I have a rip of the tracks, as well as the original Verve LP, but would love to have a copy of the full banana. It was pretty elusive when it came out - the whole series was in limited quantities. I don’t think I ever saw a copy of the 3CD here in the UK and picked mine up during a visit to the States back then. The other very elusive one I recall in that Verve Elite series is the Lalo Schifrin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 The only one I had in the series was the Alan Shorter. At that point (1998) I didn't grasp how free Lee was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 Yeah, that Shorter was a scarce one too. Another one I had to pick up from the States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 I probably gave it away when I got a copy of Parabolic a short time later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me years to get a vinyl copy of that one on UK Verve. Kept both ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than I want to pay, but I guess if it sold that fast, then I suppose it’s priced right with what the market will bear. https://www.dustygroove.com/item/487024 Not sure what I already said upthread, but I’d be happy if I ever found one for $40, give or take $5. FWIW, I paid $45 for a used copy back in 2005, and I remember thinking at the time that I'd gotten a pretty good deal. I was on the lookout for a copy for some time before I finally got one at a price I was willing to pay. Copies certainly haven't gotten any more plentiful (or cheaper) in the used market since then.

scooter_phx Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 I'd take $100 for these two CD sets... The Konitz is the 3-CD version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a copy (new) from a local record store here in Brisbane at the time (1998) - still have the receipt - it was expensive even at the time, costing me $Aus 84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
