How do you find the remastering on this one? Some of the titles in this series were brickwalled to death

Not officially announced yet but this is a forthcoming Tone Poet release. Joe Harley mentions it near the end of this podcast https://www.soundsvisualradio.com/podcast/sounds-visual-radio-episode-joe-the-tone-poet-harley/

I think this series gets some criticism but I was all in. I have ~300 titles and I recall being really bummed out when the series ended in March 2004.

2022 Jazz Dispensary Top Shelf Series reissue

Lee Gagnon Quintet - Le Jazze (Capitol Records Canada, 1968)

I was pleasantly surprised by disc 1 as well and listened to it 3 times over the weekend. I regret not buying the Japaneses version as the US releases has below average packaging.

This is great stuff. And I need to find a shirt like that.

Somewhere on this forum someone recommended this album and while I can't find the original post, thank you to whomever did so. It's really good.

Craft is reissuing on various formats on September 16. There is also a book of Sun Ra cover art that looks interesting. https://craftrecordings.com/collections/sun-ra

This is exciting.

Mike Longo's Talk With The Spirits is a good record unlike anything else on the label.

I saw this and others from the Perception / Today vaults announced on Dusty Groove and my first thought was that when DJ Spinna did the compliation pictured in Rooster_Ties' post above, he said the tapes were missing. I did some digging and found the source https://www.villagevoice.com/2012/05/11/qa-dj-spinna-on-perception-records-new-york-soul-in-the-70s-and-why-a-tribe-called-quest-sampled-submission-better-than-anyone/ Here's the relevant passage: "they weren’t a label that I can say people really knew much about. There’s definitely a lot of mystery surrounding the label because there’s no tapes, no multi-tracks or masters. Everything on the compilation for the most part came off of records, so something happened somewhere. I don’t know if the [pressing] plant burnt down or something like that, but something happened"

In the booklet for this Select, Richard Seidel mentioned that Mosaic hoped to reissue an expanded edition of Live at the Trident. Shame it never came to fruition.

Terrific album. The Japanese CD from 2016 sounds great.

I've had this album for years and I'll pull it out every now and then to see if my opinion has changed. Nope, still kinda boring.

I found this box set today at a local store for $50 Canadian ($40 USD) and all 4 CDs were still sealed. I noticed that the the lid and bottom box are attached via the spine. Is that how Mosaic used to do their boxes? Every box I have from them (beginning with Elvin Jones #195) the lid comes off entirely.
