Fer Urbina Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hello Could anybody confirm whether the LP Oscar Pettiford - Discoveries (SJL 1172) has ever been reissued on CD? I read a review in the Penguin Guide To Jazz (4th ed., I think, the one with Getz and Ray Brown on the cover), but as far as I can remember the CD catalogue number was wrong. I have also seen an overpriced copy listed for sale in gemm.com, but the seller (Argentinian) didn't have in stock anyway. The Allmusic reviewer says he wishes it will be reissued on CD someday. Thanks in advance. F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I've been collection Pettiford for years and I've never seen a copy of this title offered on cd. To my knowledge it was only issued on vinyl. There is no listing for a cd version in this excellent online Oscar Pettiford Discography Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that my two sightings are just mistakes. F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually tried (like a couple of years ago) to get it from soundcity2000 and there was no response at all. F PS The October 1957 track mentioned by Lords is "Taking A Chance On Love", by Pettiford, Eddie Costa and Ed Thigpen, very possibly a left-over from the Bethlehem Winner's Circle session, subsequently included in the Discoveries LP.

Jaffa Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 I don't know whether the LP was issued on American Savoy-CD but I have a copy of the French Vogue-Savoy Jazz VG 655 650142; issued in 1986. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
