The Complete Blue Note Recordings of Herbie Nichols
couw replied to Guy Berger's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
they do? There are some small drop-outs, but as far as I can hear, this stuff is perfectly mono. -
Oh, the calculations it would take

of course that wouldn't work no more, so just go here and go through the moves yourself. -

between "Nathworth" and "Kneflis", maybe it's René Bertschy (b. 1912). Swiss drummer and bandleader, played with the Original Teddies. Can someone post an mp3 of the announcement?

As for Blue Bossa, that sounds a lot like Bill Watrous on the trombone and I would opt for Nick Brignola on the saxes. That would make it likely this is from the L.A. Bound album, but AMG lists a shorter version of the tune for that album...

Re: track 7, I checked and found out! Although it's not him on bass, the tune is named after him. Penned by Johnson with Mr Velvet touch on piano and the dark guy on drums. Leo Parker on the baritone indeed!

Great disk, but sadly I have too little time to spin and listen attentively. Many things going on here and I am lacking daily exposure and cannot name the most common tunes or players off late. Still I conjured up some remarks and here goes: een: a slow start that proves to be quite the blast off! Based on the blasts alone, I'd say this is Thad and Mel with the brawling baritone of Pepper Adams. Richardson on alto maybe, though I don't think that's Knepper on trombone... Obviously this is taken from vinyl, which may mean it is hard to google something up on it. Good stuff, but a bit too much reng-deng in the face for my tastes and only for the occasional car drive. Yee-hah! twee: my first thought was Chaloff here, because of all the butter in the sax. There is a strange swooshing distortion, as if this is from mp3. The bass is too modern for a Chaloff recording so this must be another butter baritone sliding through the chorusses. Beats me. Nice stuff though! Nah, that's not Chaloff. drie: the big band caught me offguard, I was expecting an intimate small group ditty. Nice bass for a big band rekkid. Allusions of Basie here and there, but it's not him. The intro/outro has me doubting. Nice deep barking baritone. And damn if I could place a name on that tenor. Drats! Very nice cut if I could only enjoy it instead of kicking myself for not coming up with any names. vier: a cool baritone for a change. Love this one. The interplay half way through is especially nice. vijf: I have a distinct feeling that I should know this one, but once again my mind is blank. Love the way the saxist draws his lines across the beat into the next crevice and lets it all tumble from above with just enough control so it makes it to the next line. zes: this sounds like some european Kolleresque arrangement. So Rodney, what am I missing? Memory? zeven: a Dameron tune? It's been ages since I played some of that early boppish stuff. I sure need to again. Leo Parker then? Maybe on one of those J.J. Savoy sides; I'd need to check- eight: the tune is familiar and I like the set up with the guitar, but no clues, no guesses... negen: Blue Bossa. The trombone sounds familiar and who's that on soprano?? This is good stuff! Maybe one guy doubling on soprano and baritone? tien: Very nice. I love how this band sets up smaller groups to take turns here and there, as if taking a walk through a large old building with an occasional open door where we get a peek of everyday life of some happy people who need no stress and carry on about their business. elf: a nice euro sound again. music to stroll through the park by. twaalf: waaah! great stuff! great energy! and a great gnawing conscious yelling at me. Soaring tenor takes the lead in a rodeo to show off to the baritone it seems, Griffin? So is this Ronnie then? Sounds like a tenor with a cough, fantastic. Maybe one of those NDR workshop things? dertien: drats! name that tune as I can't! total mind block. That echo on the baritone solo is whack BTW. veertien: more Euro tunes. And more nice! And more no clue whatsoever! vijftien: sounds like a Rollins tune, what's it again. This is really great. zestien: some more old stuff which I am almost certain I have heard before. All in all a pretty lame performance here! But I love this disk. I'll be playing it some more over the week(s) and although the guesswork seems finished for me at the time, maybe I'll add a remark here and there. Thanks much to Rodney for compiling this set.

you'll also want the HiLo/Savoy sides, issued on "VA - I Just Love Jazz Piano" (Savoy) -
dingdong!

should work same for a Mac. all you need is a soundcard and any of those is llikely to give you better results than this ditty. Sometimes it is certainly worth to invest some time and effort into getting it good instead of just getting it working. You will want decent dubs of your vinyl, right?
-
no, you feed the signal of the phono amp into your soundcard using this ditty cable thing that goes from two plugs to one slim headphone plug like Claude described above. Then you record using some audio software, which is available for cheap or even for free.
