Pete B Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) You're right, of course, how did I miss that? Stardust set is missing "Harmony in Harlem" and a version of "If Dreams Come True". Edited December 21, 2007 by Pete B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miles65 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I have the 2-cd set above but it is on Stardust label. It is a straight re-release of 2 lps on Jazz Archives Label (JA-12 and JA-13). There are 22 tracks on this release. According to DESOR, the following remain: 4/29/38 1 title, 5/5/38 1 title, 5/8/38 titles, 5/22/38 7 titles. Most of these are on the Jazz Panorama LP JP-14. I don't know if they are available on cd. There are also 6 titles listed as unreleased. I too have long anticipated the Storyville release. I would order a copy the minute it bacame available. It is now on the Storyville web site (www.storyvillerecords.com/Default.aspx) No track listing so far but it includes a 1933 newsreel item on Lenox Avenue and has a glimpse of Duke.

DMP Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Slightly off topic, but can I get some recommendations for '30's Ellington? I have the other decades pretty well covered, but have little '30's material. Where should I begin? It's overwhelming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that's too pricey, when it comes out there should be a lot of the (I think) now OOP BMG 4 disc set hitting the used market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Slightly off topic, but can I get some recommendations for '30's Ellington? I have the other decades pretty well covered, but have little '30's material. Where should I begin? It's overwhelming! The '30s recordings are mostly owned by Columbia/Sony. A few years ago they issued a 4 disc "Best of" set for cheap (much discussed on this board), but that seems to command huge prices now. The Mosaic set will be wonderful. Prepare to be whelmed.

ghost of miles Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) So it looks like there's a fair amount of material here that's not on the Bear Family box. Another one for the birthday/Christmas wish-list... EDIT: is this still a 2-CD set with all of the music listed earlier in the thread? The Storyville listing alludes to a second CD with the newsreel clip but gives a music track listing for only one CD.

medjuck Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Does anyone know if this available anywhere in the US or if and when it will be? Should I give up and order it from the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Storyville just sent me a review copy. The sound quality beats earlier reissues I've owned and there were several tracks that seemed to be previously unissued according to Timmer's Ellingtonia discography.

jazzbo Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Joe, thanks for the info. I'm going to hold off a little longer. Amazon US finally has that Lester Young two cd set from Storyville for sale cheaper than what it cost me to order from Amazon France some months back, so I'm going to hold off as long as I can. . . .

medjuck Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 It ended up costing a little less than $30 including shipping which isn't too bad for a 2 cd set. It did take a couple of weeks to arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Any advice as to what computer program will run the newsreel clip? (Track 22 on disc 2.) I've tried it in several different players on the computers here at work (QuickTime, Power DVD, Windows Media) and can't seem to get it to play... the booklet doesn't appear to offer any information about it.
