I stumbled on to this site: http://www.thedisckiosk.com/ Seems they can produce a CD-R on a one-off basis for a large no. of (mostly rock) OOP CD titles. This is a blurb from their site: CDs - ON DEMAND! (CDO) - During the last 20 years, while CDs have remained the public's music format of choice, manufacturing technology has advanced to the point where professional pressings can be made to order. This is great news for the many old classics, rarities, and titles that you may only have on vinyl - albums thought to be lost to the archives forever, now available again through CD On Demand. CD On Demand is an officially manufactured product; the re-released albums are exact copies of the music from the original recordings and have the same cover artwork. Packaging is kept to a basic generic format, using booklet cover artwork (see example here). While it is a simplified version of the original pressing, it has passed all the record companies' quality checks for audio content and artwork reproduction HOW DOES IT WORK? The music is digitised and manufactured to the CD without audio compression, i.e. "Red Book" standard. The CD's physical specifications, tracks, and sampling are as per the original masters. This ensures the listener is hearing the music in its full recording quality. The processes used for the manufacture of CD On Demand takes CDR technology to a new dimension. The CDs are an audio-optimised CDR media with a true silver coloured surface. The CDRs we are using are fully compatible with any CD-Audio or CD-ROM player. (You can read more about compatibility here). WHERE ARE THEY? CD On Demand titles are categorised and arranged alongside our 200,000+ CD range. A title currently unavailable on CD may now reappear in CD search listings, with a CD On Demand logo. More titles available means more choice all round!

Agree, they both kick ass!!

Saw over at Jazzmatazz that Calvin Keys has a new one coming out. There are clips on the Wide Hive web site. Sounds interesting - not earthshattering, but some cool, soulful stuff.

I would like to see Compulsion and the Hubbard/Henderson session come out on CD (plus the one with Sam Rivers). I believe these three are the only ones from the Mosaic set that have not come out on individual CD (now that we have the Hill Select).

I used to catch her on my drive home from work and then they switched it to 3:00 PM. A little early to cut out. Too bad for me - she does a great job!

I voted way back when and have no idea what I voted for. I actually had and LOST the Mosaic Hill set, so I have not had much of a chance to listen to Compulsion. All these albums are obviously interesting listens. The ones I enjoy the most are: Black Fire, Andrew, the One for One quintet (off lp) and Dance with Death. The ones that don't really do it for me: Grass Roots, Lift Every Voice (I can't get past the voices) and Smokestack. I did make a burn of Involution before I lost the box and I should go back and listen to it ...

Per Wikipedia: "The Muse Euterpe (pronounced "you-TER-pay") or Eutere ("rejoicing well" or "delight"), in Greek mythology, was one of the Muses, the daughters of Mnemosyne, fathered by Zeus. Called the "Giver of Pleasure", when later poets assigned roles to each of the Muses, she was the muse of music. In late Classical times she was named muse of lyric poetry and depicted holding a flute." So by coincedence, they both named a tune after the muse of music. Interesting!

Happy Birthday Paul and please say hi to Mrs. FFA for me! Eric

Is Euterpe on One For One the same as Euterpe on Contours by Sam Rivers? If so, who is the composer? OFO says Hill, Contours says Rivers ...

Twins player Kirby Puckett passes away at 44
Eric replied to HolyStitt's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Wow ... what a sad end to a life that seemed to sadly go the wrong way. He was my favorite player during his playing years (except for maybe George Brett). I feel for his kids and those close to him. -

Underrated non-BN dates from 1965 thru early 70's
Eric replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Recommendations
The Oliver Nelson Mosaic thread got me excited ... found a used copy of this cheap from GEMM. What Jim said (well, about the music, not that I am a "different" type of collector) ... this is very cool stuff -
Seems a number of the Mainstream LPs that made it to CD are now available on iTunes. I just bought Harold Land - Damisi and have seen the Terry/Brookmeyers and an Art Farmer. Still looking for more!
-
I just found Damisi on iTunes of all places ... including the two bonus cuts!

I may be in Austin March 15th or 16th. What is the best online guide to live music in town (besides this thread of course )? -
Agree, worth a look!

Greart news on the Roy Ayers. This was the first collaberation between Ayers and Jack Wilson if I am not mistaken. I think Curtis Amy is on some tracks as well.
