Evonce Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 This problem was mentioned in the RVG thread, but I'd like to place a separate query: does anyone know how to get these misprinted booklets replaced? Seems some unrelated pages (for a different album) snuck into this RVG's booklet. Blue Note's site is of no help yet, unlesss they've got the answer in the basement behind the door labeled Beware Of Leopard. Meanwhile, the music is good...

Rooster_Ties Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 (edited) Would e-mailing the Mosaic general info e-mail address be of any help?? If one specifically addresses MC by name (in the body of the e-mail), doesn't he typically get the message? (He has in every case I can think of personally -- I usually have one or two inquiries of him per year.) That'd be my suggestion. Edit: Only one or two people need to e-mail him - and report back what the procedure for replacement books might be. (I don't have a crapped up copy (at least not yet), so I suggest somebody who actually has one should be the one to e-mail MC about it.)

mgraham333 Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 My Trompeta Toccata is fine, but I would like to replace my Workout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluerein Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Why bother MC with this? It's a Blue Note cd reissue which he just produced. Nothing to do with Mosaic so please email BN in the US to fix this and NOT MC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Didn't he provide the replacement info for the bungled mastering of the RVG of "Dialogue" a few years ago??) Unless I've got my wires crossed, I think MC has been helpful in some situations like this in the past.

sal Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 My booklet doesn't have this error, but it does credit Donald Byrd with writing "Mamacita".... Meanwhile, this might be my favorite Kenny Dorham session. Tommy Flanagan sounds great, and Joe Henderson plays his ass off as usual. The proceedings seem to inspire Kenny's playing quite a bit.

Nothing to do with Mosaic so please email BN in the US to fix this and NOT MC. That's not so easy as Blue Note decided to take down all contact data and the old "product suggestions/feedback" form from their website at some point. My booklet doesn't have this error, but it does credit Donald Byrd with writing "Mamacita".... Same here. I got the European version and except for the Donald Byrd mistake mentioned the booklet is fine. Which reminds me that I should try to get a replacement for my misprinted Out To Lunch booklet at some point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 I have the 1988 CD reissue which still have the liner notes that Nat Hentoff wrote for the original release. Notes do not contain any of the errorsmentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original notes are included in the new RVG booklet before the usual Bob Blumenthal essay that puts the album into a historical perspective.

bertrand Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 (edited) This composer credit stuff drived me up the wall. I've been busting my butt all these years (less so since my son was born), scouring the card catalog and the copyright deposits at the Library of Congress trying to straighten these things out, ESPECIALLY the Blue Note copyrights. When I find something out of direct importance to BN (e.g. that 'Trapped' is really by Wayne Shorter, or that 'Riggar Mortes' is really by Lee Morgan, or that 'The Way I Feel' is really by Butch Warren), I send it on to MC. It then gets fixed on the next reissue, but other more obvious mistakes then creep in, like attributing 'The Gigolo' to Cahn/Styne or now "Mamacita' to Donald Byrd. How the hell do these things happen? How do they straighten it out in terms of dispensing the royalties? I have a nagging feeling that all royalties related to the title track of The Gigolo on the new RVG will go to Cahn/Styne, and not the Lee Morgan estate. This is not just a matter of typos - there's money involved. Bertrand. Edited August 23, 2006 by bertrand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1988 CD reissue had the Nat Hentoff liner notes that were on the back cover of the original vinyl issue. My vinyl copy of 'Toccata' is the mono original. Bought the CD reissue when it came out to listen to the stereo version. When I want to listen to the session, I stick to the mono vinyl! I'm staying away from any other reissue!

Who knows what they'll use to determine where to send royalties. But seriously, how can stuff like this happen at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 You're not just dealing with BN, you're dealing with EMI/Capitol. I stick with my Toshiba Japanese pressing of this excellent session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swinging Swede Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 The 1988 CD also had a famous error - the spine had the album title spelt as Trumpeta Toccata. I guess the one constant in the various reissue series over the last 20 years is the Blue Note quality control! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertrand Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) At least no one is collecting royalties who shouldn't be due to this typo. The guy who called him 'Herbie Handcock' is a real jack-off. Probably the same guy who did Finger Popin'. Bertrand.

Maybe this was credited in later editions. Edited August 31, 2006 by Michael Weiss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
