Head Man Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 Seems that Ace have remastered this and will be re-issuing its soon. http://acerecords.co.uk/the-loud-minority I wonder if this means that they'll be re-issuing others from the Mainstream box of goodies? Quote
jazzbo Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 That would be great! I'd love to see the Paul Jeffrey titles reissued. Quote
felser Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 Hoping for those Harold Land titles with Bobby Hutcherson. Quote
JSngry Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 Is there any indication that Ace/BGP is looking at the Mainstream catalog in general, or are they targeting this album in particular because of it's underground/DJ/cratedigger appeal? Quote

danasgoodstuff Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 I used the Loud Minority for a jazz 'n poetry mix tape I made for my brother once, I ended up concluding that it was all pretty bad poetry, except for the Wm. Blake that Mike Westbrook set to music, that's damn good poetry! Quote
Head Man Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Posted February 24, 2014 It's out today......... http://acerecords.co.uk/the-loud-minority Quote
soulpope Posted March 30, 2014 Report Posted March 30, 2014 Hal Galper "Inner Journey" (Mainstream) 1973 - would love to see this being reissued (by ACE)........ Quote

Send them an e-mail and suggest it.... @Head Man : common thoughts ;-)...actually I`ve posted this here while hoping other interested Forum Members would also write to ACE http://acerecords.co.uk/pages/contact and inquire reg. subject reissue establishing sort of broader demand. Of course I already did so and also suggested this in another german language Jazz Forum today in the morning....based on some experiences in the Soul area I do know that ACE (also) takes in account collector`s perspective Edited March 30, 2014 by soulpope Quote
king ubu Posted March 31, 2014 Report Posted March 31, 2014 They should also do the fabulous "Ellerine" by Ellerine Harding, while they're at it - plenty of goodies in the Mainstream catalogue! Quote

Harold Land`s "Damisi" comes to my mind.......and of course "Another Shade of Blue"..... Edited April 1, 2014 by soulpope Quote
king ubu Posted April 1, 2014 Report Posted April 1, 2014 funny new avatar btw, yesterday I finally ordered the Foster, this thread being back on top reminded me of it Quote
soulpope Posted April 1, 2014 Report Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) funny new avatar btw, yesterday I finally ordered the Foster, this thread being back on top reminded me of it Thnx pal for posting the Marshmellow cover earlier.....it`s an as good as it gets Bud Powell pic and I simply HAD to use it Me being definitely interested on your view regarding Foster`s "Loud Minority" though......

Peter Friedman Posted April 5, 2014 Report Posted April 5, 2014 Funny, but the Mainstream label was not one that released many recordings that I liked. The Sonny Red and the Clark Terry/ Bob Brookmeyer were the most interesting to me. They also reissued on CD some ealy material by Getz, Quinichette and other tenor players that I am glad to have. The things by Blue Mitchell, Hal Galper, Frank Foster, Harold Land and others were not particularly good examples of their playing in my opinion. Quote
felser Posted April 5, 2014 Report Posted April 5, 2014 The first two Buddy Terry sets were great, and I disagree about the Harold Land's I thought they were wonderful. But it was a strange label for sure. Quote

felser Posted April 5, 2014 Report Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) And here are the two Buddy Terry's. (He did a third for the label, 'Lean on Him', but it was very different than these two, a gospel album). There are also a number of stray tracks that came out on Mainstream sampler CD's that would make great bonus tracks. Edited April 5, 2014 by felser Quote
dougcrates Posted April 8, 2014 Report Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Ace Records' Boplicity label is reissuing Harold Land's Choma (Burn). No release date given and there is no link on Amazon UK yet. Wardell Gray's Way Out Wardell and Louis Armstrong's And His Friends are forthcoming as well: http://acerecords.co.uk/choma-burn http://acerecords.co.uk/way-out-wardell http://acerecords.co.uk/louis-armstrong-and-his-friends Edited April 8, 2014 by dougcrates Quote

PS and with alice clarke "the complete studio recordings 1968-1972" a third different approach from ACE to use mainstream`s original coverart....... Update as of April 9th : either yesterday me being weary eyed or simply unable to realize facts, but the cover design seems rather in line with the recent frank foster "loud minority" reissue - profound apology from my side !!

Jay Posted January 9, 2015 Report Posted January 9, 2015 Bringing this one back up - can anyone comment on the sound of the Loud Minority release? Curious for that one, as well as to whether I should track down their issue of Self-Determination Music when that comes out, as well as some of the Leon Thomas releases. Quote
Brad Posted January 9, 2015 Report Posted January 9, 2015 Anyone have any comments on the Wardell release. Quote
