CJ Shearn Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 are they going to do 24 bit reissues of Contemporary, Pablo and Galaxy stuff too? The only thing I can think they'd do with new Pablo 24 bit OJC's is restore the original covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 If they do the two Mobleys separately, and the Timmons Xmas album, I'll be down with this series. Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 If they do the two Mobleys separately, and the Timmons Xmas album, I'll be down with this series. Bertrand. And the Patterson Christmas album, with the same title as the Timmons. PLEASE! MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrdlu Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I hope these new 24-bit wonders don't sound like the terrible German 20-bit OJCs. Meanwhile, the original Original Jazz Classics sound great to me. Ain't no way I'm going to try to replace any of them, not to mention all the original box sets.

Fantasy didn't do that so I wouldn't expect Concord to do it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmce Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 You mean they'll get halfway through the same old titles before discontinuing the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 We have the RVG's and Keepnews Collection as recent history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHill Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 are they going to do 24 bit reissues of Contemporary, Pablo and Galaxy stuff too? The only thing I can think they'd do with new Pablo 24 bit OJC's is restore the original covers. Well apparently, restoring the Pablo covers are not in the cards so far, as the new 24bit Joe Pass album cover is the same lousy one they used for the old OJC and K2. The original Virtuoso cover is way cooler than that bland one they keep on using. Another complaint I have, though, besides the album cover art, is the tinny sound on the older editions, as it is one of the few OJC's and K2's that never sounded good to me. Perhaps this new 24bit edition will finally make this session sound fuller and more robust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMP Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 With EMI a disaster (in this regard probably only slightly ahead of the other major labels), maybe Concord can buy Blue Note - it fits in with their "adult music"/reissue profile - and begin reissuing Blue Note albums in some kind of OJC/RVG/Keepnews Collection series. I could use a new version of "Soul Station," with updated notes by Ira Gitler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Shearn Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 that would be neat. As long as they don't mess with BN covers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMP Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Joking about "Soul Station," I've aleady bought that one too many times!! Did get the XRCD - you're right - it's terrific! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Actually, if COncord did buy Blue Note, wouldn't that give them a half share in Mosaic? I should think that's a specific Blue Note asset not a general EMI asset. So MC could start to mine the Prestige catalogue for unreleased gems - like a Freddie McCoy set MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 I would buy Soul Station again if they'd use the ugly Liberty cover with the train station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewHill Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yeah, what a sad year or two for reissues: no conns, no rvgs, barely a Prestige rvg or two. Those days are long gone, if we're discussing a remastered edition of Soul Station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMP Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Speaking of this, the Wall Street Journal reports that EMI is trying to figure out how to lease their catalog to other labels. So maybe my earlier post - only half serious - wasn't so far off the mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHill Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well, I was at my local Exchange store and saw the Brubeck and took a look at it. First, these are not digipacks, but jewel cased cds. Secondly, they are in the "OJC" tradition, but without the "OJC" logo on the front cd cover. They have a clear jewel insert, but I couldn't see what it said under the cd, since it was a sealed copy. Overall, its an attractive package.
