Claude Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 I haven't compared the track listing, but the recordings are the same. Delta Music reissues (2 CDs in one cardboard sleeve) are the most recent, they sound very good and are also very cheap. Some of these Delta Music reissues are also available on hybrid SACDs, but only as one disc, so some music is missing on the SACD. The 2CD sets usually have 90 minutes of music. Quote
tjobbe Posted June 28, 2004 Author Report Posted June 28, 2004 thanks Claude.. thought something like that as I own two of those SACD's already... seems I will give specially this one a try. Cheers, Tjobbe Quote

These were originall released on the French Trema label, a label which issued recordings made by the Europe 1 radio station. The Clarke-Boland music dates from October 1969. These albums have been reissued on various labels. They all have the same music. Some labels issue these as double CDs, others as single CDs. The music is great. Quote
Claude Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 I remember the Boland/Clarke set to be very good. The sound is also state of the art for radio production standards, although it is mono. I guess you already have the new Clarke/Boland MPS reissues? "Fellini 712" especially is not to be missed. Quote

king ubu Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 tjobbe, these reissues are pretty chaotic! First came the jewel case boxes (the Trema ones), then the digipacks (I think some of them are still around on Amazon France, do a search for "Olympia", "Salle Pleyel" and the other locations where they were recorded), then came the cheapo Laserlight editions. I have that CBBB 2CD set, and it's great! Can anyone tell me: need I replace my Miles Trema 4CD set with the two Laserlight sets containing the same music? Are they different as far as remasterings are concerned, or has each edition just used the same masters again? Another good one is the 2CD set by the Gerry Mulligan CJB (it was discussed some time ago). And before you get the "Fellin 712" check if you don't happen to have the mid nineties MPS disc "Three Latin Adventures", as the Fellini album is included there. (In good enough sound, for my ears) ubu Quote
