Miles Davis: The Bootleg Series, volume 2

[Pete C]

"newly composed songs in the rock face in water"

I wonder what the real translation is. Rock vein? Any Czech or other Slavic language speakers here?

Maybe I'll write a haiku in which one line is "Rock face in water."

Just found out through an email exchange with Peter Losin that this release has been delayed until early January

[king ubu]

That's because Mr. Wilburn will redo the drum-parts, I've heard.

LOL. Oh man, thats brutal. Well, January is good, more time to save.

Any news on a release date for this set?

[A Lark Ascending]

Think it's been pushed back to early 2013

Second bootleg box postponed (8/16/2012)

Sony has postposed until January 2013 the release date of the second installment in the Miles Davis Bootleg Series, and the reissue of the first eight Miles Davis Columbia LPs in mono will be postponed as well. In addition, the mono LP project may be licensed to the Music on Vinyl label, which has released several of Miles Davis's Columbia recordings on high-quality 180-gram vinyl.

Anyone have any of the Music on Vinyl Miles Davis Columbia reissues? First I've heard of it.

I guess Vince Wilburn Jr *is* overdubbing over Jack DeJohnette Seriously tho, what the hold up is I have no idea. Wilburn Jr. s Seriously tho, what the hold up is I have no idea. Packaging? Rights?

IIRC nearly everyone of the metal spine bo sets arrived later than first announced. I think (hope) that they're just trying to get it right. (Apple does do one ting right: they don't announce a product till it's ready to ship. )

Seems Mr Vilburn will do his new drumparts during holiday season and they're aiming for a late January release!

Oh, yes!

Great price. In the USA I'd worry that the DVD would not be compatible however.

The DVD that came with Vol.1 in Europe was region-free, so I guess this one is too.

[jazzbo]

Intersting. Thanks Hans.

I signed up. I don't speak German. Is there anything I should know about the amazon.de page? I assume that like the Amazon UK page it automatically gets your address and credit card information from the main amazon.com databank.

Yep, it's all interconnected, with the exception of Amazon Japan.

I like the cover!

Thanks Hans!

Amazon US has it at $52.91, Amazon DE at EUR23.00 as Hans noted above. EUR23.00 is about USD$29.00 That's a huge difference.

Thanks for the link, ordered tonight and shipping was only 3 euros. I'm looking forward to this one.

The odds are good that the Amazon US price will come way down before release.

I like the cover!

I like the colors ok, but...that photo is from, when, 1959?

There are some Val Wilmer photos taken from around the same time that would have made really spectacular covers. Are they dated? Yeah, sure, but when you put "1969" right there on the cover, it's not like you're running away from anything.

That cover is like this one in reverse:
