My only question regarding an all vinyl reissue.... Did the Impulse tapes go up in flames in the 2008 Universal Fire? Just sayin! It might be better to be on the hunt for the original lps that have portions of the Village Vanguard run. Or search out the original Japanese CD's put out a couple of years before the box set.
