Pim Posted November 10 Report Share Posted November 10 (edited) https://store.ververecords.com/pages/verve-record-club Probably no potential subscribers around here but wanted to share for those interested anyway. Personally I would never subscribe to such a series as I am pretty picky in what I want to buy and what not. 45 dollars a month is a lot for not being sure you're getting something you like. In these cases it's probably more economic to buy one overpriced copy of the LP you'd really like on Discogs than subscribing ending up with stuff youre not interested in.

mikeweil Posted November 10 Report Share Posted November 10 A vinyl club - we had this decades ago. Was nice to build your first collection. Probably not for older collectors with large amounts of records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Harley told me on FB that they had received requests for a subscription service so go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted Wednesday at 08:05 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 08:05 AM Somehow in my youth Verve records most of them were japanese reissues, very expensive, but I didn´t buy so many of them since Norman Granz´ tastes where some very very straight ahead jazz, and very little originals of the recording artists. So it was mostly a mainstream label, very good recordings sound, but sometimes too straight ahead rhythm sections for my taste. I was quite astonished to have later a Jackie McLean Birdsongs recording on Verve. Verve at the time when Jackie McLean was most creative and active, would not have recorded him......

sidewinder Posted Wednesday at 10:14 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 10:14 AM (edited) I bought quite a few Verve UK reissues with my meagre pocket money in the mid 70s. They were pressed by Polygram I think, in very good sound. Some good doubles by the likes of Diz, Stitt, Getz and JJ plus Oscar P. Also some nice JATP reissues (now superceded by the Mosaic).
