SMB1968 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 Kinda/sorta a box set of promo copies on the cheap from Jazz Loft right now. Here's the link to the outside box, they also have an inside one. http://www.jazzloft.com/p-56819-50-cd-grab-bag-avant-garde-jazz.aspx Quote
GA Russell Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Posted October 9, 2013 Thanks SMB! For $50, this might make a great Christmas present. http://www.jazzloft.com/p-56820-50-cd-grab-bag-straight-ahead.aspx Quote

colinmce Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) May already be too late (always is), but there's a $54.99 Don Pullen Select at DG. This is a seriously good box set. http://www.dustygroove.com/item/678287 There's also a Dexter Gordon at the same price. Thanks SMB! For $50, this might make a great Christmas present. http://www.jazzloft.com/p-56820-50-cd-grab-bag-straight-ahead.aspx I know someone from JazzLoft posts here from time to time. I am seriously considering this, but am wondering if the promos are CDs only, or if there's art. Makes or breaks the deal for me. Edited October 11, 2013 by colinmce Quote
jazzbo Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 These days a lot of promos include art, I bet the majority of these are. Selling promos. . . so 'nineties. Quote

It has recordings from 1964 and 1972, so apparently it is not a PD release. Spectrum is a UK budget label in the Universal family. They have put out a lot of interesting Motown-related collections, as well as some interesting collections by some of the UK Beat groups who are obscure Stateside (for instance, the Merseybeats, who hit in the UK with the sublime "I Think of You"). No frills, no great shakes sound-wise, but low prices and legit. Quote

BeBop Posted October 17, 2013 Report Posted October 17, 2013 "Box Set Sale" at DeepDiscount.com. I don't shop or know any prices, though deepdiscount has done alright by me in the past, when I was buying. So I'll post the link. It could suck. But y'all will be better judges: Link Quote

I don't shop or know any prices, though deepdiscount has done alright by me in the past, when I was buying. So I'll post the link. It could suck. But y'all will be better judges: Link They were real competitive for a few years, then got much more expensive. I gave them a fair amount of business for awhile, as the free shipping was a good thing, but haven't even looked at them for a few years. These sale prices look to me to be OK, but not special. Quote

felser Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Huge price drop on the BobDylan Complete Album Collection pre-order price on Amazon. $179.98 for 47 CD's, including a bunch of first time remasters. Down from $254.98. I jumped on it. Quote

Jay Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Thanks for the tip. Been watching on Euro sites and this is much better. Now, if only the Herbie would come down as much. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 I thought some of that Dylan stuff was owned by Sony, some by Universal. How come it's all in one box? MG Quote
mjzee Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Nothing of Dylan's is owned by Universal, AFAIK. Quote
felser Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Columbia acquired the rights to 'Planet Waves' and 'Before The Flood' when Dylan resigned with Columbia in '74-'75. Everything else in his career has been recorded for Columbia/Sony. Quote
colinmce Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 K, thanks. It'd definitely just be cheaper for me to get the 10 or so 80s/90s discs I never got around to. I always told myself I would! Never too late! Quote
