Gosh. What a great pity and what a contribution to the world of jazz Don Made. Thanks for letting us know Dan

Wow that Live at the Left Bank sure is tempting and been listening to a few samples so now might have to buy a copy! Nice find

Well I have all three - the Ruppli, the Swing Journal (alongside those for many other labels) and now these interesting 4 volumes and I find them all helpful and interesting. What I find I enjoyed was Tad's writing and input - not facts - I have the Ruppli etc for those (and many of the LPs/CDs also) I never saw this as a discography but as a blog (which I happened to have completely missed online - now in print) - a document about "listening to" Prestige with yes - some facts missing or lack of access to all the music available - that was never the point for me.

I am SO grateful for this coming up as I have now (in a fit of utter recklessness(not for the first time)) ordered the paper back volumes 1 to 4. I have to say I have been pouring over Volume 1 since they dropped and I am so impressed and a huge thanks @ListeningToPrestige for your effort, passion and notes - fantastic - absolutely fantastic idea.

I see now what you mean. Well: A records are never 100% readable or written down correctly B My stories have got slightly embellished over the years and changed somewhat - dont think I am alone. C May have been the info from the transfer tape changed to the records when mixed

I think sometimes that as new info comes out then occasionally the session order gets corrected however I thought that this was related to new titles/mix ups since addressed by those present etc....why...what you found that makes you doubt this?

I only just noticed the filled letters - and I have seen this often - there is so much visually I miss. For me - new covers for the 70's usually work well. Off now to listen to Love Drops from Mothership

Kicked me out of a desert of music to get Pax back on - Calliope here we come!

What a lovely resource - not all my cup of tea but this little gem looked interesting: https://www.otrcat.com/p/jazz-club-usa

Wow - this would be lovely to see when the resources and audio can work in tandem

Great recording - listened to it last night - however please note I have a faulty last 2 tracks which skip and seem poorly printed to CD - not the live recording. I note others have had similar issues - so be warned. However the other tracks were beeeeautiful to listen to so still worth it. Lets see if my replacement is any better.

This is helpful intel - so I am diving in and ordering this and the Freddie Hubbard set AND to cap it The Three Sounds live recordings as well -- and finally got the Joe Henderson and McCoy Tyner  live set I figured I rarely see live music and never saw these guys at the time (pre birth ) so will treat myself over the next 3-5 months

I quite like Lonnie Smiths The Awakening from Afrodesia - not too many good tracks on there but this was one and a few less rinky dinky Groove Holmes tracks were worth hunting out like this and also paired him off with Jimmy McGriff - this was recorded live Boston More info on the label here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groove_Merchant and loads of resources here http://www.jazzlists.com/SJ_Label_Groove_Merchant.htm I am now off disappearing down a 1970s organ fest rabbit hole as it reminded me to go find Reuben Wilson Sweet Life Yes!

TV networks have been churning out worse with less plot changes - this even if it runs to ground with a note to say the recording was awful - would at least close the file.

Cue very dramatic music ! The plot thickens......
