michel1969 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) My psychiatrist is achieving the second volume of his book about my obesssion of jazzcollecting. He doesn't want me to quit with my nasty habits, because he still needs me. Your opinion about what kind of jazz music and what record will be collectible in 15 years is useful to him, in order to anticipate the future episodes of my troubles.

AllenLowe Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 well, I saw my first LP on Ebay for $40 so I emailed the seller to tell him it was overpriced - he lowered the Buy It Now and responded to me by telling me so; I don't think he ever realized that I was the guy on the cover - Quote
michel1969 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Report Posted March 28, 2009 I was not talking about Ebay prices particularily... just what kind of jazz music will be regarded as "hype" in the future Quote

GA Russell Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Judging by this group, I would say that the titles most in demand will be anything recently announced to be going out of print! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 The entire 101 Strings series on Somerset and anything on Topps. Don't forget the Ames Brothers and the Chordettes. Original mono pressings of the Baja Marimba Band will be hot too. Did I mention Bobby Vinton? More will come later. Quote
GA Russell Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Chuck, I won't say anything about Baja, I'll let TTK tell you what he thinks! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 I see Soul Note LPs going for over $25 sometimes, so I guess anything's possible... Quote

dsockel Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Montovani Persuasive Percussion Series Pablo's "Best of" series Jazztone label Anything Digital remastered, especially the MCA Impulse series Keith Jarrett on ECM (never can get enough copies accumulated) Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Whatever comes out on vinyl in 14 years. CDs. All of them. Quote
Joe Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 CDs, especially "early" pressings, are already being treated as collectibles. As are MFSL discs, aluminum, gold, whatever. So I suspect all such audiophile issues (DGC Classics) will only appreciate in value. Quote
kh1958 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Montovani Persuasive Percussion Series Pablo's "Best of" series Jazztone label Anything Digital remastered, especially the MCA Impulse series Keith Jarrett on ECM (never can get enough copies accumulated) There are some nice original sessions on the Jazztone label--like, for example, there's a very nice Mary Lou Williams session that has never been reissued, as far as I can tell. Definitely a collectible label, at least as to Jazztone original sessions. Quote
michel1969 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks to all, in fact my question was more regarding PRESENT jazz music or musicians being attractive and ARTISTICALLY valued in 15 years, not on a market point of view, just artistic... Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) Chuck, I won't say anything about Baja, I'll let TTK tell you what he thinks! I'm just trying to boost the value of his collection. I brought all of my Baja albums back to the thrift store years ago. They just don't have that X factor that the TJB albums have. That said, Julius Wechter wrote some great tunes, including "Fresh Air" as covered by Cal Tjader on one of his groovy decadent records; and "Oro, God of Vengeance," recorded by one of Martin Denny's ghost lineups. As for 101 strings, there are a few great records including one with Nelson Riddle, "Que Mango" with the Great Les Baxter, and, of course, "Astro Sounds from the Year 2000," which is ALREADY going for big bucks. The latter album was an instrumental psychedelic master that they bought, overdubbed strings, and ran the whole thing through a phase shifter. There is also the 101 Strings erotic album, featuring sitar and female orgasm sounds. This is also hard to find and commands big bucks. A few of the tracks show up as bonus tracks on the "Astro Sounds" CD. In fairness to Chuck, most if not all of these 101 Strings albums were on the Alshire label, not Somerset.
