jeffcrom Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Folk Dances of Greece (Colonial mono). This 1959 album has some amazing clarinet playing on it - by Gus Gadinis and Dave Tarras, among others.

jeffcrom Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Wardell Gray - Way Out Wardell (Crown). Seemingly a very early pressing - the bsnpubs.com website describes Crown 5004 as a Reissue of Modern 1204 with "Sweet Georgia Brown" deleted, leaving only four songs. Some of the Crown LPs list "Sweet Georgia Brown" on the back of the jacket, however. Modern 1204 had a blue cover with a photo of Wardell, while the Crown reissue has a red cover with a different pose from the same photo shoot. Here's the cover they're talking about: My cover is blue like the Modern issue, with the same picture, but it says "Crown" rather than "Modern." And my copy has "Sweet Georgia Brown." It also has a price tag from an unidentified store, revealing that this record was a $3.98 value sold for only $1.49. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Elvin Jones - The Ultimate. Dark blue label Van Gelder pressing. I do like this trio. I think "Putting It Together" is a bit better but this is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) Pat Metheny - The Pat Metheny Group (ECM) 1978. Sounds like early smooth Jazz. What do you want for a dollar?

Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Jed Levy - Good People (Reservoir). Van Gelder in the deadwax. I didn't even know that Rudy was cutting masters in 1988 after he'd gone over to digital recording. Even the Muse stuff he recorded at that time came with "Mastered by RVG" in the deadwax, not his eponymous "VAN GELDER" stamp, which I always assumed meant that someone else did the actual cutting.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) Turk Mauro - Heavyweight! (Phoenix Jazz). I bought this mainly because it had Van Gelder in the deadwax but it doesn't matter the "why", I'm glad I picked it up. Good stuff. What a fucking bizarre All Music entry!! http://www.allmusic.com/artist/turk-mauro-mn0000169721 Edited February 2, 2013 by Kevin Bresnahan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just meant he used a different tool to mark the lacquer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) ive never seen a vangelder cut as late as '88. so is the studio not being used much these last few decades? do you think after rudy passes it will become like a major studio again.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Bill Hardman - Home (Muse). Another bargain bin Van Gelder pressing. These are turning out to be pretty fun - buy it for "Van Gelder" in the deadwax for a few dollars and take your chances. This one is one of the best ones yet. Never on CD either. Well worth picking up if you trip over it in some store. ive never seen a vangelder cut as late as '88. so is the studio not being used much these last few decades? do you think after rudy passes it will become like a major studio again. It's still being used but Rudy pretty much stopped cutting vinyl in the late 80's when most record labels dropped vinyl. I have plenty of CDs that were recorded at Rudy's place in the 90s and 00s.

Fine recording but I bought it because of Hardman, Cook, etc back when it was released. The RVG connection was at least secondary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I may have bought it on a whim for "Van Gelder" in the deadwax, the names certainly helped in this case. Turk Mauro & Jed Levy on the other hand...
