Do these remain exclusively Japanese releases, or do they eventually show up from other suppliers?

These types of things often show up at Dusty Groove, but it's carpe diem.

The Woody Shaw can be preordered: https://www.dustygroove.com/item/168264/Woody-Shaw-Joe-Farrell:Vim-N-Vigor-Live-1985

and so can the Tyner: https://www.dustygroove.com/item/168263/McCoy-Tyner:Inner-Glimpse-Live-1986

Well, these is a part of the Japanese Greatest Jazz of All Time series (oh those strikingly original Japanese series titles), which was inaugurated by the first-ever release of Sanders / Hicks Frankfurt concert . It was licensed through Timeless Records (a legit Dutch outfit) and sounded excellent. I am pretty sure the recordings were legally licensed directly from the broadcasters. 

Sanders / Hicks duo Vol. 2 is coming out this month too, btw.

Probably my favourite jazz subgenre.

Yes, the CDJapan machine translations are sometimes quite humorous!  Here's another gem from the Shaw post:

"Woody Shaw recorded his album "Wim and Vigor" with Joe Farrell, known for its lost jazz cover"

Not lost. 

Nice cover. But (perusing the back cover) that's a studio album and Woody Shaw isn't included, so the reissue in question must be something different? Despite sharing the title. 🧐 Strange.

That's the upcoming cover right? 

This is not really a reissue, having never been legitimately issued at all!

I've always found that Farrell album cover to be exploitative/creepy. 

At least that!

Cover concept by Todd Barkan and cover model...Miss Holland!!!

Looks like the same photo as his album on Timeless with the Tone Jansa Quartet.  Maybe makes sense given the Timeless connection discussed above.  I also like the looks of it, like the bluish tint.

Looks more like a bodybuilder/weightlifter than a beauty queen, which ups the weirdness/disturbing ante. 🤔

Cover Art was not a particular strength @ Timeless 😎 ....

Agreed. Wasn't that Pullen/Adams 'Don't Lose Control' also one of their artistic masterpieces?  At least with Cedar's 'Eastern Rebellion' LPs they kept it simple and got it right.

No, that one was on Soul Note. That cover, though puzzling, has always made me laugh because the woman pictured surely looks like a streetwalker.
