Newk's Time (on my turntable).

This recording is excellent.
Nothing holding back the BST.

Crazy bargain.

Borderline criminal. If any of Morgan's output can be considered underrated, that is one of them. Even though I love the cover, I think it limits the appeal a little bit, but people would be gushing over it if it was released as a TP.

 

[HayesWeighsIn]

That Sonny Clark is tempting. Any thoughts on the pressing?

Loads of tape errors, sadly. I love the session and still listen to it, but that tape has reached the end.

 

[Jbraswell]

I have Dial S and thought it sounds great.
It's mono but nothing comes across as below par for a BNC release.

 

[Jbraswell]

The Real McCoy
Cymbals are in your lap
Elvin Jones!!


One of those BNCs where you go wow!

Do we have the list of upcoming Tone Poets yet?

Not yet. Joe leaves crumbs of what is coming on his Instagram.

Do we know if Grant Green's - Green Street is getting the treatment?

It's not one of the ones Joe hinted.

I have this really unlucky streak of buying stuff and then it gets announced as a TP a few months later.

yep these have pretty much all been "confirmed" and i think there are a few others that have not been "leaked" by Joe yet. Last I heard official list is out Jan 15-ish

@uvwxVinyl Green Street was a MMJ pressing, so will likely not get tone poet treatment. possible for BN Classics though I suppose.

There's the Donald Byrd - At The Half-Note Cafe Vol. 1 coming next month.

That was technically last year’s release that got pushed right? Think it was meant to be out in December and that’s why the official announcements for this year got pushed back.

I may be wrong but I thought it was 2022 release (delayed)

I have no idea, it could be. I just saw it was up for pre-order.

I am probably a buyer when it goes on sale. Bet it's way better than the stream.
