Victor Christensen Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 I have a list from CDJapan that says that on February the fourth will East Wind reissue in DSD Remastering more or less their whole catalog, many good ones in there, especially for me quite a few with Hank Jones (The Great Jazz Trio), they are pretty cheap 1000 Yen a piece.

dougcrates Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Here is the East Wind reissue site from Universal Japan: http://www.universal-music.co.jp/jazz/eastwind1000/ Quote
Quasimado Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 Interesting they are reissuing Lennie Tristano's "Descent into the Maelstrom" on 2/4. This has just been released on Tristano's Jazz Records (JR14CD) "By Licence Agreement with East Wind Music Ltd. Co. Japan". Q Quote
Late Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 The Andrew Hill titles (solo, trio, and quartet) are not to be missed. They haven't been reissued for some time now. The solo and trio outings are especially fine. Quote
soulpope Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 This one is really great! Excellent indeed.... Quote

Peter Friedman Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 Though I don't read Japanese, I was able to identify some of the East Wind reissues as I have them on Earlier Japanese CD releases. These are all things I definitely recommend along with the Cedar Walton at Pit Inn which is great. Art Farmer Quartet with Cedar, Sam Jones and Billy Higgins - To Duke With Love and also The Summer Knows. Art Farmer Quintet Live at Boomers Vol. 1 and Vol.2 with Clifford Jordan, Cedar, Sam & Billy H. Pentagon with Clifford Jordan , Cedar, Sam, Billy Sam Jones - Seven Minds with Cedar, Billy, and a string quartet on a couple of tracks There may well be others I was unable to identify. Quote
jazzbo Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 I ordered one with Sam Morrison as a sideman and his as a leader. Quote

If you are interested in the Kikuchi album then I would also recommend "out of chaos" by Kosuke Mine which is virtually the same band. I have both the LPs and they're great. Quote
mikeweil Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) The Sam Jones album is really nice, one of the most listenable jazz LPs with strings I know. Almost forgot I have this ... I'm curious about the Oliver Nelson - must be one of his last dates before he passed. Anyone heard this? p.s. That album was his last session ... Edited January 24, 2015 by mikeweil Quote

I'm curious about the Oliver Nelson - must be one of his last dates before he passed. Anyone heard this? although Nelson assembling a sort of "West Coast All Star" ensemble for this date, this recording didn`t leave a memorable impression with me - but probably of worth for Oliver Nelson aficionados....

sidewinder Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) On vinyl many of these were originally issued 'direct cut' and always sounded particularly great sonically, to my ears. Much better pressings than the US Inner City releases of these titles. The Art Farmers and the Cedar Waltons can be recommended without reservation. As can the Clifford Jordan/Cedar Walton 'The Pentagon'. I have that Oliver Nelson on vinyl. Will have to dig it out again. Edited January 24, 2015 by sidewinder Quote

JSngry Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 Regarding the Oliver Nelson side, I've long had an affection for it (it was released here on Inner City back in the day, as many of these things were). For no specific reason, really, other than maybe that Bobby Bryant is heard to lengthy benefit, and Oliver's charts are seriously biting in a way that much of his later L.A. work wasn't, as is the whole gig,really. Everybody came to play, and they were given good things to play, so...win-win. Perhaps best/most effectively heard with an awareness of the times and the career arc in full mind? Probably not "essential" if you're not an at least really interested-in-the-whole-story Nelson-ite, but I am, so there you go. Quote
JSngry Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 Oh wow, I just noticed that Reggie Lucas' Survival Themes is in there...that's a really interesting piece of the 70s Miles puzzle that is pretty much overlooked both now and then, at least in my experience. Quote

RiRiIII Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I had no idea about this label. These Jones/Carter/Williams Trio CDs seem very intriguing and from what I read especially their Village Vanguard ones are very special. Can you confirm? http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/person/271317 Quote

Anyone familiar with that Hubert Eaves title? What are the Hino titles like? Jim, I also am a fan of that Oliver Nelson date. Can you describe the Reggie Lucas in more detail? Quote
mikeweil Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) JPC in Germany has them listed - I pre-ordered the Nelson. Gave the Sam Jones a spin this morning - very nice, as I said. The string quartet is only on half of the tracks and used very tastefully, as a coloration of the arrangements - really a trio album with Jones as the main soloist. I remember that I tried to get a copy of every new Sam Jones release as a leader in the 1970's and never was disappointed. Glad I saw him live with Walton, Higgins, and Bob Berg back then - what a beautiful bass tone! I second the questions about the Lucas and Eaves albums! Edited January 25, 2015 by mikeweil Quote

mjzee Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 As I recall from back in the day, the Reggie Lucas and Hubert Eaves titles were a jazz-rock/funky-disco blend that wasn't very distinctive. Certainly nothing like Miles; more like Stanley Clarke wannabes. Quote
Eric Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I ordered one with Sam Morrison as a sideman and his as a leader. I know nothing of him, other than reading that he played with Miles in 1975. What is Dune like? Quote
