My ETA (from the label) is Tuesday.

Shipped from Albuquerque...if you had preordered from Nimbus West you'd have it by now. 😉

Yep, tracking number provided

[sidewinder]

Mine has apparently now shipped.

[jlhoots]

I wonder how many Dusty Groove will get.

[jazzbo]

Mine arrived today.

[carville]

Got mine today and giving it a listen. Sounds good to my ears. Mark Weber's liner notes say "This is the first of a complete run of live at I.U.C.C recordings..." Let's hope more see a release!

[jcam_44]

Sound is good. There is info that the rest of the series sounds better, this was the engineer Bruce Bidlack's first recording of the group. It is a bit muffled but nothing to complain about. Musically it is excellent. Instruments are panned to one side or the other. Well worth supporting this project in the hopes it leads t the release of the complete run. 

[Spontooneous]

Arrived in Kansas City today. USPS media mail from Albuquerque.

[jlhoots]

I just didn't know that Nimbus West is in Albuquerque - my bad. Thus I'm still waiting for Dusty Groove where I preordered.

[T.D.]

For those who worried about jazz choir, there are no vocal numbers on the album.

[Mine arrived today and I just listened to the whole thing.]

The track Lately's Solo (opener of disc 2) sure sounds a lot like Milestones.

MIne's currently lost in the mail ☹️.  Matt at Nimbus was very responsive, and the issue is with USPS, not them.  But this is the last CD I would want to not arrive, as I may never see another copy!

Shipped today from Dusty Groove!!

Shipping notice today (from Nimbus West) to Australia.

In-stock notices from DG are notoriously ephemeral. I can't tell you how many times I've clicked on the link in their notice e-mail, only to find the "Just Sold Out!" announcement. I try to preorder titles I really want from them.

My copy has been in LA for past three days… who knows what it’s been up to.

Mine thankfully arrived today.  Clunky, sometimes USA post offices don't scan outgoing mail, so you may not see an update until it arrives at its next destination (which in your case may well be the dreaded Jersey City bermuda triangle of postal service, where packages go to hibernate.  They eventually make it overseas, but it can take a week to move through that facility).

Spending quality time with mine perhaps, not that I've checked the tracking

They'd have a lot to talk about

I wish mine was in Albuquerque. 48 hours after being "shipped" from Dusty Groove it's still in Chicago.
