The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 A few albums were delivered while my connection's been down. The Soul Stirrers - He's my rock: the early sides - P-Vine 2 CD set of their complete recordings from 1939 - 1948. Mostly their Aladdin material but a dozen earlier sides, too. Really great stuff! Only disappointment is that the sleeve notes are in Japanese. Though they print the words of all 55 songs in English Georgia Mass Choir - Tell it - Savoy The latest album (issued last year) from the GMC - a great session, with the incredible Dorothy Norwood guesting and still belting it out like a good 'un! Buika - Nina de fuego - DRO Atlantic Oh, entrancing! It will take me a long time to absorb everything in this CD. I was prepared for it to be not as good as her earlier albums, but it's a joy!

Only disappointment is that the sleeve notes are in Japanese. Though they print the words of all 55 songs in English MG Only disappointment for me with this one is that they left off "Pearl Harbor Parts 1&2" and "Why I Like Roosevelt Parts 1&2" - probably because they concern secular topics, and possibly because Willie Eason sings lead and plays Hawaiian steel guitar on them. Leaving them off annoyed me because I figured I could get rid of my old Imperial LP from the 70's. Still have it because of those tracks. Quote

But there was certainly not enough time to get those into the two discs - they're 77:46 and 78:08. A three disc set would have cost a hell of a lot more. MG Quote
BillF Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Dizzy Gillespie w. Sonny Rollins & Sonny Stitt: Duets (Verve) Clarence Williams: The Columbia Recordings Volume 2 - Whoop It Up (Frog) Admirable breadth of taste! Quote
paul secor Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Dizzy Gillespie w. Sonny Rollins & Sonny Stitt: Duets (Verve) Clarence Williams: The Columbia Recordings Volume 2 - Whoop It Up (Frog) Admirable breadth of taste! Big difference in musical styles in the two recordings, but if you're looking at time, only 26 years separate the last of the Williams recordings and the Gillespie. Hard to believe that music changed so quickly. Quote

Big difference in musical styles in the two recordings, but if you're looking at time, only 26 years separate the last of the Williams recordings and the Gillespie. Hard to believe that music changed so quickly. Yes. Come to think of it, the latest Jimmy Yancey and earliest Bill Evans in my collection are separated by only five or six years! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 Had a trip into Cardiff today and picked up I already had the first 6 cuts on the original cobbled-together LP issues, but I must say this edition sounds fantastic! MG Quote
AndrewHill Posted June 9, 2008 Report Posted June 9, 2008 I had to take my niece to a dentist's appointment and I had an hour to kill, so I went to this very commercial looking DVD/CD used store (kinda like CD Warehouse, but bigger) and I was absolutely astonished with what they had. I couldn't buy a lot of it because this place was charging collector's prices but here's some of the stuff I passed up, because I can't take a second mortgage out on my house : Barry Altschal-You Can't Name Your Own Tune-32 Jazz: $33.99 Walt Dickerson-Impressions of a Patch of Blue-VEE: $52.99 Ed Thigpin-Out of the Storm-VEE-$36.99 Clifford Jordon-Cliff Craft-BN Conn-$47.99 Art Blakey-Hard Drive-Bethlehem/Avenue Jazz-$27.99 Nevertheless, I still ended up blowing $100 Here's what I could afford: Bob Brookmeyer-Traditionalism Revisited-PJ WCC Air-Live Air-Black Saint Sun Ra-The Futuristic Sounds of Sun Ra-Savoy Sun Ra-Holiday for Soul Dance-Evidence Sun Ra-Monorails and Satellites-Evidence Sun Ra-My Brother the Wind Volume II-Evidence Sun Ra-Sound of Joy-Delmark Quote

AndrewHill Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 So I went to this very commercial looking DVD/CD used store (kinda like CD Warehouse, but bigger) Well after some quick researh on-line, I just found out that 'Buybacks' is a store under the CD Warehouse umbrella, which explains the inflated collector's prices. I should've known Quote
WorldB3 Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 (edited) After reading how MoFi handled the remaster on this in the last issue of Jazz Times I thought I would give it a try. Edited June 11, 2008 by WorldB3 Quote
