I have all but The Kicker, and vendors are asking too much for used copies. I wouldn't mind having the Mosaic set in pristine sound.

Just got the CD. It's a phenomenal recording! I wish these cats were still here making music.

I'm really digging the new album. Scott wrote some great tunes for this one. Good recording too with a beefy low end. The third track, Haunted Ballroom, knocks me out!

I love their Brazilian album, Salomao. It's a shame we lost Volker to cancer at the relatively young age of 59.

I really haven't spent that much time with the whole set but I've kept a CD-R of disc 6 in the car which I enjoy quite a bit. Some of the other performances sound a bit tentative, like they were just...
If this had been three hours I would have stayed and listened! Jeff Baxter is the consummate professional and personable individual. The story about repairing Segovia's guitar was amazing. Jeff was...
That's good to know, thanks!
Cool! Del has the classic bluegrass looks too with that big pompadour! I could go for a good bluegrass show right now!
Anybody have the Columbia box set? I'm not sure if the remastering is the same as some of the individual re-issues but I read that some of the albums were improved quite a bit including On Your Feet...

I read about this earlier today. That's tragic. I have many albums featuring his excellent playing.
The only Dolphy CD I was missing. Found it at my local store last week.

Some great stories from Michael McDonald. And such a nice touch at the end with that performance!

Cool tune, which I haven't heard before because I don't have the first album. Thanks! Those first three 10-12 minute tunes from High Street is some of my favorite HOG music. Really great compositions...
I just listened to it twice through and it's really good. I'll probably grab the CD from my local store sometime this week.
Love that one! Ben is such a brilliant musician but he keeps such a low profile that he's not very well known.
I picked up a couple used CDs.
Stick Men - Soup
London Brew

Listening to the new album from Julian Lage. It's pretty mellow with a good dose of acoustic playing and bit of a country vibe a la Bill Frisell....

Andrew Hill: Judgement
Muriel Grossman: Devotion

A rather disappointing interview focused on old band stories with a hyper talkative rock star. I wouldn't want to see Copeland and David Lee Roth in the same room. Bring on the George Benson...

I picked up two CDs on Naim Records. Both excellent, but I really like La Saboteuse.
I haven't been into fusion that much in recent years but Scott Henderson's new album, Karneval!, features some...
I recommend bassist Michael Formanek's Elusion Quartet for some cutting edge modern jazz. They have two studio releases. I'm partial to the first album, Time Like This. They offer downloads only at...
All that slap and funk stuff is nice but when she started playing that beautiful chordal stuff my ears perked up.
Will give this a listen tonight. Steve, and Vinnie are two of my favorite musicians to listen to expound on music and life. Greg Bendian did a great interview with Vinnie last week.

Scott is getting better all the time. His latest three albums are superb! So far my favorite tune from the new album is Haunted Ballroom. The rhythm section really swings! Scott's lead playing is...
He is a great talent! I saw him with Pat Metheny, and I picked up both of his Blue Note CDs.
I love the first tune. That guitar sound is fantastic! And the the vocals too.
Not to be nitpicky but his name is Gerard Schwarz.
Agreed! I'm a big fan of M8 so I've collected quite a few. I bought my wife the Ozawa Philips box and was delighted to find that it included a complete Mahler cycle.
Schwarz did some great work in Seattle. I have some of his recordings. While not a huge Ozawa fan, I've always admired the man. He recorded a decent Mahler cycle and some good Bartók and Stravinsky....
Edgar Meyer: Uncommon Ritual
Bruckner No.3: Gunter Wand / Kolner
I love me some Circuits trio. The drums and keyboards are killer!
I have the Philips box. It has his recording of C. for O. and Music for Strings.
I saw a short of him interviewing Brad Mehldau so I'm assuming that'll be the next one. He said he had five interviews in the can before he uploaded the Omartian.
