  1. My guess is that these are the releases that are being reissued in Europe as the "Collectors Choice 50" series.

    This series consists of 50 semi-obscure titles, repackaged in super jewel cases, with brief liner notes by Richard Cook (taken from the Penguin Guide). They are not newly remastered, nor did they get new EAN/UPC barcodes, so except for the new packaging they are exact copies of the previously available OJC titles.

    Interestingly enough, even though I've held several of these in my hands, I haven't found any reference to the series anywhere on the Internet yet.

    Most, if not all, have been listed at CDU as "no longer available."

  2. Lawrance Marable's Tenorman I only ever saw once - when I picked it up in Dan's sale. I then promptly lost/misplaced it. :rolleyes:

    I just happened to order this used off Amazon. Looks like the 1989 CD, which is by far and away the most affordable option.

  3. Still next time I will order through CD universe or Amazon. The effort wasn't worth having it 24 hours before the rest of my boys have their copies from online orders.

    Arrived from CDU this morning and all is well in the jazz world. I should think about scoring Takin' Off, but it'll be a long while before I take Magnificent Thad out of the CD player!

    JRM has been more miss than hit over the last year. They're pretty bad about keeping new releases in stock... but they have a ton of $30+ imports that no one will buy.

  4. Just received 11 OJCs from Newberry - 9 of them "limited editions" - for $51 shipped. Check out their free shipping special in their Ebay store.

    What did you get? I just received/ordered ten of them from there.

    Jerome Richardson Sextet - Midnight Oil

    Jimmy Raney - A

    Randy Weston Trio/Cecil Payne - Jazz A La Bohemia

    Jimmy Forrest - Out Of The Forrest

    Leroy Vinnegar Sextet - Leroy Walks!

    Rene Thomas - Guitar Groove

    Junior Cook - Junior's Cookin'

    Curtis Counce - Landslide

    Gigi Gryce - Rat Race Blues

    Jimmy Woods - Conflict

  5. Flight to Jordan is one my favorite Blue Notes.

    Same here.

    I feel the same way about Davis Cup.

    I'm with you here. I've always found Davis Cup to be an amazing listen. I'm very much looking forward to the Baby Face and Thad Jones. On another note, I just stumbled across this site and I look forward to talking jazz with all of you :)

    Glad to have you on board, Mo!

    Glad to be here! I didn't see an introduction thread anywhere so I figured I'd post it here. Since I'm mainly a re-issue kind of guy, I think I'll be in here often!

    I also say Diz's At Newport is slated for an 8/7/07 release according to CDUniverse. I'll be able to finally ditch that CD-R!
