Hardbopjazz Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 There has to be many gems in the vaults.We're excited to announce the launch of Jazz at Lincoln Center's newest initiative: Blue Engine Records. As today's New York Times article attests, this record label has been a long time coming. It started as an idea way back when Jazz at Lincoln Center came steaming out of the station with our first concerts some 28 years ago.Blue Engine helps us fulfill an integral part of our mission: entertaining, enriching and expanding a global community for jazz. Blue Engine’s albums will allow jazz fans worldwide to enjoy music—wherever they are and whenever they want—from Jazz at Lincoln Center’s vast archive of live and studio recordings.

Hardbopjazz Posted July 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Straight to the used bins, I'm thinking.Really? There have been many winderful concerts over the years at JALC that I've seen. For example, Ahmad Jamal Quartet. Chick Corea Trio. The music of Tadd Dameron with Charlie Rouse and Tommy Flanagan just to name shows I've attended.

Larry Kart Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) Yes, but if I read the story correctly, most of the recordings will be of the JALC orchestra, and we know how well those albums have sold over the years. 'The recording project is the baby of Mr. Marsalis, who has conceived and developed each year’s programming over the last 28 years. “I picked almost every song we played at every concert,” he said.'Comprising mostly performances by Mr. Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, the organization’s R. Theodore Ammon Archives and Music Library has grown to include thousands of songs from hundreds of concerts.'

Bill Nelson Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 It defies every aspect of corporate responsibility that Sony Music has continued to bankroll Marsalis' productions since 1982. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Wood Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well, I'd be interested in the Wayne Shorter and Ornette Coleman concerts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Kart Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) Me, too, probably -- but are we going to get them or just lots from the JALC orchestra? Negotiating rights might be a bear when it comes to non-JALC artists. Edited July 1, 2015 by Larry Kart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmce Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Yeah, check the prices for used JALCO CDs on Amazon.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Terrible label name as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) the Shorter was not very good; flat arrangements and very sub-par Shorter. Shorter's weak playing is something no one seems to want to talk about. Edited July 1, 2015 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hope they do some of Alan's tunes. Maybe start with "Coral Rock" ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
