The Art Blakey set clearly was not made from original LPs. More likely, it was made from previously released CDs, "reastered" and "digitally enhanced" so it would not be absolutely identical to those. This has been going on for quite some time.
I believe the EU has extended the period before sound recordings enter the public domain from 50 to 75 years, but I believe that applies to recordings from 1963 and later.

Small correction: 70 not 75. The extension from 50 to 70 years protection does indeed only apply to recordings communicated to the public (published) within 50 years prior to 1st November 2013. Those recordings whose period of copyright protection had already expired did not come back into copyright.

2013 minus 50yrs...... 1963.......which group began to sell in large numbers in 1963 ?
3 guesses.
In the US there is the curious phenomena of very limited releases of rare material, coming out within a few months of going out of copywrite protection. "Release" is a reletive term. The material is available commercially through 1 or 2 vendors for only as long as required to establish the beginning of a new copywrite period. Recent examples include Beatles, Stones, Beach Boys concert regordings and other previously unreleased material that was sitting in vaults. Otherwise the material would enter into the public domain, and the various bootlegs in the market would become legitimate.

Happy listening,
