Inner City and Classic Jazz Reissues

[BeBop]

The December Jazz Improv NY Magazine (freebie version) has an ad on page 7 (page 9 in the PDF) listing a bunch of Inner City reissues (including 3 Ernie Krivdas that I don't believe have been out on CD - Alchemist, Satanic and Glory Strut). The website referenced in the ad (http://www.jazzsession.com) doesn't seem to list all of these new items, and I don't see them at the "usual suspects" (e.g., Amazon). But I guess they're coming. Jazzmusicdepot had some of the last Inner City batch, as I recall.

(I'm trying to cut and paste a copy of the reissue list, but my slow internet connection is killing me.)

I remember the Suzanne McCorkle being nice. Are these Sun Ra's really not available on any other label? I hope they rerelease the Pony Poindexter, hopefully in better sound.

Funny... was listening to Krivda's work earlier today on a date issued as LEE'S KEYS, PLEASE (and attributed to the "Cadence All-Stars"... recommended, BTW) and wondered about the status of those Inner City records. Excited to see that they might be available again.

The Krivda CD's will be available in Januari/Februari. I got this from the Jazzsessions.com owner.

slightly off topic, but I thought I should mention for Krivda fans that Cadence Jazz put out a cd entitled "Live in New York City" a year or so ago from a gig that Ernie did at Sweet Rhythm a couple of years back. I think it captured the new band and this gig pretty well - I was there and so was Bebop if I remember correctly.

[BeBop]

Indeed! This has been on my 'to buy...when I get back to civilization/civilized life" list. Soon, I hope.

The two I'd most like to see that aren't on jazzsession.com are Ted Curson - Jubilant Power and Charles Sullivan - Genesis.

[BeBop]

...and Archie Shepp "Doodlin'"

[randyhersom]

Google was my friend on the subject of Charles Sullivan - Genesis and also Piano Choir - Handscapes, both of which my old vinyl was too battered to rip.

Several of the Inner Citys (including at least two Ernie Krivdas) are now available through Cadence.

Bebop-

Yeah but the problem with Cadence is that $6.00/ order minimum shipping charge which comes to $3.00/disc.

Also for NY residents they charge tax.

Anyone see a better deal on these Krivdas? strangely Amazon is offering only "Satanic" on cd - the Alchemist is MP3 download only.

[BeBop]

Well, they're $14 a disc, plus, plus. I guess I'm accustomed to paying $17 for a hot-off-the-presses offering, even though I know the price will drop if I wait. I really don't know how widely available these will be. And, if there's one thing I've grown to appreciate, it's that, if I want something, whether for myself or as a gift, and I see it, buy it, lest it become the next Basra or (what was the Mosaic box that got discontinued after a short life?)

[BeBop]

...and it looks like Amazon wants $17 (free shipping at $25) plus tax for the one CD they have.

I did a quick, on-line price search. Best I found was Dusty Groove at $13.99. (Don't know shipping cost.)

Thanks BB

I see DUsty Groove has the ALchemist but NOT Satanic!

[BeBop]

Sorry, I know I sounded kinda preachy. I suppose that the low volume of buying a do leaves me pretty price-insensitive...though I miraculously held off buying that Live in New York disc. Regretting it now? Yeah, prob'ly.
