Claude Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 (edited) I just learned that Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer, the founder of MPS records and producer of many of the label´s sessions, died on October 14th after being run over by a car in his home town Villingen. He was 77 years old. Here´s a detailed article in german: http://www.suedkurier.de/lokales/villingen...97,1238610.html Edited October 31, 2004 by Claude Quote
Bluerein Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Tragic end for a great man...... on a lighter note....are there going to be more reissues in the MPS series? Cheers, Reinier Quote
brownie Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 This is very sad, Specially under those circumstances. He contributed to many excellent albums and let us inside his home when he had Oscar Peterson in to record some of his best sessions! Quote
Daniel A Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Bad news indeed. A man who decided to spend his inherited fortune on producing jazz records deserved a better fate. Quote
ejp626 Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 (edited) It does seem particularly sad after a lot of recent activity reissuing MPS albums and getting them into the US. I picked up Jazz Works (a sampler), Jazz Re-Works (the remix obviously), and a more serious issue Clarke/Boland Big Band All Smiles from Dusty Groove recently. All Smiles is over in the sexiest covers list, but more importantly it's a great line up. Johnny Griffin, Ronnie Scott and Tony Coe all on tenor! (though it is too bad that Griffin only solos on one track). I hope that they can continue to issue this kind of work. Edited November 1, 2004 by ejp626 Quote

king ubu Posted March 3, 2009 Report Posted March 3, 2009 As I don't care that much for OP, I didn't really give much attention, but you're right - those around now look exactly like the latest jewel-case-packed other discs (CBBB, Riddle) Quote
