Correct. It is a compilation but by no means complete. There is a lot more on old 78 discs. Also Lord's lists the Crown label and more. Similar editions with different covers are shown at Discogs. A german edition as I found out now on the Pandora label and another UK edition with a blue cover with shlightly less tracks and titles. OAlso some track durations seem to differ.

GNP Crescendo K18P 6259/61 [ Japan 1984] 3 LP-set Gene Norman presents Just Jazz Concerts 1947~49 Have seen this only at japanese retailers. Has there ever been a US edition of this 3 LP-set?

Agreed. He is a fine drummer and another one gets often a spin:

Riverside LP reissued in Japan on the Milestone label

I want to join in! Here is a great Bill Holman fan Willie

Havent seen neither of the two groups "live" but like them both (the 4tet with Brookmeyer & the sextet with Eardley and Sims. Here is a nice one with all of them

I wonder that noone mentions his collaboration with Bob Brookmeyer for example the great Paris concert. I rate this group even with the Chet Baker recordings. "Age of Steam" is lesser important for me.

Correct. But I have a more recent replica reissue from Toshiba , Japan. ;-]]

The original cover looks a bit different:

Is the Gonsaloves content of your Item on this Nocturne box below? Steve White seems missing.

Great voice and a swinging cat.

My agrgument was not that today OR technique is the ultimate ratio. We had the very early telephone and have smartfones today. I had as first PC AMIGA 500 & Comodore C64 and use today a PC with all the gadgets & software needed. Today you can download streaming music in excellent quality and lets see what comes next. Its a constant change and having such discussing groups here at Orhanissimo and others is also not too old. My arguments were that the OR technique at their peak time was a fine instrument for the collectors at a time when good jazz music was available in the radio which was not supplied by the companies because they do business means money by selling whatever someone likes. I am glad to have a great stock of unissued and widely unknown jazz from name artists in good quality and can burn CD-Rs as I want. The german radio stations do allow such briadcasts and offer a software called "radio recorder" today for digital recording of the broadcasts. In the analogue times we had the reels and cassettes. So what. You can drive in a 1940 Ford or a 2020 Mercedes. So make your choice. Thanks

Its like the companies do it. They have their original of that time on reels and dont listen to them every day. They press a vinyl and then have a medium to listen to. Same here . As soon as I have made me a CD-R the tape willbe not touched again. Probably they loose some magnetism in the course of time ( aa cassette tapes might also do). Thats all theory. If you dont have that experience with reel recordings and have no stock you really do not know what happens. Times are changing and the technique of today ist different. Thanks for you explanations.

Shorty Rogers First copy 10" UK edition (worn out) second Copy 10" US edition (worn out) Years later and still in use 12" LP incl 4 more tracks

Full agreemernt from here and have all the books you did mention + 2 more (sountracks + East Coast labels)

IMO many of the critical remarks from the postings above seem to come from people with no or only a minimum of exprience with this piece of equipment. I own beside an analogue Hi-Fi-set and a digital CD-player/recorder also 6 open reel machines (top brand as Uher Royal de Luxe / BRAUN TG 1000 & 1020 - 4 track & 2 track - and a big Revox A). Using BASF tape (back coated) and Maxell or TDK. I never had any trouble winding and rewinding reels. The only problem which can arise is when extensively listening to music via tapes that the playback heads will deteriorade within times and have to be replaced. If you cannot get a replacement the machine is useless. During playback you have to fix the reel hub ofcourse. If not the reel can loosen itself and the tape gets crunched. That has nothing to do with the machine itself. There were many good other brands available as Tandberg & Akai. Have dgigitized many great radiobroadcasts to CD-R but non of my tapes has ever lost istsd quality. No playback noise as vinyls after many years of use. OR was the only possibility to get a complete liveconcert recorded. These broadcast were never treissued on vinyl up to 95 %. So my treasure chest beside the official recordings is a real greast stock of music noone will every hear (US artists touring Europe). Same situation with cassette tapes. I'm using the Nakamicht Dragon and ZX-9. The plyback sound holds every vinyl / CD on a brand n ame Hi-Fi set.
