Steeplechase CDs

[EKE BBB]

Looking for advice.

Is there any place where you can find any Steeplechase CD for less than 15€ or $17 ???

Thanks in advance!

[LAL]

EKE, you may want to check out this online store. May not be the cheapest though. Watch out for their selective daily SOS sale, which has not hit too many titles of late. You may just get a title or two you want even cheaper than the average $16.15 pricing.

Thanks, LAL and vibes!

I haven't seen them cheaper than 17 Euro in Europe.

I haven't seen them cheaper than 17 Euro in Europe.

If you order direclty you'll get some discount once you order ten or more, I think.

Drop them a mail, ask politely, they may offer you some deal, maybe.

I had never ordered from Music Resource. Nice selection!

I'm confused. I just did a search there for "Steeplechase" and they only showed 4 titles. Anyway, $14.75 ain't bad, but Dusty Groove has been listing some lately for $13.99.

Click HERE, and then look for the link that says "Steeplechase Records (Complete list)".

Don't know if that's really a "complete" complete listing of what's on Steeplechase, but there's 9 long pages of sessions listed, so it's probably damn near complete (is my guess). Prices range from $13.25 per disc, to $14.75 per disc.

Thanks, Tom. Rather than clicking on the complete list link, I decided to choose the other link- "This week's specials". I thought I'd look at the lowest-priced discs first. The specials are 4 discs: two at $13.95, one at $14.75, and one at $14.95! Oh well, I'm less confused than I was before.

BTW, although they do list a lot of Steeplechase titles, their claim of "completeness" appears to me to be false. There are several Dexters, for example, that don't appear to be there. Maybe they can order what they don't list. Anyway, definitely a good source.

Selection is limited, but take a look at Dusty G (they actually list some at $10.99 and $11.99, as well as the $13.99 I mentioned before):

The Jazz Loft is currently having a sale for Steeplchase for 13.99. Gonna get me a few, but I don't know which few - they have hundreds! One of those Chet Baker, a Dexter Gordon, Paul Bley. Any other suggestions? I'll scan some Steeplechase threads.

Ah, Johnny Dyani!

Opinions on any of the George Cables?

How about some of the European-led sessions by folks whom I've never heard of?

Currently in my cart:

Brew Moore Zonky

Walt Dickerson Visions

Johnny Dyani Song For Biko

Chet Baker Daybreak

Johnny Dyani / Mal Waldron Some Jive Ass Boer (not Steeplechase)

Dexter Gordon Stable Mable

Dexter Gordon Something Different

Von Freeman Never Let Me Go

Paul Bley Paul Plays Carla

John Tchicai Real Tchicai

Any thoughts on changes? I'll probably drop one Dexter, maybe add the Cowell. I have one Horace Parlan on Steeplechase, so wasn't going to get one now.

Ahh, the good old days when Fresh Sounds carried them and the exchange rate was in our favor. I cleaned up on Dexter Gordons, Jackie McLeans, and many others for $8-9 a pop.
