Nothing really to add to what has already been said. Like others I have a countless number of his LP productions on Prestige, Onyx and Xanadu. Thanks for all these productions , cover art and all the other contributions. A life well lived. RIP.

Did Shelly Manne ever record a Latin album? Or any latin tracks? I'm struggling to remember any. I am listening to the original Jazz a la Lighthouse record and there is an at best semi successful (from the pov of the drums) track with congas.

R.I.P. to a very significant contributor.

Yes, Leo Wright. I guess he was still signed to Atlantic/Vortex at that point?

yes, Leo Wright, who would have been on Atlantic at the time.

Damn, what a life indeed. RIP.

Someone is etc. On Little Johnny C. Maybe Leo Wright?

Also on a couple of Wayne Shorter BN albums. Due to a restriction in his Impulse! contract.

Please hold these CDs for me: Koller, Hans Minor Meetings 1958 $8 Koller ,Hans/Bernard Konrad Unit Phonolith $6 HatOLOGY Kenny Wheeler

Couldn't say it better. R.I.P.

Great loss. Thanks for the insight and the quality ... RIP

Great contributor over many decades. I have what must be hundreds of discs he produced on Prestige, Cobblestone/Muse, and Xanadu. I was not aware of his design and photography work!

Damn! RIP

RIP Don Schlitten! Most of my first jazz LPs were Prestige records, so for my experience he was there from the start.

Donald Byrd “Off to the Races” Blue Note Japan 24 bit by RVG lp facsimile cd. Stereo version. Sounds pretty darned good to me on my system today.

Absolutely right! In terms of how a producer's name alone could make you buy an album by a completely unknown artist, Alfred Lion and Don were the twin pillars. Honestly, I had no idea who most of the leaders on Xanadu's albums were until I bought them. I bought them sight unseen, but they almost never disappointed. RIP.

I never knew the depth of Don Schlitten’s background, he will be missed.

. In such ways do all good things end, by ending.
