erwbol Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Anyone know if the Bud Roost recordings on Japanese LP are speed corrected? The track times on these two Japanese LPs correspond closely to the times of the FLAC tracks from the BN box I have on my hard drive, unlike the Japanese CD I own. Japanese LP 1 Japanese LP 2The Japanese CD from 2006 is also too loud for my taste. It highlights the deficiencies of the original recording.

xybert Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 I believe your copy is TOCJ-50040. Thanks erwbol. I'll report back once i've received it and compared it to the BN box for anyone that's interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xybert Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Received my copy of Bud Powell Trio (TOCJ-50040) today. It's hard for me to differentiate as the mastering is clearly louder which can be confused for higher pitched, but i believe that it hasn't been pitch corrected. There's not a huge difference though (to my ears, musicians and/or people with perfect pitch may beg to differ). For your listening pleasure, i've uploaded a back to back comparison. The version from the BN/Roost box starts at approximately 2:47. EDIT: I've now deleted the video from Youtube.

mikelz777 Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Kashmere Stage Band - Texas Thunder Soul: 1968-1974 [Deluxe Edition, 2-CD/1 DVD] Has anyone purchased anything from Disc-O-Rama Overstock.com? I've never heard of them before but I discovered they were selling this for $10.99. When I put it in my cart, I noticed that they applied a $5 discount and the shipping was free so I only paid $5.99. (It was listed as new, factory sealed.) That's a pretty nice deal! I hope they're a dependable seller and that this pans out.

xybert Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Sonny Rollins - The Solo Album jcam, let me know how you go with that one if you get a chance. Have come close to picking it up a couple of times but it gets mixed reviews. A solo Sonny disc is mighty tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin V Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Brian Lynch is having a sale on his Hollistic MusicWorks site, with CDs 50% off and downloads very reasonably priced. I purchased: The Questioned Answer album features Emmet Cohen, Boris Kozlov and Billy Hart, while the download album of extra tracks has Lynch and Cohen performing as a duo. The Combinations: Live at the Jazz Estate album is a collaboration between Lynch and a group based in his hometown of Milwaukee. I'm excited to hear all of it.

If Sonny is that critical of his own playing, what was he thinking releasing this? Not that most of his other Milestone albums do not contain a lot of crap.

I didn't realize the album was so poorly regarded. Either way, I'm looking forward to hearing it. I understand that Youtube has the ability to provide a preview, but to me that kills the joy of discovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 The Solo Album is simply Sonny free-associating as he goes, no set list or anything. As "listener-friendly music", yes mileages vary, and understandably so. But as an unfettered look at/into Sonny's "process", I think it's invaluable.

GA Russell Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 My first Sonny Milestone was his 1997 (1996?) Silver City twofer. And I have every Milestone put out after that. I'm quite pleased with every one of them. Are they generally regarded as superior to his pre-Silver City releases, or am I just an easy lay?

HutchFan Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I think the later Milestone releases are more highly regarded. Generally speaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcam_44 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sonny Rollins - The Solo Album jcam, let me know how you go with that one if you get a chance. Have come close to picking it up a couple of times but it gets mixed reviews. A solo Sonny disc is mighty tempting. I have listened to it twice and find it to be excellent. I think if you play you will find it awe-inspiring. I know critics gave the impression that this was nothing more than a practice session, but i would give a leg to have a practice session flow so easily. I find it interesting because it shows his ability to associate ideas, and in such a different and more melodic manner than most solo woodwind albums. My favorite solo woodwind of all-time is Vinny Golia - Clarinet but for far different reasons than this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to rush out and get it at this stage but i'll keep it in mind next time i do an order. I still really want to explore the Milestone years in more depth. I know there's the Silver City double disc but, you know, i want the full albums for better or worse. Really wish they'd put out a budget-ish box set along the lines of the recent Universal Italy ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got this disc for a song. It cost more than 12x's the disc for shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
