Bethlehem label being reissued in US

[gmonahan]

The two Max Bennett discs have some primo Carl Fontana on them. A real discovery for me.

Oh no! I've bought way too many of these and now there's more?

LOL

"Just when I thought I was out. . . they pull me back in."

[romualdo]

the next batch of Japanese Bethlehems were released yesterday (Dec 11) & already a number are OOP on the CD Japan site (Shavers/Sullivan, Sachs, Jonah Jones, Socolow, Mann - Flamingo)

hopefully they should all be available via Dusty Groove (listed but not yet available)

Thanks for this update.

Does anyone know whether:

(1) The two Joe Derise reissues from Japan contain material that differs from the 20 (or so) track US reissue of two albums on 1 CD?

(2) The Ruby Braff CD's contain material that was not on either: "Best of Braff" (US reissue) or "Ruby Braff Omnibus" (earlier Japanese reissue)?

thanks in advance

I ordered a bunch of these from Dusty Groove, they emailed me that they had arrived on Friday.

I tried immediately when they notified me (to get the 2 Stu Williamson albums), but they were both already sold out.

I said "screw this" & got them elsewhere.

[jazzbo]

I may have beat you to them Larry, sorry. . . . I spent too much but I got all the ones I wanted.

[bakeostrin]

How many of these new ones have bonus cuts; Stu Williamsons are nice, but were already reissued in Japan TOCJ (bought one of them on this forum years ago from J.A.W.--thanks again).

[jazzbo]

Very few. The Waldron has both mono and stereo. There are a few others but for the most part these are straight lp or 10" reissues.

Is there a list somewhere of what's available in Japan?

I registered at hmv.co.jp and the site would not let me place an order. I got stuck at the first stage, selecting a shipping address. Could it be the CDSOL-XXXX item I selected could not be shipped to my country of residence? I'm a bit puzzled and have already deleted the account I created earlier today.

[David Ayers]

Don't know - I go there for information but rarely for orders....

[etherbored]

very strange; hmv (jp) doesn't seem to ship to netherlands...

[David Ayers]

Not at all? Really? Hm. But they let you create an account!

[etherbored]

maybe i missed it, but tell me if you see netherlands on this page of countries shipped to: http://www.hmv.co.jp/help/006000008/

I see it.....half way down the right-hand column for "Europe"....

[etherbored]

blimey!

[erwbol]

I tried to place another order without registration this time and after entering my details it sent me back to their home page instead of taking me to the second step.

Perhaps it's my browser, Chrome.

Edit: Same shit with Safari.

i don't see why you need some big box store like hmv, anyway. get creative and find another shop owner willing to do business overseas. they're out there.

Bethlehem has been low on my radar until now. I only had the Herbie Nichols album (1994 CD). The Mingus albums I'd ignored so far. Recently I got myself the Japanese remasters of Mal Waldron's Left Alone, Mingus' East Coasting, and Nichols' Love, Gloom, Cash, Love.

Now I'm wondering if there are any other worthwhile albums or even minor classics being reissued I'm not aware of. Any recommendations?

The Dexter Gordon, the Stan Levey with Dex, and the Howard McGhee come to mind. I especially like the Levey.

Booker Ervin – “The Book Cooks”

• Booker Little – “Booker Little and Friend”

• Charles Mingus – “The Jazz Experiments of Charles Mingus”

Yep, agree with all of those
