mikeweil Posted May 18, 2015 Report Posted May 18, 2015 The Tanglewood performance on that one is really nice, if you don't already have it. No I don't - thanks for the hint. I'll go for it. Quote
GA Russell Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Posted May 18, 2015 Thanks for that tip, Michael! Unfortunately, I don't see anything that appeals to me, but I note that that is a huge price drop for the Sergio Mendes. Quote
HutchFan Posted May 18, 2015 Report Posted May 18, 2015 I see amazon has it for a comparable price. Was it always that cheap? Are live parts available elsewhere? I'm not a Miles completist, so are they indispensable? IMHO, the extra material on discs 3 & 4 are significantly less interesting than the original Bitches Brew release. So, If you're not a Miles completeist and you already own the 2-disc version of Bitches Brew, I'd say that you're fine. As ever, YMMV. Quote
sidewinder Posted May 20, 2015 Report Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) The Bill Evans Complete Verve is showing at around £18 ( ) right now on Amazon UK but they seem to be 'temporarily out of stock'. Edited May 20, 2015 by sidewinder Quote

ghost of miles Posted May 21, 2015 Report Posted May 21, 2015 Thanks for the heads-up on the Import CDs sale--picked up the George Lewis, Oliver Lake, WSQ, and Paul Motian boxes. Tried to go for the Abrams as well, and it's on backorder... will Import CDs automatically ship it and charge my card once it's back in stock? Quote
Van Basten II Posted May 21, 2015 Report Posted May 21, 2015 If you bought it via Amazon, it's usually how it works. Quote

felser Posted July 3, 2015 Report Posted July 3, 2015 Avoid that Hollies set. Â EMI has done a much better job compiling the same material. Â Anyone know why a lot of material is being reissued on both EMI and WEA? Â Hollies, UFO, stuff like that. Â How can they both have rights to it? Quote
