pm on Paul Rutherford, Ken Vandermark, Torsten Muller, & Dylan van der Schyff, "Hoxha" (Spool) [quartet]

RIP Nate had been listening to you recently on a Kamau Daaood CD (Leimert Park)

bringing up the Lenox School of Jazz thread again can anyone verify what vinyl was originally released from the 59 date (Aug 29) - an Atlantic test pressing has been mentioned & for sale (see above - unfortunately the link to ebay no longer exists) The Lord discography also mentions a "special LP, not for sale" - I wonder if he is referring to the test pressing? Discogs also mentions a privately pressed LP & a repressed Italian facsimile (does this reuse the original LP cover) - if it was only a test pressing, I can't imagine a properly designed cover was made) http://www.discogs.com/Ornette-59-Lenox-School-Of-Jazz/release/4368556 Were all 11 titles (in circulation on the 2 CDs) released on this mysterious LP (LPs)? So, was there a private pressing with that amazing cover plus a test pressing for Atlantic Michael Fitzgerald's site does not discuss the LP/LPs (AFAIK)

No, that was genuine - my copy shipped today (was on backorder) & at that price

Yep, we've got it pretty good here (apart from shipping costs) I've been buying LPs & CDs internationally since the mid 80's & have only been hit with customs duty once (back in 86 & it was the Frank Zappa Old Masters Box 1) I remember being slightly apprehensive when waiting for the Ellington RCA box but nothing eventuated

Even their colonial cousins weren't spared - anyone remember the Australian table wine sketch I remember at University & parties in the early 70's people reciting verbatim various MP skits (in retrospect, they were probably on the spectrum)

And its available! Gotta get it. Required listening if you're into the "free" stuff. there are excellent live WDR quintet (including Tchicai) recordings that fill the gap (70-74) in his discography - should be officially released

What I suspect they'll eventually do is to sell both as a significantly reduced double set (Amazon US is currently offering this but at $105 i.e. the same price as the individual items)

Here's a screen shot from my Lord Discography looks like it's the 6 titles from the Dec 66 session (confirmed by Grooves listing) but no Kuhn material that was on the Avantgarde CD Looks like The 2 titles from Sept 67 (also on the FMP LP) haven't had a CD release

that's correct AFAIK

Four titles were originally released on FMP LP 0540 "The Early Quintet" & all six titles have subsequently been released on the German Immus CD "Avantgarde" The session was recorded in Dec 66 Just picked up a CD of the earlier CBS (May 66, Frankfurt) recording "Voices" with the same musicians

Another 30 Bethlehem releases from Japan due in mid December http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/search/music/adv_1/barcodecatnum_CDSOL-6/category_1/x_60/y_18/ They're continuing to mine the catalogue with some wonderful surprises (one high on my wish list DICK WETMORE - finally!!) Herbie Mann, Stu Williamson, Don Elliott, Australian All-Stars, Aaron Sachs, Anthony Ortega, Frances Faye, Marty Paich, Frank Rosolino, Porgy & Bess 2CD (Torme & Faye), Jazz At The Metropole Cafe The big one for me is the first CD issue of the Dick Wetmore 10" (containing Bob Zieff compositions)

Not that impressive !! - always have a pang of disappointment when the latest reissue batch is listed This is the second Hatology release of Lorrach (last in 2002 plus a Hat Art version in 1995) i.e. 3CD releases - nice to see Ayler in print but what about previously unreleased (CD) material from other deserving artists eg Jimmy Lyons - "Riffs", "Push Pull", "What To Do About" - these are all great sessions that haven't seen the digital medium AFAIK Also hanging out for "gardens"

Just ordered a copy - great price Also, what's up with Amazon's shipping rates (international) - have they been dropped? - only cost me $6 to ship to Australia (usually 14-15) Same with the 10DVD Ken Burns box which I just bought - on special for $41 (Amazon) & shipping was only $7 to Australia Thought I'd finally go for it (in the face of good & bad reviews), especially at that price - the full series was never shown here & our DVD release set was seriously truncated

Many thanks grabbed one earlier today (hope it's not some Eastern European facsimile/boot)

was released on Excelsior 78 159 & has been reissued on Rhino CD 75872 (Central Ave Sounds) no specific date in Lord discog - only 1945 There's also an AFRS Jubilee version from Jan 46 (same lineup as above) - it's on the Hep CD "Groovin High In LA 1946"

according to the Lord Discography, 4 titles were released on a Tring International CD (GRF065) - not sure of the title is your LP on the Booman label?

Looks interesting - don't have any Drake on CD only have the 1986 Fruit Tree box containing the 4 LPs - may be worth upgrading to CD

One of my fave Australian groups "The Necks" are currently on a UK/Euro tour just played 3 sold out nights at Cafe Oto Radio Three organised a meeting between the Trio & Evan Parker (which was recorded & will be broadcast on Nov 21) - read the details in Richard Williams blog "The Bluemoment" - he was present http://thebluemoment.com/2013/11/07/the-necks-in-london/#comments can't wait to hear this I usually get to see them once a year when they do their Australian tour

The Hawkins material appears to have originated from a Modern session(s) - Only two titles (of 10) were released on a Modern V/A LP "Jazz All Stars" M7027/MST827 The Lord Discography lists all 10 titles as being recorded in 1960 (very non specific) - may have been more than one session date? All titles were initially released on Crown (AFAIK)

The Hamilton & Baker discs are from various previously released Pacific Jazz sessions (CD/Mosaic boxes) The Hawkins looks interesting though it has been previously released on Boplicity - would have been nice if they had released the whole session (2 LP's The Hawk Sings & The Hawk Swings) on a single CD (or double)

It's good - shame that Vocalion or Ten To Ten (Clark Tracey's label) have not put this out on CD. Ownership rights issue, perhaps? The LP is recorded in a studio session at Lansdowne Studio but it covers the same Tracey charts as on the TV show (which was introduced by saxophonist/critic Benny Green). Slight digression here but while on the Harriott topic & unreleased material Hum Dono - was slated for release by Universal in 2005 (master tapes are probably still in existence?) [This is what has been posted on the Amancio D'Silva site, maintained by Stephano, for over two years: "Full re-release on CD by Universal music: expected Spring 2005"] Steph is also a guitarist. http://inconstantsol.blogspot.com.au/2008/02/joe-harriott-amancio-dsilva-quartet-hum.html

Well the first two Jazz on Film sets were on the Moochin' About label, so it's pretty confusing. Battle of the PD's. I have the first "Jazz on Film" box on Moochin' About and really like it, so will stick with them. Same here - I have the first 2 "Moochin' About" boxes - very happy with them. Also they are releasing a Chet Baker Set in December (listed on Amazon UK but not on the Moochin' About site yet) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Jazz-Film-Chet-Baker-ICON-Featuring/dp/B00FXWC1NO/ref=sr_1_4?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1383621048&sr=1-4&keywords=jazz+on+film

Actually, I've just realised I have an original Australian pressing of this Columbia LP "We Love You Madly…" Don't think it's ever made it to CD

Have just found this amazing footage of Joe Harriott soloing with the Stan Tracey Big Brass (1969) First live recording I've ever seen of Joe
