Late Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Up for Christmas. Joe? Or the holiday. We're only ten months away you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 my latest acquisitions, all as of yet unplayed: Jimmy Heath - The Thumper Jimmy Heath - On the Trail Jimmy Heath - Triple Threat JATP All Stars - Carnegie Hall 1949 (the set with Fats Navarro, Hawkins and Sonny Criss) Tiny Grimes - Blue Goove (w/Hawkins) Gigi Gryce - The Rat Race Blues and yesterday on sale - both Universal Yurp new pressings: Stan Getz - Quartets Stan Getz/Al Haig - Prezervation (I've had the Roost box for years and bought "Early Stan" when zweitausendeins had their ZYX/OJC sale... also have the Verve "Plays", so these two should come in handily to complete the picture of early Stan!)

Kyo Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Those early Getz sides for Prestige are great! Early Stan is the only one still missing from my collection. Make sure you get the Al Haig Trio / Sextets disc (now out of print) and the "Brothers" Getz/Sims disc, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swinging Swede Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Long Island Sound! Actually, ubu, you might also want to get Getz's Savoy and Sittin' In With sessions, to complete the picture of early Stan. One way of doing that is to get the first Classics volume, 1946-1949.

Hm, those I definitely don't have yet... was there a Savoy CD (in those Denon violet tray series, or even a later digipack one)? And what is "Sittin' In With"? I assume not the album that came out as digipack in the Universal LPR series (with Gonsalves etc)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Ah, ok, never saw that one! I assume sound is similar as on the other of these black reissues? Some think it sucks... it never bothered me that much (I have the Dizzy, Norvo and Prez sets). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah Chuck, that's the stuff~! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyo Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah Chuck, that's the stuff~! The Savoy compilation is great (and complete). I got the "Sittin' In With" material on a CD called "A Look at Yesterday" from Mainstream Records, but that one's hard to find. I think it's the only legitimate CD release of those tracks though. The disc also includes some tunes featuring Wardell Gray, John Hardee (both backed by Al Haig like Getz) and a Paul Quinichette session. I think Definitive Records compiled the Getz and Gray stuff together with some of the Prestige sides on a CD called "Al Haig Meets the Master Bop Saxes" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late Posted January 21, 2023 Report Share Posted January 21, 2023 Almost 15 years after the last post in this thread...and OJCs these days are relatively scarce. As an example of used market price change over the years, Dusty Groove is currently offering Sam Jones' Soul Society for $33. 🧐 eBay, of course, always has a number of absurd prices. For music, I shop Amazon less and less. I was looking over my OJC collection this week, and realized some titles that I thought I had physical copies of...I actually don't. 😑 Anyone still quietly filling holes in their OJC holdings?

TheMusicalMarine Posted January 21, 2023 Report Share Posted January 21, 2023 I am. I got a lot (a lot!) of titles over the years, but still more OJCs (or Prestige/Milestone/Good Time Jazz/etc.) to get. $33 titles notwithstanding, Dusty's still been the best source for used titles. Be wary of their titles advertised as new - they're probably CDR pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted January 21, 2023 Report Share Posted January 21, 2023 I have a ton of them to sell off, just getting time to list them is hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub Modal Posted January 21, 2023 Report Share Posted January 21, 2023 I don't think that Sam Jones title legally streams and that's probably the reason for the price (probably a rarer OJC as well). Jones' discography on streaming platforms seems pretty small as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. Fantasy was starting to do some beautiful sets right before they sold out to Concord, such as the three Trane boxes, the Bill Evans Vanguard box, the Miles 1st Classic Quintet box, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFrank Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 A friend of mine is helping someone sell off a large collection. He's starting with about 300 OJCs, many are in mint/near-mint condition, and quite a few are still sealed. The sale will be live on YouTube next Saturday. I can post more info this week, if anyone's interested. There are no conditions for joining the feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
