felser Posted September 27, 2019 Report Posted September 27, 2019 Wounded Bird has just reissued CD's of the Elvin Jones albums recorded on Vanguard in the mid-70's (in roughly descending order from my decades-old memories: "New Agenda", "The Main Force", "Time Capsule", "Summit Meeting"). They previously reissued the Elvin Jones/Oregon album along with their other Vanguard Oregon titles. Not essential Elvin, but I'll pick up most of them. Quote
sidewinder Posted September 27, 2019 Report Posted September 27, 2019 I’ve got a few of them on vinyl - well worth picking up. ‘Time Capsule’ is a favourite. Quote
JSngry Posted September 28, 2019 Report Posted September 28, 2019 What's the combined length of these four records? Quote

JSngry Posted September 28, 2019 Report Posted September 28, 2019 Exactly. I knew those records from when they were new, and I'd be more inclined to buy them in a cost-effective bundle than as 4 single CDs. Nothing really "wrong" with the music, not that, it's more the production/assembly of the programs for the records, seems like it could have been tighter or something. Anyway...Wounded Bird certain finds their niche and fills it well. Kudos to them! Quote
