Yep, it's the original, intact--sans vocals, last track clocks in at 13:20. Excellent!

Sounds like "Rainbow Gladiator" right now...

Absolutely crushed to hear this. I love his playing. He's got a ton of terrific recorded performances. RIP.

PM sent re: Coleman Hawkins, “The Hawk Swings” (DIW Japan) [2-CD set; quintet w/ T. Jones, E. Costa, Duvivier, O. Johnson].

First one that comes to mind is George Gruntz' Mental Cruelty (see my avatar), on CD from Atavistic. An obscure soundtrack album for a very obscure little film, it features Barney Wilen and Kenny Clarke in a quintet. Amazon link Jazz Loft Also, I like the I Want to Live soundtrack, which includes 6 septet performances led by Gerry Mulligan with Art Farmer. Amazon link

Just picked up the Scott LaFaro Pieces of Jade, which features 5 very nice trio tracks with Don Friedman.

PM'd re: Henri Crolla, “Le long des rues” (Gitanes/Universal) [2-CD set from Jazz in Paris series]

If it's the same list, it's probably taken from the same source as mine---Mosaic/True Blue emailings over the past year. I haven't come across any other lists. I wonder which jazz pubs made mention of further deletions, or if they were referring to titles that were deleted already.

Yes, I believe so. I've had queries from Europe. Yep, a good one. Strange that it hasn't been more widely available. I'm afraid I've been doing a little of that lately.

Hate to part with these: Who's Crazy Art Ensemble 1967/68

Hey Pete, the discs arrived today--thanks!

PM re: Blakey, Art Buhaina's Delight (1992) Blue Note 5 Evans, Bill & Brookmeyer, Bob Double Barrelled Piano Blue Note 12

I never heard of this having skipping problems. Mine works fine. And I have to say the 1995 version (Larry Walsh remastered) is easier to listen to than JRVG and the UK/RVG versions I heard.

Thanks for bringing this back up!

The Koch reissues of these sound perfectly good, and some of them are still easily available, I think. The Frank Strozier/Booker Little date was also included in the Mosaic set and is a must.

I think I wrote Mosaic a few years ago with that suggestion. Don't remember their response. Definitely worth emailing them about it again. His three RCA albums wouldn't fit on a Mosaic Single and won't be enough to fill a three-disc Select.

All of these are in excellent shape (discs & artwork). No cut-outs or promos. Paypal preferred. Price includes domestic shipping.
