Rooster_Ties Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Just today I noticed Blue Mitchell's "Bantu Village" here on the Dusty Groove site, first time ever on CD (far as I know). What ELSE -- what other BN titles have come out on CD for the very first time, say, over the last five years or so?? Many thanks for helping develop a list. Anything within the last 5 (make that 10) years or so, though that's not a hard cut-off date. But especially anything reissued by a label OTHER THAN Blue Note (stuff beyond the RVG series here in the US). Titles that may have been part of some long-out-of-print Mosaic (as their only prior CD issue) can also be included. Edited January 25, 2012 by Rooster_Ties Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 i guarntee u bantu village isnt a blue note reissue, it MUST be one of those indie labels that get permissoin to releae it on cd. probably from a digital copy tape Quote
David Ayers Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 That one is released by Soul Brother. http://www.soulbrother.co.uk/reviews/92627.html Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) remastered from the original masters, then copied onto a 1630 and fed-exed to england. no way this cd is from the original master tapes the only reason to buy this, is if you cant make a needledrop copy yourself for your car, and you MUST cruise to some bantu village Edited January 25, 2012 by chewy Quote
sidewinder Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Have to say that - although 'Bantu Village' is a pleasant listen (I have it on LP), it isn't one of those Blue Notes that I would lose sleep over not having. Not a patch on the Blue Mitchell Blue Note sessions that are in the Mosaic box. Good that the Soul Brother guys in Putney have resurrected it though. Edited January 25, 2012 by sidewinder Quote
king ubu Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Hey, chewy, is there a road straight from Californication to Bantu Village? Guess that's quite a ride Quote
JETman Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Hey, chewy, is there a road straight from Californication to Bantu Village? Guess that's quite a ride You're talking about a horizontal ride. I suspect his trip is more vertical. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 Is this relatively recent to CD for the first time? - (meaning within the last 5-ish years). It's not one I remember ever seeing on CD. Grant Green - Shades of Green Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Is this relatively recent to CD for the first time? - (meaning within the last 5-ish years).

jazzbo Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 I think I first saw that cd listed a few years ago, so I'd say yes, though I don't have it to check, and I can't seem to find much info online. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 Did "Water" ever come out with any other obscure late 60's / early 70's BN titles? I have Lou Donaldson's "Say It Loud", and both of the Eddie Gale's -- and seem to remember there were one or two others (that didn't interest me as much). Anyone have a full list? Quote
mjazzg Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 I've got Freddie Roach's Brown Sugar on Water. Certainly purchased within the last 5 years but not sure of release date Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 Modified the subject of the topic to say anything within the last 10 years (not just 5). Anyone know what titles were in the very last batch of domestic (US) RVG's?? Or maybe the last 2 batches?? How about the very last batch or two of Rare Grooves?? I'll dig around and find out the very last batch of Conns (that'll be easier info to find, I think). Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Here's another recent Grant Green 'first-time-ever-on-CD' re-issue (2009, it would seem). Visions Edited January 25, 2012 by Rooster_Ties Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 I've got Freddie Roach's Brown Sugar on Water. Certainly purchased within the last 5 years but not sure of release date Oh yeah. I'd already gotten that date as a TOCJ, otherwise I surely would have jumped at the Water issue of it. Quote

Eric Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Heaven on Earth by Larry Young - came out in the last year or two - can't recall the re-issuer offhand (have it at home) Quote

I got mine at Dusty Groove in May of 2010. Would love to have a new reissue of Contrasts. Quote
David Ayers Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 That Heaven on Earth is a TOCJ. Contrasts is available again as an LP, but... Who knows, they are throwing a few obscure ones into the TOCJ list these days so anything might happen. Quote
