T.D. Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Thanks for that info. Seems like good news. I recently bought some classical box sets on the Ricercar label (part of outthere) and got the impression of a high-class operation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pim Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Unfortunate they didnt change the packaging. Two of my discs (including Taylor’s One Too Many Salty) are damaged. What mostly happens with this kind of packaging is that some dust or something harder gets stuck inside the cardboard. Then, when shoving your cd in, a large scratch is made and you’re cd is unplayable. Despite checking the same happened to one of my ECM touchstones (same kind of packing. The Japanese mini LP’s got a nice jacket for the cd to prevent from such things to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I think it is great stuff, to get a Chance to hear all those masters when they did Europe. Actually it seems that Graz in Austria was quite open for then Avantgarde jazz, they had a string of great concerts in the 60´s. Jimmy Giuffree, here John Coltrane, and on an obscure italian LP Max Roach and Sonny Rollins in Graz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterioso Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 The Giuffre "Graz concert received the first authorized release permission by Juanita Giuffre, Carol Goss-Bley and Steve Swallow." The Coltrane recording was licensed from ORF. Looks all pretty legit to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Bird reissues: Vol 1.: Selected Dial Recordings & Vol 2.: Selected Savoy Recordings. Most members here, I'm guessing, already have these recordings, but I bet the sound is good. Peter Pfister has done a remarkable job with the Ayler recordings, the Coltrane, and the Giuffre. I wonder what's next in "ezz-thetics" list. What else might be "revisited"?

And for people who don't have this music, this is where I'd point them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coltrane and Giuffre were mastered from the original ORF recordings, not sure about Aylers but there is a mention that the release is authorized by his estate, perhaps there was some agreement with ESP Disk regarding source material for CD mastering. For Parker Savoy / Dial stuff the mastering source is in all probability a previously commercially released CD - what sort of ""remarkable" sound improvement can one expect?

Late Posted September 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 The Ayler appears to be a two-disc reissue of: I never got around to picking up the Stockholm/Berlin set, so it's nice that it'll be available once again. I also have Yasmina, but not Blasé, so the Shepp too is a welcome reissue. I hope that Werner keeps digging through the hat archive as well as other labels. If ezz-thetics essentially becomes a reissue label, I'm for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
