I ordered it the same time I mentioned it on the list, which was at least two months ago. It remained backordered so long that I had to refresh my order -- but it finally arrived last week. Surprisingly good sound, thoroughly acceptable packaging, personnel and recording dates seem accurate (haven't studied them all yet). Billed as the complete Duke 1924-1947. 763 tracks. In any event, enough to get you through the night, or two or two thousand. I noticed by the time my set arrived, CD Universe had it on backorder again. I'd recommend sticking with it and keeping your order active. Also, it should be noted that the price has leaped from $89 to, uh $95 or something like that. ... I've listened to the first six discs -- incredible, wonderful music, even in the early years. Martin
