Eric Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) It's some of those tracks, but not all of them. Jean de Fleur will be there. Bertrand. Bertrand, as you seem to have an insight - any update on the "Back to the Tracks" Bonus titles ? From the Universal site in Japan: 06. Meronezu Dance (seems to be a bad translation, not sure what the title is)07. Medina http://www.universal-music.co.jp/p/UCCQ-5002?s=119022 Heads up - Blue John will have several extra tracks.

Eric Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) BTW, this may be posted above, but the basis for the series, per the Universal site. Thirty titles in total, all released 6/25/14. I did not attempt to improve upon the Google translation, dorks like us know exactly what they are talking about Part1 The Original Unreleased from 1500 & 4000 Series at the time of release No. 1500, series of 4000, while numbers are determined, work that has not been released. Part2 GXF Series by KING Records the world's first appearance as a series (aka GXF series), King records 1979-80 year had the right to release Blue Note in Japan, released the unreleased album series. Original of these has become a collector's item of the coveted current. I reproduce the original jacket popular board of the series this time. Part3 EMI-Blue Note Discoveries 1984年, EMI to determine the revival of the Blue Note in earnest. Even after becoming the CD era, precious unreleased take some have seen the light of day.

monkboughtlunch Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Was Kenny Burrell's "Freedom" (circa 1963 Blue Note recordings) a late 70s King release in Japan? If so, will "Freedom" finally make its long overdue worldwide debut on CD in this new Japanese reissue series?

CJ Shearn Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) Using my limited knowledge of Japanese (I know a bit, but it's terrible, took a semester and a half of Japanese. I have many friends there though) Meronezu (メロネズ） phonetically Merone is how Melonae sounds in Japanese though, so it's not a bad translation in that sense. People with better knowledge may correct me Edited June 1, 2014 by CJ Shearn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtSalt Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I noticed the reissues on both SHM-CD and Blu-Spec 2 seemed to have run out of steam the last couple of months, I hope they rev up again with the releases on the 25th June.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/the-2000-cd-made-from-glass-1/ You would think that someone who "designed and built CD (and Laserdisc) mastering machines" would not blame a digital readback fault (which did not change the digital bitstream at all) into a change in frequency and amplitude of the analog output. If these two digitally-identical discs sounded different, then it was something in the player's D-A converter. That's the only place where analog changes can come from. You'd have to have a very, very special and unique set of digital shifts to make the resulting analog output that different... and he should know this.

TedR Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 A $2000 CD? I don't even......... I consider myself a pretty smart consumer and will only buy when things are 75% off. So I'm going to wait until they are only $500 a cd. :-)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 In the Decware community Steve Deckert has discovered analog tape as the "ultimate sound" and some of these guys are buying 500 dollar "master tapes" of marginal music to be astounded by on their 200 dolllar used reel to reels. People spend their money as they will. I know a guy who spends more than that a month on booze. I can't conceive of either expenditure. Personally I think there's more going on in the digital world than electrical engineers quite have a handle on and I could believe these discs sound a bit better. But so what? My digital sound amazes me now, and I have a DAC improvement on the horizon that promises to bring even more amazement. Life is good, and in my case doesn't need to get better.

David Ayers Posted June 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 And how about the new covers for Tippin The Scales, My Conception and K. B. Blues? And yes, analog tape kills everything, nothing new about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiRiIII Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 I do not like at all the RVG mastered "You Gotta Take a Little Love" CD by the late Horace Silver - one my favorited by him. I jJust noticed that it is part of the recent SHM series, as is "Cape Verdean Blues". Since both of them never appeared in an 'audiophile" label on CD or SACD, I ll appreciate your eventual input on the audio quality of these titles in their SHM incarnation. Thanks Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 That's not entirely true as Cape Verdean Blues has been an excellent sounding XRCD. I have it, I'm done buying that title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
