I have the Lazar album on the collection of his work that came out on Jasmine a few years ago. Also the Americans in Europe, the Monk in a Columbia box, and I went out and bought the Charette based on this BFT! I need to look into getting that Basie! Had the Ware for a while when I owned the Jordan Mosaic box, and would jump at a reasonably-priced standalone CD of it. Thx for the BFT!

Good question. I'm not overly hopeful for the Keno Duke albums since they did not make the initial mass downloads.

Not aware of this, tell us more (about Terrell/not Terrell! BTW, her sister-in-law Jean Terrell was my favorite Supremes lead singer.

'Blue Movies: Scoring for the Studios'. I had to look it up, never heard of it before! Doesn't sound like he does. Unless it's Lee Morgan & His Tijuana Brass. Surely a bunch of UA studio artists. He does play well on the A-side, "Midnight Cowboy", which has some merit to it.

Three more apparently never issued on CD: Joe Williams - Worth Waiting For Jimmy McGriff - Something to Listen To Jack McDuff - To Seek A New Home All of those are Liberty era releases, I'm shocked that the Japanese never got the McGriff and McDuff reissued.

What's the story on that one and that record company (looks like primarily an R&B label, including releasing Swamp Dogg's 'Total Destruction of Your Mind')? Was that Turrentine just in between BN and CTI, or was it some sort of rejected session. It looks/sounds like first cousin to his final BN albums, 'The Look of Love' and 'Always Something There'. While far from essential, it's not terrible.

Eddie Gomez maybe?

Mack Avenue has posted the entire albums on Youtube: Vick

That's a nice collection of odds and ends. I believe all the cuts ended up being bonus cuts on other HS CD's.

They sound good to me, but I don't have high-end equipment.

Marvelous talent, RIP. I believe I saw him live with Miles Davis at the Tower Theatre ca. 1973, but hard to say, since Miles didn't make any stage announcements and I was very new to jazz at the time.

I got mine from Amazon, $5.99 I believe, thought I don't see a direct link to it out there any more. But you can get to it through bluenote.com, which I did not realize.

I mentioned that yesterday. That was 60's Pacific Jazz material reissued on BN. Also 60's Pacific Jazz material reissued by BN in the 70's. BN does have some downloads available. I own at least one, the Freddie Roach discussed here. Agreed on the Left Bank material!

I wish they would at least make a DL of it available!

Understood. But those are 1960's BN, so it's the collector/completist in me, rather than the music lover in me, that would buy it. Someone else on the board said that the Burrell isn't so hot either, less than the sum its parts.

I forgot these two: Kenny Burrell - Freedom. Only released in Japan on LP, no CD release. Blue Mitchell - Collision in Black, no CD release. I'd buy these on CD.

+1

Mileston Two great LP's that have mystifyingly never seen CD reissue: Gary Bartz 'Home' on Milestone and Sonny Simmons 'Rumasuma' on Contemporary.

Yes, I own it on CD. I also own it, but have (except the one session I mention) and prefer the individual sessions on single CD's. I own the Japanese Santos CD's. Discogs shows 2013 Japanese Minasi CD's.

This is the only one I can think of which I much care about. There are also some other Butler-era albums which have not seen CD, I believe, but can't think of any others I care about: https://www.discogs.com/master/888469-The-New-Heritage-Keyboard-Quartet-The-New-Heritage-Keyboard-Quartet There are a couple of really good Jackie McLean sessions which came out in the 70's twofer series which I believe have only shown up on Mosaic's not on standalone CD's: The April 12, 1966 session from this, only on the McLean Mosaic on CD: https://www.discogs.com/master/114694-Jackie-McLean-Jacknife The February 3, 1967 session from this, only on the Moncur Select on CD: https://www.discogs.com/release/1251655-Jackie-McLean-Hipnosis

I liked the McCoy's and liked his work on 'Johnny Winter And'. RIP.

31 minute EP available free for streaming and minimal cost for download from Amazon, youtube, and other streaming platforms. Incredibly moving performance of four songs and two spoken intros.

I get HG's point. He is truly deep and contradictory in many ways - very human. I have 80-90 % of his official recorded output, have seen him live three times. His activity level at almost 80 is stunning. And the musical diversity of his canon is amazing. My favorite couplet by him remains "A while ago somewhere I don't know when, I was watching a movie with a friend. I fell in love with the actress, she was playing a part that I could understand.", though not far behind is "Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them".

I own and have read V.1 of Rogan, but not V.2. Those things are not only heavy, but also expensive!
