Pacific Jazz JWC-507 - West Coast Jazz - Vol. 3 [1956]

[Edward Lopez]

[J-C] I cannot reply to your main comments as, frankly, I'm ignorant of copyright laws and know nothing about Public Domain.

"Now be that as it may - @Jazzpizzicat: Unfortunately I don't have the equipment (yet) to burn CD-R's from vinyl (only CD to CD) so I cannot burn you a CD-R of my copy of JWC-507 (the one with the famous cover of the frogman stepping out of the water) for the time being but I'll go on record right here saying that otherwise I'd be happy to oblige! (But note: My copy is about VG+ so there might be some pops and crackles here and there )

Yet I hope for you somebody else will oblige too (without speaking out publicly here )."

[J-C]Thanks for the kind words but I've already arraigned to acquire a copy. Once I found out from another poster that the series had been released on CD in Japan, that became my desired source for a clean copy. I grew up with vinyl and owned many fine audio components playing vinyl from the '60s, to the '80s. But once compact discs made the scene, I was sold and stopped buying LPs except for an occassional one that I couldn't find on CD.

"P.S. A final note re- that Rule #6 invoked above:

At least as far as European parties in such transactions are involved, that material on the record Jazzpizzicat asked about no longer falls under copyright rules as the 50-year limit has been passed. And as long as any more stringent European rules have not yet come into force that's the applicable law at least in Europe and Rule#6 does NOT apply and that's that."
