Big Beat Steve Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 (edited) Just a few notes regarding various earlier questions mentioned in this interesting thread: @bichos: Re- the Lars Gulin discography: A great discography on Swedish jazz records (A to Z, including a comprehensive Gullin entry) is accessible online right here: www.visarkiv.se It is an enlarged and updated version of Harry Nicolausson's discography and I don't know if any single discography would yield that much that is really new. Regarding the SVENSK JAZZHISTORIA CD series released by Caprice (fantastic series!), I have Vol. 1 to 8 and from what I have seen the overlap with other available reissues of Swedish jazz is not that extensive. Some titles may actually be identical but the Caprice series also uses a lot hitherto unissued airshots, test pressings and other noncommercial recordings, etc. of tunes otherwise better known for their studio versions. As for other overlaps between various CD reissue series, I am not sure if there are as many as it seems. From what I have seen among the Gullin recordings from the 50s I have (far from all) it is clear the "overlaps" include some tunes he re-recorded for various labels throughout the 50s so one and the same title may come up several times (e.g. "Merlin") without actually being the same recording. As for ordering, I think you can order directly both from the Dragon and the Caprice websites even if you do not live in Sweden.

Cheers, Tjobbe my Swedish is non existent and even decent guessing has thwarted registration let alone buying anything, more's the pityas they have at least 4 Gullin discs not easily available else where (in the UK that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jostber Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 A review of the Collectables at AllAboutJazz: http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=5096 - Jostein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Anybody got any concrete opinion on the sound quality of this Collectables reissues of the "Baritone Sax"/"Swings" LP's by Lasse Gullin? Collectables hasn't the best reputation in this field and even a recent topic on this forum had nothing but disdain for the sloppy reissue practices of Collectables so I am just wondering ... Or would it make more sense waiting for the individual tracks from these LP's to appear in the Dragon series? (Some should already be on Vol. 9 I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or would it make more sense waiting for the individual tracks from these LP's to appear in the Dragon series? (Some should already be on Vol. 9 I think) The sound quality is fine but it omits a track Ma from the original release and it's liner info is sloppy with sessions undated and personnel listing not exactly easy to follow as the original sessions are jumbled up. The original liners are reproduced but aren't very illuminating (Feonard Leather). I'll be happy to replace it with Dragon issues.

brownie Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Same here on the Gullin Collectables. Gave up trying to find the originals and settled on that reissue. Will live with it until I can get better copies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostber Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Some more Gullin are available here: http://www.hmv.co.jp/search/index.asp?keyw...;target=KEYWORD Even a CD in Japan Edition. http://www.mic.stim.se/cda/cds.nsf/WebSear...=1&Count=20 - Jostein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Thanks for the links, Jostein. (I had totally forgotten about the stim.se site) The problem with all these Gullin reissue series seems to be that it is hard to avoid duplicating too many of the tracks that were originally released on Metronome. If you have the Metronome 2-LP sets from the 70s and the four Dragon LP's from the 80s (not to mention the Metronome CD series that was out a couple of years ago) you are in trouble finding the remaining tracks that Gullin did in the 50s (on Gazell, Polydor, Philips and Sonet) unless you accept ending up with more duplicates from his Metronome and Artist sessions over and over again. A real pity ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
