GA Russell Posted September 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 I'm very interested in the Klaus Doldinger. I loved his '69 recording released in the US as Blues Happening. Can anyone tell me anything about this Doldinger box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisp Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Me too. I missed the boat on the complete Phillips box set. I like his song choices. BTW any remarks on Rita Reys would also be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A really cool voiced lady - highlights of the Box (IMO) are "Rita Reys Meets Oliver Nelson" and "Rita Reys Today" but the other albums not lagging too far behind .... and the price for this amount of music is pittance ....

Big Beat Steve Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) I assume it's this one, but I still don't think their sketch looks like Getz: Yes, the one who drew that "likeness" (?) did not know his craft. And very unfavorable and unflattering for Stan Getz it is too. Edited September 20, 2017 by Big Beat Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 I got excited and confused for a moment. . .these newly listed ones on the page aren't "Concord" boxes. . .alas, those would be more interesting perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 Same here: I also thought it´s about the Concord label. They had some beautiful stuff and I think some of it is OOP. I´m quite disappointed it´s not what I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 Even the Concord sets are more likely to be the labels they acquired from Fantasy (Prestige, Riverside, etc.). Great music, but already re-re-re-released to death. And knowing Concord, their idea of a swell box set would be to combine "Plays for Lovers" bogus compilations by, say Miles, Trane, Monk, Brubeck, Newk.

HutchFan Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 This means that Concord now owns all of the Muse catalog -- except for the few titles owned by Don Schlitten -- correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so, yeah? So will this make it easier or more difficult for Mosaic to get together that Bill Barron set that I'm everybody is clamoring for?

crisp Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 More difficult. I don't think Concord has ever licensed anything to Mosaic. Nor have they re-released much of their considerable archive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are blessed that there isn't all that much from Prestige/Riverside that wasn't reissued on CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesnik Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 And the RVG Prestige reissues Concord itself did some time ago (some ten years ago) were also a good bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't that funny? Would Universal Europe get in the boot business? Perhaps they represent Concord in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 Not seeing anything in that batch that wouldn't already be Universal-owned anyway, so how would it be boot and/or illegal here? More like beat the boots, take that Geogy Pulledpork! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously they do distribute Concord in Europe. But they certainly go for 50 year = PD on European market, too - that was my point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I posted it in the wrong thread. Although they are all European Universal projects since Uni handles Concord and the Verve family over here.
