chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 so its the "traditional" blue note labels- both say liberty records of course.... i know this lp was liberty from the get-go... but mine is mastered by "BB" and not RVG.... the jacket with it looks like a 70s bn jacket, however the labels are your trad. bn labels that say a prod of lib records....i was wondering if the orig was mastered by RVG or not in the beggining, or do i have a first stereo issue? ps- also got a white label mono "heart and soul"- teddy edwards----finally get to hear this one!

My original copy of Cornbread was a heavy RVG mastered lp. This is one of the records issued during the transition. Not a "Liberty from the get-go".

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 interesting mr nessa thanks- i thought it was from the get go cause i see cornbread promoted like crazy on liberty jackets, smak dab between a julie london liberty and a bud shank world pacific- you feel me? the sleeve is one of those: blue note: the definitive catelogue sleeves. i hope its at least a 2nd issue- i bought it on ebay to get that original analog cornbread sound......

Chuck Nessa Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 The original jacket was liberty, but the pressing wasn't. I still have a couple of records like this. My copy of Patton's Let 'em Roll is like this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 do u think the sale to liberty was one of the worst decisions in jazz? or did it suit Al lion properlly at the time to get out of the biz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion had a bad heart attack and needed to stop. He did what seemed best at the time, largely because Liberty was willing to keep Frank.

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 i did not know that. did frank do the best he could, or was he not able to deal with record company big-wigs at a company such as liberty/trans-america, etc the way you had to back then?

My copy of Patton's Let 'em Roll is like this too. Yes, it's the heavier vinyl on 'Cornbread'. All of the copies I've seen (including mine) also seem to have a slanted RHS sleeve opening - as if they mis-aligned the guillotine !

blajay Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 When I first read this topic I thought it was a technique to use cornbread to clean vinyl and got really excited, like the recent wood glue use thread that blew my mind.
