When is the Vanguard Anthology set to ship? I didn't order it, but the podcast for it just popped up in my Podcast app. Listening to the first couple minutes and it sounds like it's hosted by Storf.
reports on reddit of it shipping today

If you bought it and enjoy it, then no. It does suck that BKVegan is selling the loosies though

Gotta be Quincy Jones. I am interested to see how this one shapes up to be!

I agree has to be Quincy Jones
Edit: Have to say if it is Quincy, then that will make 3 Anthologies in a row that are pretty meh to me and definitely not warranting the high prices they want.

It's Q. Anyone need a copy of Smackwater Jack?

Gotta be. The email says “get ready for the dude…”

yes, actually. not sure why i've had such bad luck rounding up a copy that's not trashed.

i'd be interested, but if "the dude" is in this i may pass. i hate it when people say this sorta thing, but: that is an album one can get at almost any record store at any time for dollar bin prices. hell, MOST of his mid-60s, 70s, and 80s albums are dirt cheap. that's why i have six copies of "you've got it bad girl". but maybe if they include a door-sized replica of the poster from that one i'll change my mind.

It’s gonna be difficult to curate an anthology for Q. I’m much more partial to his jazz recordings but I’m sure a lot of people lean towards his pop stuff.

Well if you want to spend $300 this Anthology may be for you!

Quincy Delight Jones Jr. This will be interesting.

I am extremely excited to see what this Quincy Jones anthology box will be!!! 
I really hope Michael Jackson’s Off The Wall and The Brothers Johnson’s Right On Time are included in the Anthology! I love the song “Stomp” by The Brothers Johnson so much, that I’d be thrilled if their album Light Up The Night was included in the Anthology too (instead of Right On Time)!
Oh my goodness, I am just so freaking hyped up to see what this VMP Anthology will be! I have a good feeling I’m going to definitely want to purchase this one!

I think this is going to be different to others in the sense that it will potentially accommodate such a broad range of music. It's going to be really interesting to see how this one sells. These sets really aren't that cheap and I think most people would have to be on board with the vast majority of the records in the set (if not all of them) to justify paying the premium price. The more eclectic the choices, the less chance of someone wanting every single one.I am extremely excited to see what this Quincy Jones anthology box will be!!!

Although im not going to be getting the set, it might be a good time for me to dig into this book that I picked up a few weeks ago.

I'm in if this Q Anthology offers this combo: Sinatra at the Sands/Kevin Gray/QRP.

I really do hope this is pressed at either RTI or QRP! I’d also be happy if this Anthology set mastered by Bernie Grundman, Ryan Smith or Kevin Gray, as I can imagine them all being really good! If we’re getting Michael Jackson and The Brothers Johnson and more post 70’s soul, then I’d personally want Ryan Smith to be the mastering engineer!
