Description

Another wonderful Contemporary Masters release featured unreleased tracks from many of CBS's greatest jazz vocalists--entitled "Singing Until the Cows Come Home." This four-side/two-disc acetate features Lambert Hendricks & Ross, Tony Bennett with Stan Getz, Mose Allison, Carmen McRae and The Gordons. These acetates have not been listened to more than once and are in excellent condition.

Almost 40 years ago, I worked as a producer at Columbia Records. Much of the work was with the jazz roster--including the deep and illustrious history of this company through its reissue programs, "Contemporary Masters" and "Jazz Masterpieces." This acetate/test pressing comes from my personal collection along with any information I may have written on the jacket. In many cases, we cut several generations of masters before we (and especially the artists) were happy with the final sound. Mastering is a very important step in the final production of a recording session. In most cases, this is the only copy that was "cut," and it was passed along to executives and artists for their signed approval. The sale of this acetate does not include any inherent rights, nor are they imploied. The recordings and music are owned by the record label and/or artists. To commercially release this material would violate those rights.
