Why those Spanish Blue Note Reissue Covers

[Dan Gould]

What were they thinking?

Wierd. On the other hand, the price is right ($8.99).

I picked up the Leo Parker "Tell me About It", Spanish releae. The cover is a bit funky too. But the music is great.

I think they all have the blue cover, the point of the thread was to show how silly a blue cover looks on the True Blue cover specifically.

With the two Blue Note cover books on the shelf, one can easily ignore the looks of CD booklets B)

What were they thinking?

How much more blue could this be? The answer is None...none more blue".

I just noticed this one one the Dustygoove site today. I wondered what the Spanish versions sound like. I also wondered if its release to the Spanish audience forbode it re-release in the States. It sure seems about time.

These were leased, and not to be sold outside Spain, maybe other European companies. But they are seen here and there over here.

I have the Leo Parker, a gift from Victor in Denmark. . . it is from a TOCJ master. . . sounds great!

Are these legit??

If I can get a domestic USA version with original cover, I'd pass on the Spanish versions.

Here's an older thread which goes into a fair bit of detail. We seem to have surmised that some of them are TOCJ remasterings. Some are rare grooves and some are from the original late 80's McMasterings, so you really have to kind of draw in your old bias as far as this goes.They sound fine to me.
