dougcrates Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Earlier this year I got TOCJ-66013 Art Hodes' Hot Five & Seven off Dusty Groove for $35. I didn't know anything about this series or era of jazz but for som reason I took a chance. Fantastic stuff. Need to track down the rest.

This series is super-rare these days, but look for Jamming In Jazz. It's perhaps the best-sounding of the series, and the music is superb.

I have a US compilation with many of the tracks, or all, of Profoundly Blue. With Charlie Christian. I'll have to see the difference of tracks in the reissue. Maybe I'll try to get it. Just for the cover, which is great and wasn't, of course, on the comp. I just checked and it's the full content. Only that some tracks have differing lengths and the last one from the Edmond Hall Swingtet, Steamin and beamin, is called Beamin and steamin on the US domestic release. So I'll stay with mine.

Late Posted March 4, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2023 I wish this would get reissued. Probably won't happen, but maybe in 2039? Alamo "Pigmeat" Markham was a Blue Note recording artist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I doubt it will be reissued. There's material on this set that have not been on cd in the US. Not a ton but maybe a half a cd's worth or more. It's very good sounding material. If you keep an eye out it does show up occasionally and sometimes reasonably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept checking it out on discogs and one time a seller in Japan had it for about 100 including shipping (just before COVID made deliveries and rates so high). I was surprised to get it and to have it be pristine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a little over. The music on that 1990 Japanese box set (linked above) that was never on a Mosaic set is quite good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alamo "Pigmeat" Markham was a Blue Note recording artist! truly amazing set - 32 years old now AFAIK it's the only way you can source official CD versions of the Clyde Bernhardt/Kansas City Buddies & Pigmeat Markham/Jimmy Shirley sessions (both only ever previously released as 78s) or have they been released on some individual TOCJ CDs?

The Shirley tracks have appeared on some UK comps. The Bernhardt tracks have appeared on a Fresh Sounds CD, and the Markham...I'm not sure. The Vic Dickenson tracks...have they appeared anywhere else? Perhaps the Japanese market will reconsider these "lost" tracks for reissue upon Blue Note's centennial. We'll just have to stick around for 16 more years. 😛🤔 That box set is probably the best way to comprehensively hear the early years of Blue Note.

Chuck Nessa Posted March 15, 2023 Report Share Posted March 15, 2023 In the early '80s I was on a mission to collect BN 78s, concentrating on the 12" discs. I loaned some to Cuscuna for later reissues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
