In fact, I'm pretty sure I owned it on CD at least once. But I found an inexpensive used Japanese CD in my local record store so I thought I'd give it another listen. It's been a while since I've heard it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted January 1, 2023 Report Share Posted January 1, 2023 I think it's a fascinating musical document, and I don't personally feel that any of the three "come up short." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 12 hours ago, Brad said: In what way? Somehow Mingus and Max are not always "Hand in Glove" like I had expected. And as much as I love Ellington´s compositions, I fear I like it more if it´s played by other pianists. I had similar problems when listening to the "Duke and Trane" thing. But music is something so great that I like to state that it could be my own fault if it didn´t get as much to me as it should be supposed.

Pim Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 First out of two batches from Japan plus Khan Jamal’s Drum Dance to the Motherland that I picked up from a local seller. These arrived from Discogs seller Ella records. Very satisfied as usual: well packed and fair prices. Not like European or USA sellers that ask +30 E above the median price. And what I like most is there sincerity in grading. This Meditations sleeve got rated VG. With most EU sellers these days that means bent corners, edgewear, a cut out plus some ringwear. Now this is what VG looks like according to this Japanese seller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeanne Lee 'That Come On Down' 'People Symphony' 'Heartplants' very early but very good That being said I haven't been disappointed in any I've bought. I will be very interested to hear what you make of your imminent arrival.       Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
