Jim Alfredson Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Isn't this stuff divided up on various CDs? I can't recall. I have this in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjarrell Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Isn't this stuff divided up on various CDs? I can't recall. I have this in any case. The Cherokee stuff is on the pre-RVG House Party (or the Sermon, one or the other). The LD stuff has never been available on CD in the US.

Chuck Nessa Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 The LD stuff has never been available on CD in the US. Nor on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul Stream Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Isn't this stuff divided up on various CDs? I can't recall. I have this in any case. The Cherokee stuff is on the pre-RVG House Party (or the Sermon, one or the other). The LD stuff has never been available on CD in the US. This is a different version of Cherokee than was issued on the old CD. That is from the Mosaic 57 sessions stuff. The "Cherokee" TOCJ is different material. Arguabley better imho, athough it's really splitting hairs when it comes to this sort of greatness. Jimmy's burning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the Mosaic 57 set is made up of Date w/ Jimmy Smith 1 & 2, Jimmy Smith at the Organ 1 & 2, and The Sound of Jimmy Smith. So the Houseparty/Sermon stuff isn't on there. Who's the band and what's the date on the Japanese Cherokee disc? Now I'm curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Shearn Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 SS, "Cherokee" was recorded July 3rd '57, with a bonus track, "Somebody Loves Me", a leftover from the May 8, 1957 "Plays Pretty Just For You" session. The band is JOS, Eddie McFadden and Donald Bailey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkboughtlunch Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Isn't this Smith + LD date one of the first sessions RVG recorded in stereo? How's the sound quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound sucks. Ignore it. I've no complaints about the LP. But so long as I can hear something, I can't be asked to be too critical about the sound.

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 My copy (and "Cherokee") just turned up. Thanks to all. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFS Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Wow, that HMV really is fast...my copy came in a matter of days. The sound doesn't seem bad to my ears. There are some clicks at the end of track #6, but it is at least after the music stops. Is it the tape or in the studio? This is a good session and well worth picking up. What are the other Bluse Note Works that are being re-issued, anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 The two together cost me 21.79 GB pounds, incl post, which is about half what you normally have to pay for Japanese CDs over here. (Something in the region of $20 each, I guess.) I think it's not too bad. Both albums are really worth the money. The trouble is, when you go onto the HMV site, you'll find a load of other JOS albums you haven't got (That's why I got two, rather than just the one I'd intended to buy.)

Saint Vitus Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 The last Jimmy Smith + LD CD offered on eBay went for close to 50 dollars. I passed on it initially because everyone I talked to told me the session was a dog ... Now I'll get to determine myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Shearn Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 I won it on ebay for $14. The seller says the front cover of the CD is in bad shape, and the CD label has an imprint from the insert but that the disc plays fine. I just want the session! Should be here soon. I can just use a HQ scan of the front cover anyway and put that in if the cover is too dogged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you might get a couple of bidders going nuts bidding against each other on emotion. When we decide to list something, it goes for nothing.

Bluesman Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Somebody paid $50 for a second hand CD you can buy new for $14???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Shearn Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 back to the music. Its a nice session, "Cha Cha J" is definitely a JOS oddity. the piano solo reminds me of a nervous chihuahua or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
