Yes - it's taken me decades to get this and the second Emanon set but my CBBB collection is now complete. 🙂

Bought it back then, didn't play it for quite some time so unsure which parts of the box remained exclusive (following the CBBB releases on Rearward) ....

Quite a bit of the first box still is - especially those suites. Less so the second box but it does include the 'Open Door' album which I have on Muse vinyl and it is good to have it on CD. I like the CD sound on set 1 - nice and clear, not compressed. I'm assuming that set 2 will be similar.

There's also nice booklet notes in both sets which keep the likes of me happy. Not sure about the metallic box cover in set 1 though - it must have been done by the metal/rust fetishist who did the Bill Evans Verve monstrosity.🤡

Bill Charlap Trio “Somewhere: The Songs of Leonard Bernstein” Blue Note cd

 

Been a long time since I’ve gone through my Charlap cds. They don’t disappoint!

Andrew Hill “Compulsion” Blue Note/HDTT cdr

[jazzbo]

This album has fascinated me a few decades. This High Definition Tape Transfer cdr is the best sounding version I have heard.

Powell is just weaving stories to me on this one. And with Michelin and Clarke supporting him he can just go where he pleases.

The Monk numbers make me feel as if he is really playing these to a friend. . . far away.

Bud Powell “A Portrait of Thelonious” Columbia/HDTT cdr

[rostasi]

[jazzbo]

Stan Getz “Sweet Rain” Verve Originals cd

This time through I’m focusing on the always interesting drumming by Grady Tate. Grady Tate–what a name.

[Rabshakeh]

Edward Vesala - Ode to the Death of Jazz

[jazzbo]

Grant Green “Feelin’ the Spirit”

I sure have a number of copies of this Green session. . . it is a favorite. This time I’m listening to the 85th Anniversary UHQCD from Blue Note Japan.
