paul secor Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 As Clifford said, there are many. Two favorites of mine that, as far as I know, never made it to CD: Al Francis: Jazz Bohemia Revisited (Lost Cosmic Unity) Adolphus "Doc" Cheatham (Jezebel) 2 LP set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) I don't suppose this will fit under 'greatest' but it's one I don't think has ever been on CD and I'd like to hear it: Could get a 'rubbish cover' award though.

Free For All Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 I was happy to finally find Horace Silver's 70s sides Silver 'N Brass and Silver 'N Wood issued on CD, albeit as a semi-pricey import. The others in the series (Percussion, Voices & Strings) are also either available now or will be soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard snippets of all of this stuff over time and none of it has me itching to spend big bucks to get it on CD. Heck, I've even waffled at spending $5 for a used LP of it.

Brass and Wood are the strongest of the series IMO, the others hold less interest for me. I like the core quintet with Berg and Harrell. YMMV.

This one has been released on CD along with most other Elvin Jones and Oregon Vanguard albums (Comet Records, Italy). Good one, very much recommended. There's a nice Ralph Towner interview somewhere (allaboutjazz?) where he discusses this session. If I remember correctly they were planning a photo shoot for LP cover but Elvin failed to show up so they glued his face up there and added some "drum sticks."

sgcim Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 I don't know if this one has been mentioned, but I don't think my favorite CTI record of all-time, "Blue Moses" by Randy Weston has made it to CD. It could be because Randy hated that LP more than anything he ever did, and refuses to let it be issued.My other fave CTI LP, "Salt Song", by Stanley Turrentine, was finally released on CD a few years back.I had to wipe the drool from my mouth when I was buying that one.

ejp626 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 "Blue Moses" was issued as a Japanese import. I don't recall if it ever was issued in the U.S. Yes, CTI put it out in 2011. http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Moses-Records-Anniversary-Edition/dp/B0057FWU3I/ref=tmm_acd_title_0 I actually paid a somewhat unreasonable price for a used copy of the import, only to find (a bit too late) that the last track was damaged. So I was quite glad when it was reissued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I was quite glad when it was reissued. Great news. I wonder if Randy Weston was bugged that they re-issued that on CD? I don't know what he didn't like about it. It wasn't African enough?That reminds me of the Joe Puma story. He was doing a gig with either Richard Davis or Ron Carter (I forget which), and the bass player said he was sick of doing all these standards written by white, Broadway songwriters. he wanted to do music of his people.Joe said to him," Alright, you wait there for a minute. I'm gonna go outside and get a log, and you can beat on it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webbcity Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) Oh man, there are SO many, but the first ones that come to mind for me are: Mtume Umoja Ensemble - Alkebu-lan/Land of the Blacks: Live at the East (Strata East) Harold Land - Choma (Burn) (Mainstream) Harold Land - A New Shade of Blue (Mainstream) Stanley Cowell - Equipoise (Galaxy) Henry Threadgill's "When Was That?"

HutchFan Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 I'm don't know about "greatest" --  but this is certainly one of my very favorite recordings. I don't think it's ever been issued on CD: David Liebman, Richie Beirach - Forgotten Fantasies (A&M Horizon, 1976) Sublime.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
