Miles Davis - The Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions: I have owned the original CD issue of Workin' for years, but I held off on buying the other albums due to there being this (formerly expensive) box and the RVG reissues.  I remember seeing this box in Borders (*sigh*) when it was released for around $50, IIRC.  I found it on eBay yesterday for $5.99, including shipping, which is a crazy bargain.

That's a great bargain. The mastering by Joe Tarantino, however, is uncharacteristically loud, imo. You can't crank this up like you can OJCs. Very irritating. His work on the Coltrane Fearless Leader box from just after is much better and not tiring at all. I once saw one Amazon reviewer mistaking this Miles Davis box for RVG remastering, too lazy to read the booklet, but going by the loudness alone I cannot blame him. Every thing else by Joe Tarantino I like (16bit OJCs, 24bit OJCs, box sets, etc.).

I first ordered this box from eBay in June for around $9, which was 50 cents less than the cheapest copy on Amazon.  The Amazon one was an ex-library copy that might not include the artwork.  My order was lost in the mail, by which time the cheapest copy on Amazon was $23.  I then found this 'bargain' on eBay, only to discover upon its arrival that it was a four-track sampler from Borders.  I had to laugh.

I finally gave up hoping Mosaic would issue a Lionel Hampton Decca box, so I've started buying the Chronological Classics - some of which are moderately pricey. But I got three in Paris last month and have got two more from Amazon, the 1942-44 just arrived. So I've now bought:

1942-44

1945-46

1946

1947

1949-50

In the post now

1950

 

1950-51 seems to have a lot of MGM material in it, so I thought I'd not bother. Anyone know his MGM material?

Richard "Groove" Holmes - Onsaya Joy (Flying Dutchman, 1975)
After years of listening to this on YT (the used vinyl was expensive!), I ordered the Japanese Solid CD reissue. Holmes is probably my favorite organist -- and this record is fantastic, one of his best, IMHO.

Indeed. Along with 'Shippin' out' and the 2 albums live from Count Basie's, my favourite.

I haven't heard Shippin' Out.  I'll have to look for that one.  Thanks for the heads-up. :tup

I look forward to finally hearing these classic albums. Nessa CD reissues always have very high production values.

I was listening to my cable TV system's Music Choice Jazz station, when I heard a good tune from a CD titled "Live @ The Loft" by a tenor player by the name of Michael Pedicin. I Googled him and found out that CD Baby carried several of his recordings ( https://store.cdbaby.com/Artist/MichaelPedicin1 ), including a couple of ballads CDs. I like spinning ballads at dinner time. So I ordered three CDs.  I've played one of the ballads CDs already and it is excellent.

So thanks Music Choice - you turned me on to a player I've never heard before and likely never would have any other way.
