CJ Shearn Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 my copy of the just issued RVG has the standard white/blue label, except the blue is a very light shade as a lot of the old BN 60's LP's had. Is the MFJ RVG the only one like this or do all the recent RVG's have the light blue as opposed to darker blue on the label side of the CD? Many of the BN reissues I have do contain varying shades of blue on the label side of the CD's but this one definitely looks like the light blue was intended and not a printing error. Quote
vibes Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 I was wondering about this too. In addition to "Mode For Joe," I also picked up the Hubbard and Powell releases. All have the light blue on the CD, much lighter than previous Blue Note CD's I've seen. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted September 15, 2003 Author Report Posted September 15, 2003 yes very interesting that the new RVG's have this light blue. did someone in the art dept suddenly look at the old LP's and realize the design? BTW, do you mean the Morgan album rather than Hubbard? no Hubbard RVG was reissued in this batch. Quote
vibes Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Oops, you're right - I meant Morgan. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Screw the label, is the cover the original brown? Quote
JSngry Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Screw the label, is the cover the original brown? As opposed to what? Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 The previous domestic cd was black. Quote
JSngry Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Didn't this variation occur in the LPs too? Mine is a pre-Liberty/UA version and is brown, but now that I think about it, it seems that I've seen later LP editions that were black like that. Quote
sidewinder Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 My Pathe Marconi LP is more like the lower (black) version .. Quote
Shrdlu Posted September 16, 2003 Report Posted September 16, 2003 Don't you guys have anything to do? Quote
Man with the Golden Arm Posted September 16, 2003 Report Posted September 16, 2003 Just to settle the argument the Pantone colors for the Rudy Van Gelder Series disc labels are as follows: Domestic RvGs- PMS 2738 Japanese RvGs- PMS 2728 New Issue RvGs- PMS 285 Quote
Man with the Golden Arm Posted September 16, 2003 Report Posted September 16, 2003 Unfortunately I know many by heart but I did look these up, albeit under incandescent lighting. Quote
JSngry Posted September 16, 2003 Report Posted September 16, 2003 Don't you guys have anything to do? Yeah, but stuff like this just builds the anticipation of actually doing it. Call it chore foreplay. Quote
