Any place for more sound samples other than the three on Mosaic's website?

Some ignoramus created a laughable list at Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/lists/The-best-jazz-of-the-90s/1406212

The Musician I love most from them all 💕

Tyler's estate does indeed seem complicated!

oh, I understand now. The buyers are definitely going for 1950 or later, yeah.

I lucked into a Japanese copy (of the physical CD) about four years ago. (Previously, I had the download as well.) Beautiful presentation, excellent remastering—a lovely product overall. More importantly, for those interested, just find a way to listen to the music! 🥰

I've spun this disc THREE times today! I don't know if it's still available (haven't checked), but I'd say it's an excellent entry point into microtonal music. Beautiful, precise playing, amazing sound, and most importantly...very musical. If a person only had "one" album/CD of microtonal music, they'd be well-served with this title. I'm sure there are other more "important" microtonal recordings, but this one is really really good.

Because I saw a DG blurb and just had to check it out:

Yeah, the "Never My Love" had the Piano Concerto/Symphony(?) I mentioned in my post. I heard his version of "Misty"the other day, and the fact that he didn't sing a note of the melody, and changed the chords to a gospel progression in the A section, might have confused the listening public of the time. I bought the vinyl of a Danny O'Keefe album, and was amazed to find DH playing his Wurlitzer on it! I think Atlantic encouraged its artists to collaborate on their albums. They got into some wild jams that you wouldn't expect on a Pop/Country singer's album!

I'd say those are "treasure chest" not "boutique"

I am not sure if the Los Angeles Jazz Institute (LAJI) CDs can be considered to be on a boutique label. The were issued in a limited quantity to members only and contained many unreleased sessions of West Coast jazz. The LAJI also released two box sets. In any case these CDs were West Coast jazz at its best.

👍👍

Did you try Fredericksberg records?

when I was about 39, I once met Mr Fleischhammer at a record fair... somewhere in a corner, he'd hidden the box with all his CDs, including that Brew Moore incredibly cheap, memory says 3 Euro... I bought quite a few of those CDs and said something like "why do you price them like this?" because I would have thought, there's no good reason to go below 5 or 6... the number of additional buyers you gain by reducing the price of an amazing Brew Moore cd from, say, 5 to 3 must be negligible... the ones who know, know, they may not be large in number, but... and he said something like "I wasn't even sure that whether it made sense to bring CDs to an LP-centric fair like this one"... I must have looked at him, like he came from the moon [which was probably not fair]... I am sure selling the stuff is not as much fun as it should be given the quality... but I don't quite trust his skills in assessing the market... the people who are now buying all those tonepoets are not from the "corresponding generation"
