What!? Where? I checked Disk Union and Discs Japan and didn't see the 11th release yet. The 10th release has been available for order on Discs Japan for a little while (links in the original post). My bad. I was quoting Dusty Groove. They had 4 titles with estimated delivery on 12/10. Poppy, Blues, Blues, Blues, etc. Probably from the last batch. BTW, I ordered 7 titles from Discs Japan in early November and ended up getting a refund yesterday. I kept checking status through the website with only an "Awaiting Fulfillment" message and no responses to emails weeks 3 and 4 through the

SOTM SMS200 Buggy, Help Needed
Brian H replied to greg788's topic in Networking, Networked Audio, and Streaming
I have had no problems once I got it up and working. I think my problem was getting it to handshake with my Denafrips DAC. Once I finally got that done, it has been smooth sailing. You might give it another try. May at SOtM was helpful getting my problem solved. -
Here's my take: Midnight Sugar - more like drinking bourbon at 2am. Moon Ray - solid group work Coco's Blues - great jazz guitar Mari Nakamoto III - female vocal jazz. Georgia On My Mind with the slight Japanese accent is great. Kazumi Watanabe's guitar on I Only Have Eyes For You is insanely good. Summertime (or any other Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio album) - They are all great. Pick your favorite song title. Star Dust is my least favorite because I think the strings sweeten it too much

I can't wait to hear it. Sounds like you know your Coltrane too. Naimi btw was his first wife's name. I would joke that the original version is romantic then later versions progress more and more off the rails (like my first wife) but that may not be pc. :-) Don't want to project that onto other people. I like the earlier stuff best but I can dig the later stuff. I started out collecting Blue Note 4000's, then 1500's, etc. Bought Midnight Sugar about 20 years ago and now I am on the TBM train. Haven't heard a bad one yet.

Thanks for the recommendations to both of you. Good as bought. Dusty Groove has it on vinyl but is out of stock on cd. Not sure about the, "it includes "Naimi" from Giant Steps which is a Coltrane tune that they take up a notch" remark. Can that be done? Them's fighting words for a Coltrane fan like me, haha. Just kidding. Tall praise especially if you note the band around him.

That will keep you busy this weekend. Please let me know about that George Otsuka Physical Structure album. I really like the Go On and Page 2 (non-TBM) albums. I'm hoping that they will continue the series. The TBM book has color pictures of all the albums and there are some that look great based on the album covers.
