Charly/BYG have been releasing a bunch of these in Europe again over last year or so, both LP and remastered mini Lp CDs, so far they have done some Shepp, Art Enemble, Sun Ra, Don Cherry, Brigitte Fontaine, Gong and few others so assuming/hoping that they will do the whole catalogue then these Japanese ones will be the same mastering but who knows if they will do them all.

so is this actually available anywhere, despite the late Nov release date i can see v few actual listings for it and zero availability

Just got my copy from Italy, for 25 Euros its fine but would not have been happy paying £70 for this, its as cheap and flimsy as they come, at least the previous large multi disc digipaks felt sturdy and used nice material, this just reeks of cost cutting in every department!

I don't think i've ever seen Belle Antique releases sold on Dusty Groove so CDjapan or Amazon.jp is a better bet

Some great MPS releases are getting the Japanese mini LP treatment on Belle Antique in July, all but one have never been on cd. Wolfgang Dauner's Et Cetera ‎– Live (1973) Joachim Kühn – Cinemascope (1974) Hans Koller, Wolfgang Dauner, Adelhard Roidinger, Zbigniew Seifert, Janusz Stefanski – Kunstkopfindianer (1974) Jasper Van't Hof's Pork Pie – The Door Is Open (1976) https://merurido-jp.translate.goog/topic.php?srcbnr=75815&_x_tr_sl=ja&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc

The Bremen one is fine, that review refers to the Gesprächsfetzen & in Sommerhausen release

No i never inferred there were a lot (not like there are a lot of reviews for this release full stop) , i could have sworn i saw another negative one somewhere else too, anyway he was pretty slating hence my post, i'm happy to be proved wrong about the quality anyway, that's all i was enquiring about.

interesting, i saw this review on Amazon which was slating the quality, so he's being a tad ott with his complaints here? i'd love for that to be the case, i generally avoid those HatHuts for all the reasons above https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gesprächsfetzen-Sommerhausen-Marion-Brown/dp/B0CH1YF3ZF/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1S412KJ0R181H&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.e_NL4YzyIwyfelmqNV5mXc874m5w824VeYiEcC0Rr9YVo-iIXOL--eV6TcOazNux7LYIB4bLxQ_OLmWSPQnMUmKiQy-FynfxGldC_RSFKcTaTCiVtyn4n5nKbU3eglez3icpU4ci-3bd0IP0wgRPXX-Q_4TAEcyVBOGHKscoxmOcCKg4Pw0vUu9TNQWR8_-8yFO37wWBG4lUkWiE9vjTKfEOEITfndIl2tTX5IUiv9U.umAW0s8sI_9l6g6vC7fco4Q7qpdDzEnmBVhik0RC61c&dib_tag=se&keywords=marion+brown&qid=1715454370&sprefix=marion+brown%2Caps%2C88&sr=8-1

So from all reviews I have seen this is an atrocious needle drop botch job which is a real shame since the Live In Bremen one was excellent but I now see HatHut are doing one of those twofers with Three For Shepp & Gesprachsfetzen, does anyone have this yet or know if it’s more likely to be properly sourced on this version

I’ll stick with this much more reasonable Japanese 4cd version which has the same content https://www.discogs.com/release/25584262-John-Coltrane-A-Love-Supreme-The-Platinum-Collection

this is the correct cover https://recordstore.co.uk/products/the-carnegie-hall-concert-cd

That was only one song, Africa, though, i meant the other three tracks, i assume this will be in better quality too.

Looks like this show is finally getting an official release on Impulse, has the whole thing ever circulated before? https://www.dustygroove.com/item/169620/Alice-Coltrane:Alice-Coltrane-The-Carnegie-Hall-Concert?incl_cs=1&no_incl_in=1&sort_order=release_date

It’s available on Amazon U.K. for a hefty £34 at moment, I want it but not that badly!

Tokyo Bound definitely needs a reissue too, it has only had one cd reissue in Japan in 1990 so pretty hard to get.
