[Victor Christensen]

Hi all

With the help from some good friends on this board have I now got everything that Sonny Clark ever recorded (except for two tunes that is impossible to find). It took me 3 years to get it, I am so grateful to those who helped me vith very rare recordings.

Vic, I'm curious -- what are you missing? (And I'm assuming you mean commercially-issued recordings, because you never know what will turn up on someone's tape...)

Yo Vic, I'm really happy for you, and I'mma let you finish, but Gokudo is the best record collector of all time!

OF ALL TIME!

Congratulations, Vic! Glad I did my part, I was trying to keep an eye out for the DeFranco's that didn't get included in the Mosaic but now I know I can call off the search.

I would love to see the list, might be some gems I need to get that I don't know about.

[Bright Moments]

congrats!!!

The two I have not found is "I'll Remember April" and "Sweet Georgia Brown" from something called Various Artists -

Jazz Club U.S.A. In Europe (No Label No Number) recorded in Europe January-February 1954.

Well done Victor, definitely a worthwhile endeavour.

Understandable , given that these tracks are likely part of a Voice Of America transcription disc of a concert performance in Europe (possibly Germany) .

They're "in circulation"... I have the date as January 5, and Köln (Cologne, Germany) as location.

Wright and White are only "probables" there... at least so say my files... nothing certain there, really, but I guess the compended "knowledge" of collectors is more reliable than the (useful though) crappy jazzdisco.org site.

Weren't these on 'dime' a while ago? (or am I thinking of some other DeFranco material?)

[king ubu]

I think that's where I got them from...

[Dan Gould]

So I trust someone is taking care of this for Vic?

I'd do it but I haven't been checking out Dime very often for at least the last year.

OMG this is the funniest damn thing. I've had these tracks for quite a few years, ever since I helped Marty by transferring his reels to CDs many moons ago. I'm pretty sure I was the source for the original Dime upload, if it was a compilation titled Buddy DeFranco Mid-50s and sourced as Reel - Goldwave - CDR - FLAC. David in Taiwan seeded a lot of stuff I sent his way, including that one iirc.

Vic, I'm sorry I didn't get these to you sooner but I had no idea at the time that you were looking for them or that they had any commercial release. Marty had his recordings as trades, or he captured them on reel off of the radio.
