Cut From The Original Analog Master Tapes By Kevin Gray. All Analog Process (AAA). High Quality Vinyl Release. Original Gatefold Design. All runouts are etched. In 1962, legendary jazz pianist Bill Evans collaborated for the first time on record with jazz guitarist Jim Hall to create the landmark album Undercurrent. And even though it is a two-person improvisational affair, it is almost unfathomable that these two giants alone fill up all the grooves on this record. The thoughtful interplay between these two musicians created such a beautiful, lush, and emotional journey that their work influenced many. At the time of this recording, Bill Evans was one of the top jazz pianists (his performance with Miles Davis on Kind Of Blue is still a high-water mark), but he had stopped performing and recording after the death of his peer, bassist Scott LaFaro.

The best-selling Paris live performances by the great Karajan with the BPO and VPO are now available on SACD! The bestseller is back again with a new remastering and a surprise reissue of the bestseller, featuring the most coveted performances of Beethoven, Locatelli, R. Strauss and more. This is a remarkable disc with a new charm different from the CD version, carefully remastered using the original INA sound source (24bit/192kHz). The 180 minutes of content is recorded on a single disc, taking advantage of the recording time available only on SACD. The 1960 recording with the Berlin Philharmonic is from the final day of the Beethoven Ticles in Paris, which began on April 21 of the same year.The 1962 recording with the Vienna Philharmonic is also available in stereo. The very rare concerto concerto by Locatelli is sublime and gorgeous, and Boskovsky's solo is a gem. From the main work, Schubert's "Unfinished," to Karajan's eponymous "Zarathustra," to the encore, you will be struck by the seamless and magnificent sound. King International

Charly Records are proud to announce the first ever long-play release of New Orleans' best kept secret Little Buck. With only two singles to his name on the Seven B label and a couple more on Instant with Huey 'Piano' Smith, this album can only exist thanks to a deep dive into Charly's vast haul of Joe Banashak master tapes. The record in your hand not only includes Buck's super rare funk 45 'Little Boy Blue,' (now in glorious stereo) but six unreleased tracks.There are two instrumentals that were clearly set up to have vocals added, and whilst this didn't happen 'Untitled 1' is a great slice of funk in it's own right and 'Untitled 2' gives us a glimpse into what Huey Smith sounded like on electric piano. The two ballads 'Starting With Today' and 'If I Could Do It Over' are showcases for that great voice. Of the two remaining tracks 'Soul Brother, Soul Sister' sounds like it could have been a Huey's single, whilst 'I'm Your Little Chicken' is nothing less than an unreleased funk classic.

This first volume of the collected original compositions of David “Dawg” Grisman is comprised of works written between 1963 and 1975, compiled chronologically in the order in which they were written. These performances were selected by the composer and include eight previously unissued tracks featuring David with Vassar Clements, Jerry Garcia, Bill Keith, Tony Rice, Frank Vignola, Clarence White and many others. In a March 1996 concert review, a Chicago Tribune critic described Grisman's "dawg" music as being among "the most important innovations in American music. By blending the exuberant spirit of bluegrass, the inspired melodies of classic American pop, the improvisatory techniques of instrumental jazz and even the plaintive gestures of turn of the century Klezmer, David Grisman has created a distinctive form of American music and lifted it to the level of high art."

First released for Record Store Day 2014, the title is now available on gold vinyl, pressed at Pallas Group in Germany.
