Philip Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Buy the Tom Lord Jazz Discography edition 4.4CD-Rom for $279 (online) when it comes out in the summer, containing information on all Jazz recordings, then decide if you want the addition minutiae in the BN discography.

Peter A Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 It depends what you are looking for. I think the discography you are referring to (by Cuscuna/Ruppli) lists ALL recordings - in chronological order ? - ever made by Blue Note. You might want to buy the (Japanese) Blue Note Book - Jazz Critique Edition. I have it myself. This book lists all issued recordings in numerical order (complete with line ups), starting with 10" records. It also lists the Japanese LP's issued in the (late) seventies. Very nice pictures too, alot of them in color. A lot of the text is in Japanese, but fortunately crucial info (song titles, line ups) is in English. You can find it for only $ 24.99 at Dusty Groove, here's a link: Dusty Groove Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
