Anybody who listened to a lot of jazz in the 80s knows the Black Saint-Soul Note labels. The Jazz Loft now lists four boxed sets which - it says - are remasters and only the first in a series.
Henry Threadgill, who is also going to be the subject of an upcoming Mosaic box, gets one which includes both Air and solo work.
Charlie Haden gets a box that includes the first Old & New Dreams and one of the great albums of the 80s, 'Etudes,' with Gerri Allen.
Enrico Rava and Enrico Pieranunzi also get boxes. They're decently priced - it works out to $10 or less a cd, depending on the box.
Let's hope we get multi-volume David Murray and Steve Lacy sets as well.
