That is a very interesting story, roy haynes isnt even on blue note records, lol. he was just all im roy haynes gimme a song for my father--?? what was the offices really like? ??? were they messy. were there people everywhere or was it just the two of them (al fred and frank) and thats it? i shoiuld of annotated this post, now that i think about it, but i just pasted a thread in this same ARTISTS category, about an ebay auction now for this 1957 JAZZ HOT issue, w/ a piece on Mobley, called "King of the Tenor Sax"---- do you know of this??????? i think its JJ johnson on the cover.........

the best time was in the 70s, when the cutout 2nd pressings and late period albums where 47 cents like for jackie mclean action and ABOUT HOW LATE DID THAT WHOLE WOOLWORTHS SCENE LAST FOR? DID IT EXTEND TO THE EIGHTIES??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390167754509 i emailed the guy he said its 2 pgs and called "KING OF THE TENOR SAX" w/ 2 photos brownie do u remember this?

at this rate, its going to take me till im 400 years old to re-buy all this stuff. i was such a fool, i should of started w/ lps from the get-go, instead of the cds Bluenote and prestige-- that was i was saying in the thread title........ thank god my entire Pacific Jazz collection is on lp, at least i dont need to worry about THAT...........

i got a reply from the seller, he said he asked the very famous musican who is selling it whos name he asked them not to use, said thats how he got it from bluenote........... brownie....how did U get your copies right from the bluenote offices? did you visit them when u were in NYC?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Herbie-Hancock-on-Blue-Note_W0QQitemZ300403750259QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item45f1757573 look, he says in his description, """"the sticker promoting Watermelon Man on the front serves to inform the purchaser that a 45 with an edited version of the song has been included with the LP.""""" well then look at the pics!!!!!!!!!! look, the 45, and look at the stamp on it! ------------- so we also then know they did this w/ NATURAL SOUL cause it has a similar "contains the hit single"...sticker.... ---- omg did u guys know about this? i always thought the sticker was simply refering the the album track!!!!!!

hmm well im pretty sure at least the liberty mono, is a "deep groove"...but can someone please tell me more what the "deep groove" is, so its just that little ridge on the label, is that it??!?

HMM i wonder what Vee-Jay thought abt Chess/Cadet covering those beatles songs, (hmm maybe theres a billboard article about it!).........but wait those songs are not the same tracks released on VJ....

the mono one: has the original cover. upper Left Corner says: high fidelity, instead of the BN logo and a prod of Liberty records in fineprint upper rt corner has the 4157 # stampped in usual big BN numbering, not like the stereo that has smallprint stereo////mono numbers listed labels: the mono label is a more darker more robust blue, the stereo label is a lighter shade of blue stereo label has that spot where a deep groove should be, i can feel something on the label and see someting, but its not as pronounced as the mono the mono vinyl seems thicker and/or heaver

scored a sealed OJC Please Mr Jackson today & an old copy of that SMOKING WITH WILLS (with the 3 beatles tunes) on CADET

at what point did BN stop doing seperate mono mixes again, i forget....also it looks like it has the deep groove- could that be, w/ a liberty label?? it definetly has that "groove" on teh label....

mosaic said not to worry however they havent received my envelope yet i mailed it a week ago--

wow very informative....i really need Thunderbird next i think....that ones really good huh...--

so i have two first pressings so far: Jackson n McDuff: Together again, and Willis Jackson- "JACKSON'S ACTION!" which is all funky to hell i love it, and the others pretty awesome too....but he has i notice like 30 albums on prestige, i could buy one hank record for the price id spend on all those, so do u guys have a fave that sticks out to you? how do u like the ones i scored?

I EMAILED MY CONTACT BUT OMG I CANT BELIEVE HE DIDNT WARN ME A FEW WKS AGO WHEN I ORIGINALLY CONTACTED THEM. my mobe cds are thrashed-- they really are not manufactured well, these mosaic cds. they scratch bad, VERY easily ive found out....

WELL WHAT ABOUT THE 100 DOLLAR MONEY ORDER I JUST MAILED THEM FOR A NEW COPY OF THE MOBLEY SET.....OMFG....

BTW is the liberty really the 1st press of this?!?

Fiorentina: you need to listen to Lee Morgan & Hank Mobley- The Rajah (1966, but not released till 1984....)

stereojack: just the sleeve and not the record you mean? did you do what i did?

lol

i like how she only recorded one track in the eighties...she went compelety underground.....RIP

since the stampers are vangelder im guessing they are the same stampers used for the 1st run? in that case the BLUENOTE stamp should be on the 1st press of these too? maybe tmw night i can try and snap a pic altyhough i seriously doubt my cameraphone will do it justice..........

i haven A/B'ed them but the 45, art gets a trumpet solo, horace gets a solo, theres even a bass solo, then hank come in w/ a solo last. oh and ive figured out my favorite song for my father ever is the 45, by FAR. omg side 2 of that is the best. its a fadein right in time for joes solo. its like that warne record the art of improvising. gets right to the point! you mean dick bock? are his 45 edits notoriously bad or somethjing?

eh.......what u say has some merit....but i DID file the 45 in order in my bluenote 45 book......

vangelder is stamped in the deadwax but around the corner from that there is a BLUENOTE stamp in the deadwax!!!!! never seen that one before--
