BeBop Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Inspired by the "Doesn't Anyone Else, Have No Budget for CDs?" thread, let's hear what you had to leave in the bins today. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 A mini-lp version of Zappa's 'Studio Tan'. Quote
Noj Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Left the plastic in the wallet and did not order anything from Mosaic like I want to. -_- Quote

TedR Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Miles' Complete Live at the Blackhawk........I have the 20% off Borders coupon from the Borders thread which would take it down to $36 plus tax but I already have the 2 cd Henri Renaud version. But I could sell that and have ALL the music. I don't know. There's just so much out there that I don't have. Hard decision to make...... Quote

I didn't know about those. Too bad I already have the CDs (all of which are brilliant)...... I should add here that, at this point, I'm totally disinterested in vinyl reissues. Scott Colburn digitally remastered much of the Revenant catalog--and quite well I might add!--but the fact remains that they're digital remaster jobs pressed on vinyl. What's the point...? Quote
Jim R Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 I was tempted by a whole bunch of obscure discs I saw in the "new arrivals - vocals" section at Musty Groove... and I ordered... NOTHING! Quote
wesbed Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 I saw and listened to this Hubert Laws at Barnes & Noble. I thought it was cool while I listened in the store. But, it's really not the kind of music I'd play much (or, at all). So, I enjoyed my moment in the bookstore and passed on the purchase. I believe it was money well not-spent. Quote
LAL Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 A whole list of Prestige/Riverside box sets that were on sale. Budget already fully utilised for the Vee Jay Mosaics. Quote
BeBop Posted April 6, 2004 Author Report Posted April 6, 2004 Corey Harris - Mississippi to Mali Tony Rice - Bluegrass Guitar Collection Fortunately, these are things I can pick up anytime. Quote
Claude Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 (edited) I've decided to stop buying CDs for at least a few weeks (except some rare finds on Ebay or unexpected bargains or releases). While reorganising my collection (ca 1000 jazz and 500 classical CDs) I've discovered some great stuff I have to listen to again I listen to 3-4 CDs per day on average, so going through my entire collection would take some time. I try to stay a jazz listener, and not become an obsessive collector Edited April 6, 2004 by Claude Quote
Clunky Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Bunny Berigan JSP set... I felt guilty because of its reported provenance. Quote

GregK Posted December 7, 2004 Report Posted December 7, 2004 Coltrane Crescent and Live in Seattle-only because I have the 15% Borders coupon which expires today-I'm waiting for my 25% coupon which begins tomorrow! Quote
Late Posted December 7, 2004 Report Posted December 7, 2004 Didn't buy any of the new Free America reissues ... as they're not yet available Stateside. When they are, though ... Quote

marcoliv Posted December 7, 2004 Report Posted December 7, 2004 The Complete Ella & Louis Armstrong Verve Sessions Quote
Man with the Golden Arm Posted December 7, 2004 Report Posted December 7, 2004 I did not buy these double-disc textured mat-board long-book German issues of Sonny Rollins, Monk, Bud, Blakey, Getz, Miles etc, etc, yesterday. Boy they looked quite nice for $11.99 each. They seemed to be a culling of hits and such from various labels... Monk were the Blue Notes, Miles the Prestige and so on. Anyone seen these sets? Quote
sidewinder Posted December 7, 2004 Report Posted December 7, 2004 Yes, they seem to be all over the place at the moment here in the UK. The retail chain 'Fop' stocks them. Quote

colinmce Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Well, Wednesday I spied a SME disc at a nice price. Checked yesterday and it was gone! The same seller has Moholo/Bailey - Village Life at a nice price...considering that one if it sticks around. (Anyone have an opinion on it?) Quote

In the recently resurrected Blakey thread one poster remarked that on set 3 in particular Wayne nukes the joint leaving no survivors. I managed to find an affordable 'like new' copy of part 3. The other two sets in this 2000 Trema reissue elude me at the moment. Too expensive. I bought the Miles Davis Olympia 1960 concerts on these 2000 Trema reissues on release and am very happy with them. Still, perhaps I should buy the previous 1993 Trema 2 CD release of parts 1 & 2 which is still available affordably. Edited February 14, 2014 by erwbol Quote
