One of 4 new titles announced by NoBusiness. Marion Brown - alto saxophone Gunter Hampel - vibraphone Barre Phillips - bass Steve McCall - drums. https://www.nobusinessrecords.com/live-in-europe-1968-and-1972-marion-brown.html. Supposedly available in early May.

Saw Charlie Ballentine and his trio last night. Played new original music that was engaging, several standards and "Sub-Conscious Lee" and "When Will the Blues Leave". Currently on tour. Will be in Pittsburgh tonight and Buffalo on Saturday.

Have any recordings been issued from Lacy's tape archive? I have not seen or heard of any. If so, one wonders why not? Presumably, his estate and the archive are with Irene Aebi.

Coming out on lp and cd. Just spotted 2-cd set by elemental music at dusty groove. available may 1st. didn't see it mentioned as a RSD release

Just noticed this at DG and CDJapan. Recorded live on August 12, 1973 at Henny Onstad Center for The Arts, which is in Norway. Tunes include "Open to Love" and "Alone, Again". Carol Goss, Paul's wife/companion, illustrated the front cover.

The various Live at RoyalPalms cds are part of the Woofy discography. https://www.discogs.com/label/1460538-Woofy https://www.discogs.com/artist/6079078-Conte-Candoli-Carl-Fontana-Quintet There is a guy on eBay selling Woofy products cheap (I have no association with him). In addition, there is a Carl Fontana and John Fedchock Quintet recording date available on YT that was never released on cd.

Just about everything on the Woofy label

As we know there is an lp previewing the Tiberi Tapes coming out tomorrow. There will be a Japan only cd release available at CDJapan on June 24th.

Received the following information in an email from the current owner: Last fall, I [Eldon] began working with Paul Gold at Salt Mastering to restore and create new 24/96 transfers of Mapleshade's tape archive. The tapes are coated with varying amounts of residual soot, dirt and mold from the 2007 studio fire, but all of the ones Paul has worked with thus far still have good integrity and were able to be successfully cleaned and transferred. We have three reissues nearing completion so far: The Blue Rider Trio Preachin' The Blues: This album is especially close to my heart because it was my introduction to Pierre's recordings, played for me during my Mapleshade job interview. If you like acoustic blues, this album is really enjoyable and the recording is fabulous. The new transfer is even more nuanced, bringing out lovely details in Ben's voice and Mark's harmonica. The original album has been out of print for years. It was reissued in 2007 as part of the Blue Rider Trio's Early Morning Blues 2-CD collection. Free MP3s are available here: https://shop.mapleshadestore.com/product.asp?itemid=1076 Jack Walrath & Larry Wills with Steve Novosel Portraits In Ivory and Brass: The original 1994 CD release of this gorgeous, evocative collaboration between Jack and Larry was heralded as one of Pierre's best recordings for good reason. The new transfer sounds a bit warmer, the piano and trumpet overtones are more refined and spacious, and the attack and resonances of Novosel's bowed and plucked bass are more present and nuanced. You can hear free MP3s of the original CD here: https://shop.mapleshadestore.com/product.asp?itemid=1147 Norris Turney Quartet Big Sweet 'N Blue: Best known as the alto player Ellington found to replace Johnny Hodges, Norris Turney was sadly unrecognized in his lifetime. Originally released in 1995, this album was co-produced by our late Music Director, Larry Willis. He enlisted Walter Booker and Jimmy Cobb to accompany Norris for this session, some consider the resulting album a jazz and audiophile masterpiece. Here are free MP3s from the original CD: https://shop.mapleshadestore.com/product.asp?itemid=1145 We also have several new releases in production: Jack Walrath Triceratops: This is a really fun, energetic trio session recorded in 2006 that was a pending release scheduled to be mastered before the fire. Cheekily subtitled 'Three Horned Face,' the trio features Jack on trumpet, Jedd Levy on tenor sax, José Davila on tuba with Larry Willis sitting in for the last two songs. Clifford Jordan & Co. Mapleshade Mystery Session Vol.1: Pierre and Clifford were friends and the tenor sax giant recorded extensively at Mapleshade during the late '80s and early '90s. The edited master tapes for this four-song album were simply marked "CJ & Co." and the sequenced song names were written on the tape reels with no date, location, or information about the band. We haven't learned anything more about this session but the music is too good to collect dust any longer. Thus, Mapleshade's Mystery Session series was born and the "CJ & Co." album will be its inaugural release. The Elbow In Your Eye Sessions: In 1999, Pierre recorded five of my favorite local punk bands for a compilation that never came to fruition: Crispus Attucks, The Fuses, The Goons, The Knuckledrags, and The Thumbs. I was excited to discover the original session tapes survived the studio fire and am working with the bands to release these recordings for the first time. As you should expect from Mapleshade — no mixing boards, overdubs, noise reduction, compression, multitracks, EQ or reverb were used for these pending new releases and reissues. They will be available on most major digital streaming and download platforms in the coming months; we'll provide updates once firm release dates are available for each album. -- Eldon Baldwin Mapleshade Recordings

"The first Continental Op novel. The movie Yojimbo (and therefore A Fistful of Dollars also) was sort of based on this. I enjoyed this, but I like the short stories better." Agreed. Also, there was a Bruce Willis movie with Chris Walken that borrowed plot lines from Red Harvest or one of the movies you mention.

It is on YT

Just saw this on Dustygroove. Amazon has it a little cheaper: https://www.amazon.com/Better-Now-before-You-Later/dp/1953691994

Before shipping, DG is cheaper than CvD.

Carville: Yes I have read that also. Based on my understanding of who is to collect customs fees and when those fees are to be collected, I would wonder about the authenticity of both a bill for such fees and the company seeing payment.

Carville: no I did not get a bill. I find it odd that a shipper would contact the buyer after the items have cleared the customs house to attempt to collect a tariff or tax. My understanding is that an item cannot clear the customs house without payment if said payment is required. I think that CDJapan stated somewhere that it calculates and includes an amount for the tariff but I have not see any evidence of that. It does charge a flat 1300 yen fee for customs clearance or handling. One of those last two shipments I mention above was for 7 cds. My last shipment before the tariffs was for 7 cds. Notably, there was only about a 300 yen difference in the respective shipping costs.

Found one of his cds in a record store in Montevideo, Uruguay. Great stuff,

Have successfully received two shipments from CD Japan without delays since the imposition of tariffs.

Regarding Saturday, Its a toss up for me between the above concert or Burnt Sugar at The Local in Saugerties or the Daniel-Marcus concert in Poughkeepsie. BTW-I have the dates wrong in the subject line-should be 14th and 15th.
