Jaffa Posted June 13, 2005 Report Posted June 13, 2005 It appears Garner-1953 will come out in Sept ??? ← Thanks for the quick and positive echo ! I don't want to sound rude but please understand that at this time I cannot comment on what will be issued precisely when - although we have a fix schedule for the next months and a provisional plan for issues well into 2006. (Actually, I have already written liner-notes for about 30 Cds that are going to be issued.) But here's the info on the forthcoming July-batch: 1380: Dizzy 1953 1381: Bill Coleman 1952-53 1382: Eddie Lockjaw Davis 1948-53 1383: Billy Taylor (p) 1952-53 1384: Bechet 1952 Quote
Clunky Posted June 13, 2005 Report Posted June 13, 2005 1381: Bill Coleman 1952-53 ← anyone know what to expect with this one, I've been impressed with what Coleman I've heard ( mainly sixties material) Quote
Kalo Posted June 13, 2005 Report Posted June 13, 2005 I don't have to tell anyone here what a great series this has been. I'm very glad Classics will continue, "Chronogical" and all. Quote

Kalo Posted June 13, 2005 Report Posted June 13, 2005 Jaffa Posted Today, 12:33 PM (Kalo @ Jun 13 2005, 05:36 PM) I'm very glad Classics will continue, "Chronogical" and all. Kalo - I wonder what you'll say once you see the forthcoming issues... Are you saying that the spelling is going to be corrected? But it's part of history now. Quote
ghost of miles Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 Jaffa's confirmation echoed in Worlds Records' mailing today: A bit of news from Classics Jazz label (this company also produces the Classics R&B label) - they are resuming production after a ten month hiatus. The next batch of five releases is expected in the next several weeks. It is unclear at this time when out-of-stock past catalog CDs from this label will be returning. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 I hope this means repressings of oop titles. There are more than a few I'm hunting. Quote
Jaffa Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 I hope this means repressings of oop titles. ← Yes - eventually ! It may take some time to get oop titles back to stores again since issuing new CDs is considered a priority at this time ! Chuck, you could always p.m. a list of the titles you (and freinds you know of) miss most; this might help decided where to begin with. Quote

It's already part of 'jazzlore'. Quote
Kalo Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 (edited) Yeah! Jimmy Noone and Andy Kirk! What do you all think of the Lunceford discs in this series? I'm trying to get this music in the most efficient way possible. Edited June 28, 2005 by Kalo Quote
jlhoots Posted June 29, 2005 Report Posted June 29, 2005 Are they going to continue the Basie series?? Quote
Jaffa Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Finally ! Classics 1380 to 1384 are pressed, printed and packed: They will be available in France from next week (July 11) on and subsequently abroad - depending on how fast distributors and shops order. Classics now resumes its monthly issue of 5 CDs ! (I am currently preparing notes for issues up to 1419) Since the hiatus lasted way too long, here's a run-down of the 5 CDs that are ready for dispatch: 1380: Dizzy 1953 1381: Bille Coleman 1952/53 1382: Eddie Lockjaw Davis 1948-53 1383: Billy Taylor (p) 1952/53 1384: Bechet 1952 and - as a "teaser" - the August-batch will include Norvo, Basie, Moody...

kh1958 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 I saw that there was an impending Rhythm and Blues Chronological Classics issue for Guitar Slim. I was wondering--is this the same material that's on Sufferin' Mind? Or are the transfers superior?

Don't ask me about the transfer quality as I only know the Classics-issue which is as it is given the extreme rarity of some of the material... Quote
kh1958 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 Thanks, I'll be buying this one. I just purchased a Little Walter and a Howling Wolf in this series, both of which are great.

brownie Posted April 27, 2006 Report Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) The Paris Jazz Corner website is selling hundreds of Chronological Classics, including CDs that have not been available for a long time. The sale is starting this week. More items will be added in the next couple of weeks. All those Classics CDs are priced at €10 ($12). Items available on opening week are here Edited April 27, 2006 by brownie Quote
HolyStitt Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Oscar Pettiford - 1951-54 (Chronological Jazz Classics 1409) Is there a tracklist for this one? I bought this one from Tower in February. It is really nice to have all of these sessions on one CD and I am looking forward to the next volumes, but I wish they would have put all of his sessions on here. They excluded the sessions that he led in the Forties because they were already on volumes by Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie. Quote
