I occasionally see a ridiculous price at Amazon, but in the case of the Take 5 album, other places on the web have similar several hundred dollar prices for a cd. I've never seen that before. Is this common for Japanese jazz?
This group has put out some very fine audiophile albums commanding higher prices- $25 to $50 for a cd. Some are worth the bonus (My Funny Valentine, Autumn Leaves), others not so much(Live at the Pit Inn). I was listening to the samples on "Come Together"... hits and misses.
