Brad Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 By “Further Adventures,” you mean “Further Explorations,” right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Too bad, in a way. Thought it might have been something I didn’t have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrdlu Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Lon, do you prefer the sound on the JRVG CDs? There has been criticism of Rudy's CD reissues over the years. I have a large number of them, both U.S. and Japanese, and I've never heard a bad one. A tangentially related question: Have you heard the 2019 CD of "Bobby Hutcherson's "Total Eclipse" (UCCQ-9516)? I have the 80s U.S. CD, but I suspect that the new version will be better. We are often not told who remastered Japanese CDs, and new issues often re-use earlier masterings.

jazzbo Posted November 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) Yes, I didn't always prefer the sound of the JRVGs, but as my system has evolved, and become more flexible, revisiting the JRVGs I was really impressed with their sound, and I love their packaging. So I have been buying these when I can find them less than 20 dollars, and have decided I don't need to keep other copies of the same title when I have duplicates. (I also bought and just received that Superbit Jazz Classics version of "Byrd's Eye View" you had pointed out remastered by RVG--sounds wonderful). "Total Eclipse" does sound a bit better In this new reissue. Edited November 19, 2019 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrdlu Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Yes. That issue of "Byrd's Eye View" is an excellent package in every way. I also have "Watkins At Large" in that little series. The Transition LPs didn't have the album notes on the back cover. Instead, a loose booklet was inside the cover. My copy of "Bird's Eye View" has a cute replica of the booklet, but when "Watkins At Large" arrived, it had no booklet. Do you, or anyone else, have that CD, and did it come with a booklet?

jazzbo Posted November 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) My copy of "Watkins at Large" is not from the Superbit Jazz Series but is an "RVG Special Edition" mini-lp release, and it has an insert, but not a Transition booklet.

Shrdlu Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 I have that mini-LP version. The insert you mention must be the mainly-Japanese info sheet. In English, it has the tune titles, and a nice discography of Doug Watkins. I was hoping for a replica of the Transition LP note booklet. These loose inserts can be missing from second-hand Japanese CDs. Some people go nuts about the OBI strip: CDs with those can command much higher prices; Kupiku makes a big deal about them.

jazzbo Posted November 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Yes, I think mine came sealed, it was years ago, and only that insert. So happy to have this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
