jazzbo Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 I'm with Guy---this material does not seem repetitively performed to me! I'm eager for this box set! All the material is great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Yeah, any more news when this will be out? Here it is seven months later and we have to ask the question again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 For those of you who have orders with CD Universe I don't like what I see when I check my order history. I still have a "0" shipped next to my order along with the $39.19 but now in orange lettering it says "Pre-Order Now! Release Date Not Determined." I hope that's just some goofing around by CDU and that my order is still good for "date not determined." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I'm sitting on my pre-order for the same price. I'm just going to wait it out. I don't think there will be a problem other than not knowing when it's actually coming out. I have no insider knowledge to back up this statement, I'm just being hopeful.

Quincy Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 What bothers me is the "Pre-Order Now!" listed beside it. I mean, I already have pre-ordered it. I don't think those words in orange were there a a few days ago. (And yup, as I have the Monk, and earlier order and then the upcoming Conns I have been checking my order history more than usual. ) I'm probably just being paranoid...speaking of which I think the Roswell Free Masons are behind the Cellar Door being delayed.

Free For All Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 My October 4th Conns order (which I placed some time ago) said "Pre-order now" until about yesterday. I think most pre-orders have that until they are released. I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul Stream Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 No offense to the lucky, but...I can't believe CD Universe would sell ya'll something for under their cost as in the f'd up preorder price some got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 They've honored mistaken listings in the past. We'll see............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 If you remember: SONY always managed to get their Miles box sets out in time for Xmas shopping ..... and not too early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 That "preorder" now has been there on the site all the time. I opened my order up and removed the Jelly Roll Morton set I had ordered along with it, and the preorder price remained and it sits there ready to go as far as I can tell. I'm anticipating that when it is available to ship I will be billed the low price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFrank Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I would think that there will be a point (if it's delayed very long), where they will cancel our orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trane123 Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 As an aside, the following is from the Red Trumpet site concerning this set: "PLEASE NOTE: There has been a list price change from $54.98 to $109.98 and our site has been updated. We will honor the original price for all those that have placed their orders! In other words, although it has changed we do not feel that it is appropriate to cancel your orders! Thanks!" Looks like some people are honoring the original price - incorrect or not. Unfortunatley, I didn't pre-order it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 Fourteen years (!) later ... and this is probably my favorite Miles box set. Keith Jarrett just kills it throughout. And Jack DeJohnette keeps up with him through every twisted beat — in fact, they almost seem to be sparring. Miles must have loved it. It's the funkiest boxing I've ever heard. Gary Bartz, as much as I appreciate his playing, seems the least at ease, even stiff at times. (If only Wayne had stayed in the band a few months longer!) Anyone else feel that way about Bartz's playing? I wonder what Joe Henderson would have done in that band ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjzee Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 I missed this when it came out; still kicking myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 I like the set a lot, too. You don't see very much discussion about it, surprisingly. I haven't listened to it in a while. Might do that this weekend. Thanks for the reminder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 18 minutes ago, Clunky said: Ditto. The whole set should really be released again. Maybe in a simpler clam-shell box, and ideally without those terrible envelope (minus top flap) sleeve holders. Classical labels in the last 3-5 years have been reissuing tons of fairly rare music from the vaults in clam-shell boxes. They're affordable and no-nonsense sets, where the music takes center stage. I wish Sony would do the same with all the Miles Davis box sets of the past. Those fold-out digipack sets (think the Fillmore set) are a drag.
