Stan C Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 The upcoming 2005 Connoisseurs that are possibly coming out look great. The Ike Quebec 45's are especially welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Unfortunately, the two Cox lps won't fit on one cd. More than just a few seconds more like three or four minutes I believe. I don't have them at hand right now, but I remember transferring them from tape at one point and it wasn't even close to fitting. . .

Rooster_Ties Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I thought they were a lot closer to 80 minutes, but maybe I'm remembering my burns of "Dance With Death" and the "One For One" LP that wasn't on the Hill Mosaic. I know those both fit on one CDR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmirBagachelles Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I would like to say thanks Kevin. The only way the list of prospects could be improved for me would be to continue with the reissuance of the very strong, underappreciated Sam Rivers catalog. Thanks!

jazzbo Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Maybe it isn't three or four minutes, but you'd have to shorten or delete a track to make them both fit, and I wouldn't even want to consider that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'm still pining for the Tyrone Washington, including a good bit of the train-wreck (hopefully everything but the track with the vocal gyrations, or so I've heard them described). But all in good time, all in good time. I didn't think we'd see the Tyrone this time around necessarily anyway. My goal is either the 2006 or 2007 batch of Conns. Anything after that, and I'll start getting jumpy about it. Can't be Passing Ships and the Hill Select every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'm glad to see the Ike Quebec 45s up for release - that Mosaic has always eluded me, always seem to be outbid on it. One less Mosaic to tick off the list.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel A Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Just for clarity's sake: would that Booker Ervin date be the "Back from the Gig"/"In a Capricornian Way" session? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) Just for clarity's sake: would that Booker Ervin date be the "Back from the Gig"/"In a Capricornian Way" session? Yup, far as I know. Wonder what they'll call it?? Certainly not "Back From The Gig", or one would at least hope not.

sjarrell Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Hey Kevin- I just did the math: Consequence and High Frequency will fit on one disc. Is there a chance MC is considering this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 (edited) Am I hearing the words 'Back From The Gig' in reference to the 1968 Booker Ervin session with Woody Shaw? Am I going to have to go hunt down a copy of Blood On The Fields? Bertrand. Edited March 19, 2005 by bertrand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Hey Kevin- I just did the math: Consequence and High Frequency will fit on one disc. Is there a chance MC is considering this? Probably a pretty good idea. Since I already own the McLean Mosaic, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't buy a Conn with just Consequence on it. But if it included all the High Frequency tracks too, I'd certainly give it some thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Thanks for putting the Quebec bug in MC's ear, Kevin! That's terrific news!!!!! Sandy, I think you need to take the credit for this. Wasn't it your idea originally? Seem like great titles. I've never heard Where is Brooklyn so this will be my chance. Good titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Another great idea someday would be reissuing the Quebec-Hardee Mosaic. Not that easy to come by in compact disc and a truly great Mosaic. Only three cds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Another great idea someday would be reissuing the Quebec-Hardee Mosaic. Not that easy to come by in compact disc and a truly great Mosaic. Only three cds. This material is in print on a couple of labels out of the EU (where the copyright has run out). There isn't a whole lot of sales potential with them when these cheap copies are floating around. Sales would be tough. Who would pay $35-45 for a three CD set when you can get most of it for about $25 from Proper, Definitive, et al? Kevin PS. I E-mailed Michael Cuscuna about the "Consequence/High Frequency" two-fer idea. PPS. A good friend of mine tells me that his two CDs of Kenny Cox material (complete) only clocks in at 80:10. An early fade and it should all fit. It's either that or cut a track. Any votes for the track to cut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 (this thread made me decide to come out of hibernation and post here) I'm looking forward to some of these new Connoisseurs. I assume Ron McMaster will remaster them, and I really hope they will sound better than some of his more recent, i.e. 2000-2004 work, like for instance his Lou Donaldson Mosaic remastering; Scott Wenzel (Mosaic) told me that according to Michael Cuscuna mr McMaster didn't use compression, but that's exactly how this set sounds: compressed/very, very loud and aggressive, and no-noised; it makes my ears bleed...

jazzbo Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Someone must have disconnected one of the tracks before compiling your cdr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
