TB Jazz

I've been interested in puting together and printing a couple of hundred copies of a (quality) TB Jazz CD for some time now. How many of you have recorded material (one or two tunes) that could be included in such a CD? All forms of jazz would be acceptable.

(This is just a "feeler" thread. I'd like to see what, if any, sort of interest there may be in doing something like this)..

An interesting notion.

What do you plan to do with it?
Are you looking for originals only?
If not, who will pay for copyright clearance?

IS this somehow different from the TalkBass DoubleBass CDs (referred to as the Johnson Chronicles)?

What's up with the Limited Usage Agreement that they're using on the SAMPLER and could that work for Xavier the Saviour's project?


Naw, it just covers usage by performer to TB. Question of mechanicla rights clearance never is broached. What was the deal with teh TB/DB? Is that cause it's not being sold?

Just so y'all know, I haven't abandoned this idea, and am considering various options/scenarios before I post a follow up. As stated, the main purpose in posting this thread was/is to garner some ideas and get some feedback before tackling the nitty gritty issues and formulating a viable plan of attack. Unlike the TB CD currently in the works, it IS my intention to produce a "All-Jazz" CD that will be commercially available, if only in limited quantities thru limited outlets - I'll defer marketing strategy to any one (or more) of you who may have more expertise in that area. Logistically, I think this project is feasible, however, I understand the need to tackle the legalities. Limiting material to originals is not, in my view, realistic. How to tackle the issue of license and copyright is something I am looking into, but I don't want to put too much effort into this if I don't sense that there is support for it. Any ideas from the group will be welcome.

There is a collective talent within these forums which I, for one, would love to see immortalized on disc.

(Welcome back, Ed.)

Treena Foster mentioned in the CD sampler threads that getting a limited use license for cover material was very easy and inexpensive.

You can contact the Harry Fox agency via email or the web.

This agency is used to maintain mechanical rights for cover tunes, if you get the permission from them and submit the permission with your TB form, you can submit cover songs for the TB sampler CD, it's not difficult to do.

If you have any questions about this process, PM me and I will be happy to help you.

Edit: Tombowlus did the Legal Mambo for us. I presume he
could help you navigate that snake-pit as well.

Additional Edit: I went and looked at the site, they license
500-2500 copies at songfile.com. They do not accept under 500 copies. A license for 500-2500 copies is $42.50 for the
song I was interested in, plus a $10 service fee.

If the legal/monetary issues work out, I have a couple of items from the Harry Pickens Trio recording I'd like to submit.
