Anyone have every RVG?

Recommended Posts

Wondering if anyone has all of the RVG series by Blue Note.

I only bought the ones that I didn't have at all in my collection.

not by a long shot - had a lot of this stuff on prior issues (domestic/Japan)

unless it is a favorite/favorite/favorite session, I pass

better to spend the $ on stuff I don't own in any format :g

I do. 

I've only been seriously into jazz for about 5 or 6 years so most of the RVGs have been new to me.  Recently there have been some duplicates, but I happily pass along the previous editions to my parents.

Geez.. it must be the generation gap .. I pass on my duplicates to my 32 year old son, recently weaned on to "real" jazz .... his hip-hop friends are aghast!

Damn! I just looked at Marco's list .. by rough count I have about 80+ of them .... so kill me, but I am not a big fan of organ jazz, Ornette's Golden Circle albums, Cecil T., and Night of the Cookers. I do have those on earlier versions though. Several years ago, after I sold all of my vinyl, and filled with ennui at that loss, I decided to go for the challenge of acquiring the entire BN catalog available on CD for the 1500 and 4000 series. I managed to get most of them, one by one, through eBay, and other lists, to #4279 (what is THAT, you mavens), and then stopped doing the collector thing. I acquired the odd ones here and there as I liked them after that. Now I am "sprucing up" my favorites with the new RVG's.

Garth,

This little gem is currently available in the U.S. as the second half of the Jackie McLean Vertigo Connoisseur (or is it OOP already?).

'The Way I Feel' is by Butch Warren. 'Blues For Jackie' is attributed to Kenny Dorham.

You are indeed correct, Sir!!! (As Sydney Greenstreet says to Sam Spade) There it was under my nose all of the time ....

Perhaps the time has come for me to stop buying albums, and start listening to my own collection. That would probably take me the rest of my life ..
