Stonewall15 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 Has this LP ever been released on CD by Sony or anyone else? If not, why not? Quote
Ted O'Reilly Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 It was. Look for Columbia Legacy C4K-52945. Quote

mikeweil Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Columbia Legacy C4K-52945 is the 4 CD Brubeck career retrospective and includes only one track from the Compadres LP plus one from the concert recordings that was issued much later. Edited January 24, 2017 by mikeweil Quote
Ted O'Reilly Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 Aha! Thanks...my reference was incorrect. Quote
Stonewall15 Posted January 26, 2017 Author Report Posted January 26, 2017 Come on Brubeck and Gerry Mulligan fans. This LP must be on CD somewhere. Quote
Stonewall15 Posted January 28, 2017 Author Report Posted January 28, 2017 What I am looking for is an official CD released by Japan Sony. Less desirable is a CD released by others, likely Europe. In either case not a CDR. Quote
JSngry Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Are you "looking for it" in the sense that you know it exists and would appreciate directions to locating it, or in the sense that you're just hoping that it exists? Because, really, I don't think it has existed yet. http://www.davebrubeckjazz.com/Recordings/Detail/Dave-Brubeck-and-Gerry-Mulligan:-Compadres/0058 Quote
kh1958 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 It is a good record and worth seeking, but only on LP as far as I know. Quote
jazzbo Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 It's not available on cd. May appear via Japan in the future. . . they've released/reissued a few others that surprised me the last few years. Quote
JSngry Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Not even the Andorian Sweater Monkeys have ventured into this digital turfdom. Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 I've read that Mark Wilder digitized all of Brubeck's Columbia/Sony catalog and that there were plans to issue all of it in the form of those 5 CD "Original Album Classics" box sets that they started in 2010. The fact that they stopped after 2 boxes would seem to indicate that the money wasn't there. Then when they issued that "The Complete Columbia Studio Albums Collection" box set, I was thinking a "The Complete Columbia Live Albums Collection" was next. I just think the CD market is on its way out. Quote
JSngry Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 Brubeck/Mulligan perhaps do not have the same nostalgic mystique as Brubeck/Desmond. Quote
Stonewall15 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Posted January 29, 2017 JSngry- I do not know if the CD exists- I am just hoping that it does. Based on above comments I now doubt it. I do have a quite good CDR so I just would like to have the actual CD for completeness purposes, as I have all the rest of the Brubeck Columbia/Sony CDs. Kevin- I sure hope the jazz CD market is not on the way out. The problem is, I think, that most of the jazz from the 40's, 50's, and 60's has been reissued on CD and now CD producers are digging at the bottom of the barrel. Quote
duaneiac Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 It was surprising to me that two albums which Dave Brubeck personally did not like and was firmly against ever being reissued -- Jackpot! and The Last Time We Saw Paris -- were reissued by Sony Japan, and yet this Brubeck/Mulligan album has not been. Does a performer usually have any say-so with a record company regarding the legitimate reissuing of his/her recorded works? Or can a record company reissue an album to which they have the rights, against the personal wishes of the artist, so long as they as they pay the appropriate royalties? (Let's leave the European public domain reissues out of the equation.) The two albums I mentioned were not reissued during Mr. Brubeck's lifetime, but I don't know if he had any actual "veto" power to have been able to prevent that from happening. Quote
jazzbo Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 Interesting. . . I've never seen a cd of The Last Time We Saw Paris from Sony. Jackpot and Brubeck in Amsterdam were released in the last few years. . . but I can't find any reference to The Last Time We Saw Paris. Quote

It would depend on the recording contract, but probably not part of the practice when Brubeck was recording. If the artist owns the masters then he would have more control. Quote

Perhaps I am wrong about that, but I thought I read somewhere that it was reissued. It's not an album I've clamored after, even in a used vinyl version. Quote
jazzbo Posted January 30, 2017 Report Posted January 30, 2017 This was released but it was not the same concert. Quote
Stonewall15 Posted January 30, 2017 Author Report Posted January 30, 2017 As far as I know "The Last Time We Saw Paris" has not been released on CD. Maybe Brubeck's hold order has stood-up. Quote
