Here is the new vinyl eg and list for those not interested in the rest of the site Mar. 24, 2004 “Blue Note 65th Anniversary” Series, Limited Edition, by Toshiba EMI Our dream has come true - Toshiba EMI decided to release Blue Note reissues even in this year 2004! This series (20 titles) is to celebrate Blue Note's 65th anniversary. And this series has several specialities... This is the first Japanese LP reissues ever, from the tapes mastered by Rudy Van Gelder himself. I will listen to the copies tonight, but it may be the best sounding Toshiba reissues. And it must be noted that the cutting engineer of this series is the famous Toru Kotetsu, a superb cutting/pressing engineer in Japan. And all titles of this series come with coated cardboard jackets, as well as 180g heavy-weight thick flat vinyls.

Saw this on my merry search for info which people may or may not know about. Pretty good site if people have not seen it regarding Japanese Issues with fascinating info. This new lot is just out for the 65th anniversary. I do not do LPs anymore but I was drooling again http://microgroove.jp/bluenote-jpn/1989-no...JJ6501-TOJJ6520 Click through the rest of the site and you will find lots of old goodies including this page which showed the old stickers that came with the lps for the masterpiece replica series......anyone have these http://microgroove.jp/bluenote-jpn/1977-1983.shtml I will stick the stickers on the next post

Haven't you ever lost your temper online, pepe? I'm a cool Scandinavian and I never loose my temper, so just shut up or I'll come and get you, you ignorant mother******* son of a *****. (that's the best swearing I can do in English, I'm much better in my native tongue, but that does'nt help much here). Re vendetta, it appeared for a moment they at least were starting one, but apparently they, as the sensible individuals they are, cooled off. If it had escalated, I think somebody should consider stepping into the argument proposing "Shhh - Peaceful".

I remember this one on prestige which had him on on Prestige which was Shirley Scott's The Soul is Willing PR 7845 to be excat ( spot the sado) PR 7845 The Soul Is Willing / Shirley Scott Stanley Turrentine (ts) Shirley Scott (org) Major Holley (B) Grassella Oliphant (d) VGS, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, January 10, 1963 The Soul Is Willing Stolen Sweets Yes Indeed Secret Love Remember I Feel All Right Tada Cannot yet find anything else Andy

Now you have both lost me (which I admit is not hard) I appreciate the info and input both have you have given to the board (s) but there is no need for either of you to snipe at each other through us. Both of you should chill for a bit and remember what this place is about. Just take a look at what the alternatives are. I for one feel this has to end and go back to being the better place we all know it really is or do we go back to self serving back biting ? Let this end please? The old forum got bogged like a Friday night bar brawl every now and again with really negative comments or inputs that were at best offensive but sometimes were worse and I would hate for one to see that happen again here. Can you both not accept this? Kevin, your input has helped so many people regarding matters Blue Note and beyond and Jim's has also so let that be an end

this is the other title for those that do not have that either. It is a lovely Grant Green John Patton type set

I have the same japanese edition and it is excellent.l I also had the other Grassella title from the same era on LP when I had those things and that was a really nice surprise. I would like to find the other title eventually if it ever comes but they were both nice The sound certainly cleaned up with the cd for the grass is greener

Nice to see my post got some coverage on the Blue Note site and they still have shut me down! As for the replies I am getting worried by weird nature of some of their interest watch this now Maybe they did not get the joke over there. Anyway lets ping it back Hello from the organissimo forum! bounce!

Must admit we seem to have got a decent site here compared with when it was being full of hate and anger over at BnBB The thing that I do not miss was the back biting especially that bastard EDITED and his mate edited also who really was a pain ...joking aside. I much appreciate the independance we get here which seems to have ( recent moaning aside) gone away. There was moaning about posts, ebay heads up, sniping about trades, name dropping. This board has everything I need ( is this enough now????) and it looked kind of cold and empty when I went for a browse on BBNB Yurp. I came and went from the old blue note board because of the problems it had but I have stayed here and enjoy it. This site works nuff said Andy Bleaden alias Norah Jones

Well after reading all that negativaty I can now remember what it was like on the BBNB ( where I andybleaden cunningly appeared as....wait for it A Bleaden.....see you never would have guessed it! This was appalling and needed colnic irrigation for those invovled with the nasty N Jones episodes........dreadful I will go at once and check the site out and just to post the rest of this message here. By the way considering the last link I changed my name to Norah Jones Ta da Who will take a bet on how long I last without huge legal expenditure PS The name is for sale for $0.10 with free postage and packing

I got a Lee Morgan set from Ebay .UK only about 4 months ago for about £60 (about $100) ! If the mosaic prices are going up like this in general it looks as if i'll never get the Larry Young or Andrew Hill . Do not give up hope of finding them. You can still get them. I was lucky with these as I got them the nano second that they were released but I have picked up a few since that were OOP Let me know if you are really struggling to get them. You never know they might pop up in a second hand charity shop in Bedminster! ( I am Bristolian moved up north) Andy Bleaden

Anyone able to help find a reasonable copy of this please. Or the cds that are within it. I would prefer the box set through if possible Offers or help please either via forum,pm or email Cheers Andy

Well I used to have the videos. One off the tv and one prerecorded. I thought the dvd was brilliant and very good quality especially the sound and picutre quality. I also thought the added extras were good too and really enjoyed them. Andy

Just been browsin looking for something else but found this which I have not seen before. Usual nonsense ie it is not mine blah blah just posted for interest Must admit it looks kind of strange B) http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...&category=52630

I liked the out of the blue set but for me the worst disappointment was the Kenny Clarke and Francis Boland set which I barely listened to. I rememeber it took me ages to find and then when it arrived it was so annoying. Never sold it but was sorely tempted as it was an expensive TOCJ at the time. Another non score for me was a surprise and was Jimmy Smith Crazy Baby which I thought would be a cooker but I rarely listen to it now. Andy

Already got mine sorted through Hiroshi so I just have to wait for a few more to come out to complete an order and then it will be on its way. As for the Flip it does not sound like the other Blue Notes of the period becasue of where it was recorded but it still is very fresh and slightly better than what I had originally not to dis the generous person who lined me up with a burn as I was very grateful. By the way if anyone in the UK is debating about buying it I will lend them the cdr that I have and then they can make up their mind but I would go ahead and get it as it was unavailable for soooooooooooooooooooooo long

Good news all mine came through at the really cheap price and I really like the Andrew HIll Passing Ships. Just makes me wish there was more of this great mans music around. It was nice to have a nice clean copy of Hanks The flip as well too. This was for someone with lots of Blue note cds a nice surprise indeed. Now all I am waiting for are Going West which seems along time waiting for and Ghetto Music Andy

I have to admit that it does sound like a real pain. I have the Tocj after selling the vinyl and it sounds great. If you guys do not get anywhere with Mosaic on this let me know and I will sort out a nicer sounder copy ( although I cannot understand why they cannot do this themselves!!) See how you get on with this and let me know if I can help as The Way I Feel is a great session and it is a bummer if the tape has been ruined. Andy

Oh Dear I got the same offer and I suppose I must just have to wait for a bit. I only ordered two ( the Hill and Mobley as I have Japanese versions of Sonic Boom and Procrastinator) Chin up and lets hope they honour their offer.

Well I would like to add my thanks for that as it was a really lovely piece to read in this format. Many thanks for sharing this. Andy

If it helps, I have bought the Black Rythm Happening on cd from amazon I think and I really liked it but I always had a soft spot for the title piece. The rest is also worth a listen and for the price I paid..not much it was worth a risk. I have also pre ordered the Ghetto Music here in the UK which looks pencilled in for October. Let me know if I can help anymore. Andy

Last time I looked he was shipping to the US only so I am kinda stuck. Cheers Andy

Up again for any last offers of help

I always thought the later Andrew Hill thing would be lovely. Just the idea that it would all be fresh and untouched would be great...Perhaps more a mosaic then I dunno. I also would have loved the Reuben WIlson sets to come out which could be done on a select issue. Also one perhaps to ponder over... a lost sessions special from Blue Note vaults like the mid to late sixites stuff......I loved theat one cd they put out and this would be a find as there are so many little odds and sods that a box set could cover without the financial risk of the bigger mosaic...just think all those glorious littel sets you read about in the discography... Dream dream etc for the rest of the day

I am getting gradully older and never did get this set on cd when it came out as I never knew about the sets at the time. Does anybody have a copy of the set or in particular the second disc as I have the Blue Note cd That first Day which was great which has the Ammons and duet material and the Blues set by Meade Lux Lewis . At the time Blue Note promised to put the second Lewis cd with all the rest but never did and I particularly love the harpsicord stuff. Anybody able to help me out with this one? Especially the second disc and I would much appreciate this. -_-
