riverrat Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Red Trumpet has this title for $36.99, with free shipping: Sonny Clark Trios 2 CD TOCJ 66125/6 is part of Toshiba's "Complete Series". This seems like a good deal, a lot less than I paid last year at CDJapan anyway. A great sounding 24-bit remaster. The first disc has the same music as the domestic RVG, but in a different order- the alternate takes are grouped with the master takes. The second disc has another session that I actually like a bit more. Here is the track listing: (DISC 1) 1. I Didn't Know What Time It Was (Alternate Take) 2. I Didn't Know What Time It Was 3. Two Bass Hit 4. Two Bass Hit (Alternate Take) 5. Be-Bop 6. Todd's Delight (Alternate Take) 7. Todd's Delight 8. Softly As In A Morning Sunrise 9. I'll Remember April (DISC 2) 1. Black Velvet 2. I'm Just A Lucky So And So 3. Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You 4. Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You (Alternate Take) 5. Ain't No Use 6. The Breeze And I 7. I Can't Give You Anything But Love 8. Can't We Be Friends? 9. I Cover The Waterfront 10. Somebody Love Me 11. Blues In The Night (Short Version) 12. Blues In The Night (Long Version ) (Alternate Take) 13. All Of You 14.

jazzbo Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Fantastic two cd set. Great price too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robviti Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 (edited) FYI, the second session was released in 1998 as Standards. I think the remastering job Rudy did for this Japanese reissue is an improvement over the 2002 domestic RVG reissue of Sonny Clark Trio.

grey Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 The JRVG Disc 2 is a big improvement over the domestic 'Standards'. Jazzshrink, I have not done an A/B of JRVG Disc 1 Vs. the Domestic RVG but your observation does not surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Man Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 $37 is a great price for this set (about the same price I paid for mine), and anyone without it should pick it up without delay. The TOCJ sounds great, and the music is essential. That version of "I Didn't Know What Time It Was" never fails to put a smile on my face.

DrJ Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 I paid a lot more, and it was worth every penny. Don't hesitate! PS - I have A/B'd the old US STANDARDS set with Disc 2 of the JRVG and there's no comparison - Rudy done himself very proud on the Japanese edition.
