Never thought I would see it in my lifetime

[Hot Ptah]

Has anyone heard the new Complete Horo Records CD box set? It's pricey, but if the sound quality is good I may have to spring for it. I hope that the individual albums are issued separately. However, considering how long we have waited for this, and the tortured path it took to get this reissued (as described ad naseum in the liner booklet), I think that it might be safest to just spring for the entire box now.

I am especially interested in the previously unreleased bonus tracks--in particular, the new tracks from the three Sun Ra album sessions (Unity, New Steps, Other Voices Other Blues), and the new tracks from the Lester Bowie and Sam Rivers albums.

It looks nice sitting on my shelf next to the Complete Boris Rose and Bill Savory Collection.

[Spontooneous]

Not complete, of course. They left out the two bonus tracks from the previous CD reissue of George Adams "Jazz a Confronto."

Hadn't realized it was a Keepnews production.

Does it include the recorded but unissued Sun Ra tribute to Jobim?

[JSngry]

Somebody just find Bird with Earl Hines, please.

[TedR]

Has it been awarded anything by Guiness World Records Ltd?

Hadn't realized it was a Keepnews production.

... with liner notes by Stanley Crouch.

[BFrank]

Isn't there a newly discovered Buddy Bolden session in there, too?

Couldn't we just bring up the April's fool threads from previous years?
