Love that Abrams set.  One of his very best and needs CD reissue.

I haven't even had an opportunity to listen to it yet.

Looked to see, before ordering, how much Meters I had on (legit) CD and was shocked/horrified to find out that all I had was LPs and 45s. A damn good number of those,. but no CDs??? WTF?!?!?!?

Anyway, looks to be a dream set, and this outfit is legit AFAIK, so "problem" solved.

Looks good, but I found the Reprise and Warner material is tame in comparison to the Josie recordings. There was a double CD on Charly that is enough for me. The first two CDs of this box, that's the real thing.

[JSngry]

On the whole, yeah, but there's enough spread across the later albums (especially Rejuvenation) that make me happy to get them on CD in a packaging such as this.

AFAIC, Zig is one of the greatest drummers of the 20th Century. He was one of the main guys to get my head out of my ass about the whole "swing is a jazz thing" nonsense. No - swing is a human thing, period, and New Orleans swing only sometimes occurs in "jazz" (and sometimes not there at all!)

Zig...that shit runs deep! He wasn't the first, nor will he be the last. But he was one who grabbed me and pulled me into it all the way.

(Al Jackson, that's another one...the list goes on...)

Definitely legit label.

Found these CDs today during a lunchtime record store run:

- Kenny Barron Quintet - Concentric Circles (Blue Note)

- Harold Danko - New Autumn (SteepleChase)

- Harold Danko - Nightscapes (SteepleChase)

- Chico Freeman Quintet with Arthur Blythe - Focus (Contemporary)

- "Papa" Jo Jones - Jo Jones Special (Fresh Sound / Vanguard) -- with Lucky Thompson  

- Nicholas Payton - Sonic Trance (Warner Brothers)

- Sarah Vaughan - I Love Brazil (Pablo)

The bottoming-out of the CD market continues. I got all these at absurdly low prices, none more than $3.

If you're ever in town, it's worth a look.

I haven’t had much luck finding CDs at Wax ‘n Facts in recent years, but always find some LPs that haven’t been reissued on CDs.

Well worth the wait though! You're now awash in "new" music. Enjoy! 

[duaneiac]

I found a STILL SEALED copy of this CD at a very reasonable price.

RIP Chris Albertson.
