Justin V Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I've been checking out Truth Revolution Records, the label run by the Curtis Brothers, pianist Zaccai and bassist Luques. The label has an extensive catalog of releases from vets and newcomers and a subscription service akin to Greenleaf's but with low monthly payment.

Justin V Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I was considering buying the Newman/Cohn/Green Mosaic Select but then found this. It has the two Newman albums from the Mosaic and two others. I have only one Newman album, so I am looking forward to hearing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) A bundle of Mosaics.. CD versions of the Complete Count Basie Studio Roulette and Maynard Fergusson Roulette boxes. I have LPs but really wanted these in CD format for ease of endless spinning and future streaming. Also Dinah Washington Roulette (which has eluded me).

djcavanagh Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 I’m almost too embarrassed to give the full list but I got the O’Day, Eldridge, Rich, Mulligan, Cherry, Shearing, Ventura/Phillips, Teagarden and Master Piano sets. Am on a major Verve kick at the minute so the timing was good from that perspective. Plus lots of time to listen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are in for some great listening there. The O’Day I don’t spin enough and will dig out (bought from Scott direct at one of his record show appearances). That was a very good run of Verve boxes that they did. Can’t think of one dud amongst them. Hope that the Stuff Smith on the list went to a good home !

I had been on the fence about this forever, but finally went for a used copy: I grew up in Evanston, IL (home of Bee Hive), so it's nostalgia in a sense. I never knew of the Neumann family, though.

HutchFan Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I've wanted this CD for a while, and yesterday I found it for a reasonable price on eBay. ... Patterson is excellent, and Booker Ervin's presence seals the deal. 5 hours ago, T.D. said: That's one I'd like to hear. Both of the two Marion Brown / Mal Waldron collaborations are fantastic. ... Nearly on par with Waldron's many outings with Steve Lacy. Different, of course. But that good! Edited May 9, 2020 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin V Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 I've been meaning to check out Popkin, Tabnik and Crothers for a long time, so I ordered these 2 downloads for $4.99 apiece from New Artists Records: The Tabnik is even a double album. If I decide to upgrade to hard copies at some point, the price was right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Some classical discs I've ordered lately: Hard to go wrong with Martinon in French repertoire. ... I know the "Organ" Symphony -- like everyone else. But none of the others. I already have (and like) Thomson's second volume of Bax Tone Poems. ... Always nice to fill a missing "Volume 1" gap when "Volume 2" is already on the shelf. Or am I the only person who thinks like that? I have a couple WTC recordings by pianists. None by harpsichordists. And Gilbert just passed recently ... More Sibelius from Vänskä. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKE BBB Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 Just bought this FSR CD, since it contains several sides by Don Byas not included in 'The Complete 1946-51 European small group recordings" on Definitive. Physical CD, which is not very usual here these days. Lately I have decided not to expand my CD collection and shelves unless it is absolutely necessary and conversely I am purchasing mp3 downloads... But this is one of those ocasions when it is absolutely necessary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard Tomlinson, but that band at that price was a no-brainer. Thanks for the recommendation though it cost me much more than you paid at the princely sum of $3.59.

I'm glad to hear that. That was the album that prompted the thread about lesser-known leaders with well-known sidemen. I posted some thoughts about it there. Let me know what you think. My two latest purchases are: This will almost certainly be one for the recommendation thread mentioned above, with a band of Mulgrew Miller, Ron Carter and Lewis Nash. The cheapest copy was an autographed one. That led me to search for autographed CDs on eBay. I picked this one up for $2.50 plus shipping: I really like the Hedges album I have, Live at Andy's. I'm not sure how well-known he was outside of the Milwaukee and Chicago scenes, but Hedges was a fine clarinetist worth remembering.

The cheapest copy was an autographed one. The lesser known leader thread is what prompted me to search for it and I enjoyed the Tomlinson disc. I've spun it twice and find his compositions and arrangements thoughtful and easy if that makes sense. For studying with Barry Harris, I didn't pick up on a heavy influence on his sound. Not sure how long the studying took place though. The Charles Owens is a Joy. I picked it up in Atlanta at a record shop while killing some time. I had read a review, probably on AAJ and when I saw it in the wild picked it up. You will enjoy it indeed. And It does fit in with the Lesser known leader thread.
