Charlie Parker - Complete Verve Master Takes

[J.A.W.]

For those who don't want or can't afford the complete 10CD Verve box, this 3CD-set might be a good alternative. Street date is October 21, and it can be pre-ordered now from CDUniverse for $34.99.

I don't know if CDUniverse has an incorrect or incomplete track listing, but it doesn't look "complete" to me.

Weren't "No Noise ", "Mango Mangue", "Okiedoke" from 1949 on Verve/Clef/?

"Star Eyes" and "Blues" from an early 1950 session are on it, but no "I'm in the Mood for Love" from the same date?

It has "Mowawk", "My Melancholy Baby", "Leap Frog", and "Relaxing with Lee" from June 6, 1950, but not "Bloomdido" or "An Oscar for Treadwell"?
