Jazz Groove Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 There have been many jazz labels. A lot of them no longer exists. Some have had their catalogs absorbed by other labels.

John B Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 "Nessa Lester Bowie, Roscoe Mitchell, John Stevens" Nessa hasn't gone away. In fact Chuck recently reissued Roscoe Mitchell's Snurdy McGurdy on cd and is preparing to re-release his Warne Marsh disc. Quote
John B Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 "Soul Note Billy Harper, George Russell, Ran Blake, Kim Parker, Steve Lacy, Kenny Drew, Paul Bley, Archie Shepp, Andrew Hill, Mal Waldron, Art Farmer, Cecil Taylor, Max Roach, Joe Lovano, Arnett Cobb, Gil Evans, Lee Konitz, Chico Hamilton, Tim Berne" still around, they just had no U.S. distribution until recently. I believe Cadence is starting to distribute Black Saint and Soul Note in the U.S. again. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 JG, are you referring to CTI's first releases which included Jobim, Montgomery and Benson under A&M's banner which spanned from 1967-70? I believe in the early days of CD according to Doug Payne's excellent and very thorough CTI discography which can be found at www.dougpayne.com , some of those albums were remastered by RVG, and housed in digipacks as early as 1984. I know some of the releases such as the Benson's were reissued on CD again in 2000 I believe, and other A&M/CTI titles such as one of the Jobim's and I think a Milton Nascimiento album were released in the Verve By Request series a few years ago. I believe that King is distributing the CTI catalog in Japan as of now and have recently reissued some of those A&M/CTI's before it became an independent in 1970. Quote

danasgoodstuff Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 Appollo is owned by Delmark, who have reissued some jazz and blues/R&B stuff. Chess/Checker/Argo/Cadet is owned by MCA/Uni- (or whatever the're called now) who have concentrated on their blues and vintage R 'n R/R&B side and largely ignored the jazz side. Alladin is owned by EMI who did a nice 2CD comp about a decade ago and have largely ignored it ever since. Quote

Philip Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 (edited) These websites gave some of the information you require: Both Sides Now Mike Fitzgerald Jazz Record Label listing Scott Yanow's notes from the AMG (not up to date) American Music George Lewis, Jim Robinson, Wooden Joe, Nicholas, Natty Dominique, Kid Shots Madison, Kid Thomas Valentine, Big Eye Louis Nelson and Baby Dodds ... Audiophile as Maxine Sullivan, Marlene Ver Planck, Polly Podewell, Chris Connor, Mike Campbell, Barbara Lea, Dick Haymes ... Circle Baby Dodds, Chippie Hill, George Lewis, Jelly Roll Morton ... GHB Burt Bales, George Lewis, Chris Barber, Turk Murphy, Lu Watters, Art Hodes, Louis Nelson, Sammy Rimington, Graeme Bell, Kid Thomas Valentine, Pete Fountain, Ernie Carson, Captain John Handy, Ken Colyer, Oscar Celestin, Percy Humphrey. All part of the George H Buck group. Arista Muhal Richard Abrams, Henry Threadgill Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, Randy Weston and Marion Brown ... These albums were Arista-Freedom releases, which were subsequently absorbed in to the Black Lion catalog (now DA Music incidentally) or part of the Arista-Novus series (now BMG). Candid Phil Woods, Charles Minges, Buell Neidlinger Cecil Taylor, Clark Terry, Steve Lacy, Richard Williams, Don Ellis, Nancy Harrow, Booker Ervin, Abbey Lincoln, and bluesmen Otis Spann and Lightnin' Hopkins. ... Choice Eddie Daniels, Joanne Brackeen, Lee Konitz, Adam Makowicz, Zoot Sims, Flip Phillips, Bruce Forman Candid was purchased by Alan Bates (formerly the owner of Black Lion) c1988 and revived as an English based label. The Choice catalog has been acquired/leased by Bates and much has been reissued. Commodore Mosaic records have put out some box sets. Eddie Condon, Coleman Hawkins, Hot Lips Page, earl Hines, Wild Bill Davidson The Gabler label was acquired by GRP/MCA shortly before the Universal/Polygram marriage. [American] Decca Louis Armstrong, Chick Webb, Ella Fritzgerald, the Mills Brothers, Jimmy Lunceford, Count Basie, Woody Herman, Andy Kirk, Louis Jordan, Lionel Hampton, Billie Holiday, Art Tatum Purchased by MCA in 1957, now Universal; the link to its British parent having been dissolved. British Decca now also Universal. Flying Dutchmen Oliver Nelson, Gato Barbieri, Bobby Hackett, Bud Freeman, Leon Thomas, Ornette Coleman, Louis Armstrong Flying Dutchmen was one of Bob Thiele's label passed to BMG, who reissued some on the Novus imprint over a decade ago. Folkways Zez Confrey, Roy Bargy, James P. Johnson, Joe Sullivan, Duke Ellington, Mary Lou Williams Smithsonian Gennett Bix Beiderbecke, Hoagy Carmichael Reissued by Riverside in the 'fifties and Fantasy subsequently. Gennett was not dedicated to Jazz totally; its birdsong recordings were acquired by the British Broadcasting Corporation.

Landmark May have been absorbed by Fantasy. Bobby Hutcherson, Mulgrew Miller, Buddy Montgomery, Jimmy Heath, Vincent Herring, Elvin Jones, Ralph Moore ...

Johnson, Dexter Gordon, Fats Navarro, Miles Davis, Erroll Garner Signal Phil Woods Gigi Gryce, Duke Jordan, Cecil Payne Landmark briefly passed through the hands of Fantasy, who had distributed the label thanks to their Keepnews connection. Signal only had a brief existence before it was bought by Savoy. Nippon-Columbia owns all these labels. Okeh Louis Armstrong, Bix Beiderbecke Pre-1931 US rights passed to Columbia, but because Columbia was briefly owned by the Gramophone Company (later EMI) they held the rights until the European copyrights expired. Red Baron Duke Ellington, McCoy Tyner Bob Thiele's last label, always under the Sony umbrella as I understand it. Edited January 13, 2004 by Philip Quote
GA Russell Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 Has anyone obtained and reissued Pausa's material? I'm thinking of two Laurel Masse albums. Much of the Pausa I'm familiar with were reissues leased from EMI, so that's all lhistory now. Quote
brownie Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 About Beehive records, I understand owner Jim Neumann refuses to have the sessions he produced released on CDs. Told he still has a number of albums (a numer are now out of print) from his catalogue and he is selling them to askers. Another adherent to the 'Vinyl Lives' motto. Unhave a link to him. Beehive produced quite a number of great albums when the label was active. Quote
king ubu Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 Was Black Lion actually functioning as a label producing and releasing its own records? Becasue they also had stuff recorded for other labels in their catalogue. Some of their stuff is currently being reissued here: http://www.1201music.com/indexlow.html Not the nicest looking reissues, I agree, and they're expensive, too (at least here in Switzerland), but FINALLY they also gave us back Vol. 2 of Monk's London sessions (they've had Vols. 1 & 3 in their catalogue for some time now). They do not yet list it on their websited, but amazon.de has it (released last october) and I saw it in a store yesterday. ubu Quote
JSngry Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 Black Lion was releasing LPs in America as early as the early 1970s. A lot of live and otherwise archival stuff to be sure, but it was all(?) "new" at the time. Quote
sheldonm Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 I'm good friends with Jim Neumann (founder of Bee Hive). I will see him this Friday and will discuss the CD thing with him. He did give me several of his LP's a while back, very good !!! Quote
Adam Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 Silveto was/is Horace Silver's personal label. He distributed it personally. He still owns it, has all the masters, etc. Don't know if/when any of it will reach CD. Quote
Alec Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 Reading about Bee hive brought me back. I bought one of their albums (which I no longer have ) I believe it was Arnet Cobb and Phil Woods? Anyway, they had an offer for a T-shirt which I wore until it was worn out (today I'd need a bigger size ) I would love to have some of that stuff on CD. Why wouldn't he want to release that stuff on CD? Cost? How about giving them to I-Tunes for sale? I'd buy them that way! Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 Reading about Bee hive brought me back. I bought one of their albums (which I no longer have ) I believe it was Arnet Cobb and Phil Woods? The Old Dude and the Fundance Kid Arnett's final recording session. Found this one a year ago, sealed for $3. B) Quote

Found this one a year ago, sealed for $3. B) You guys are confusing 2 different records: BeeHive 7017 Arnett Cobb "Keep On Pushin'" w/Joe Newman, Al Grey, Junior Mance, George Duvivier and Panama Francis (recorded June 27, 1984) Uptown 2719 Budd Johnson/Phil Woods "The Ole Dude & the Fundance Kid w/ Richard Wyands, George Duvivier and Bill Goodwin (recorded Feb 4, 1984) Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 My bad for trusting AMG that it was Cobb's last date. In the meantime, what's up with the "Ole Dude"? Is that "Olé Dude" as in bullfighting or is that short for "Old Dude" (as I remembered it)? Because if its short for "Old" it ought to be "Ol'" Quote

chris olivarez Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 Jean Luc Ponty and Stephane Grappelli did a great duet album on Inner City and I believe Richie Cole and a singer by the name of Judy Roberts also recorded on the label. There were others but who they were escapes me at this time. Quote
alankin Posted January 22, 2004 Report Posted January 22, 2004 Palo Alto is now owned by (or has been licensed to) Quicksilver. The reissued a bunch of titles in 2003. Artists House was revived as a new label in 2003, but they're not reissuing any titles from their previous incarnation. I believe that the rights to the older titles may have reverted to the artists. Quote
alankin Posted January 22, 2004 Report Posted January 22, 2004 Evidence Records has reissued several batches of Sun Ra's Saturn titles over the last decade or so. I think that Strata-East is still around. They have a web site. (And I have a few of extras of some of their titles, by the way {see my web site}.) ... Quote
