arrive on Monday 12/18 - completing the project, covering until the year 1950 (actually there's one cut from 1951) -

I don't know if we can make it in time for xmas, but any orders I get this weekend will be shipped out Monday night first class - let me know if you want it, use Paypal (my paypal address is alowe@maine.rr.com) and I will make sure everything is ready and packed to go. I'm happy to do checks and money orders, and am willing to do the honor system if you're really desperate, on your assurance that "the check (or m.o.) is in the mail" -

I can offer each new volume for $45 shipped; both for $85 shipped -

thanks for doing that -

I bookmarked an earlier thread where you laid out the track lists because I wanted to use it as a reference in anticipation of vols. 3 & 4. Having ordered vol. 2 from you and enjoying it so much, I was basically pre-sold on the remaining volumes. I may have to wait a few weeks before I can order them from you but I'm really looking forward to hearing both!

Which thread is that?

What's the track list on these (not that I won't buy them anyway)?

7. Charlie Christian Tea For Two Sept. 21, 1937

This Charlie Christian track is out of sequence. It was recorded on Sept. 21, 1939 (not 1937).

Just nitpicking! Those Devilin' sets are essentials!

ah, leave me alone -

just kidding really - and I guess there are a few from 1951 - one critic complained that I call it 1900-1950 in the book, but that there is coverage from before and after that date. True; but I think of it like Henry Threadgill's groups, where he calls it a sextet and there are 7 (or something like that); l also think of some of the old vocal quartets that had 5 members. This was a hard project, did it myself, writing and mastering for 5 years without assistance (financial or otherwise except a few people who send me dubs of 78s), so I always worried about errors; fortunately not a lot have been found.

HOWEVER - the Charlie Christian comes from a "live" cut, pre-Goodman - so the date may still be wrong, but I'm not sure if it's the same one you re thinking of - I'll have to look at the LP from which I got it -

the offer will stand, at those prices - I was just using some high-pressure salesmanship to get people to order before Christmas -

And it worked!

Hey kids, it's the bitchin'-est mixtape collection of the century from last century! Or in the case of Vol. 1, the past 2 centuries.

sorry, just ran out at the old prices - just kidding, really, should mention, also, that once you have the four volumes you also have the full text for the book.

also want to mention that I checked the Charlie Christian - the Tea for Two on the CD comes from a "live" session recorded in the Midwest in 1937 - great stuff, in the same class as the Minton's material -

The live session is dated September 24, 1939 in the very thorough (and reliable) Charlie Christian discography

Charlie Christian Solography

The session first appeared in the Columbia twofer 'Solo Flight' in 1972. Chris Albertson (remember him?) wrote that it was 'issued for the first time on record, (the tracks) were privately cut on acetate discs in a Minneapolis club by Jerry Newhouse, a disc jockey'. The album gave the recording date as Sept. 21, 1939.

Anyway, great stuff indeed!

for overseas airmail shipping of the two vols shipping is probably $15 - so figure $100 shipped for both -

I stand corrected and embarrassed on that Minnesota Charlie Christian cut - of course, time and music-wise, the Midwest is usually about 2 years behind, anyway -
