Actually Newberry has pretty good deals on several of the old Montreux 77 cds, including the Eldridge for $1.99. Just pop over to Amazon and type in Montreux 77. They all come up.

Use the Amazon.com advanced search LABEL = OJC and sort by price - low to high. You'll find lots more @ $1.99

Sorry.

Damn you, Matt! :lol: I now have 5 titles on order:

Miles Davis - Blue Moods

Red Garland - Red Alert

Les Spann - Gemini

Barry Harris - Luminescence

Lighthouse All-Stars - Lighthouse At Laguna

I hate this place!

Strange - I got that one in December for $8 shipping included (great album!), but then it was gone at that price and showed only the outrageously priced ones. Then the $8 was back a month ago, and now it's gone again. Maybe $111 is a typo?

Easy Does It is excellent. Highly recommended if you dig Bobby Timmons.

Not a typo, likely an algorithm failure. Notice that the other seller in the marketplace is offering the same title for 112.94. Subtract 1% from that price and you end up with...exactly the price Newbury is asking. So it looks like for a lot of titles they set their system to take 1% off the lowest seller's price, no matter what it is.

...then we have The_Music_Store competing with itself on this Lem Winchester one! :D

Picked up a few discs that I wanted to share here. All latin discs, all excellent music!

The Festival in Havana in particular is a great disc of pre Castro Cuban music.

If you like Cal Tjader and Mongo Santamaria, then the Benny Vallarde disc is recommended, as it is west coast latin jazz.

I would definitely recommend that. Great variety, any of the discs at random is a good listen. Also a fine alternative to the masssive Mingus box.

I will second this comment.

Cool set especially at a bargain price. But I wouldn't want to be without the Mingus Debut box! (And though there's some overlap, there was more to Debut than Mingus).

No Jim, it's still there at 1.99. I'm sorry I've never linked but if you go to amazon, select the music category, search "sal nistico" and the Heavyweights/comin on up cd is first on the list.

If only amazon marketplace wouldn't ask such insane amounts of $$ for shipping!

Why can't they make the costs for the second, third etc. discs that are part of the SAME order just 1.5$ more, instead of the full effing amount again? It's ridiculous to order five discs for less than 10$ but the total order sum is somewhere around 50$!
