Welp, just finished that 5LP Schubert box set, complete. I’m a bit stunned. I’ve always wanted to like that set, the vinyl is in NM condition, but, it never ‘did it for me’. Something was missing, it seemed lifeless, and I’d tire of it after an LP, or two, and go back in the shelves. Today it was quite awesome at times. Either it was me, or the Trumpet reached into the grooves and allowed it to sound as I always hoped it would. Quite amazing really.
Now....

@tomic601 ,
Check out their site.
Got my set for under $100
Ok don’t consider David a hanger-on.!
I feel he knows Gillian is the main part of their relationship and is fine with that. He has his own albums that are Great! |

I consider Gillian/David similar to Rosanne/John except John decidedly plays a smaller role in his wife's output. |

Thanks Steve, I’ve been traveling. Grey’s Anatomy had a business trip South so I tagged along. It gave me a chance (Uber-style) to make a very productive visit to a favorite out of town independent record store - this one in San Jose and I came home with a large box. Two or three treasures, many that had been on my long established want list, and quite a few I hadn’t realized yet that I needed.... it was a fun afternoon there with the always helpful owner and staff but I also went through the collectibles and back room stash of Jazz treasures with a Japanese audiophile who was there - terrific guy. We both wound up with original pressings of classics and had a fun discussion about different favorites. He got an OP Time Out and some others. I got a NM first mono of the Sailboat Cover Miles Ahead and a NM first mono of the Bill Evans Trio at Shelly’s Manne-Hole.
So, a fun (to me) thing also happened there. I found a NM copy of a relatively obscure record worth at least $150, that I already have, marked at $5. So, for some silly reason, I pointed that out to the owner, suggesting that he think about raising his price on it. He looked it up and confirmed the recent rise in market value and we discussed some of the crazy things happening with record prices and the effect of YouTube reviews, etc. Then, when I went to check out he insisted on just giving me the record, saying something about it should be my reward for coming in and crate diving. Well, I guess I had also bought a very large stack. Great fun. |
