EU music recordings copyright to be extended to 70 years
miles65 replied to J.A.W.'s topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
The European Commission who issued the directive was not democratically elected, as no European government is in a parliamentary system, but the directive was approved by the European Parliament, wchich was democratically elected. Besides, the directive will have to be turned into legislation by all national parliaments of the EU member states, which are all democratically elected. Yes your right. It won't be easy to reverse this directive. I don't think it will play even a minor role in the next election for the European Parliament. But I'll stop here discussing Europian Union and democracy that would belong in the Politics section. -
EU music recordings copyright to be extended to 70 years
miles65 replied to J.A.W.'s topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Why is it a bizarre decision? Because it will affect Hep too? I would name it bizarre because it's retroactive. Products that have been on the market legaly for years now become illegal. If record companies would keep their entire catalogue in stock then I wouldn't object. -

Question: Who voted for the people who took that decision? Right answer: Nobody -
The Complete Felsted Mainstream Collection
miles65 replied to tranemonk's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Sorry -- don't have strong memories of it. I do very much like the "The Big Sound" date on Verve and the RCA Hodges-Strayhorn big band album, plus the Hodges 1956-61 small-group things that Granz recorded and that came out in a Mosaic box. The The Big Sound date is included in the Hodges 1956-1961 Mosaic set. Talk about failing memory -- I bought "The Big Sound" separately a good many years after I bought the Mosaic set. From 'The Big Sound' only the second session of September 3, 1957 is on the Mosaic Set. The sessions of June 26, 1957 and the first session of September 3 1957 are big band recordings and thus not included on this small groups set. So you were right to buy the Fresh Sound. -
Yes it has a 24 page booklet.

Thanks all of you. I had a very nice day and just had a very good meal (here it is 10:40 PM). Now listening to Isham Jones on Timeless Historical.

The Jazz Oracle "Jelly Roll" Morton is not on the market yet but there is already an announcement for a next one. http://www.worldsrecords.com/cgi-bin/storeR.cgi?specific=itemcode&phrase=72656 The Merritt Brunies sides were issued last year on Retrieval sandwiched between a lot of recordings already available on Timeless Historical. The newest Jazz Oracle has all of them plus some tracks from New Orleans that have not been on CD before. Like the Scranton Sirens Orchestra. The Red Nichols sets have arrived safely. :)

Stan Getz Quintets: The Clef & Norgran Studio Albums
miles65 replied to crisp's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Hip-o now has the studio version of Flamingo as a free MP3 download. Downloading doesn't work in Firefox but it works in Internet Explorer. -
I think he's one of the best with Ted Kendall and Nick Dellow to name a few of the great sound restorers. For a partial list of Hans Eekhoff's work I refer to post 43 in the Jazz Oracle tread.
-
Well how about the 4 Ragtime to jazz volumes on Timeless. I find this stuff fascinating. I am looking forward to the Jazz Oracle collecting all early Jelly Roll Morton Band recordings. The Retrieval solo piano disc and the JSP Victor set are not to be missed either.

Were Fats Waller and Duke Ellington friends at all???
miles65 replied to BERIGAN's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Mark Tucker writes in Duke Ellington The Early Years page 95 "He had become friendly with Willie "The Lion" SMITH, James P. Johnson, Fats Waller and other musicians whom he had met at clubs and jam sessions. So friendly not friends Fats is named a number of times buit always as being similar in piano style and once as a tutor to Ellington. Tucker´s book follows Ellington upto his openingnight at the Cotton Club -

Once in a while I wonder about Bozy White's Bunny Berigan Bio/Disco. Today I found this on http://www.jazz-book.com/news.html "White, Bozy: Bunny Berigan bio-discography. This project has made further progress. To be published in 2 volumes later this year. " I hope this comes true. It would be a fitting hommage to both Bunny and Bozy

Collecting all pre Victor band sides and Morton as accompanist to blues singers Edmonia Henderson, Lizzie Miles and Billie Young. The sound restoration is by the sound restoration wizzard Hans Eekhoff. This CD togheter with the Retrieval CD "Ferd 'Jelly Roll' Morton" with his piano solos and the JSP Box covering the Victor recordings you have a almost complete 1923-1930 Jelly Roll Morton. Both restored sound by John R.T. Davies. Missing are the ca. April 1924 session Jelly Roll morton Stomp Kings/Jazz Kids. Morton is not audible on this. The January 21st 1928 Levee Serennaders session wich is on Frog DGF9 "Get Easy Blues" and the march 13 1928 session with Johnny Dunn wich is on Frog DGF33 "Cornet Blues".

Mine being Classics/Neatwork. http://www.worldsrecords.com/pages/artists/m/morton_jelly_roll/jelly_roll_morton_67284.html

Evans was realy great today. Personaly I think that Schleck Brothers themself are to blame for Andy not to win the Tour because he was too much looking out for Frank wanting him to be second. If he realy wants to win the Tour he should let go of his brother and go for his own chances. Frank is off course als a great rider but not as good as Andy might be. Now they are both on the podium tomorrow but not on that all important first place. It is a first in the Tour for two brothers to be on the podium. Here in Holland all eyes are on Johnny Hoogerland with his 33 stiches.

Evans could win if he showed more courage to attack. Today he was good but attacked a little too late. After Andy's attack the pack was a bit lame. What could happen tomorrow and Saturday? A number of scripts: Andy tries again for the Yellow Jersey if he succeeds he most probably wins the Tour. if he fails then either Voeckler, Evans or brother Frank still have a chance. Evans attacks instead of looking at what the others do and then he reacts. If he succeeds depending on the margin he gets it's all down to the time trail. If Voeckler hangs on to the Yellow tomorrow who knows what he might do in the timetrail Saturday. A Frenchman in the Yellow so close to Paris. He would be the first French winner since Hinault in 1985. I don't count on Contador any more. Anyway tomorrow I'll have the afternoon off from work to watch it live.
