Not overlooked, as all of 13 people (including organisers) went to his last Zurich gig. Seriously: very good musician, most certainly overlooked indeed!

The J.J. is very dear to me, too! The Teddy Wilson also crossed my mind. The Art Hodes ... I still hope to score it some day (get in touch if you have one to give away!) Missed the "Piano Moods", but the "Master Jazz Piano" one is quite nice, too.

since Niko forgot to mention him (): Jacques Pelzer and big yes on Günter Kronberg! let me also throw in Jan "Ptaszyn" Wroblewski - while I don't care for most eastern european fusion or jazz-rock, he did some great things! also, looking elsewhere ... might be s a stretch to mention Dudu Pukwana, but a few other ZA guys like Lulu Masilela, Barney Rachabane, Basil Coetzee, Robbie Jansen, Winston "Mankunku" Ngozi, Ntemi Piliso or Kippie Moeketsi definitely deserve mention. Also the sadly deceased Zim Ngqawana. Some of them may still be well known in ZA, but not far beyond that and beyond a small fan base. But they all have their say on the instrument. Piliso is kind of a Hodges-like figure, while Kippie was the one introducing modern sounds into ZA jazz, alongside Dollar Brand. Hard to find much by any of them, alas.

This thread is weird.

took me a while (had some computer issues to fix before I could check any audio files) ... now it's there, I guess you'll find it (not sure if a link would be okay or not, it's not a "bootleg", no one earns a penny from it, but still ...)

I think this is the CPE Bach disc I've enjoyed most so far: here's an annoyingly worded laudatory blurb from ClassicsToday (10/10 rating): source: http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=40063

Terrific track!

yes But count them. That's why my post says fictitious ... and adds an emoticon. Thought that was clear enough. You do have me curious about that Lil/Dodds et al. date though!

Sorry, wasn't aware how old this thread was ... regardless, this is better (a trailer for the more recent DVD edition, it seems): much better, in fact!

Ever heard of one Erik Satie?

this one here, I assume: http://arthaus-musik.com/dvd/musik/oper/media/details/ariadne_auf_naxos-2.html not sure what to think of Grist after playing this: not easy to understand a word (sound quality or lack thereof might be to blame, Strauss, too), somewhat thick accent - but the voice somehow gets me the wrong way ... the recording, if it's the one you're talking about, has been on DVD at least twice it seems (I found 2004 and 2014 editions listed on Amazon). btw, it's Jurinac, and she was great indeed http://www.theguardian.com/music/2011/nov/23/sena-jurinac-obituary

They ship from any warehouse, no matter whether you order from the French, Italian, Spanish, German or UK site. And the French of course invented the guillotine a while ago ... but I guess today others should get acquainted with it as well, besides royals.

Maybe, but as with Niehaus (I know you love his music!), when do you ever read about him. It would really help indeed to have some kind of definition when such threads are started, so we all could at least try and be on the same page. And funnily the Dutch (I think?) seem not to underrate anyone

Ah, I see. Well, of zero interest then.

Loved "Ida"! And intrigued about that unknown/unreleased Coltrane - more info, please!

Not sure if this is the right thread, but "Mingus Three", the 1957 trio album with Hampton Hawes and Dannie Richmond nowadays belongs to Universal, I assume (Jubilee > Blue Note > EMI > Universal, whatever, why don't the majors just merge into one and then find new majors on Pluto to gulp and grow even fatter? but free markets is good, fersure) ... so, cdjapan just sends me one of their hourly updates, and it says Mingus Three + 8, and I wonder what that means ... would of course be amazing if those were alternates, outtakes, whatever, but I guess the explanation is of some other nature? link: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/OTCD-4829?utm_source=MAIL&utm_medium=text-genre&utm_campaign=Jazz-20150730-genre-OTCD-4829

I'm with Lon there ... and I'm having a bit of hard time reading these complaints about sound and an even harder time reading those ridiculous over-the-top accusations. But maybe that's just me. Nothing to see, walk on.

when did ones and zeros start having rarity value?

Lennie Niehaus

indeed! happy birthday!

recommended!

just had to check, but yeah, yippie, I'm in

I just remember that they said 7 discs was the ideal size.

Good move! And yes, it's really sad the Select series went belly-up - have most of them and really enjoy them! Too bad they weren't profitable.

Thanks for clarifying, l p! Yeah, would be cool to see a 1974/75 set for sure! But I'd love to see the 1971 and 1973 bands/tours see entire sets being dedicated to them as well!
