what is printed?
thanks

the original should have BOTH sides Lexington and flat edge vinyl. Cover should be Kakubushi frame design.
You have a second or third pressing… i think..
I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how to start a jazz vinyl collection. I’m already quite familiar with the different styles and performers of jazz but I know very little about jazz vinyl records. I’m a little confused about the differences between certain pressings, reissues, and how to tell if the record is an original. I’ve noticed that reissues are much cheaper than the originals, so should I stick to reissues to start out with? I’m a college student with limited funds but I really want to start collecting!!
Personally, I say it depends on what your goals may be… Are you into Hi-fidelity & have a decent stereo/analog rig? There are wonderful sounding & collectible re-issues that are a great way to get into the hobby.
Music Matters offers Blue Note reissues that are top notch, not just in sound quality, but the record jacket and artwork is just as impressive.
Analogue Productions offers Blue Note, Impulse, Verve, Prestige, Fantasy, etc, reissues. Great sound quality.
Original Recordings Group (ORG) is doing a Black Lion Reissue program. This just started. I haven’t yet listened to my first two copies yet, but if anyone is interested I can post an update.
Mosaic Records does vinyl reissues from time to time. A great company.
People tend to think the world of all Japanese reissues. They are just like anything else. There are great pressings and not so great pressings.
Concord Music Group which does the Original Jazz Classic series (OJC). These tend to sound good and is a good way for people on a budget to enjoy Jazz on vinyl.
There are a number of other labels that do vinyl reissues as well. It just depends on your personal preference and requirements. Great sounding reissues, just be on the look out for… what tapes are being used, who’s doing the mastering, cutting, and pressing.
As you can tell, original copies of 1st pressings can fetch big dollars. Condition is everything!!! You may get lucky at yard sales, flea markets, etc, if you know what you are looking for. Knowledge is key here. At the same time, the right reissues are not only a great starting point, but highly desirable and collectible as well.
Dear Collectors,
i’ve been an unlucky lucky finder yesterday: i found an original copy of Lee Morgan – Candy (BN 1590) in NM condition for a very, very cheap price – so i thought. When i pulled the LP out of the original sleeve, it was a japanese repress. I couldn’t resist though and now i hope there might be someone who wants to part with his spare copy of the LP he of course has sitting in his collection without the cover for years… might i be lucky this time and there be anybody jumping up who wants to help me? Thanks for replies, Chris
For all Bill Evans fans(like me),this recent review by Marc Myers on Jazzwax is like finding buried treasure.The promo clip at the end from Resonance Records will further whet one’s appetite:
I have a CD of Hank Mobley’s “Thinking of Home”. I don’t really love the sound on the cd(I do really like the session though). Does anyone have experience with King pressing of this album? Does it have good bass? I’m looking into improving my copy of this session. How about the UA, I’ve never heard it either but am usually less than impressed with some of those.
I recently picked up a nice mono copy of Coltrane’s “Ballads” on Impulse. It’s a nice looking record and cover overall, and appears to be an early press. However, the record I believe is a misprint. The release number on the label says A-32, which would coincide with the Coltrane title. However, instead of Coltrane’s name on the date, it instead has “Russian Jazz Quartet”. The album is ballads.. the track listings are correct, as well as the matrix numbers.. seems odd. I’ve seen one other instance on popsike, but very few details. Does anyone on here have a story they can relate about this one?
I just read a book that should be of interest to any serious Thelonious Monk adept:
Title: The Baroness
subtitle: The search for Nica, the rebellious Rothschild
author: Hannah Rothschild
publisher: Virago Press, London
ISBN: 978-1-84408-603-0
I sure learnt a lot about Nica and her famous protégé, Thelonious.
Mike F/Bill: do you mean a film documentary? In that case, the answer is no. Nica is the author’s great-aunt.
Anything more than just protection regarding Thelonious? I would say no. There was however more in her relation with Art Blakey.
Does anyone know when Riverside stopped pressing records? I found a large, deep-groove pressing of Bill Evans’ ‘Portrait in Jazz’ yesterday. It has a date in the deadwax of 3/13/65. I thought Riverside was defunct by that time and that Orpheum was pressing some of the titles on the aqua colored label since ’63-’64?
I think I found the answer to my question about the 1965 Bill Evans Riverside album. Apparently, the copy I found was one of the last to be issued on the blue mike and reel labels with deep grooves. I had incorrectly assumed that Riverside stopped pressing albums in 1964, but it looks like they were still issuing titles right into 1966, albeit without the mike and reels. I would have liked to have obtained an original 1960 pressing of ‘Portrait in Jazz,’ but a clean March 1965 pressing is pretty unique in its own way.
Could anyone help me in determining the value of my John Coltrame autograph ? It is from his last concert on 5/7/67 in Baltimore Md. It is on the flyer sent out by the Left Bank Jazz Society which sponsored the event. The flyer is thin blue and green cardboard with nice photos of him. After 45 years I don’t know if there are many ( any ?) of these still around.
duonri: interesting. He sold all the Blue Notes. No returns accepted. He has not got top money. A normal presentation would have given a better result. If it is a fraud, he has amassed some good money though.
Now the positive feedbacks are to be expected, or not!
Correct !
Remember the seller from Brazil, maybe one year ago ?
A similar story: top money records, too good to be
Now, again..
Also please have a look at some negatives that the current seller got: 2 past buyers recieved EMPTY mailers !
Is there an official DownBeat archives? I’ve been unable to get any response from the one in the western suburbs of Chicago. I’m a Chicago historian and am looking for articles about blues, not jazz per se and DB (along with Hit Parader) was about the only mag covering the blues at all (a few Playboy articles but not many)in that late ’50’s early ’60’s period. Any thoughts? The line where blues and jazz overlap interests me as well…anybody out there? Anybody know the details of a (DB sponsored?)music event in Chicago where Dizzy jammed with Muddy waters @ Soldier Field? 1964-65?
Hy,
I started to collect BN last year and would like to understand more about it. Frederick Cohens book is my new bible. But could you please tell me where to find the actual version of “blue note illustrated”, when megaupload is smashed down in between?
Thx in adance
Jens
I have a very unique item available that may be of interest to jazz collectors. It’s a beautiful piece of history, a great-sounding 16×16 Gretsch floor tom owned and played by jazz legend Elvin Jones. The window for when the drum’s Anniversary Sparkle finish was available, along with the early 60s Swissair baggage tag still on the drum’s case, makes it likely this drum was used during Elvin’s signature years with John Coltrane, possibly on a European tour. The sparkles in the finish have been tinted gold, likely from playing in smoky clubs.
I just wanted to say something about Larance Marable who passed recently. Larance was a hell of a player and one of a few remaining links to what I might call a “West Coast Hard Bop” scene. Don’t take my label to seriously. I was introduced to Larance through my love of Sonny Clark. Larance played with Sonny on a few great sessions that are some of my Favorites;
Sonny Criss “Go Man”
Larance Marable “Tenor man”(desert island album for me)
Larance also played on “Introducing Carl Perkins” and Lorraine Geller’s “At the Piano” both of which I dig.
But what I learned from Ethan Iverson’s blog post (An absolute URL: LINK: This is a short but nice memorial by Charlie Haden) was that Marable played with Haden on a number of nice albums in the 80-early 90’s. I haven’t listened to any of those albums in 10+ years but I’m going to listen to some of them today.
Foes anyone know how many Riverside records were pressed by Plastylite? I have a white label copy of RLP 4004, Geoffrey Holder- Songs of the Carribean. It has the deep groove, flat edge, and the ear mark.
I have a Herbie Hancock vinyl record and i can’t find any
information of it’s pressing. I found a repress version of it from the same
label with the same catalog number but the covers are compleatly different (mine
reading rock your soul with red letters). The catalog code is HMR 9011 and it
states the year -61, and the repress doesen’t even state it’s release year. It’s
a UK pressing and quite old but this is all i know.
Does anyone have a clue about what kind of release could this be?

Here’s a exhibit -from some years ago- of Blue Note photography in a (perhaps)unexpected locale. It’s nice to see the “Lion and The Wolf” getting much deserved praise in the land of their birth.
“Jesus Christ, what a night! I saw guys I hadn’t seen for years! They’d got fat and changed. Donald Byrd was twice the size of me! I looked at him and said, that’s you? Freddie Hubbard was up there bustin’ outta his suit. Somebody said we shoulda been called Art Blakey and The Jazz Bellybands.” – Art Blakey, quoted by Brian Case in Wire, December 1984, p.13.
This James Clay rarity-the one with Sonny Clark-has been recently reissued on cd in Japan.

publisher: Virago Press, London
ISBN: 978-1-84408-603-0
I sure learnt a lot about Nica and her famous protégé, Thelonious.
Rudolph,
Sounds like a great summer read. Do tell, any insight as to whether the Baroness was more than just an admirer?
I ordered the book(had to be shipped from UK). This is the author who did the documentary, no? I enjoyed the documentary.
Mike F/Bill: do you mean a film documentary? In that case, the answer is no. Nica is the author’s great-aunt.
Anything more than just protection regarding Thelonious? I would say no. There was however more in her relation with Art Blakey.
Hannah Rothschild directed “The Jazz Baroness” which showed on cable in the US. It was about Nica. I saw it sometime in the past year.
MikeF: you are right, she did a documentary which was on the BBC and HBO. On that basis then, apparently, she wrote the book.
Does anyone know when Riverside stopped pressing records? I found a large, deep-groove pressing of Bill Evans’ ‘Portrait in Jazz’ yesterday. It has a date in the deadwax of 3/13/65. I thought Riverside was defunct by that time and that Orpheum was pressing some of the titles on the aqua colored label since ’63-’64?
Bill: that is what I thought too.
I think I found the answer to my question about the 1965 Bill Evans Riverside album. Apparently, the copy I found was one of the last to be issued on the blue mike and reel labels with deep grooves. I had incorrectly assumed that Riverside stopped pressing albums in 1964, but it looks like they were still issuing titles right into 1966, albeit without the mike and reels. I would have liked to have obtained an original 1960 pressing of ‘Portrait in Jazz,’ but a clean March 1965 pressing is pretty unique in its own way.

I have Impulse glossy labels through at least A95 Ascension, so at least through 1965.
