jazzkrow Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 I know that this has been covered before, but it has been awhile and I was curious whether Blue Note under their current grand poobah, Don Was, has any plans to re-issue ANY previously unreleased BN material from 60s or 70s? It has been forever since we have had anything new. I'm sure Cuscuna knows if there is still any material out there in the vaults that would make financial sense to release. Apparently I am mourning the "official" passing of the period where we could anticipate any new releases. Time to seal the casket for good? I'm afraid I know the answer, but was curious if it truly is the end... A definitive answer is appreciated-and then I can possibly consider my collection complete as it ever will be... Quote
Bill B Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 There might be a Wayne Shorter Box Set coming out,but the vault has been pretty much cleaned . Quote
colinmce Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 Those particular series? Not a chance. Otherwise? Still probably nothing. Quote
king ubu Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 What's the state of EMI anyway? Whom do they belong to, and do those have any interest in releasing any jazz at all? In classical, they seem to run their new productions mainly via Virgin Classics, but EMI itself seems to have mostly turned into a reissues operation. Wish it were at least that in jazz, but it's rather totally quantité négligeable there, it seems (no matter if Was or not). Quote
erwbol Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 Only EMI Japan seems still active reissuing Blue Note material with the BNLT999 & BNLA999 series. Next month remastered SHM CDs of Joe Henderson's State Of The Tenor Vol. 1 & 2 will be released. See post #29 in thread. Quote

I guess I can gladly book that under "superfluous" ... no need to re-buy stuff again and again, I'd rather see the few remaining rarities out and around. And maybe - despite Cuscuna's reluctancy - the odd unissued/canned session, too. Quote
Steve Gray Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 I would love to see :-- Blue Mitchell Bring It On Home To Me Sam Rivers New Conception both never issued on CD as far as I am aware. Plus there are others that have no been available for a long time. e.g. The Empty Foxhole Quote
J.A.W. Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 I would love to see :-- Blue Mitchell Bring It On Home To Me Sam Rivers New Conception both never issued on CD as far as I am aware. Both were available on CD, in the Mitchell and Rivers Mosaic sets respectively. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 I'd love to see Contrasts released as an individual title... Quote
CJ Shearn Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 I'd love to see Contrasts released as an individual title... Same...... A Wayne set? When? Mosaic? Quote
Face of the Bass Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 For someone who got into jazz around 10 years ago, there was no better introduction to the history of modern jazz than the RVG titles that were released from the late 1990s through the end of the last decade. I discovered SO MUCH music through that series, along with the BN Conn releases. Maybe the well is dry anyways, but it's a shame that reissue programs like that are dead. Quote

The serial number TOCJ-95101 has already been taken by a new release (Terri Lyne Carrington - Money Jungle (2013/07/24)), so there could conceivably be 60 more reissues... Quote
robertoart Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 Damn, it's the other Hill I need! Looks like they'll get to it soon Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 I'd love to see Contrasts released as an individual title... You can get a decent sounding vinyl version for reasonable $. Quote
LarryCurleyMoe Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 I wouldn't mind a re-issue of 3 Sounds/Oliver Nelson Orchestra "Coldwater Flat." Quote
Kyo Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 Some good suggestions in this thread. I would like to see Jackie McLean's High Frequency released on CD (outside of the old Mosaic box). Quote
Brad Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 The chances of seeing any Three Sounds being reissued are purty slim. Quote
felser Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Some good suggestions in this thread. I would like to see Jackie McLean's High Frequency released on CD (outside of the old Mosaic box). Totally agree with that. Quote

Totally agree with that. Hadn't even realized it had never appeared as a single disc ... love that Mosaic, I think it contains McLean's very best! Quote
.:.impossible Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I'd love to see Contrasts released as an individual title... You can get a decent sounding vinyl version for reasonable $. The copy I bought is a bad pressing, as is often the case at this price. One tune has a skip about two minutes in. Defective. Such a bummer! Quote
Stefan Wood Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I bet if there are any future reissues from Blue Note, it will come via downloads like the Donald Byrd live concert. Quote
sonnymax Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 I bet if there are any future reissues from Blue Note, it will come via downloads like the Donald Byrd live concert. Although you can listen to streaming media of Donald Byrd Live at Montreux from July 5, 1973 on Blue Note's website, it is not available for download. Quote
