  1. I don't know which Clifford Brown Voge album is listed above, but some of the material he recorded with Gigi Gryce in Paris was also released on Prestige.
  2. Vogue LD 169 was reissued on Prestige 7827. Personnel on this date: Konitz, Henri Renaud (piano), Jimmy Gourley (guitar), Don Bagley (bass) and Stan Levey (drums).
  3. See my last post and Larry's post above yours. It can now be accessed again.
  4. The older Kenny Burrell thread (from 2012) seems to have been deleted. I have no idea why.
  5. This is a Sony Europe release.
  6. Recent thread on Kenny Burrell:
  7. I agree with you there, the legitimacy of many live recordings released on obscure labels is questionable to say the least.
  8. If the radio stations don't own the rights of their Miles Davis recordings and don't have the right to license them, then why didn't the actual owners for instance stop the Dragon set, which was released way before the old 50-year EU copyright limit? As Kevin posted above they did so with other releases. Furthermore, as was discussed on this board (Lon's first link above), Miles got royalty payments from Dragon and thanked them for it; I don't think that would have happened if the release had been illegit. Why don't copyright holders stop Amazon from selling PD material that shouldn't be brought into the US? Sometimes the fight isn't worth it. Just because they haven't stopped this release doesn't prove it's legit, esp. if it just slipped under the wire for PD status in the EU. As I indicated a few times the Dragon set was released when the material wasn't yet in the public domain in the EU, that's why I specifically mentioned it. Why would they have paid Miles and why would he have thanked them if the release had been illegit? Did you read the discussion on this board Lon linked to above?

  10. Check out this post: Also on this search page: https://groups.googl...zM/gYqVy-xh3SMJ Thanks for posting those links. ----- Exclusive contracts under U.S. law, such as Miles Davis is assumed to have had with Columbia, don't necessarily apply to the rest of the world.
  11. As was the case with the Stockholm concerts that were released on the Dragon set (which, by the way, came out long before the old EU 50-year copyright limit and wasn't stopped; it's still available) the rights of the Amsterdam concerts are owned by the radio station that recorded them, not the estate. The release is legit.
  12. The Dutch set is now also available from German store jpc.de for €25.99: http://www.jpc.de/jp...3251459?lang=en (English) or http://www.jpc.de/jp...3251459?lang=de (German).
  13. Why get a probably expensive Japanese import while you can get the same material on the Dutch 2CD-set we've been talking about on this thread? The Dutch release is excellent and I doubt the Japanese version will sound better.
  14. I'd also buy the Daley first (finances permitting), followed by the Carter/Bradford.
  15. Make that "Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ" http://www.muziekgebouw.nl/
  16. I guess they ran out of money. Their site has the following message: The MCN's state subsidies were cut by the Dutch government in an effort to reduce the national budget deficit. Pity, as the MCN used to support young musicians and all kinds of music.
  17. I admit to not really loving her famous Mozart and Schubert recordings. And that's putting it mildly. I'm not an Uchida fan either, nor are Mozart's sonatas my cup of tea - and that's also putting it mildly
  18. Yep, that Café Zimmermann set is brilliant. Get it while you can!
  19. Low taxes and almost no social security compared to Europe. It's a price the majority of the American people chose to pay. But that's a political topic that doesn't belong here
  20. Bruckner 8 - "dancing in a cathedral".
  21. You're right. I was the one who posted Gioia's tweet here, but had second thoughts soon afterwards, just because his tweet wasn't verified. It would probably have been better if I had deleted it. Couldn't agree more.
  22. Finally some good news.
  23. Ted Gioia has posted Priester's passing on twitter: https://twitter.com/tedgioia/status/300367518118313985 Sad news.
  24. You think Chuck does it for the money!!!!???? I didn't mean that he's getting rich by reissuing jazz recordings. I meant that he's not doing it to get poor. Is everyone here really this naive? Why do I have to explicitly explain everything I say? Read between the lines sometimes. It keeps the mind young! If you feel so superior to "everyone here", what are you still doing on this board?
