jeffcrom Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Jazz of the Connecticut Traditional Jazz Club #11 (CTJC). The CTJC used to record their concerts and issue highlights on LPs - there are at least 18 of them. Some of the recordings have shown up on Jazz Crusade, but as far as I know, the tracks on this album aren't available anywhere else. Side one has five 1974 tracks by the Onward Brass Band, with Louis Cottrell, Frog Joseph, Teddy Riley, Danny Barker, etc. Side two is split between Clyde Bernhardt's Harlem Blues & Jazz Band and Gene Mayl's Dixieland Rhythm Kings. I once passed on the volume that had outtakes of the sessions for Capt. John Handy's second RCA album, because of some slight concern over condition. I was an idiot.

colinmce Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) John Tchicai - Solo (FMP) This is probably the most I've ever spent on one record, though to seasoned collectors the figure is a pittance ($30). I saw this at the Destination:Out FMP download store and was enticed. When I caught one on EBay I couldn't resist, and I'm sure glad I didn't! Love Tchcai, and he's in stunning form here. I may never get a chance to own more FMP vinyl; the CDs are hard enough to come by, so I'll cherish this one.

I've definitely still pulled FMPs for $10 or so, but a lot more have been significantly more expensive than that. The entire catalog is great.

I once passed on the volume that had outtakes of the sessions for Capt. John Handy's second RCA album, because of some slight concern over condition. I was an idiot. Certainly agree with your last paragraph. When it comes to old vinyl, although it's wonderful if they are in mint, or near-mint condition, that's not always possible, especially if the former collector actually played them. People didn't buy records to necessarily value them as collector's items. They bought them to be used and used the good ones were. If they were throwing a "get together," unless they were as fanatical about looking after their records as most of us now are, records were sometimes treated rather casually, not put back in their covers immediately, stacked without their covers until sometimes days later, etc. etc. etc. So, consequently, some records' covers especially, are, to put it nicely, battered and battle-scarred. But now, many of them are almost impossible to find and when I do find a rare album, unless the record has a bite out of it, or is unplayable, I still snap it up. If it does turn out to be really ratched, I may not play it, but I still keep it. Eg. I have a Clifford Brown 10" album [Clifford Brown Ensemble featuring Zoot Sims Pacific Jazz Records, Vogue Production LDE 158 recorded in 1954], that the last cut, "Blueberry Hill" doesn't play at all. The cover seems to have been attacked by wild dogs and is in elegant tatters. I had to piece together the outside of the cover and tape almost the whole thing, or it would have fallen apart. It's still on my shelf and I still play it, with the exception of "Blueberry Hill". Edited August 8, 2012 by patricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 You're right, Patricia, but what's going to stick with me from your post is the juxtaposition of my last sentence and your first sentence: I was an idiot. Certainly agree with your last paragraph. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Living Legends (Verve Folkways). Son House, Skip James, Bukka White and Big Joe Williams, recorded at a New York club gig in 1966. It's very good, and the Skip James tracks are probably my favorite James recordings from his "rediscovery" years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
