blind-blake Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this? In any format? Much obliged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzydaddy Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 That's going to be a tough one to find. According to this CTI discography the session was not initially released back in 1977 as CTI was in the throwes of bankruptcy at the time. There apparently has been a subsequent Japanese CD release however (no surprise there). Good luck in your search.......... Don Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this? In any format?

brownie Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 the session was not initially released back in 1977 as CTI was in the throwes of bankruptcy at the time. My CTI Japan vinyl indicates it was released in 1977. This was a US CTI-like gatefold album. Manufactured by King Records! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Despite the setlist, this sounds like the perfect title for Mosaic Contemporary to reissue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Man Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Despite the setlist, this sounds like the perfect title for Mosaic Contemporary to reissue. My thoughts exactly! Drop them a line & ask whether it's on their 'we'll get around to it later' list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyJazz Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Something about this front line combination sounded familiar and sure enough, I looked at my list of private CD-Rs, and found this item of interest evidently broadcast the day before the recording above: Tokyo, 26 April 1977: Farmer, McLean, Walton, Sam Jones, Higgins; 36 minutes 1) Bags' Groove 2) In a Sentimental Mood 3) Movin' Out 4) 'Round Midnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if so, would any or all of these tracks be suitable bonus material for a CD release of the date that this thread is about?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if so, would any or all of these tracks be suitable bonus material for a CD release of the date that this thread is about?? I think the sound quality was OK. In a Sentimental Mood is incomplete, so that's out. Certainly the others would fit. Brings up another question - if something were broadcast, does the radio station retain any control of the resulting tapes? Or do the rights holders remain the artists or their estates, plus any labels that they were contractually obligated to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Totally an uninformed guess here, but my money would be on the radio station retaining some rights to the material. What specific rights, I couldn't even begin to say, but if that weren't the case -- then wouldn't there be way more (legit) releases of "airchecks" than there are?? I mean, there are MANY good-quality airchecks that we've all (collectively) heard over the years (in collectors circles) -- a number of which would make incredible releases (for instance, I've heard a couple Woody Shaw things that are just as good as (or maybe even better than!) anything legitimately released with him). So then, my theory is that it ain't just the artists and labels that have to get cleared. Otherwise, what accounts for some really outstanding recordings (performance and sound-quality both) never having been released. (All this is wild-ass speculation on my part -- there are plenty here that know how this stuff really works, I and certainly will defer to their expertise.)
