    And don't forget that sweet white stingray he was driving around LA in

    I bought them all but the Silver. At the time, the "Horace Silver Trilogy" never interested me. Think I'm still not intrested, but a "gutsy" release? Completely agree.

    Like these stickers have always been a nuisance to remove; why couldn't the factory put these stickers on the outside of the CD case on the shrinkwrap? Some removed easily, but most left a string of sticky residue on the front and back, and that is if they nicely peeled off all the way. Most stickers splintered into several seperate pieces leaving more sitcky residue.

    Yeppers! And Michael Cuscuna hurried and rushed to get the very rare, special material out before the Connies and RVG's came to an end.

    Miss this series along with the RVG's, and Deep Grooves. Era's that have ended, but wow, the material they brought back to life!

    The best Andrew Hill record of all time in my opinion. Period. For my wife,

    Makes sense. Columbia Pictures makes sense as Clive Davis was an excutive at CBS at the time (I don't know about the movies) and get the Columbia connection, but Novus I thought was RCA's 'advant garde' wing, kinda like 'Virgin Venture' was Virgin's. Nice insight, this is a interesting story, thank you all for your imput.

    That first sleeve is sick! Are those all people in that photo? Is that the orignal Freedom jacket?
  10. Holy Ghost
    This sleeve is badder-asser than the one I have. Murky it may be, but I love detective stories, and this one is a goodin'. Arista Novus? Wasn't that part of RCA or did Arista own RCA by then?

    Lols, well yeah, the storm looked a whole lot nastier in the first Freedom sleeve, then the second Arista/Freedom sleeve. Cecil photo looks right for the time.

    But wasn't the Cowell originally a Polydor release? Then got a "Black Lion/Freedom" redo? Isn't this the original sleeve as it gets? Right, I keep on overlooking your point, Arista. Later Freedoms, right, and that art direction was consistent. Clive Davis ran Arista then, right? Makes sense now.

    Okay, why does the Shepp set look so different from the Hill jacket, Spiral? Like the Freedoms have a style, but the Shepp's don't look like the typical Freedoms. LIke the Hill does look like a typical Freedom: What's up with the weird inconsistencies? Like the Hemphill: Is this an original Freedom release? Love the music. I know that Dogan AD is not, is this another oddity Alan Bates label pick up?
  15. Holy Ghost
    That means that Freedom was an active label not just reissuing sessions?
