  1. Careful, there are many RVG fans on this board He's 88 and, unless I missed something, I don't think he's mastering anything anymore.

    According to Mike Weil Acrobat "is a reliable company in contact with several tape archives":
  3. What do you mean "re-write everything"? I am sure you know about "copy and paste." And how do you "copy and paste" from a physical item like a book?
  4. Always a problem when playing vinyl.

  6. Replied by PM. Sale pending.
  7. To sum up: it's not an album I'll be playing often. Your mileage may vary.
  8. I'm now listening to the album on the 3rd CD of the Hutcherson Mosaic Select. Funky and electric indeed. Unfortunately, the Select sounds a bit loud to my ears. Personnel: Freddie Hubbard - trumpet Manny Boyd - soprano and tenor saxophones, flute Hadley Caliman - tenor saxophone, flute Bobby Hutcherson - vibraphone, marimba George Cables - piano, electric piano James Leary III - bass Eddie Marshall - drums

  10. Other than that the album is included in the Bobby Hutcherson Mosaic Select, no. I haven't listened to it in ages.
  11. Wow. You can't say there's no interest here
  12. He obviously felt the need to emphasize his points I thought these things were meant to be smart phones

  14. Wasn't that a 'Great Day in Harlem' forum or something? It does not seem to exist anymore... Joined it on the first (or second) day of the Exodus, along with three other forums. It took only a few days to decide which one to stick with Yep, it was the "Great Day in Harlem" board. I got the impression they weren't too happy with the invasion, even though their board was all but dead. It had a weird atmosphere.
  15. I got the Donald Byrd and Dexter Gordon titles that are also on the respective Mosaic and Blue Note boxes and did a few very quick comparisons some time ago. The Japanese CDs came out best, but let me add that I'm biased: I don't really like the sound on those boxes very much, they are typical later Ron McMaster jobs - I prefer his earlier work. Your mileage may vary, of course

    Kenny Ball RIP

    Wasn't trad jazz more like a fad? I think some of its musicians were influential, not so much trad jazz itself (Ken Colyer also comes to mind). Its heyday was short-lived if I remember correctly (late 1950s-early 1960s). By the way, wasn't Alexis Korner more into blues?
  17. Threads like this always remind me of members who left the board. I miss some of them. It was nothing, really. All I did was start the thread.

    Yep - Acker Bilk in his pre-"Stranger on the Shore" days had some success with "That's My Home" with his Paramount Jazz Band, and so did Chris Barber with his version of "Petite Fleur", and I'm sure there were others. Humphrey Lyttleton, too, with 'Bad penny blues' - a while before, though, in '56 I think. The Temperance Seven had four hits in the early sixties. John R T Davies was a member. And others, too, but I can't recall them. MG PS Acker had 6 UK hits before 'Strangler on the shore', 3 in the top 10. Alex Welsh had a small hit in '61. Chris Barber managed 3 hits. Kenny topped them all with 13 UK hits between 1961 and 1964 and another in '67. Yes, of course, the Temperance Seven with John R.T. Davies, with novelty hits like "Pasadena" and "You're Driving Me Crazy". Funny at best. Trad jazz wasn't really my thing and I don't remember any other hits besides the ones I mentioned.
  19. (Former?) board member Michael Fitzgerald is co-author of the book. If I remember correctly the book has been discussed here. Weird that you couldn't find an old thread about it.

    Sorry to hear this. Though I was not exactly a "trad jazz" fan, I liked his early 1960s hit versions of "March of the Siamese Children", "The Green Leaves of Summer" and "Midnight in Moscow".

  24. I don't know if this is a unauthorized release, but I deleted my link to avoid any problems.
