sidewinder Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 OJC issue. I’ll bet that the sound is at least as good as an original ! Quote

I've wondered about the viability of Newvelle Record's business model. If all it takes is waiting a couple of years and to get a CD version with extra tracks for about 25% of the cost of the Newvelle LP version, I would think many will wait. I can't see them gaining too many more subscriptions now that this is happening. Now, if they had launched their service with a much more reasonable price, I'd be a subscriber already. I don't think many of the Newvelle releases have been reissued. Its a shame, I finally got the two Preminger releases after about a year of waiting for them to show on the second hand market, and for reasonable prices, around $40. They are beautifully done records but I wish you didn't have to get 6 LPs to get the 1 LP you may want. I'm still looking for the Jason Palmer release on the second-hand market. They seem to be sticking to their business model though. I was relieved they didn't have anything I really wanted in the 5th season, which is so sad, though if I found the Patrick Zimmerli I'd buy it, I'm not looking for it. They have a New Orleans Collection up for pre-order, 4 LPs for $200. I'm strongly considering it. Irma Thomas/Little Freddie King/Ellis Marsalis/Jon Cleary. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 13, 2020 Report Posted July 13, 2020 Charlie Daniels - Fire On The Mountain (Epic). What a fun LP. I forgot how much fun this was until a friend posted on FB that he was spinning it in memory of Charlie. "Trudy" is a kick-ass tune. Since we're on the "tribute trail" for musicians who have recently passed, next up is The Moody Blues - This is the Moody Blues (Threshold). RIP Ray Thomas, the player on one of the most famous rock flute solos. Quote

Dan Gould Posted July 14, 2020 Report Posted July 14, 2020 Just listened and edited for CDR transfer: Jimmy McGriff, The Groover and Here's Brother Sterling, sole leader date by the horn on the McGriff LP. Arnold Sterling was a helluva saxophonist, IMHO. Quote
