I bought it through an Amazon.com reseller. The basic description on Amazon's page is as follows: http://www.amazon.com...&v=glance#product-details Funny that Amazon lists the label as Verve. I don't think the seller's description mentioned anything other than the set being in "Like New&quo...

I recently purchased Ella Fitzgerald's "The Early Years - Part 2" from an Amazon.com private seller. I received the discs (it's a two-disc set) in the mail today and was a little surprised at what I got. These are supposed to be Decca recordings put out by the GRP label (I'm sure you all o...

I played a few Shaw songs last Sunday while splitting the night with Kevin T. Hardly a tribute but my choices were:

St. Louis Blues
Oh Lady Be Good
Sweet Sue

Shaw is the first artist whose work I started seriously collecting. Lot's of good stuff.

I'm sure I've missed a bunch of essentials, but these are some of my favorites that have regularly packed the dance floors over the past 5 years: Alright, Okay, You Win - Joe Williams (Swingin' Night At Birdland) Bli-Blip - Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra (Like In Swing City) Blues For Stephanie - Ge...

Yesterday I discovered that one of my favorite discs is damaged causing several songs on the disc to skip.

Anyone have some good methods of repairing damaged CDs? I know there are some products on the market for such a thing but I've never tried them.

Any help would be appreciated.

"I Got Rhythm" - Chick Webb (During the California Routine)
"Liza" - Chick Webb (During the Big Apple)
