Blue Note titles to be deleted

[B. Goren.]

This Solal disc was released less than 3 years ago!

One of his best recordings, IMHO. If you like Solal, get it now.

Does anyone know who remastered the Clifford Brown set?

Anyone?

I just checked the booklet and there seems to be no remastering credit listed. Original session engineers are mentioned, but that's all.

I think that's why he asked. Who wrote the liner notes?

[Noj]

The Brown set sounds good to me. The Birdland dates were RVGs. Maybe the same remasters were used?

Also uncredited. Think it was MC? Does Tom Evered write liner notes?

How can this be? The Brownie set was released in 1995 (?) and the RVGs in 2001.

Is it likely that this set is actually a CD version of the Mosaic 5LP set?

[BruceH]

Too bad about the Clifford Brown box. I'd have hoped they might have kept it in print longer as a sort of prestige item. Thank God I've got all of it in other forms. (And I'm glad I already got the Solal.)

Is the Stefon Harris worth picking up?

All of Stefon's CDs are worth getting. "BlackActionFigure" is a bit better, but this one has some fine playing...

I didn't know that.

Haven't you ever heard of time warps??? What, they don't have those in peat bogs?

thems all mighty time warps albeit all into the past. I am worried about Rudy Wang defining the sound of the future.

You're not a big RVG Edition fan?

ey I have plenty and I play them and enjoy the music. But I also know things can be better.

The Solal is excellent. I guess it didn't sell.

The Brownie box has been going for fire sale prices at the BMG Music Club for a few years. I guess the RVGs have pretty much supplanted it.

I always assumed that the Brownie box was pretty much an exact copy of the Mosaic. Only Cuscuna knows for sure, I suppose.

But without, I'd assume, those annoying clicks. (The main reason I eventually got all of the RVG's of this material.)

[Epithet]

Where was this announcement made? I should consider myself lucky I'm finding out about the Solal in time.

How is the Terrasson?

[Daniel A]

Where was this announcement made?

I'm still on the BN mailing list because I'm too lazy to unsubscribe; got a mail with info about this a few days ago. I thought I would be getting the info I needed elsewhere, but this time it was good I got to know about the deletions before the fact.

[HolyStitt]

Thank you for the heads up.

I just made an order that includes the Solal CD, with Plays Ellington and the Sidney Bechet/Martial Solal Quartet with Kenny Clarke on Vogue.

I happened to find a used copy of the Solal from a German amazon marketplace seller - turned out to be in mint condition, and was cheap! The music, on the other hand, is first rate - did you know this was recorded at the first occasion the Village Vanguard re-opened after September 11, 2001? This reflects in the music, somehow .... Solal plays with a stirring tinge to his music. One of the great originals in modern jazz. Get it if you like modern piano trios.

How's the Rushing? Worth some pennies?

Haven't heard it, but BMG currently has it in the clearance section for $1.99... so I bit.

Not as good a the Columbia sessions but a good big band date with Al Cohn charts. The band includes Joe Newman, Snooky Young, Markie Markowitz, Bernie Glow, "Phil Anquill", Budd Johnson, Zoot Sims, Sol Schlinger, Billy Byers, Jimmy Cleveland, Willie Dennis, Urbie Green, Patti Bown, Freddie Green, Milt Hinton and Gus Johnson. Not much over a half hour if you buy "music by the pound".

Huh?? What clicks?

BruceH is referring to the unfortunate fact that some of the early Mosaic pressings were less than ideal.

[BruceH]

That is correct.
