Chad, Brazilian music in general from the 60s-70s would be incredible to have given the audiophile treatment. Jorge Ben, Tim Maia, Tom Jobim, João Gilberto, Os Mutantes, Caetano Veloso, Astrud Gilberto. For sure Elis Regina would be huge because the originals are hard to find and honestly do not even sound that great. They tend to be noisy pressings, but the recordings themselves are incredible. Especially if their dynamic range was given the AP treatment. Elis & Tom in particular would be an excellent choice to start with (it's only had ONE reissue - only in Brazil - in the 21st century, amazingly!). I hope Acoustic Sounds considers expanding into more Latin American music for series like this. Fingers crossed. 🤞
I vote for island music , another musical form that can instantly transform mood. My collection is limited because I don't know enough to avoid the lounge act stuff.
@@Digginbehindthedikes Ive not actually owned a copy on record. Thought the OG was meant to be a good recording. I have the Helen Merrill with strings and that recording is outstanding. Which would have been a great choice
Hello Kenny, can’t wait for the Analogue Productions upcoming release from the Verve series The Ben Webster Quintet “Soulville”. Fantastic jazz, smooth as silk
Good to see a couple new titles being reissued. I already have most of the LPs you have already reissued in the past, but there are some I will have to pick up. Those new Contemporary reissues look killer. Can't wait for those to be released. Great work Chad!
I greatly appreciate the knowledge of his product. It is essential to any salesperson trying to guide a customer to the best buying decision. I count myself lucky to have an enthusiast with such a powerful industry influence . Because I am also an enthusiast, but not as skilled, and often learn something as the albums are presented.
Of course, any record that's coming out on this Acoustic Sounds Verve/Impulse Series is highly recommended because I'm the one picking these titles to begin with. So if you see it in this series, I can highly recommend it.
Really really really glad about the Jimmy Smith - The Cat. Is for me, at least top 3 best albums ever. Really looking forward to what you can do with this album.!
I have Ben Webster's Soulville and other OG Verve vinyl. . The Stan Getz and Bill Evans is one of those records I never see in the wild when vinyl picking. I have a very clean OG of Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie Ella's classic. This is an impressive list of reissues coming Chad.
@@acousticsoundsks Thanks for the response! Understand from a business perspective that Super Audio Cd demand may not always be profitable. Either way, I'm grateful for the titles you have chosen to release in that format.
Are these LPs cut directly from the master tapes? Or is the mastering done by a digital process from the tapes and cut from DSD or some sort of digital file?? The wording tells me this is not all analog process. Curious here- Thanks.
IMPRESSED !! I have a few already...and think I will get some from this list......can I suggest Blues In Orbit by Mulligan/Desmond for a future round ?
I think you mean Blues In Time. Blues In Orbit was Duke Ellington on Columbia, which we do have in stock - it sounds killer. Highly Recommended! 😁 We will listen to Blues In Time again.
Several of these, including Gerry Mulligan meets Ben Webster, were previously released under the Analogue Productions label. How are the new versions of the overlapping titles different?
You are correct. Analogue Productions has reissued the same title in 2018. The same Ryan K. Smith mastering/parts will be used. We decided that we were not going to repress it as we had ran out of jackets and Universal has a much bigger distribution. We think this record is great and should be available again. If you have the AP version, you will not find an improvement on this version, and you should be good. We see some comments from people that already have maybe the Classic Records reissue or the AP 45 reissue and ask us why we're doing the same records again - sometimes these records are no longer available and are going for high prices and there's new people coming to this hobby all the time. We can tell this by the amount that are being pressed and sold. Many of these titles that sound great, and are great musically should be available.
@@acousticsoundsks Thanks for the clarification. I have several Analogue Production Verve reissues including Gerry Mulligan and Ben Webster. They all sound superb.
Amazing line up for 2024! Night Lights is a must have. If at some point in the future you guys would look at doing a proper analog release of the Gerry Mulligan pianoless quartet sessions with Chet Baker from the early 50s, it would be a great service. Those recordings are timeless and important and for some reason have been overlooked for analog reissue.
Brazilian music in general from the 60s-70s would be incredible to have given the audiophile treatment. Jorge Ben, Tim Maia, Tom Jobim, João Gilberto, Os Mutantes, Caetano Veloso.

@@matthewjames2565 100%. There is so much just on Phillips alone (Gal Costa, Gilberto Gil, etc etc). But Elis Regina is a no-brainer and I presume Universal owns the catalog (though I’m not totally sure about that).
Interesting that Night lights will be from the analogue tapes. The newland jazz version, mastered and cut by Kevin Gray was from tape transfers because the original tapes were damaged. Whats up with that?
Who ever said the original tapes were damaged? I just listened to the TP for the first time a couple of days ago, and I'm very happy. I think people will really love this great album. I also just finished listening to the Kenny Burrell - Guitar Forms - again, another incredible sounding record.
Very sad to not see more free and spiritual stuff in this series, Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders last year were easily the things I looked forward to the most. Please dig more into the Impulse avant-garde releases, I'd be forever grateful!
That's evident, one of the only LP's he doesn't have a copy of and talks about for 6 seconds is the Sonny Rollins East Broadway Rundown which is a bit more "out there". I'd have loved more adventurous Impulse stuff too. Most of these here are great, but safe, and have been reissued so many times. One can expect every previous AP45 to be reissued as AS at some point actually.
@@acousticsoundsks Yes, I do check out a lot of their stuff, but it seems to be more obscure or side releases perhaps. I'd be hoping for something like Ascension from Coltrane, a 2 LP set of both issues of it as part of this series would be amazing!
@@TheWibachinski Thanks for your suggestion. We have done and will be doing a lot of Coltrane records - and we're doing most of the Coltrane on Atlantic in our 75 for 75 series. We have to take all of this into consideration. Honestly, we're not confident in how Ascension would sell as well as the others we've released. Again thank you for your suggestion.
Thanks…Here’s some recommendations to consider Stan Getz with Oscar Peterson - Stan Getz Plays- Stan Getz West Coast A lot of Ben Webster- let’s see more Stan Getz… please!
@@ronjetten6535 Ah! Then I must have them! Apparently I don’t have enough stuff cluttering up my house. Actually what they should do is re-issue the 45s with proper gatefold jackets instead of those terrible two in one pockets.
I noticed that Chad said that "Clap Hands! Here Comes Charlie" was mastered by Bernie Grundman but on the website, it says it will be mastered by Ryan K. Smith. Which one would it be?
Bernie Grundman mastered this for Classic Records around 1996 off the original analog master tape and it sounds terrific. We are using these parts. Sorry for the mistake.
looking forward to that Nina Simone, I have a beat up original copy, it plays but from a fidelity standpoint, it's a little lacking. Any chance you've got John Wright Trio- South Side Soul on your radar?
After the succes of Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders I was hoping for some more Free or avantgard'ish titles. Still some heavy hitters included in the 2024 line up.
This 2024 VASS list is amazing, Night Lights, Sweet Rain, and Root Down... are the ones that made my heart skip a beat! Thank you so much for those, but man, all of them are incredible :) Can I make a wish? Here's one I would love to see in this series: Stan Getz Focus.
i am not happy. I want most of what you have listed here. The price to ship to me in Alaska puts your records out of my budget, or what i am willing to pay, because you refuse to offer USPS to Alaska. Fedex for ONE record from you to me is $23.00 fuQing dollars. Shipping on purchases of over 99.00 Is NOT FREE for me.
You obviously haven't seen the Prestige collection. Take some time to educate yourself, because Acoustic Sounds has one of the most diverse and best catalogs around.
Kenny Burrell was my teacher and mentor at UCLA 2011

Imagine Arthur Verocai as a UHQR 🎉
@@Fatdogrecordsdon't know about that. It's not that great of a recording to begin with. Musically it's great obviously.
@@Digginbehindthedikes Ive not actually owned a copy on record. Thought the OG was meant to be a good recording. I have the Helen Merrill with strings and that recording is outstanding. Which would have been a great choice
Oh my god Chad, this is an impressive list of titles. Thanks for continuing this wonderful series!
Yes, I'm pretty floored too. 😻
Oh boy - good times are coming! Looking very much forward to these releases! Thank you Chad and associates! Cheers!❤
Thank you Chad and the AP team! Some must haves for me in this list and a bunch that I can not wait to explore.
Kick-ass! Sweet list Chad, definitely excited about a lot of those titles!
Highly recommended
Chad, thank you so much for all these great titles. Blessings from Germany
Outstanding Chad!
Fantastic lineup! Thank you for bringing these to the people. 💯💥
I'm psyched for the Getz Sweet Rain with Chick Corea!
Oh, may, june, july and august! Thanks so much, Chad. Gatefolds, please. Best regards from Madrid, Spain.
They've all been gatefolds so far.
Hello Kenny, can’t wait for the Analogue Productions upcoming release from the Verve series The Ben Webster Quintet “Soulville”. Fantastic jazz, smooth as silk
What a killer collection of artists and album titles on Verve are coming out in 2024. It's a jazz fan's dream come true! 😻
Brilliant work, exciting series, keep it up bravo Chad!
Good to see a couple new titles being reissued. I already have most of the LPs you have already reissued in the past, but there are some I will have to pick up. Those new Contemporary reissues look killer. Can't wait for those to be released. Great work Chad!
I’m going to be buying these records. I have no choice. I feel like I’m being extorted.
Jimmy Smith, “Root Down” - yeah baby! Awesome record!
I greatly appreciate the knowledge of his product. It is essential to any salesperson trying to guide a customer to the best buying decision. I count myself lucky to have an enthusiast with such a powerful industry influence . Because I am also an enthusiast, but not as skilled, and often learn something as the albums are presented.
Incredible lineup, but why release (some) titles you just put out on AP though from original master tapes?
SACD, please! 🙏I love the series, bought every single album on SHM-SACD. I can’t wait to get all of these, if they’re released in digital 🤔
Nice collecton of beautiful music.👍
Chad on every record: "HIGHLY RECOMMENDED".
And somehow i believe him EVERY SINGLE TIME ;-)
Of course, any record that's coming out on this Acoustic Sounds Verve/Impulse Series is highly recommended because I'm the one picking these titles to begin with. So if you see it in this series, I can highly recommend it.
Really really really glad about the Jimmy Smith - The Cat. Is for me, at least top 3 best albums ever. Really looking forward to what you can do with this album.!

"East Broadway Run Down" is one of my favorite albums. Thanks so much, Chad!

Already my favorite series, but this list is awesome. Every title I want.
More added to my wish list, and then on Friday even more.
I hope a number of these will be available on SACD. Notably City Lights and Guitar Forms. Thanks, Chad.
We'll keep this in mind. No promises.
@@acousticsoundsks Thanks for the response! Understand from a business perspective that Super Audio Cd demand may not always be profitable. Either way, I'm grateful for the titles you have chosen to release in that format.
@@TroyCooper-rw1pu Thank you for understanding.
Great to see these Ben Webster and Johnny Hodges releases!! Keep them coming!!
Root Down! Heck yeah!
Are these LPs cut directly from the master tapes? Or is the mastering done by a digital process from the tapes and cut from DSD or some sort of digital file??
The wording tells me this is not all analog process. Curious here- Thanks.
Chad, is the Mulligan Meets Webster 33 going to be the same RKS metalwork from a few years back that's out of print or a new cut?
Damn man, you going to get another factory? The AP roster for '24 is getting huge! Great stuff. 🙂
Finally, some Diana Krall titles! Killer releases. Looking forward to getting most of these, if not all.
Awesome! Sweet Rain was on my list. Is there anything Ryan can do with the wired way this album was recorded?
IMPRESSED !! I have a few already...and think I will get some from this list......can I suggest Blues In Orbit by Mulligan/Desmond for a future round ?
I think you mean Blues In Time. Blues In Orbit was Duke Ellington on Columbia, which we do have in stock - it sounds killer. Highly Recommended! 😁 We will listen to Blues In Time again.

Please, would you consider mastering Dale Jacobs Cobra. Great record and quite rare.
Chad, have you ever looked into doing any Elis Regina records on Philips? Like “Elis and Tom” (with Jobim)? Fantastic accessible Brazilian music.
That record really deserve an audiophile treatment... 🤞
@@diegosalvi7703 Yes and totally a record Chad would love

Chad needs to change the name of his record label/company to, I highly recommend it! Records
Do you have any info about the Diana Krall titles?
Rootdown 🔥🔥🔥
So you’re saying they are highly recommended? 😂. Just teasing. Looks like a great line up. Thanks for the head’s up.
Interesting that Night lights will be from the analogue tapes. The newland jazz version, mastered and cut by Kevin Gray was from tape transfers because the original tapes were damaged. Whats up with that?

@@acousticsoundsks It was heavily discussed in one of the forums. That said, it is not always true. I am glad be proven wrong with this edition!
Chad, when are you going to do Ella Sings Cole Porter Songbook????
I'm sure we'll do more Ella in the future.
Excited about these, and the inclusion of Diana Krall.
Very sad to not see more free and spiritual stuff in this series, Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders last year were easily the things I looked forward to the most. Please dig more into the Impulse avant-garde releases, I'd be forever grateful!

So many great impulse titles.

You may look towards the Verve By Request series, but we have nothing to do with their choices of titles, mastering or where it's pressed.

This is getting ridiculous. I need to get a bigger house to store all these awesome new releases from Chat, BN and MFSL. 😂
Love the Diana Krall titles!!
ROOT DOWN 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks…Here’s some recommendations to consider
Stan Getz with Oscar Peterson - Stan Getz Plays-
Stan Getz West Coast
A lot of Ben Webster- let’s see more Stan Getz… please!
Will they be gatefold or single jackets?
Please make them single jackets!
Would be beautiful to see them in reverse tip-on 50s style.
They will be gatefolds.
I have most of these form the 45 series. How are these different?
They spin slower
@@ronjetten6535 Ah! Then I must have them! Apparently I don’t have enough stuff cluttering up my house. Actually what they should do is re-issue the 45s with proper gatefold jackets instead of those terrible two in one pockets.
We cut these at 33, as some people prefer 33. These will also have gatefold jackets.
Any chance you could reissue hawkwind warriors on the edge of time? No audiophile label has touched their stuff.
Will these titles come out as SACDs?
Not sure.
Would love to see more emarcy records with the AS treatment. Clifford with strings would be incredible
We'll keep this in mind.
Well... thats the Getz/Evans one ordered!
Root Down!!

We'll keep it in mind.
WHO DAT⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️
have all of them...dont need recuts.
They were on 45 before now we get 33
Some people like 33. Some people like 45. Like me and many of our customers, we like both.
WE NEED ROCK!
