yul Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 I am so thrilled about this happening. A dream come true. And can't help dreaming of the next one. Maybe the 1960 tour wirh Coltrane? Or the 1969 quintet? Or some 70's gigs? Still wondering if Sony is going to release decent set of the 1975 japanese concerts (unedited set of pangae, agharta & dark magus shows...)?? Or a complete Legacy edition of the early 80's recordings...? No sign of Mosaic vinyl version (of bootleg series)? Quote
jazzbo Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Okay, Dark Magus would really be a ringer in that set as it's recorded in New York City! But yeah, I think there are many who would buy a Japanese 1975 box set. It would be a great set, as would a 1960 set with quality transfers from source tapes. There are a lot of gray market releases out from 1960 now. . . but I'd like to think that many of us would buy an official set. Some years ago Bob Belden left Columbia in disgust because of problems with Columbia and the estate and real reissues dried up. But that trend seems reversing and we're seeing some good box sets and Legacy two cd sets, etc. I'm hopeful for the future! My biggest wish would be for a complete box set of the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday Fillmore shows. Quote
tranemonk Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 I have to say this does intrigue me... So for you Miles-philes... Other than the Plugged Nickel set... is this the only other "official" live set from this group? Quote

I have a recording of them at Newport that summer. (I know it's not in Europe but it is the same group.) Quote

Was that too early for Herbie to play any electric keyboards? Quote
JSngry Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Live, yes. I don't think an electric piano was on an actual gig until Chick was in the band (the duffy's gig?). Quote
king ubu Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Yes, only piano on the 1967 tour. As for the rest... London hasn't turned up, from Helsinki there are but a few tracks around, but there's are full (compared to Losin's listings, that is) radio captures from Rotterdam, Berlin and Karlsruhe (which is partly on the DVD). Not sure a Vol. 2 based on these would make that much sense, but hey, I'd get it, too! Quote
jazzbo Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 I doubt we'll see it, but it would be great. They could throw in Newport, and any other '67 appearances possible. Quote
Guy Berger Posted July 25, 2011 Report Posted July 25, 2011 Live, yes. I don't think an electric piano was on an actual gig until Chick was in the band (the duffy's gig?). There is an electric piano on the Boston Jazz Workshop gig from December 1968. I don't remember whether Herbie played the electric piano at any live gigs before Chick replaced him. Guy Quote

Berkeley April 7, 1967 with Al Stinson! There are also Portland May 21, 1966 with Richard Davis and the aforementioned Newport July 2, 1967 gig, and then there's Newport July 4, 1966, too! The two from Newport are VOA broadcasts. Portland is given as AUD on Losin, but sounds more like SBD, Berkeley is a radio broadcast. Fabulous stuff, all of it! Quote
J.A.W. Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Here's "'Round Midnight" from this set, posted by Sony. Edited July 26, 2011 by J.A.W. Quote
medjuck Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 Here's "'Round Midnight" from this set, posted by Sony. Is "Soundcloud" Sony? And what is Soundcloud? They have lost of samples from the set posted. Quote

They have lost of samples from the set posted. Someone assured me that it is a Sony/Legacy site, but now that you ask I don't see their logo anywhere. Maybe someone here knows more about it. Larry, please delete my link if it turns out not to be legit. Edited July 26, 2011 by J.A.W. Quote
.:.impossible Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 http://soundcloud.com/ Lots of musicians share their music here. I didn't know big labels had jumped in though. Quote
Swinging Swede Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 I think it is the poster of the track, "Legacy Recordings", that may be Sony, not the Soundcloud site itself. The Wikipedia article on Soundcloud mentions nothing about a Sony affiliation. Quote
tranemonk Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 Good clip though... Makes me very interested... Quote

The Wikipedia article on Soundcloud mentions nothing about a Sony affiliation. "Legacy" was a Columbia imprint and is now owned by a Sony. I think you're right in that Sony/Legacy posted it and that the site is not affiliated with them. Edited July 28, 2011 by J.A.W. Quote
JETman Posted July 28, 2011 Report Posted July 28, 2011 Price of this has been reduced to $37.50 on Amazon's website. Does that work for everybody? I preordered this along with the Amazon exclusive 5 disc version of Hendrix Winterland which had a price reduction to $40.99. What the heck --- you only live once! Quote
jazzbo Posted July 28, 2011 Report Posted July 28, 2011 There was no doubt that you were going to buy the Miles John, but I'm happy you're getting the Jimi. Quote
