Blue Note 45rpm reissue

If you're concerned that this series (along with the upcoming BN series from Acoustic Sounds) is 'too expensive':

First, do a search on ebay for what original BN's are selling for. In many cases, in the thousands.

Then, realize that for 50.00, you'll have a brand spanking new, pancake-flat, heavy-vinyl lp that will have better sonics (45 rpm, careful re-mastering, fewer copies), super-low noise, and, as an added bonus, fantastic Wolf photos on a gatefold cover.

Plus, they'll probably rise in value through the years.

That's about as good a 'value' as you'll find in the world of hi fi.

Timely post. I've been meaning to call Acoustic Sounds-it's been a long, *long* time since I've received an installment of the BN subscription reissues.

I'll call tomorrow, but it seems like a quick e-mail to all the subscribers, informing them of the situation, would be a nice touch. Hate to make another comparison to Music Matters, but MM's customer service has been great-including unsolicited phone calls from the head cheese.

Update-

Called AS, they say they're mailing the next four of the series on Jan. 20th, to get the subscribers "caught up".
