Teasing the Korean Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 What is the status of their catalog in the digital era? I assume that most of the stuff they licensed was reissued on CD at one point or other by the rights holders. What about Jazztone's original albums?

Wikipedia) but also encroached in the Jazztone field of operations. Sometimes you get both Jazztone and CHS pressings with the same release number but different letter prefixes, and sometimes you see Jazztone vinyl inside a CHS sleeve.

The Fletcher Henderson alumini LP and the Cootie & Rex LP that were mentioned in post-war swing-style big bands thread started by Rabshakeh, for example, have been reissued by Fresh Sound on vinyl in the 80s. And AFAIK the rights to Dial (that according to various sources Jazztone acquired in the 50s) apparently have long since passed on elsewhere. Which is why Spotlite reissued so much in the 70s and 80s. Edited September 5, 2023 by Big Beat Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Beat Steve Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 No, never - but the cover seems to be a "Concert Hall" product. So another Jazztone/Concert Hall Society combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Fresh Sound probably did not license that material. Maybe, but probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
