Chronological Classics


Swinging Swede

Recommended Posts

I stopped regularly reading and re-reading the liner notes, but I like having proper documentation, mainly, and I live with the illusion that lossless files burned to CDR actually do sound better to my very ears than MP3s from my analogically hooked up MP3-player...

We should start a thread listing all discographical resources.

jazzdisco.org is a great place to start, though they seem to concentrate on bebop & afterwards: http://www.jazzdisco.org/

Here's a great Duke Ellington discography: http://www.depanorama.net/

Sidney Bechet: http://www.sidneybechet.org/sbr.html

Monk: http://www.howardm.net/tsmonk/tsmonk2.php

Free Jazz Research (Ed Blackwell, Pharaoh Sanders, more): http://www.mindspring.com/~scala/

Lotsa stuff here: http://www.rainerjazz.com/discogr.htm

ECM artists: http://mysite.verizon.net/vze8f4kf/music.htm

Many other leads here: http://members.tripod.com/go54321/jazz.html

These may be worth a thread of their own in the Discography forum. Just a suggestion.

I've a hunch this auction (or rather its selling price) is a bogus auction. Look at how those two final bidderrs raised each other briefly in a flash and then left it at that. And one of them with just ONE single feedback. If a newbie comes in at an auction out of the blue and bids sky-high way before the end I smell a BIG FAT rat!!

The CDs are rapidly running out even at the legit sites. I live in a country where I cannot download legit MP3s from Amazon. So my only option left is unauthorized downloading. Does anybody know a site where I can find the Duke Ellington albums to download?

Have you tried eMusic.com? Chronological Classics and the nearly identical Complete Jazz Series are available there (in most countries)

Search as I might, I could only find 16 of the 45 Duke Ellington Classics albums. The search function isn't too good, though. Do you know where I can find the Classics albums? (Do they have them all?)
