Here’s a good recent article on Kenmotsu — and apparently it was his first 1992 leader-date, The Spark, that was on Asian Improv.

Very interesting how the article talks about The Spark. I personally own it but have not played it much due to its straight forward sound as opposed to most Asian Improv releases. Very nice to read about his experience, and how it relates to this release.

Bob Kenmotsu released an album on Asian Improv, a label I’m very fond of.
-
That was a fascinating read. Thank you
-
I’m looking forward to this release as well as the Immanuel Wilkins coming soon too

What else is there to do, but break down completely, and stop functioning, like any other living creature? I bet Shatner makes death jokes every single day.
My grandpa who’s 97 or 98 has been making the same death joke for 20 years.

If I had to speculate wildly I would guess UMG has no interest in the previously printed material. They aren’t going to take the time to sell them.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Hypnotic Eye 2LP version

Not that he is for everyone but James Bookers set from Onkel Po’s is excellent as well.

I’m planning on framing the contact sheet for una mas with a mono first pressing.

There doesn’t appear to be a huge clamoring for these. My first order was #385 and my second 6hrs later #388.

Some are still available, but I bet not for long. I bought a couple. They only have had one or two silver gelatin prints of each. For instance, I bought Ornette on violin, and Clifford Brown with Jimmy Heath, and they are now marked as SOLD OUT.
I called Mosaic, and exchanged emails with M.C. The silver gelatin prints won't be available after these are gone. The ones they still have are 1994-1995 darkroom prints.
The contact sheets are amazing, and are an intimate look into Wolff's process, but I didn't buy one. Maybe I should. $500 is steep, but they are unique. I doubt they'll be available again.
Thanks! The images I got aren’t there anymore. The site is a bit archaic. I was finding everything under the sale link but they aren’t there anymore. I sprung from the large Kenny Dorham Una Mas contact sheet after hearing UMG will be the new owner. Probably the last chance to get these ever.

Appears most images are unavailable now. The gelatin prints are gone.

I picked a Sonny Rollins and Kenny Dorham gelatin pictures.

Is today the first "not Bandcamp Friday"?
That’s correct. It looks like artist are co-opting “Bandcamp Friday” into a new release day thing.

I returned it got a second copy. The second is the dirtiest new record I have ever seen. There is a lot of terrible junk all over these records. cleaned it, sounds good .... but this is awful Quality Control !!!It’s a mixed bag. Given these recordings started at 1945 it’s impressive to say the least. Just don’t go in thinking this a Audiophile Jazz recording. Some sections sound great, others not so much. The vinyl itself was dirty, after a cleaning it played fine with the normal amount of pops and clicks throughout. The box is pretty nice.Sounds good and a nice package but every LP was dirty/discolored and full of fingerprints. I was surprised it sounded as good as it does. Not sure where it was pressed (not on the shrink so it’s definitely not somewhere worth mentioning). Quality control is lacking
People on discogs are funny. I actually have never gotten upset that a record is dirty. I clean every record before I spin it anyway. You would think someone spending the money they were asking for this set would know that’s the cost of buying vinyl.
I would expect a record from the Electric Recording company to be clean but that’s a $500 new record.

It appears all good things must come to an end.

I believe Krieg Wunderlich was the mastering engineer at the time for CDs. I remember reading Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs didn’t put the info because they were about the label not the engineer or something goofy like that. It was their in house stable doing the remastering though.

Do you all actually play your 78s? I never bought any because I didn’t want to go through the trouble to play them.

I was at this show. Too bad it’s not on CD.
Black editions so sometimes releases cds in Japan.
edit: never mind. I got it backwards. Black editions released an album on vinyl after the cd issue in another label.

You're skipping over the part about him playing an instrument associated with jazz and getting acclaim as a jazz musician.
If there existed a "smooth jazz" chart and recognition of "best selling smooth jazz artist" I wouldn't remotely give a shit about him and his music.
That’s my point. He isn’t claiming he’s a jazz musician. Others are and by giving merit to everyone’s opinion he’s being dragged by people who “don’t give a shit about Kenny G” but clearly do.

Any new recommendations on this front. I’m pretty much tired of trying to get Collectorz to do the basing things anymore. I just want to input on my computer and transfer it to the mobile app. It used to work easily but now it appears they want you to upload to their cloud for some reason and their cloud is awful.
