jeffsjazz Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Anyone hear this new reissue from Gambit Records (the beloved Andorrans)? I know how many of you feel,but I have been wanting to hear this for some time on cd. IT'S FANTASTIC !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I see on the Fresh Sound site that the edited tracks have been restored, but since the master tape is destroyed some of the tracks must be LP dubs. How's the sound quality on those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Man Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I bought a Japanese re-issue of 'Jazz Guitar' from Hiroshi Tanno at earlyrecords.com a few months ago which has complete versions of the ten original tracks. I presume that some of the tracks are LP dubs but the sound overall is excellent. It doesn't contain the track 'Too close for comfort' which was issued on a Pacific Jazz anthology and was never on the original LP. For anyone that's interested the catalogue number is TOCJ-6819 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin V Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 I recently picked up the original CD reissue. Although I knew that I wanted to pick up the reissue with the complete sessions, I also wanted to own the legitimate release. After hearing the edited version, I can't fathom why Richard Bock felt the need to edit Carl Perkins' solos or add drums. I'm also confused why the legit reissue didn't simply dub the complete versions from a surviving LP. Blue Note has dubbed from LP before, i.e., on Lou Donaldson's Lush Life. Considering the historical importance of it being Hall's first leader date and the presence of Carl Perkins, as well as its artistic importance, it's a shame that they didn't see fit to reissue the complete, unedited session.

danasgoodstuff Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 My domestic CD version has both shortened and full length versions and outtake(s) IIRC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
