EKE BBB

I´m going to see them live at the Purcell Room as part of the London Jazz Festival (November 12). The previous day, the Tord Gustavsen trio at the Wigmore Hall.

End even another one:

Similar one but with different colour:

The one in my second post, and this one:

Looks like there´ve been several different logos:

Does anyone know when the 78 rpm disc "Me voy p´al pueblo / Desdichado" by Benny Moré with the Mariano Mercerón Orchestra was FIRST issued by RCA Victor in the USA? It should be around 1946. Thanks in advance!

From http://www.draeseke.org:

What´s the story of this label? I remember I asked in the old BNBB with no luck. Some of their discs have been reissued by Fresh Sound Records (i.e. Hawk´s "Accent on tenor sax") Here´s their catalogue, compiled by Michael Fitzgerald: Jazz Label Listings Project ---> Urania Records Thanks in advance!

Usually taken by the very same Nils Winther (owner of Steeplechase) or by his wife (???) Lissa Winther.

I feel for you. I hope that you didn't sell your daughter too. ← WHAAAT !!!! I hope there were no Blue Note originals amongst them.. ← I think life can go on without 3000 Blakey recordings on your shelves... (*) There´s life outside jazz, isn´t there? (*)...even without 3000 Ellington recordings...

There´s a web dedicated to this topic: Elvis Pelvis but is not currently working.

You can order "Lingua Franca-Cosmic dialects" (Nota299) and "Gentle Ben" (Nota 296) at Jazzos.com. Oops, now I see that "Cosmic dialects" is out of stock.

In fact there are a lot of articles (and even reviews), mistaking Joe Turner for Big Joe Turner. The great stride pianist must bear with that!

There will be a collectors edition in 2006, including four numbered and autographed photographs by Claxton. It will go for about 2.500 €!!! (so this current edition is a bargain!)

I also tried to find the creator´s name, with no result. Not even in the "Notes" section, where the genesis of the website is briefly explained.

bichos mentioned it on another thread, but I thought this amazing website should deserve a separate discussion. A real labour of love! BIRD LIVES...

Thanks for your input, Allen. Let´s hope someday the Eubie Blake Music LPs will be reissued on CD.

Looks like the Golden Reunion in Ragtime LP [stereoddities: C1900] recorded on 1962 by Eubie Blake, Joe Jordan and Charlie Thompson has been reissued on CD by Hapi Skratch (???) :
