I dig Jackie & Rene's playing together.

I'm actually seeing 3 albums: On the Other Side of Town, The Colour of Time & Northwest of Chicago. Can't listen to them or preview them other than Northwest as I don't subscribe.

Donald. Then Donald Ray. I’ll try with Don instead

Yeah, simple google search found it. Can't find him on Amazon though. Getting a bunch of Donald Vega/Lewis Nash stuff from Resonance. My amazon search skills need some polish I guess.

Unless I'm mistaken, he ain't on Discogs at all.

Well, found this. Donald Lewis - what a tragedy. https://www.thecinemaholic.com/donald-lewis-murder/

Listening again. Really liking these tunes on the second go-round, especially 2 & 3, 7-13... Is that Phil Woods on 5? Is #7 Illinois Jacquet with Wild Bill or Milt Buckner? Tyrone Hill on #9? I'm thinking Fathead is somewhere in here too...not #10 since that was already guessed...the second one #12 then? Steve Grossman on #13? Or is it Liebman & Brecker? Some wild guesses here but figured I'd give it another go.

Via the '97 Legacy CD which has the Wilder remastering.

Well, new release announced: https://www.facebook.com/20544755421/posts/10165155229335422/ 4 x 45rpm LP set of Lanquidity, to include the rare "stripped down" Twin Stars of Thence and alternate versions of other tunes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKgroQIAq2O/?igshid=1e43p30po9eua

Strange Blues and then: So Much Guitar...but before both of these it was:

Hmmm...probably wont include those Morgan albums he worked on as sideman or will it? If so, then that cramps the idea of an eventual Morgan box right?

Don't know but great sets. There were some on eBay last year that sold for bargains as well. Bottom has fallen out of the traditional jazz market I think. Domestically in the US at least.

First, thanks for spreading the word. Only advice regarding editing the post is to try (if you haven't already) just deleting all the spaces - or - copy and paste in Notepad, remove the spaces and then c/p back here.

Interesting - yeah, my Snow Dog edition of Spring Rain is LOUD. Will be interesting if this new remastering services the music a bit better.

First: Then:

Got the email today that this set is now for sale in both CD box set and download options.

Very sorry to hear that. I do hope he is able to recover.

I'd buy that for a dollar!

I thought that when he was on a recent BFT, but his playing keeps it firmly out of any smooth jazz cheese. Some of the production elements flirt with smooth jazz but he and his bandmates keep it interesting. I'm not a smooth jazz hater either, FTR.

Wait, is Herbie's name misspelled on the TP cover?

Very cool to hear this. I'm currently in grad school, but am about 20 years or so most of my classmates' ages. None of them have any CDs. There may be a small number of them with records but music is almost exclusively accessed via streaming. Albums have a kitsch factor that CDs do not, and I don't ever see these kids adopting a preference for CDs. As stated above, if Mosaic's CD sets are probably aimed at Gen X or older domestically, and the international segment abroad that still buys them. Ah, my apologies @David Ayers I mistakenly missed your wording regarding transfers.

Tommy Flanagan's Something Borrowed, Something Blue

I think all the vinyl they're producing is AAA with Kevin Gray mastering. The Mobley CDs were done by Malcom Addey, so I don't think they're the same.

Well, the Mobley set got them some cash flow and maybe they think the JH set will do the same. I'm thinking a Lee Morgan set would do better in that regard - more like Mobley in that some of those albums aren't easy to find on CD and SQ improvements (more than marginal IMO) would help move product. Then use that cash flow for other connoisseur sets.

I have to assume they've got everything relevant listed at this link: https://archive.org/details/audio?sin=&and%5B%5D=black+and+white&and%5B%5D=subject%3A%22music%22&sort=&page=2 If you scroll down there's a good amount of B&W 78s, etc. listed and downloadable in several different file types.
