  1. What's the product ?
  2. You might enjoy parts of Donald Byrd's album Kofi , in particular the third cut , Perpetual Love .
  3. Tell me I'm not the only one for whom this rhyme comes to mind.... One two three A little fool I want to be Two three four You can give me more Five six seven I don't want to wait for heaven Nine ten eleven Going back to seven Seven eight nine Kann denn das noch sein
  4. These choices really surprise me ; can't believe I'm going to be the first one to say that Tones For Joan's Bones is the one essential album from Mr. Corea . In my view , the compositions , solos and swing on that album are unmatched by anything else in his oeuvre , save perhaps Now He Sings , Now He Sobs .
  5. 25 posts in this thread , but no answer to the original question , so again........If the CD cover ( first cover below ) is the original Argo LP cover , what's the story on the other two covers ? I could understand it if this was a mono vs. (fake) stereo thing , or a Cadet reissue thing , but that doesn't appear to be the case here .
  6. Nope . It's PREV-IT .
  7. With a cover like that , that record's gotta have some seoul
  8. I know this is a pretty old post and it may have been mentioned recently, but the old links don't work anymore, presumably since Mosaic recenty changed their web site.

The personnel and instrumentation reflect only the titles represented in this set. 78 label abbreviations: ARC for American Record Corporation (from mid 1935 to early 1938, ARC masters were issued with the same catalog number on Banner, Melotone, Oriole, Perfect and Romeo and will be designated by ARC in each case), Ban for Banner, Br for Brunswick, Cl for Clarion, Col for Columbia, Cq for Conqueror, Dec for Decca, Dom for Domino, Har for Harmony, Od for Odeon, OK for OKeh, Mt for Melotone, Or for Oriole, Par for Parlophone, Per for Perfect, Ro for Romeo, SE for Special Editions, VT for Velvet Tone and Voc for Vocalion. Brunswick, Odeon, Parlophone, Rex and Vocalion issues with an (E) were originally pressed in England. Odeon and Parlophone issues with an ONY or PNY prefix are New York pressings.Brunswick, Melotone and Vocalion masters that were recorded prior to December 1, 1931 are not included since they are currently under license with Universal Music. In addition to the regular 78s released to the public, ARC also recorded background music for use in theaters only which were almost always instrumentals ranging from organ solos to dance band material. Pressed with the same matrix on both sides of a 10" 78 rpm recording ("F" series) as well as a 33 1/3 rpm recording ("E" series), these rare "Theater-Use" sides were cut as part of a regular ARC session. As with some previous Mosaic sets, we have enlisted a number of musicians and jazz scholars to participate in a round table discussion to ascertain, to the best of our knowledge, the personnel for these sessions. Unraveling who is present on these sessions is a daunting task, especially when it concerns the ARC Studio (or House) Band, and therefore we invited both Bozy White and Jeff Healey into the fray. Mr. Healey, who also assisted us with our Beiderbecke/Trumbauer/Teagarden and Venuti/Lang box sets, is a highly regarded musician and collector whose fine ear was of enormous help in determining the personnel and unearthing rare Berigana. Mr. White is the premier Berigan discographer for over 50 years and without his input this discography would have been riddled with errors and omissions. His long awaited Bunny Berigan discography (which will also devote an entire chapter to recordings previously thought to contain Berigan - some 600 titles!), is scheduled for publication in the year 2003, and will be offered privately through Bozy White, Box 10208, Oakland, Ca. 94610-0208. This germ of this discography stems from the following reference materials: Jazz Records 1897-1942 Fifth Edition by Brian Rust (Storyville), The Jazz Discography by Tom Lord (Cadence Jazz Books), Jimmy Dorsey: A Study In Contrasts by Robert L. Stockdale (Scarecrow Press), Bunny Berigan: The ARC Years 1931-1936 (IAJRC 1013 CD) discography by Bozy White, Artie Shaw: A Musical Biography and Discography by Vladimir Simosko (Scarecrow Press). The following is a collective personnel of those who were employed by the American Record Corporation during the 1930s and who could very well be the "unknowns" that are listed in this discography: Benny Baker, Jules Berkin, Stirling Bose, Mickey Bloom, Bob Effros, Hymie Farberman, Fred Farrar, Louis Garcia, Harry Gluck, Tommy Gott, Frank Guarente, Mannie Klein, Charlie Margulis, Bill Moore, Phil Napoleon, Tommy Thunen, Ruby Weinstein, Mannie Weinstock, Lloyd Williams (tp) (Sylvester Ahola is another trumpeter employed by ARC, but he wrote to Bozy White stating he never did get to record with Berigan), Larry Altpeter, Will Bradley, Charlie Butterfield, Chuck Campbell, Tommy Dorsey, Sammy Lewis, Carl Loeffler, Glenn Miller, Jack Teagarden, Lloyd Turner, Joe Yukl (tb), Larry Binyon, Lyle Bowen, Arnold Brilhart, Bob Chester, Wally Curtis, Jimmy Dorsey, Alfie Evans, Max Farley, Elmer Feldkamp, Fran Frey, Benny Goodman, Mutt Hayes, Chet Hazlett, Bennie Krueger, Tony Parenti, Pete Pumiglio, Arthur Rollini, Hank Ross, Babe Russin, Sid Stoneburn, Henry Wade, Larry Tice (reeds), Harry Bluestone, John Bowman, Nat Brusiloff, Al Duffy, Walter Edelstein, Bernard Hirsch, Harry Hoffman, Murray Kellner, Lou Kosloff, Lou Raderman, Joe Raymond, Joe Venuti (vln), Frank Banta, Rube Bloom, Irving Brodsky, Lew Cobey, Fulton McGrath, Joe Meresco, Milt Rattenberg, Justin Ring, Arthur Schutt, Frank Signorelli, Joe Sullivan, Bobby Van Eps, Phil Wall (p), Perry Botkin, Clay Bryson, John Cali, Tony Colucci, Tommy Fellini, Larry Hall, Carl Kress, Eddie Lang, Dick McDonough, Benny Mortell, Tony Sacco, Frank Sylvano, Roy Smeck, Frank Worrell (g, bjo), Artie Bernstein, Dick Cherwin, Ward Lay, Lou Shoobe, Sam Shoobe, Hank Stern, Joe Tarto (b, tu), Larry Gomar, George Hamilton Green, Joe Green, Stan King, Chauncey Morehouse, Johnny Morris, Sam Weiss, Johnny Williams (d). Although Victor Young was the house director from early 1931 to mid 1934, there were others who filled in as the occasion arose. They were Dick Cherwin, Lou Gold, Ed Kirkeby and Bennie Krueger. When Young left ARC in August of 1934 to join the newly formed (American) Decca company, trombonist, pianist and leader Russ Morgan and veteran bandleader Jack Shilkret were appointed house directors until the demise of ARC in 1938. Morgan brought to the studios, in addition to some of the above list of musicians, the following collective personnel: Russ Case, Pee Wee Erwin, Harry Shilkret, Dave Wade (tp), Mark Bennett, Jerry Colonna, Jack Jenney, Red Jessup, Jack Lacey, Russ Morgan, George Mazza, Al Philburn (tb), Rudy Adler, Dick Clark, Dave Harris, Johnny Ingram, Slats Long, Joe Marsala, Lou Martin, Reggie Merrill, Johnny Mince, Toots Mondello, George Napoleon, Gene Prendergast, Paul Ricci, Gil Rodin, Adrian Rollini, Sam Ruby, Andy Sannella, Artie Shaw, Sid Trucker, Milt Yaner (reeds), Mac Ceppos (vln), Frank Froeba, Harry Merker, Russ Morgan, Terry Shand, Jack Shilkret, Claude Thornhill (p), Dave Barbour, Carmen Mastren (g), Cozy Cole, Billy Gussak, Neil Marshall, Milt Schlesinger (d). There may very well be others who are excluded from these lists. ________________________________________________________________________ (A) FRANK AUBURN AND HIS ORCHESTRA (FRED RICH ORCHESTRA): poss.

Producer's Note: The selections presented here are all of Bunny Berigan's Brunswick, Parlophone and Vocalion sessions as a leader as well as the Mildred Bailey and Bud Freeman-led Parolophone dates in which he played a significant role. We have also included selected ARC sides where Berigan as a sideman, offers a significant solo passage or obbligato. We have not included a number of recordings where a short Berigan solo is strictly a paraphrase on the melody, regardless of whether it be from a commercial dance band arrangement or within a jazz context. Therefore you will not find in this collection such Berigan items as Let's Try Again by Smith Ballew or Was That the Human Thing To Do?by the Boswell Sisters. Although Love Letters in the Sand(session E) falls into this category, we have decided to include it for its rarity. Although the sound quality of these sessions will differ from track to track, we have made every effort to obtain the best possible source material, be it the original metal parts, test pressings or commercially released 78s. However, we would like to point out the following problems: Session (Y) Underneath the Harlem Moon was in very bad condition and search for a better copy proved fruitless; Session (DDD) had excessive echo in the metal parts possibly due to problems with the wax master. We commend all those listed above who worked so creatively
  10. If this is the version with the martini glass, I used to have that. The ojc issue uses the mono cover. Great record.
  11. Since a little more than half the cost of a gallon of gas in the U.S. is a function of crude oil prices , and since crude oil prices have recently risen at a 100% annual rate , it is the global supply and demand for crude oil that explains the rise of U.S. gas prices in the face of falling U.S. demand . In Europe and other regions where crude oil prices make up as little as a fifth of the pump price , gas prices haven't risen nearly as dramatically as in the U.S. . With respect to the global supply and demand for crude oil , it is well to remember that annual miles driven are increasing rapidly in the developing world even as they are declining in the U.S. .

  14. by all means. let's save the attacks for long-time members of the community who ask the going price for rare items. I exposed your hypocrisy , and now in a rush to regain your sense of moral superiority , you go and quickly confirm your hypocrisy with this attempt to do what you accused me of doing ( derailing a seller's thread ) . You psychologists really are just so much more self-aware than the rest of us :rolleyes: :lol: Chas, No need to continue this BS Shane Why did you then ??

  16. On the one hand , I don't like it either when people look upon this community as only another market , and yet he is offering a discount to members , so I suppose we shouldn't come down too hard on the guy . Still , I would welcome some fresh input around here from anyone , so long as it doesn't add to the surfeit of non-jazz discussions now encumbering the board .
  17. With those two signs on the thing , the only butt that's gonna be smoked is your own !
  18. This pretty much sums up my experience/exposure . Never laid eyes on those Coral sides or that solo date he did in '65 for Dot . Here're a couple of pics of Johnny : Here you can see his famously small hands And here he is looking like Jean-Paul Sartre
  19. A few not mentioned so far : Mel Powell ( Melvin Epstein ) Don Randi ( Don Schwartz ) Jerry Lloyd ( Jerome Hurwitz ) Lennie Hambro Ralph Sharon Dave Grusin Johnny Glasel Hal Stein
  20. Let me get this straight . The gravamen of your objection is now that I was responsible for taking this thread somewhere the thread starter didn't intend . Given how long you've been around here and witnessed literally thousands of threads go to places not intended by their starters , I can't help but see your concern as utterly disingenuous . I was criticized , I responded , and the thread went where it did , and not in accordance with any malice on my part . It should be apparent that I value reason , and thus that the kind of peer-pressure-absent-reasoned-discourse found in your posts , Kevin's and especially Erik's , does not incline me to change my behavior .
  21. He got his starting price, not his desired price! He desired to get as much as the market would bear. You felt it necessary to deflate the value of his offering. You chimed with your post while the auction was still running. Look, it's all about timing. If you had posted what you did after the auction, it's no big deal. You talk about a "community" but you just screwed Parkertown!! You're an idiot. More rubbish . If timing is really the issue for you then how is that there have been many , many posts in the "Ebay Craziness" thread regarding active auctions , potentially affecting some member's "desired" sales price , and not one reproving word out of you ??
  22. One of Freddie's best , and the engineering is terrific - my Liberty copy sounds better than the Connoisseur CD !
  23. Head On has always been my least favorite Hutcherson-Land record , so the only way I would have been interested in picking up this CD is if the previously unissued tracks were considerably better than the ones on the original vinyl . Sounds like this isn't the case , and that the problem ( as on the original tracks ) is the Todd Cochran charts . Thanks for the report . I wonder if the six unissued tunes Hutcherson-Land recorded for Blue Note in December 1971 are any better....
  24. And your post shows you appear to be clueless as to how to construct a good analogy . This is a community here , not some impersonal sellers emporium with faceless customers . I want sellers to get the highest price they can , and buyers to get the lowest price they can . I hope you don't fancy yourself a defender of free markets , for they depend on information being non-asymmetrically distributed . As it happens , sellers here often offer prices lower than the going rate as a way of giving something back to this community . An expectation of this has developed such that every so often a seller's prices are pointed out as being out-of-line . I don't recall charges of "bad form" being tossed about in those instances . exactly what do you see as your role here on the board? is it your responsibility to protect the rest of us from making a bad decision by paying [what you think is] too much for an item, thereby justifying your "outing" the creator of this thread? personally, i don't care about the issue of downloading as it pertains to the situation we have here. and as far as I know, there's no rule to prevent you from competing with another seller by offering the same item on your own thread. what i object to is your decision to derail another member's thread, and even more so, your assertion that you have the right to do so in the interest of people like me who buy cds from other board members. i don't know of anyone here who holds you responsible for protecting the interests of us buyers, and i for one would appreciate your refraining from doing what you did again. Since the seller got his asking price , just exactly how is it that I "derailed" his thread ? I can understand how a seller could resent my looking out for the interests of the buyers here , but your pique is a little harder to understand . Your resentment seemingly springs from the fact that I wasn't duly anointed by you to look out for buyers , otherwise you would have simply said that you have no personal interest in the information I added . Or perhaps you're saying that you don't know anyone who cares about paying the lowest price possible , in which case I would infer that you must move in some pretty well-heeled social circles that are not representative of the community here . Why aren't all you people ( who are ever so solicitous of sellers ) arguing that the "Ebay Craziness" thread can on occasion "interfere" with other members' sales and should thus be abolished ? If that thread is kosher , then I suppose our disagreement boils down to whether posts that could potentially affect a seller's sale and/or price are rightly only made in separate threads . Appreciate the effort Al , but my earlier attempt at jocularity with this bunch in here should have demonstrated the futility of it . Thanks, but I've been on this board a helluva long time, and you won't find a more jocular bunch. Agreed . By "this bunch" , I meant the po-faced types haunting this particular thread .
