Presenting Jazz Quintet 60 on Fontana label, and Jazz Quintet 60 on Metronome. The originals are very very expensive: ..but what would they be worth on an auction today, in a say Mint or VG++ condition

Sad to hear about funkyousounds founder Jason Koenig’s passing recently. I’ve bought a number of LP’s from his eBay store over the years, and most recently one at the end of June that was still sealed. Upon arrival, I opened it to find that it had an unplayable storage warp. He took it back, full refund no further explanation needed… Just a straight shooter all the way. Certainly a tragic loss to the community. Deepest sympathies to his family. Does anyone have any insights into what happened there ?

So much great jazz from Europe in the 60’s, most of it virtually unknown in the US except to collectors.

Bjarne Rostvold was an active drum,er during three decades producing a number of outstanding albums in addition to the rare ones from the 60es. There is Spotlight from 1981 with Tim Hagans,tr, Jan zum Vorde sax, Thomas Clausen p, and Mads Vinding b, Metronome records. Then Late Night Ceremony from 1986, with Jørgen Emborg p, Jan zum Vorde sax, Lars Togeby tr, and Klavs Hovman b, on Stumt records. Both are well recorded and excellent

Thanks Mark. I will mention my Ebay link in my profile. At the moment I’m just working on getting a sizeable following. My daily Blue Note exhibition has arrived at BLP 1536.
GST: thank for your message.

Hi Joaquim, I agree those Rostvold and the Jaedig titles are every bit as tough to find. Other than those three records, George Arvanitas- Soul Jazz, and Rene Urtreger on Versailles, I’ve been able to complete my Eurojazz wants list over a 25 year period of collecting jazz records. I’ve had opportunities to purchase them, but I was limited by finances, and I’m no longer adding to my collection these days.

I have those nice Japanese reissues of the jazz quintet 60 albums as well as the Rostvold on Hit. Also have a few Bent Jaedig Sawano reissues too. Great stuff! Missed out on a local copy of that Rostvold trio for only $20! A friend beat me to it. Do have an original “switch”.
