cliffpeterson Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 I have never ordered directly from this label's website. But I have a number of the K2B2 releases, which are all cds. It was my understanding thattThe label was run by Buell Neidlinger. If so, with his death perhaps the label is now run by his estate and/or his spouse. Krystall was apparently a close colleague of Neidlinger's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 I thought that the label was co-run by Buell Neidlinger and Marty Krystall. I wonder if Krystall is running it after Neidlinger's passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Д.Д. Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 I ordered a few CDs from K2B2 after Neidlinger's passing, and the order was handled (very promptly) by Marty Krystall. Don't have this particular CD, but I liked everything I have heard by Krystall, he's an excellent musician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Since the CD-R question may go back to my remark elsewhere ... I just ordered the three Nichols albums (Neidlinger, Krystall, Alden/Krystall/Neidlinger), and the earliest one, "Blue Chopsticks", I only got a CD-R of ... I guess they're sold out on CDs and in order to keep the music in print sell CD-Rs of it. The other two are proper CDs. And my understanding is that indeed it's Krystall handling it now - quite fast delivery, no problems whatsoever. I'm planning on a second order of another three discs soon (there's one with a track featuring Cecil Taylor I saw, and a few more including Nichols tunes).

king ubu Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 My "context" was Nichols so far, not Neidlinger and/or Krystall per se ... but I guess I'll look for the Soul Note disc as well then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you got a CD-R of a title, I would strongly recommend backing it up to a hard drive. I use Exact Audio Copy and create a .WAV & .CUE set of files just in case my original CD-R dies so I can re-create it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
