Savoy has a lot of false starts etc. Dial hasn't .

Mosaic just put the details for their upcomming 9 CD The Complete Dial Modern Jazz Sessions (#260) http://www.mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=260-MD-CD Release date late October

Danish Ellingtonian Bjarne Busk who heard all of the stockpile said that there are still about 10 quality CD's that could be produced from the stockpile. Bjarne compiled the My People CD for Storyville.

Yes a great win. Maybe not riding the TdF didn't give him end of season fatigue a lot of riders suffer from and left him with enough energy to beat Tony Martin. I was impressed by fellow dutchman Tom Dumoulin the number 3 only 23 years of age.

The Jazz Crusaders set is gone.

I'm not sure about The Man I Love and Don't blame me. But I think Sirius (1966). Wich I don't have. Wrap your troubles in dreams (Capitol 2-3-45), Until the real thing comes along(Soul 7-11-58), Red beans (Coleman Hawkins With The Red Garland Trio 12-8-59), Trough for the night and Hawk eyes (Hawk Eyes 3-4-1959), I only have eyes for you (Keynote 31-1-44), It's the talk of the town (Capitol 9-3-45). Hope this helps you. Remco

I counted 55 tracks for Columbia/Okeh and 29 for Decca. Not sure how either will fill a set unless sideman sessions like Gulf Coast Seven or Original Jazz Hounds (both Columbia) are included.

Counting the tracks under Condon's name quickly I come to 131 tracks (alternates included). That would be 6 CD's The Bud Freeman sessions for Decca and Commodore add 49 tracks. That would make 8 Cd's in total.

Yes it's worth it.

I'll look further this weekend. Nice puzzle.

Provided we are talking about the same album: Listening to the samples on Amazon it seems to me an compilation album. "The midnight sun will never set" is from the Impulse Benny Carter album Further definitions. "I only have eyes for you" is the Keynote recording. "Hawk eyes" is from the Prestige album Hawk Eyes. I didn't go further checking. Remco

Thanks everybody

The Duke Ellington single 'The Cosmic Scene' is now oop

I don't claim to have absolute knowlege about this subject but here are my observations: In the early years of the recording industry Victor would re-record a performance by the same artist when a master began to wear. Even when multiple takes were originaly recorded. Presumably at that time they didn't keep takes that were not issued. See Allen Suttons' Cakewalks, rags and novelties. Later Victor recorded 4 takes of every tune one was used for issue. A second one kept, two were scrapped before test pressings were made. Those second ones were issued later in the 1930's or the LP era. See the discographical section in Don Rayno's biography of Paul Whiteman. There a more 1920's/1930's Victor alternate takes by Duke Ellington than from the 1940's. Columbia recorded and kept many Benny Goodman takes in the 1940's. A lot are still around. See the D. Russel Connor/David Jessup Benny Goodman disco's. Though take letters indicate offten more than one take there are very few alternate takes by Bix, Tram or Louis on Okeh. There are a few Brunswick alternate Red Nichols takes that were issued in Canada only. See the Jazz Oracle booklet with the 3 Red Nichols 3CD sets. I don't remember were I read it but sometimes diffrent takes were issued on East and West of the Rockies. The best I can say after a short survey of multiple takes is that there is no general rule for the whole of the recording industry. It differs from label to label and from period to period.

That's my understanding as well. I don't see why a 4:11 performance should be considered remarkable. I don't think it is about editing but about consecutive recordings of the same composition before a satisfactory take was achieved.

Tom Lord's Online Disco has this as: 12 Compositions, Live at Yoshi's Oakland (July 1993).

I saw part of this film once on TV. I don't remember wich channel. Netherlands, Belgium or BBC. Didn't wach it till the end. IIRC I remember him walking through the snow with his trumpet. This is on youtube: Amazon.com has it on DVD and the Lord on line disco lists a soundtrack LP

Now it's gone again,

The Dizzy Gillespie small groups sessions set has gone.

You seem to have missed this e-mail from Mosaic: While we try to always give our customers a reasonable lead time when a set is going out of print, sometimes circumstances beyond our control force us to delete sets on short notice. During the recent sale of EMI Music, pieces of the company were sold to Warner Bros. rather than Universal Music. As a result, we lost the rights to manufacture more of our Sarah Vaughan (Roulette) and Django Reinhardt (EMI France) sets. The supplies we have on both sets are very low and will only be available for a short time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

The Bunny Berigan set made a comeback on Last Chance

Your data already found it's way into the Lord disco.
