wulfman Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Is that correct that Fuschia Swing Song is coming out as an RVG as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ayers Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 I wonder what happened to Black Fire and Tender Moments? Scheduled for Summer 2004. No need to panic... yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Is that correct that Fuschia Swing Song is coming out as an RVG as well? I always said it should have been an RVG, instead of a Conn. Maybe they're finally listening to me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ayers Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 FSS is/was available as a JRVG, but is not known to be scheduled as an RVG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philly Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 FSS (TOCJ 4184) was released in 95' in JP and is still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always said it should have been an RVG, instead of a Conn. Maybe they're finally listening to me!! I couldn't get your point. What's the difference for "Fuschia Swing Song" to be released as RVG or Conn.? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverrat Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 I think the point is that it has just been released as a Connoisseur, so it seems odd to release it again a few months later as an RVG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmorin Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 What's the difference for "Fuschia Swing Song" to be released as RVG or Conn.? About $4. And the number of CDs made -- I suspect RVGs have a substantially larger print run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morganized Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Is that correct that Fuschia Swing Song is coming out as an RVG as well? If Blue Note does this it will be the most conspicous example of price point marketing that I have ever seen. You really do have to give it to them, they do a great job of sellling the same stuff over and over again!!!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 It's nice that Stanley's record will be in print again. I constantly recommend that record to people but it's been long out of print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I constantly recommend that record to people but it's been long out of print. Yes, that's a good one. I was spinning it the other day and was reminded that I need more Shirley Scott in my collection.

montg Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 (edited) That new release line up looks pretty sad, if you ask me. Even compared to just a few years ago. Wynton with guest star Bobby Mcferrin thumping on his chest and yodeling, plus another 'young lion' going electric (whew, that's new!)... doesn't really get the old ticker palpitating. Could anyone tell me who's on the Benny Carter release? The only info I could glean from allmusic is that it's a 1960 UA recording.

JSngry Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 (edited) Google turns up nothing other than that it's actually "Sax", not "Six"; it's 1959, not 1960; and that somebody's got a still-sealed LP for sale @ $50.00. And that the usually encyclopedic bsn site has no page for UA! Edited January 23, 2004 by JSngry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 (edited) Back to Benny Carter : Bruyninckx lists three LPs for UA: - Aspects, a big band LP which was on a Capitol CD a few years ago (1958) - Can-Can and Anything Goes, a quartet LP with Hal Schaefer (?) on piano, Joe Benjamin, Gus Johnson and Ted Somer (1958/1959) - Quartet, with Jimmy Rowles (!!!), Leroy Vinegar and Mel Lewis (1958/59 or 1962), there was a French Blue Note LP reissue of this. I hope the CD reissues the latter! Edited January 23, 2004 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really do have to give it to them, they do a great job of sellling the same stuff over and over again!!!. Not to me, they won't. What an absurd move... Moose, I think you missed my tongue firmly in cheek with respect to Blue Note's move. It would be the most brazen of marketing moves and would, I think, really confuse their customers. I mean, form Blue Note's perspective they role out the $19.00 model and when they have sold that to all the die hards (like some of us) they bring out the same thing,call it a different model with more main stream appeal, so to speak, and a new price.$13.00 Sounds like the marketing director of GM back in the 80's just moved over to Blue Note! The problem with that strategy is of course, that the die hards catch on pretty quick and next time they bring out the expensive model, folks are much more hesitant to buy. You do have to admire the success of the RVG marketing. I know there is significant audible differences on some of the discs, but many times they are selling the disc to people who already own a copy of the session. Hey, if they bought it once....... I think this may be the reason Blue Note decided to halt the SACD production. Once everyone has converted to RVG's they can start all over again with SACD's. What a country!!!
