Jazz peeps: Whgaty do you know about the label Polydor It looks like with my skim research on this board, that no thread exists on this label...tell me more. I understand that it seems that Germany and Britian in the early part of the century created Polydor. I want to know in the 60's why they went out jazz, and signed Marion Brown and John McLaughlin among others. Weren't they initally associated with classical, in collaboration with maybe Phillips? What you guys know about Polydor and their jazz program?

Debut, legit, Japanese mini-lp/cd (plus OBI 😊) I picked up at Reckless Records in Chicago, that will replace my current, I don't know where it came from copy: Always thought that looked like Slash's head coming out of that lady's horn 🫠 I like these kind of stories! Get it. Can't tell you how many times I've said "no fucking way!!!" out loud in a record store when I would come across something totally unexpected or a complete surprise. Dizzy Reece's Blues in Trinity Conn edition is one of those outbursts of late.

Never crossed it, and always been curious: how is it and who is playing on it; that is, who are the friends and who are the neighbors on 131 Prince Street?🤷♂️

How's the sound? Guessing '52 not so great...if listenable to very good, I'm in!

Well, being a CD hype sticker aficionado myself, and well-versed on this topic, what you should do, is you carefully remove the shrinkwrap from the CD product; next, arm yourself with pricision-like scissors and then cut around the shrinkwrap involving said hype sticker. Lastly, insert into CD booklet, and vaula, you have your hype sticker, safe and sound.

Sweets! I have a story about this set. I was at a CD bargain basement sort of a place somewhere (San Antonio?) in 2010 or so on vacation and the Sweets 2 CD elite set was there used for $30, but the discs were shabby, but they had a CD cleaning machine, so while cleaning them, the dude went berserk on the second disc and scratched it out and told me he couldn’t sell it to me because of the damage; he said it's unsellable and that he had to throw the set away. I said, well I'll just wait until you close and when throw it out in the trash, I’ll root for it myself. Long story short, he called the manager, and she gave the wave to gift it to me, avoiding me rooting through their trash. Side note, the dude polishing the second CD did fuck it up, but it mostly plays. I had every intension to buy the set, but I did wind up getting the set for FREE!!

Wowwww! Everything, everybody said here about this record is on par. Picked up the Japenese mini-lp Freedom edition at Reckless Records when I was in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. Sounds great on my system.

Wow, what a provocative sleeve, given the time period!

What live music are you going to see tonight?

311's original guitarist was arrested for streaking and the band found it pretty amusing and changed their name to three-eleven. Tonight, we are going to Severence Hall to see The Cleveland Orchestra perform Mozart's Don Giovanni and Third Violin Concerto No. 3, juxtaposed with Richard Strauss' Syphony in F minor. Randall Goosby, Violin, Conductor is Marie Jacquot -

311 is police code in Omaha, Nebraska for "indecent exposure". -
👍 One of my favorite GG's.

What rock music are you listening to? Non-Jazz, Non-Classical.
Holy Ghost replied to EKE BBB's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Amazing Tony and Geezer allowed Bill Ward back in the fold to drum too! That alone is worth the price of admission. Original Sabbath line up, including Bill Ward! Bill Ward hasn't been "allowed" to play with them for the subsequent reunion tours for decades. He sounds just as crisp as ever in the War Pigs clip I watched on Youtube; one of my favorite rock drummers. -
Finally, I have 12 Connoisseur OBI's; can I send them in and get my BN watch now?

Chet Baker - Five From '65: The Quintet Summer Sessions
Holy Ghost replied to mjzee's topic in Re-issues
So no reproductions in a cd format, with no original artwork ( which is really good) shame, skip. -
Let's just do it: Bobby H is amazing! Right now, still grooving to a long lost conniousseur goody, which I got back last week at Recklass in Chicago:

@HutchFan, Ever since I upgraded Total Eclipse at Reckless in Chicago a week ago, been going back and enjoying Hutch's BN catalogue up to 1971. Now playing:

Big thumbs up. So glad to have it along with anything with Eric Dolphy. On the Bill Barron wish list. Never seen this one, but grabbed a couple on a spree in a wide Half Price like store in Virginia: Not earth-shattering, but very, very nice.

My favorite Monk Columbia.
