using google translate on some of these, I love "Rikorekushonzu Of The Big Band Era"

I don't suppose there's a list around with all albums in words? It's a bit of a drag going through those sites and try and decipher all the covers (there's plenty of stuff unknown to me).

Actually twice the same review - but yeah, I'll definitely get this! Thanks for mentioning it!

but I guess that allows the assumption that the Euro ones are but a small choice of those (and that they might well be sonically identical then)?

oh, wow - overkill!

Ooops, I actually mentioned him because I thought he'd deserve mention here - not because you mis-spelt! I didn't see you mentioned him at all. But yes, his composing is indeed very much worth mentioning and forms an integral part of his music!

Is that the complete list? As a quick glance at it (I've seen it before, I guess it was mentioned early in this thread?) shows for instance much fewer Charles Lloyd albums (and none by Chris Connor?), the question probably is: where are the European remasters taken from? Copied from earlier Japanese reissues? It remains a mystery ...

Christophe Schweizer!

No, I was actually asking the very same: Japanese v. euro facsimiles (not the older series which I just mentioned since I still don't consider replacing/re-buying). As for the Kenyatta ... it's pretty good indeed! Recorded 1966/67 with Mike Lawrence on trumpet (he can be heard on one of Joe Henderson's Milestone albums), Roswell Rudd, Walter Booker etc. I guess it falls somewhere in the Californian variant of the "Blue Note Avantgarde" that was recently discussed here (i.e. the Simmons/Lasha, Jimmy Woods, Tapscott stuff), but I'm not sure that's a labelling that makes much sense ... haven't played it in a while, will try to remember and drop a line here when I do. No one quite know what they are ... but they can be had for as little as 4 Euro a pop on amazon.it and they include, among many others, all of Charles Lloyd's Atlantic albums, the Chris Connors just discussed, several albums by John Lewis, the MJQ, Art Farmer, Jimmy Giuffre, Milt Jackson and many others. To get an idea: http://www.amazon.it/dp/B00DD0AGRG/ http://www.amazon.it/dp/B00DS7Z3KE/ http://www.amazon.it/dp/B00DD0AGMQ/ Further ones displayed below ... there are several dozen of them around. No idea how they relate to the Japanese series (i.e. if all those Euro ones were part of the Japanese series or not, if they appear in identical batches or what - but there seem to be many more coming out of Japan, the Kenyatta being an example).

well, amazon says this: Johnny Mbizo Dyani was a South African bassist and composer who came to London as an apartheid exile with his compatriots in the racially-mixed Blue Notes group in 1964, and played a key role in the creative impact they made on British jazz in that era, before his death in 1986. This double album, also celebrating the 40th birthday of London jazz label Cadillac, catches the nimble and dramatic Dyani in a scorching free-jazz trio with the likewise shortlived trumpeter Mongezi Feza and classically trained Turkish drummer Okay Temiz, and a hollering, joyous, township-grooves septet including the great Blue Notes saxophonist Dudu Pukwana. Feza, a fizzing blend of Miles Davis and Don Cherry, leads the trio set with his fast, impulsive, fearlessly haphazard attack, while Dyani fuses implacable walks, richly sombre chordwork and audacious free-jazz countermelody. But the septet tracks are this collection's most openly attractive features featuring Dyani on electric keys and vocals, the robustly sublime Pukwana on alto sax and whistles, and a powerful electric lineup. It's mostly about catchy Dyani songs and a party vibe, but there's enough of the inimitable Pukwana's talkative, cajoling, and sometimes romantically smoky horn to keep the jazzers smiling. --The Guardian This first release in Cadillac's '40th Anniversary Series' brings together two albums by the great South African bass player Johhny Mbizo Dyani, both originally released by Cadillac on vinyl and never before issued on CD. REJOICE is a trio album with Dyani's compatriot Mongezi Feza and Turkish percussionist Okay Temiz, recorded at the Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm in October 1972, during a Swedish tour. Sadly by the time the album was actually released in 1988 only one member of the group remained, Feza having died in 1975 aged 30 and Dyani in 1986 aged 39. Both musicians had left South Africa as members of the Blue Notes group, settling in London never to return to their apartheid homeland. TOGETHER was also recorded in Stockholm, where Dyani was by then living, in Dec 1979 / Jan 1980. The group was put together specially with Dyani's old cohort Dudu Pukwana invited over from London to play. 'The music is very special. Transcending the boundaries of nations and cultures, Mbizo s enthusiasm spread and inspired the sessions with his intense passion. A passion which revelled in a nostalgia for the myths and melodies of Marabi and Kwela. Mbizo s life was music, he gave his life for music. These sessions are Mbizo s own testimony to the spirit of hope for the future, for a better world. It is a statement so filled with vitality and with the joy of rediscovered roots that it will stand as a signpost to the whole of his life and work.' (from the sleevenotes) _______ of course I had no idea (I'd miss any Ogun if not for this place, those websites have been useless except maybe to look up what else I've missed out on) - but this is seriously great news to me!

Sad news! Never managed to hear him live, but The Crusaders were part of what ultimately drew me to jazz!

Yes indeed! I don't think I've heard anything bad by Ellington anyways ... even the drabber sessions usually contain some hidden pleasures! Same goes for the box I've started listening last night and in the middle of by now:

Thanks - I try not to re-buy as well, so I can surely understand! The ones you mention (Scott, McDuff, Fathead/McDuff, Scott, Hubbad, some of the Jobims and Jacos and the Hubbard) I all have in the old european digipack series ("Atlantic Masters", "Warner Masters", the Hubbard may actually be an "Atlantic Original Sound" one). I think those aren't exactly loved for sonics, either, but they're good enough for me (and frankly none of the albums is important enough that I'd consider upgrading - I love McDuff, but his Atlantics aren't my favourites by far, the Scott and one or two of the Jobims are my favourites of these). One that I did get a while ago, in its proper Japanese version, is Robin Kenyatta's "Until" - pretty interesting album! (links: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/WPCR-27317)

Oh, great! Will have to look for it, too, then!

Yeah, because it's different, it's all the worse it's not really succesfull all 'round! Could have been a truly good one, but the organ's just too much! The two Grassella Oliphant (what a name!) ones are pretty good though - agreed on that! And the Jimmy Scott is a classic, I guess ... Now, where's the Jimmy Owens/Kenny Barron Atlantic, please? Has that one been included in any of those recent series?

I find the Stitt only half-good ... organ's a textbook example of heavy handed, clogging ... too bad, as the mid-size band and some of the arrangements are pretty nice indeed!

agreed.... Not that I really care all that much, but did you guys actually compare any albums that were released both in the proper Japanese and the Euro versions? Or is that just a general statement? Which no doubt I don't doubt, just wondering ...

Joe Chambers - one of the unsung heroes of the Blue Note avantgarde!

thx, was indeed unaware of that one!

Okay, I skipped "Chris in Person" since I have some Collectables of that one ... I also have "A Portrait of Chris Connor" from the series though, so there were at least four of them. And as they cost 4€ a pop I didn't think twice.

violin, I guess .... but not an easy call!

Is this about proper Japanese Chris Connor reissues or about those "made in Europe" ones? Or are those identical to Japanese reissues anyways? (I have bought a couple of the Euro ones, at least one was new to me ... will need to dig them up, so far I've not noticed anything, but I guess by now I'm notorious here for not bothering about these things too much.)
