RE: The Scorpio releases are difficult to identify until you know the small

thanks hiatt. these sound like records sold by half-price books with a label called "wax time". about $13. they are mostly famous jazz records, expecially miles an brubeck. my understanding is that they are pressed overseas possibly in Italy and mastered from digital recordings, possibly even cds. i have bought a few brubecks that sounded pretty good and the well loved cannonball adderly, somethin else that is dog shit.
for that price, to get that music, if an original is $50 and up and the good reissues are $30 to $50 and up is a bargain even if it is not the same quality but decent, as these brubecks are. but when they are as bad as the addrely, then just a rip off.

The club is very small, and I am guessing that it is 25 feet wide - alaskahiatt 23:30:56 04/23/14 (1)
