SBCD-3001 - Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall - Jimmy Reed [1986] A reissue of the 1961
double-LP set of the same name (Vee-Jay 2SR-1035) minus three cuts ("Blue Carnegie," "I'm A Love
You," and "Blue, Blue Water"). The 1961 liner notes are reproduced here for this CD, and although they
say that Reed's early hits are redone for this album, this is an error; they are the originals, many in true
stereo. This is not a live album; Vee-Jay A&R man Calvin Carter stated that they just rented Carnegie
Hall during the day (with no audience) so they could call the album Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall.
Noticeably better sound than the Charly CD, this has some minor hiss and some excellent stereo, but
also has seven rechanneled tracks instead of mono. This may be the last time the stereo master of this
LP was seen, however, since many of the stereo early hits always seem to show up in mono after this
point in time. Baby What You Want Me To Do (S)/You Don't Have To Go (E)/Hush Hush (S)/Found Love
(S)/Honest I Do (E)/You Got Me Dizzy (E)/Big Boss Man (S)/Take Out Some Insurance (S)/Boogie In
The Dark (E)/Going To New York (E)/Ain't That Loving You Baby (E)/The Sun Is Shining (E)/Bright
Lights Big City (S)/I'm Mr. Luck (S)/Baby What's Wrong (S)/Found Joy (S)/Kind Of Lonesome (S)/Aw
Shucks Hush Your Mouth (S)/Tell Me You Love Me (S)/Hold Me Close (S)

D1-74807 - He Will Break Your Heart: 2 Decades of Smash Hits - Jerry Butler [1989]
Also issued on cassette as D4-74807 and CD as D2-74807. For a CD that has the Vee-Jay logo on the
cover, one would expect access to some master tapes that sound better than the hissy tracks included
here, and one has the right to expect that the tracks don't come from records. Alas, even though we
have expectations here, none are met. Aware Of Love (S, hissy)/Find Another Girl (S, hissy)/Moon River
(S, no highs)/He Will Break Your Heart (S, poor separation, messy sound, mild distortion)/For Your
Precious Love [with the Impressions] (S, hissy, some clicks and distortion, no highs)/Where Do I Turn (S,
hissy)/I'm A Telling You (S, slight hiss)/I Stand Accused (M, CD bonus track)//Let It Be Me [with Betty
Everett] (M, from record, terrible, distorted sound)/A Lonely Soldier (S, hissy)/Motherless Child (S, pretty
good sound)/Just A Little Bit (M, from record)/Need To Belong (M, from record)/Make It Easy On
Yourself (M, hissy)/Strawberries (M, from record)/Ain't That Lovin' You Baby (M, from record, some
distortion, CD bonus track)

was established, with a consequent improvement in sound quality. These were also issued under the
Vee-Jay label, manufactured by Chameleon. Catalog numbers also correspond to the original Vee-Jay
catalog numbers, e.g., Vee-Jay LP-1007 becomes Vee-Jay VJD-81007.
