T.D. Posted April 21, 2019 Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 I don't usually go for multiple versions of big opera/vocal works, but this looks interesting enough to make an exception. Somewhat controversial recording with one voice per part and fast tempi. I like one voice per part in Renaissance polyphony, and clips sounded good, so giving it a shot.

mjazzg Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 finally overcame the "too much of a good thing" barrier... Also, I've been very impressed by the recent RareNoise releases featuring Rudd and this looked like an interesting mix of musicians reissue, purchased on reputation alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian issue by the looks of it. Purchased from the guys in Portobello, along with the 2nd Bird/Curtis and the Garrick ‘Shades’, which have been on my list for a while. Reputedly, Guy Warren’s later album on Regal Zonophone was better, however I’m not complaining ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where I saw it and purchased it. Love their stock selection but the bank balance doesn't I'm really looking forward to hearing the Warren - I've avoided listening to online samples. A game I play now and again so that the new purchase is fresh The Bird Curtis keep flying into view too but as of today not snaffled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The occasional mail order purchase will suffice, eased by no mail charge above £50. I had the Guy Warren on CDR but the damn thing no longer plays so delighted to see it on vinyl. A Lansdowne Series title which eludes me ! I see that it is advertised as a RSD release, presumably North America only as I didn’t see it in the RSD racks over here.

Justin V Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 I went into carpe diem mode at Princeton Record Exchange and grabbed several multi-disc sets: The Weston, Pendulum, Bechet and Matthews Mosaic Selects, Coltrane's 1961 Village Vanguard box, Fletcher Henderson's three-disc Columbia box and the two-disc Mulligan/Webster deluxe edition. I passed on several other sets having already exceeded my meager budget, but I also bought several other single discs, which I'll post later.

I note with this Guy Warren that the co-operation of the Warren Estate is credited, so maybe we will also see reissues of ‘Emergent Drums’ and ‘The African Soundz’.

T.D. Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Don't own a recording of this (though I've seen it live), for no good reason. Considered Krips and Mackerras, decided on Krips due to the stellar cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed - I happened to witness his first and last performance here in town, which also happened to be the first and last of the touring agent involved, who had to retire after back problems involving surgery. Several aspects of an era now gone. Yesterday these two arrived: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the same store but it must have been closed for 10 years. I was driving through town yesterday and it caught my eye and my first reaction was that it must be an old sign but it wasn’t. I went there today and, yup, same location and same owner. I think a lot of the stock was probably the same. He said to me, hey, I know you, you’re the jazz guy. I laughed. He said he wanted to reopen the store and the landlord offered him a good rent, cheaper than he was paying 10 years ago. Imagine that.
