BruceH Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 You Heard It Here First! (Ace)---26 classics from the 50's and 60's heard here in their original, pre-hit versions. A great idea, and someone could easily fill 3 or 4 (or more) CD's with original versions of hit songs. I didn't know that "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley & the Comets was the SECOND version of that song. The first was by Sunny Dae & the Knights. Quote

jeffcrom Posted May 30, 2009 Report Posted May 30, 2009 Varese: The Complete Works - Chailly/Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra/Asko Ensemble That's a great album, even if some of the unfinished stuff is kind of disposable. Quote

Dave James Posted May 31, 2009 Report Posted May 31, 2009 I just dropped way too much on a 9-CD collection from the Swedish Metronome label. It's called, Jazz in Sweden, 1949-1961, The Legendary Years, a Rhino Japanese-only release. For a fan of Nordic jazz, it's a genuine treasure trove. Among others it includes artists like Ake Persson, Harry Arnold, Rolf Ericson, Gunnar Johnson, Georg Riedel, Jan Johansson, Arne Domnerus and two full CD's of the great Lars Gullin. In addition to the "locals", there are generous appearances from visiting Americans the likes of Stan Getz, Benny Bailey, Roy Eldridge, James Moody, Freddie Redd, Jimmy Raney, Tommy Flanagan, Quincy Jones, Ernestine Anderson, Teddy Wilson, Zoot Sims and last, but not least, Clifford Brown. The packaging is first rate, as nice as I've seen. A hard shell case with a beautiful booklet. Only problem is it's mostly in Japanese, but this is a minor negative considering the overall quality of he music and the presentation. I couldn't be happier. An easy 9 out of 10. Up over and out.
