[post about the Maupin and Redman reissues] Speaking of Steve Lake and JazzCorner, this post is especially for those of you who are registered members of JazzCorner as well as Organissimo (but might not have visited JC lately). "A poll: why not? . . . I'll forward the results inside the ECM office." —Steve Lake of ECM, in JC's ECM RECORDS FORUM ♪ ♪ ♪ You're cordially invited to drop by JC and vote in the following poll: ♪ ♪ ♪ Poll: What ECM albums do you MOST want "in print" on CD in your country? http://tinyurl.com/2n6uk4 The poll will be open until the end of December.

ValerieB Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Maybe they lost the artwork and were not happy with the attempts to recreate it. i'm not positive about this but i think the beautiful original cover was done by Bennie's then or future sister-in-law, the very famous artist, Betye Saar.

The original cover is a beauty. A pity they didn't reissue it. I'm confused. I'm looking at ordering these (German releases) from Japan. They show both CDs with the original cover art.
