I tried re-creating the 45 version for Ed of "Dynomite (Part 1)" but I didn't have the correct version to work with. The only source Ed had was from The Best Disco In Town, which of course contains neither the 45 or LP version. The version on their disc is edited, but it's edited incorrectly. Some of the parts they edited out are needed to make the 45 version. If anyone has a CD copy of the LP version they can pass along to me, I can create the 45 version and send it out.

Sorry. You can't make the 45 version from the LP version. I tried. Seems that 45 version has some extra vocal parts during the breakdown not present on the LP version.

have you tried combining the parts that are not on the cd/lp version but on the 45 by combining them, then eq'ing them???

Hmmm...never thought of that. Perhaps when I get some time...

There are definitely some tricky edits, especially at the breakdown. I may also be able to use Ed's 45 to splice in the parts that are missing from the LP.

I just made an edit of the 45 version for "Dynomite" and Grant is correct. There is one vocal overdub on the 45 that is not present anywhere in the LP version. At (1:56), there's a vocal that says "yeah baby" that is nowhere to be found in the LP version. I may try tracking down a mint copy of the 45 to splice this part in.

Paul:
That's terrific news!! I've been looking for Don Cornell's '50s hits on CD and the only place I've been able to find anything is on the www.doncornell.com website. Unfortunately, those CDs are only available through the site and they cost an arm and a leg.
Just to make sure... Does the Most of All disc set contain the original hit recordings, Paul? And how would you describe the sound quality?

They are, but those are all transferred from vinyl. "Bible Tells Me So" and "Most of All" are available from the Don Cornell web site, digitally remastered from the original tapes by Marty Wekser, on this CD:
Don Cornell "I'll Be Seeing You"

Aw, then I'm passing on the Jasmine discs. Bummer. I guess it's just a matter of time before I break down and shell out the $45 for the 2 CD set on the Don Cornell website.

Yeah, Jasmine is one of those UK labels that issues public domain copyright-expired recordings from needle drops. (I'm sure we all know, but for those who don't, copyright in the UK, Australia, and Europe is only 50 years, so everything from 1957 on is now public domain in those countries.)
Jasmine used to do really good work, but I think in the past few years they've gotten really excessive with the noise reduction. Generally stuff on the ASV label sounds better THESE DAYS, though that situation used to be the reverse.
It could sound good, though... I haven't heard this particular disc.

It does sound very good, but there's no mention of using original master
tapes, nor mention of using original vinyl in the liner notes. The only
notation about engineering on this set is that digital processing was done
by Tall Order Mastering.

Glad it sounds good, Paul! That's what's important.
Labels like Jasmine usually don't list the source material, but they are all unlicensed (though legal) transfers from records. They are a great source for material that has never been issued on a licensed CD.

Jane Powell - Ms. Powell's hit "True Love" from 1956 is now
available on the CD True Love (Flare SPEC 1033). There is no
mention of the source, but digital remastering is credited to James Irvin.
And it sounds wonderful.

Paul:
Does it sound like Jasmine used its usual noise reduction on this CD (thus resulting in a loss of the high end)? If not, I'm wondering if the label simply dubbed digital copies of tracks from the CDs available on Don Cornell's website?
Also, that's great news to hear Jane Powell's "True Love" has finally surfaced on CD! It's one of six Billboard Top 15 hits from 1955-1959 I don't yet have in digital!

**This just in!** Jane Powell's "True Love" will also be surfacing on the upcoming ERIC/Hit Parade Records CD Hard To Find Jukebox Classics 1957: Pop Gold, which is currently scheduled for a February 18 release date. What's especially exciting about this disc is that 11 songs on this compilation are reported to be making their official U.S. CD debut!! I imagine Pat will want to review this CD for the website, so I'll try not to steal too much thunder here. But I'll go ahead and spill the beans on two of those "first-time-ever-on-CD" Top 40 hits:
Perry Como - The Girl with the Golden Braids
Jim Lowe - Four Walls
ERIC/Hit Parade Records also has another CD release slated for February 18 called Hard To Find Jukebox Classics 1957: Rhythm & Rock.

I compared "I'm Yours" from both Most Of All and Something To
Remember Me By (the CD mastered by Marty Wekser), and there is just
a teeny tiny less high end on Most Of All, but nothing to make it
obviously muffled or duller. I don't have the equipment to analyze, but if
the Jasmine disc was mastered from vinyl, or even non-original tapes,
they've done an excellent job. Brian W. could be right, though, in that I
think Jasmine would probably trumpet using original source tapes in its
liner notes if they had access to them.
By the way, I should also mention that I picked up a German CD of
Will Glahe, called Will Glahe und sein Orchester Vol. 2 on Membran
Music that does NOT, repeat, does NOT have the US hit version of
"Liechtensteiner Polka." (Oh yah? Oh no!) It has a version listed from
1955 that is instumental only.

I appreciate your sound quality analysis, Paul. I'm wondering if Jasmine may have mastered the Don Cornell tracks from existing CD sources and EQed it with a slightly less high end.

You may have just given yourself one more reason to pick up the upcoming Hard To Find Jukebox Classics 1957: Pop Gold CD, Paul! ;-)

The Eric/Hit Parade CDs are primarily needle drops too. Canadian copyright is same as in the UK -- that's why these Eric/Hit Parade CDs are being issued in Canada.

Greg Guidry--"Goin' Down"
For those who may not be aware of it, Guidry's 1982 LP Over The
Line, which contains both this hit and his other charting song "Into My
Love", is available as a Japanese import CD (Sony Records International SICP
8058). It's pricey, but available. (Aah, another one off the list!)
