I suppose the worst that could happen is I'd be out $150 and have a shiny new saw blade.

Are we ignoring Walmart altogether after the zipper fiasco? There's something I want on there but I think I'd probably destroy somebody if they sent me something that wasn't the actual product.

If they had sent all of the notes in a mailer, it wouldn't have been an issue that the booklets were banged up. It still, however, would have been an issue that the booklet is poorly made and poorly written and that the wrong genres of jazz are assigned to some of the albums. I have generally...

That's an insult to the Cleveland Browns.

I'm interested in the conversations that Blue Note has had with VMP since the master-class-fuckery/high art prank that was Anthology. Blue Note is genuinely concerned with the quality of its products. For evidence, look to every Blue Note released product besides the Anthology. I don't think...

Universal will hold the rights until at least 2049, but it's parody so you need not worry about IP rights.

Read either Blue Note Records: The Biography by Richard Cook or Blue Note: Uncompromising Expression by Richard Havers. I'd say whatever you do stay away from the VMP shit.

Kudos to you for reading that far and that closely into the mess of a booklet.

I'm home. Electric on the Eel is awesome. Picked it up on RSD.

You're absolutely correct, johnpisme. Let's be kind and say VMP had since January 2019 to plan this. (Although, they likely formally started planning in 3Q18.) That's three months to announce things. That's three months to: Write quality notes for each album. I had assumed that they were going...

It’s like first year college students slapping a major project together at the last minute and expecting an A.

Picked this up this morning. I used to play the hell out of this on CD when I was a teenager. For anyone who likes the Allman Brothers, Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, or any other incarnation of blues rock, this is absolutely an essential album. Most of the Allman Brothers' classic sound was directly...

Touche. Let me ask this another way. If you could only preorder one of these, which would you pick?

Are the Ghost Funk Orchestra LP, GA-20, Michael Nau, or Barbara Howard worth pre-ordering?

No Sleep Records is having a summer sale that's pretty decent. Not my cup of tea, but I'm sure some of you will dig it. Most of their bands are too punk/hardcore for me.

Do we anticipate that the Tone Poets releases will become as valuable as the MM releases are?

I would care much more about the Wayne Shorter if I hadn't already ordered the Springsteen Vol 2 box today. I will say if the MM Wayne Shorter goes over $100, it stops being worth it.

It'll go for more than that. There's one on discogs for $115. I'd say more like $105.

I misread that. I thought you wanted us to outbid you!

Thank you for not getting offended. It's a wonderful little piece. I'm most familiar with Anthony DeCurtis and his writings about Lou. Although, I've also read a few of the other major Lou works. The thing that probably jumped out at me the most was describing Berlin as "lush". Kudos to you for...
