LF CD Titled "Jazz Rarities" volume 1. Released by IAJRC many years ago. I would be happy with a CDR.

How much Brubeck is on the additional tracks in "The Real Ambassadors"?

The unissued 30 April 1950 session at Mills College is a tremendous find. Hopefully a tape will show up. As a long-time Brubeck collector I would love to have a CD of this session.

If you want to get rid of them I suggest listing them on eBay. You might be surprised what they may be worth.

Jazzbo- I just checked Amazon and they list a CD containing Southern Scene and The Riddle. Issued by Solar Records.

Columbia/Sony have issued most of the Dave Brubeck catalog on CD except for "Compadres" and "The Last Time We Saw Paris". It is about time. On another subject- Jordi Pujol of Fresh Sound Records deserves great credit for issuing CDs of many, many LPs that otherwise would never been issued on CD. He continues today.

I have learned to live with clicks and pops from 78s and LPs. Trying to eliminate them always seems to affect the music. The big guys, like Sony, can do a good job but IMHO not the typical collector.

Lord shows the 2 songs on Rex 26000 but with different players. Ray Vasquez and His Be-boppers- probably Vasquez on alto, Lucky Thompson on tenor, unknown p,b,d.

I bought a region-free DVD/Bluray player in 2018, from 220-electronics.com. It is a Sony BDP-S1700. 220-electronics makes a hardware modification to the circuit board to make it all-region. I actually talked to the technician who makes the modification. The modification costs $40 on top of the $99 non-modified price. No codes or anything else needed to play any DVD/Bluray. Since my purchase I am extremely happy- I have played all kinds of DVD/Bluray discs with no problems. I highly recommend this company.

A Doug Carn LP was issued in 1969 on Savoy label- "The Doug Carn Trio". Has been re-issued on CD.

I used listening booths many times in the 50's and early 60's. LPs were not sealed in those days, most were mono. Typical price for an LP was $3.95 or less for 10-inchers. LPs were produced on heavy vinyl and were fairly resistant to scratches caused by playing prior to purchase. I think the emergence of stereo and sealed LPs and lighter vinyl LPs helped the demise of listening booths. Also in those days if after purchasing an LP you found scratches on it while playing you could return it to the record store for a refund or exchange.

The Paul Horn Quintet was recorded in a March 10, 1958 session on the "Stars of Jazz" TV series show #88. This session was released on Calliope LP CAL-3034. James Harrod's new book "Stars of Jazz" gives detail biographical information and a discography of that session.

I would like the Hank Jones New York Rhythm Section.

James Harrod's new book titled "Stars Of Jazz- Television Series 1956-1958" has a complete discography of the Calliope Label 36 LPs. It is available on Amazon.

I had the Buddy Bolden LP but somehow have misplaced it. Darn!

Pat Moran, Lorraine Geller, Joyce Collins, Clora Bryant, Joanne Grauer

Are there any recordings of Lee Konitz playing a clarinet?

Have both.

Have both.

I now have Calliope 3023 and 3025. My collection of 36 Calliope items is complete! Bump.

"Stars Of Jazz". A complete history of the innovative television series 1956-1958. By James A. Harrod. Also has complete discography of Calliope Records which released 36 LPs from the TV series. Absolutely outstanding work! Available on Amazon.

With the stay at home situation now would be a great time to enter your 3x5 cards into an excel spreadsheet. Each card would be a record. It would take a lot of time but in the long run it would be worth it.

Entering a collection onto an excel spread-sheet is quite easy. It would take a lot of time if you have a large collection but the benefits after you are done are terrific. The capability of excel to sort any column is very useful. At a minimum you could enter artist, title, and label in each of 3 columns. Additional columns could include source such as CD, CDR, LP, Cassette. Secondary artists could also be listed in separate columns. I find this very useful because some albums have more than one principal artist or for a particular artist that I follow. I also have a column for notes about the album that I want to save.

Frank Rehak LP Dawn DLP-1107 titled "Jazzville vol.2" is reissued on Dawn CD DCD-114 titled "Jazzville".

I use an excel spread-sheet for my 4,000 CD/CDR collection. I can sort by Artist, Title, Label. For liner notes, etc I have to go to my shelves. Other than excel I have not downloaded any thing to hard drives, etc.
