Thanks, EKE! (However, I did not buy it... I sure got to buy some release of this stuff some day, but I was only browsing the M&A site and found this disc). ubu

font size = 1 or 2? font size 4 or 5, made for 20 or so pages... but a good read! ubu

That sounds one hell of an album. Some of my favourite tunes on there; '... Paper Moon', 'You're Looking At Me' and 'What Is There To Say?' Thanks. This IS one hell of an album! Guests Sweets, Stuff & Willie Smith and Juan Tizol add very much! Get it! (There's been a recent remastering, by the way) ubu

Hey, Catesta - did you post your answers? Otherwise: move out of this thread NOW! ubu

I got a bit carried away (and finished all the beer in the house ), sorry it came out so long. Hope people will read and reacrt anyhow. (subliminal message: BUY QUARTET OUT!) Length is no problem at all! I like it. I made a 12x12cm print out of Sngry's post and put that right into the jewel cases of the discs. Nice to re-read when listening to the disc at a later point! ubu

They have such a crappy website, and such a strang reissue policy... You're right - only later I noticed that it's not updated and none of the Muse reissues is listed. To use the search function of some online shop will get one better results, I guess ... But the strange reissue policy is common to almost all labels with a jazz vault at this point in time . Fantasy might be the exeption among the bigger ones. Otherwise, I rather agree with you. ubu

yep, and the Giuffre stuff should be bouth in the Giuffre Mosaic, as long as that one's around. I have very few of the Collectables (one Chris Connor I found very cheap, and the Blakey Night in Tunisia/Lerner & Loewe set) - and one reason is sound is suspect to me, too. ubu

by the way HUGE OUCH again, as I have "The Ear of the Behearer" (it's been quite some time though, since I heard it last). ubu

Thanks for posting the replies, John! I hugely enjoyed your set! HELL, I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE IBRAHIM TRACK!! I will read your post tonight, and may answer/post some more here. Sangrey, send me your CD anytime (GO SPAM and link us to your site here, this is the chance to sell some!) The Mangelsdorff track is very good - would love to have that sucker! ubu

EKE (or anyone who knows): how does this Music & Arts CD compare to the Storyvilles? Everything from the M&A also on Storyville? ubu

Thanks, gotta look if it's still there. ubu

Ordered both. Thanks, jazz1! (thanks, too, for killin' my budget... ) ubu

And thanks again! You're right about Getz/Gilberto #2 most probably. There are several tracks without Getz, there. Steve Kuhn! Cool. Don't ask me why I did not have the idea to check AMG myself -_- ubu

Thanks, Lon! I was wondering, because the box was around somewhere here, and I only got CDRs (from the old CDs) of Jazz Samba and Jazz Samba Encore, and don't have Au Go Go at all - so the box might be the way to go. Remastering should be fairly good, too, I guess. ubu

I only have "on Duke's birthday" which is great. I had 2 lps "Love for sale" and the Rossini, live in Zurich one, which was on Hat Art, maybe you could find them in Switzerland?? wishful thinking... sadly, hats are incredibly hard to find here (except for the latest hatOLOGIES), and they're incredibly prized, too! (38 CHF, which these days is around 25 Euros or 28/29 US$ - totally crazy, no?) I will try looking for the Rossini, though. There's one used vinyl store here - maybe I'm lucky... thanks. ubu

Lots of confusion here. Alan Bates (English record producer) bought the Debut catalog in the '60s. He had a deal with Fontana to issue his stuff. As mergers progressed the lps started to show up on Polydor along with original Bates recordings (Dexter, Webster, Bud, etc). Bates eventually consolidated his holdings as Black Lion and Freedom. In the early cd era he got in financial trouble and was forced to sell/forfeit the masters to a German outfit operating as DA Music. DA is currently leasing masters to something marketed as 1201 Music in the US. Bates/Black Lion/Freedom did issue all the European sourced Fantasy issues and a bunch more. Alan Bates managed to hold on to the Candid catalog and operates it today. Chuck, Bates did lease some Candid stuff, too, didn't he? German ZYX did produce Candid CDs, and more recently TIM/Past Perfect had (still has, actually) Candid CDs on the market. Those 1201 releases show up here, too, but very expensive. They seem generally to be better remastered than DA's Black Lion CDs, no? ubu

How does his playing on this date compare to the Pacific dates collected in the Pass Mosaic? ubu

Lon, doesn't that box omit one or two stray cuts? The albums should be "Jazz Samba", "Jazz Samba Encore", "Getz/Gilberto", "Getz/Gilberto #2" (which has more tracks, I think, then are in the box, no?), "Getz Au Go-Go" and "Getz/Almeida". btw, Lon, can you give the complete personnel listings for the Getz/Almeida date? I got the single CD issue (late eighties), and it does list no piano player, for instance. thanks, ubu

It's on this puppy too: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&u...l=A5xktk6rx9krw ubu

jazz1, I cannot provide that CD you're looking for (I have none of the Westbrook's discs), but I did hear the Turner in Uri project (that festival which comissioned it, Alpentone - meaning "sounds of the alps" - was almost completely broadcasted on swiss radion. And that Turner in Uri piece was rather something! Can you give some recommendations where to start with Westbrook(s)? Some things that are easy to find, maybe? ubu

Mike, I never heard her. Can you recommend some of her CDs? Or one of them, as a starter? ubu

Milan - do you have the Capitol stuff? I'll send you an email probably tomorrow - thanks a lot for yours! ubu

They have such a crappy website, and such a strang reissue policy... almost seems like Mr Lubinsky's still around there somewhere... ubu

Lon, this looks like a good one, going from the very few informations AMG gives. How about "Casa Forte"? While it's not her best album, it certainly does include some pretty good stuff, too. I think it has not yet been mentioned. ubu

CDs on its way! It will sure have a nice new home in my collection, next to the other ten or twelve Merrill albums... ubu
