Blue Note's TONE POET series.

So if you promise to buy the whole year, you get to buy 4 exclusive additional titles? I would think that if they really wanted to entice people to do this, they should have listed all 4 of those titles.

I'm kind of annoyed by the exclusives.  I've bought every title in the series but because I'm located in Canada, four future and limited titles are unavailable to me?  Silly business practice.

Dead Tone Poets Society? Subscription is not available to non-US residents, it seems. 

But my Connoisseur CD of 'Davis Cup' is sufficient for me.

What is to become of the other ( and imo better) Grass Roots session?

[Brad]

To me it’s a scam.

Regarding the subscription thing, just another reason to be glad I already have a near complete BN collection.

[Pim]

The whole subscription thing is a real shitty thing to do, for the fact of those exclusives. I really hope one of the BN's I am still on the hunt for will be locked in.

that should definitely be a standalone record.

like Groucho said, I don't want to be part of any club that would have me as a member!

not seeing anything here that hasn't been available over the years in various forms. Some great records but nothing super enticing.

Maybe one of those TBAs?

Same goes for Jackie’s Jacknife. I have the original double LP that contains a session that’s on the mosaic set only. I don’t think they will include it in the TP but its a very good session.

[clifford_thornton]

yeah, I have the double LP as well. Strong set.

[Big Al]

Kinda bummed that Grass Roots and Jacknife aren't being released as doubles. I understand it's likely a business decision; then again, maybe they'll show up as the limited edition members-only releases? For that, I might actually subscribe.
