I can't afford the complete version, either. I just checked once again at Amazon: they are offering the Complete set, available November 21, for only $399.99. That's just $50 per disc; a mere pittance! <br /><br />I love Davis' group of this period. Their E.S.P. album is perfectly named -- even when I watch old filmed performances of them I find it difficult to see how they can navigate the starts and stops, the tempo changes, how they can anticipate every possible move. E.S.P. <br /><br />The Plugged Nickel dates make me ask: is anyone more capable on that ride cymbal than Tony? The atmosphere of these recordings is wonderful, even that inebriated guy adamantly making (noisy) reference to Paul Chambers while Ron Carter was playing!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16562969395232127451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21126193.post-50816597785702675862017-11-17T09:26:40.353+13:002017-11-17T09:26:40.353+13:00Thanks for stopping by.

This is the first time I've seen the exterior, and now I'm very curious to see what the room, itself, would have looked like ca. 1965. Your 2016 "Tow Zone" photo answers my next question, which was going to be "does The Plugged Nickel still exist?" Can you point me in the direction of some interior photos of this place? I haven't been successful finding any.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16562969395232127451noreply@blogger.com
