Kevin Bresnahan Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Interesting list Hans. Pretty cheap too at only 1500 Yen. I wonder why the price dropped? I figured the last few batches were intros. The following CDs are scheduled for release (jewel case CDs) On September 22,2005 Toshiba TOCJ 6561(Blue Note)24bit,New La Roca,Pete/Basra 1500 So now the Japanese and the European fans of this session will have a chance to get this while everyone in the US continues to be denied access. I wish there was a way to contact Pete Sims... I'd let him know that I think he's being a fool. Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 That was my first reaction as well... Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinuta Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Hey man that TOCJ of 'Basra' has been available here for y..e..a..r..s. The new series looks seriously good though, all remastered in 24 bit by the esteemed Toshiba engineers and at the giveaway price of 1500 yen ($15). If money was no object I'd repurchase the entire series. Dream on bro'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I don't view the European Cactus version as a chance to get it, to be honest. The Japanese CD is the only option as far as I am concerned. I may get it to replace the bluish Spanish Time-Life version I currently have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 (edited) Does anyone if these CDs use the JRVG remastering? The CDs don't have any english mastering credits. I can imagine that they woudn't like to remaster them again for this budget series, but don't want to use the RVG "trademark". I bought Jackie McLean's "Demon's Dance" (TOCJ-6502) and was quite dissappointed by the sound, especially after comparing it to an old McMaster reissue I found later. The new TOCJ adds some reverb (WTF?!) and has compressed dynamics, just like some JRVGs I have heard. It is not the dreaded "AM sound" of the worst JRVGs, but goes in the same direction.

No, I'm told that they were remastered by Toshiba engineers. Edited July 8, 2006 by J.A.W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkertown Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 I think the JRVG of Demon's Dance sounds like poo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 So does the TOCJ24, which made me to believe it was the same remastering. I've heard other discs from the series which sounded ok, but not better than the McMaster or RVG CDs. So they are only worth considering for titles that are no longer available domestically, but not as a sonic upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesman Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 I have a lot of these 24 biters. Usually to get something not remasterd elsewhere (Midnight Special, Cornbread, Here Tis, Bluesnik etc). Its cheaper and faster for me to import from Japan than the States. Sound is very sharp which may not suit everyone. Overall, I'm pleased with them.
