Guy Berger Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Steve Lake just posted the following at Jazzcorner: "The Jewel In The Lotus" is indeed scheduled for release on CD very soon - at the end of August in Europe. Dewey Redman's "The Struggle Continues" will also be reissued at the same time. Quote

Claude Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Great news. Hopefully that means some people will get rid of their LPs ... Quote
andybleaden Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Jewel in the Lotus is a wonderful recording Quote
Stefan Wood Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Hell just froze over. Both albums are great, but Dewey Redman's The Struggle Continues is phenomenal! One of my all time favorites. Quote
jazzbo Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Cool! I only know these by their (fantastic) reputation! Quote
ghost of miles Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Great news! Was the very first release in the ECM catalogue by Mal Waldron? Quote
sal Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Cool! I only know these by their (fantastic) reputation! Same here. I'll be getting them both. Quote
Adam Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Great news! Was the very first release in the ECM catalogue by Mal Waldron? I believe so - Free at Last. Looking forward to teh Maupin & Redman - again, I know them both only by reputation. Quote
Guy Berger Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 Great news! Was the very first release in the ECM catalogue by Mal Waldron? Yup -- Free at Last. I think this one is in-print, at least in Europe. Guy Quote
felser Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Great news! Was the very first release in the ECM catalogue by Mal Waldron? Yup -- Free at Last. I think this one is in-print, at least in Europe. Guy And it's well worth picking up, as is all of the Waldron stuff from that period (all of his stuff from any period, actually). Quote
mikeweil Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Jewel in the Lotus is a wonderful recording ... indeed, and I won't sell my LP although I will buy the CD as soon as it hits the bins! Redman's too (never heard that one before)! Quote
Sundog Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 CHEWY SAYS GOOD NEWS - ECM ROCKS BADDER THAN GENESIS! Not necessarily a compliment but good news none the less. Quote
AndrewHill Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Great news! Was the very first release in the ECM catalogue by Mal Waldron? Yup -- Free at Last. I think this one is in-print, at least in Europe. Guy I don't think Free at Last is available in the states anymore. Great album if you can locate one. Quote
Adam Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I don't think it's hard to track down. I think Jazz Loft had it. Quote
AndrewHill Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I don't think it's hard to track down. I think Jazz Loft had it. Looks like you're right, just checked Amazon and they have used copies at decent prices. Now that's good to hear! Quote
sal Posted August 13, 2007 Report Posted August 13, 2007 Any news about these? Still not up for presale at CD Universe. Quote
Tom Storer Posted August 13, 2007 Report Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) I got "The Struggle Continues" when it came out, and during my post-vinyl years I've at times been close to buying a turntable just to be able to listen to it again. A real classic. Dewey, Charles Eubanks on piano (cousin of Robin and Kevin--a real talent, wonder what happened to him), Mark Helias and Ed Blackwell. (In fact I saw the band in concert at the Village Gate, but with John Betsch instead of Blackwell. I don't have anything against Betsch, but I would have loved Blackwell to be there instead!) I'll be picking up both of these. Edited August 13, 2007 by Tom Storer Quote
Eloe Omoe Posted August 13, 2007 Report Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) Charles Eubanks on piano (cousin of Robin and Kevin--a real talent, wonder what happened to him) He recorded for CIMP in 2001 ("New Beginnings") and 2003 ("Birds of Bagdad"). I have the first one, a nice record. In the liner notes, Charles explains that his absence from the scene has been fueled by "personal problems". I read somewhere that the CD was nominated by the Jazz Journalists Association as the best Jazz debut of 2002 (Eubanks was born in 1948...). So he is related to all the other Eubankses. I know that Kevin, Robin and Duane are brothers, and that there was another Eubanks, the late bassist David). The first three are Ray Bryant's nephews. Edited August 13, 2007 by Eloe Omoe Quote
mikeweil Posted August 13, 2007 Report Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) ..... Charles Eubanks on piano (cousin of Robin and Kevin--a real talent, wonder what happened to him) Here's a review of his solo LP - the link to his website produces "under construction" ... Charles Eubanks on C.I.M.P. From Artist Outreach Network: He will be earning his BS in Music from Lehman College in 2005, and plans to teach music in some capacity, as well as continuing to develop his music. He takes private students, presently. Edited August 13, 2007 by mikeweil Quote
mikeweil Posted August 13, 2007 Report Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) Any news about these? Still not up for presale at CD Universe. The ECM coming soon page says August 2007 - scroll down. JPC has a release date of September 4, however. Edited August 13, 2007 by mikeweil Quote

I know that Kevin, Robin and Duane are brothers, and that there was another Eubanks, the late bassist David). The first three are Ray Bryant's nephews. As I recall, David Eubanks was also a cousin of Kevin, Robin and Duane. Drowned while swimming off shore someplace in the late 80's, I think, cutting short a promising career. Quote
lmasterlo Posted August 31, 2007 Report Posted August 31, 2007 These are on the Amazon.co.uk website. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_/2...s=bennie+maupin Quote
B. Clugston Posted August 31, 2007 Report Posted August 31, 2007 I’d be interested in seeing a statement from Chewy, who, on the one hand, is a big Bennie Maupin fan, but, on the other, once told us: “JUST REMEMBER every time u listen to an ECM record, Big John Patton cries.” Quote
