    by the way, almost forgot Electric Mud even existed, what a fucking mistake. Tom Cat officially kicks the shit out of IT

    I have a complete LP and 45 discography at home in Chicago. I'm sure someone will post it before I get back. The reason why the Bagshot and Rotary Connection weren't listed is ostensibly because they were released after the GRT Chess takeover, when the catalogue numbers got all fucked up. But they were CC, ever though they were grouped in number order with the other Chess releases.

    well i suppose i would be a little interested in seeing the 45 discography as well...usually when i find a non-status quo cadet concept 45 its some decent soul song or something....

    There were only about 30 45s, as I recall, and mostly album-found singles at that. But Harvey Scales makes at least one appearance, on the last listed single.

    the big one you missed is archie whitewater S/T, but you have most of the goodies. 22 seems a little high? maybe.
    this page has the best overview i could find:
    http://www.bsnpubs.com/chess/cadetconcept.html

    by the way, that photos awesome. your floor is perfect for flossing chess/cadet/checker/argo!

    and i admire this quest. never saw the klemmers you have, though ive seen many other klemmers 20000 times.

    The reason why the original listing starts at -312 is because that number is the area code for Chicago.

    a friend in town got archie whitewater for 50 cents on some guys porch record sale...if only i had been there...

    yeah i checked that site, but its kinda funny, the record they chose as an example of the label design isnt even included in their discography!

    youve never seen blowin' gold? strange...although that other one ive never seen or heard of outside of my copy...i borrowed a bunch of records from my friends uncle one time, and.."forgot" to give that one back. since it was mostly big-name stuff i was borrowing (zappa, others) he must have just forgotten about that one.


    is "eruptions" worth getting? my local shop has a copy. i guess i gotta get it either way to complete this collection.

    someday if i ever have the time and money, id LOVE to have a complete Cadet/Chess 1965-1971 collection as well...anybody close?

    Stretch yourself to ??74 and get Jack McDuff??s "Fourth Dimension" LP. So dope.

    Cadet Concept is one of my favourite labels. So many dope records! The Aesops Fables "In Due Time" LP is great, and all that "updated" mega funky blues stuff is fantastic!

    I've been thinking about trying to get completist on this too. Though I thought I'd start with the mp3's, and see which Lp's I really needed. And I'm kinda glad I did. I've been wanting the Bagshot Lp for a while now, but after hearing the rest of the album I think I can pass on that one.
    Does anyone have the Violinaires' lp? Is it any good? Sounds like it could be interesting, or awful.

    If you're looking for quartet gospel that sounds like southern soul, the Violinaires are a good group to look into...not just on Chess, but also on Jewel. Definitive moment: "I Don't Know," which is the exact same song as Laura Lee's "As Long As I Got You" (also on Chess), but with protest-song lyrics.

    The only 2 CC I am missing is "Electric Mud" and "Aesop."
  • pickwick33pickwick33 8,946 Posts


    Contains a dope version of "Thanks For The Memories" arranged by Charles Stepney, with Phil Upchurch and Muddy Waters playing dual guitars. And a Maurice White breakbeat. Possibly the most influential Chess artist this side of the Chicago Cubs.[/b]

    Is is OG Electric Mud black with white writing? Mines white with black writing.

    Another thing, are any Rotary Connection lps any good? I tried to listen to one called Dinner Music or something and thought it was pure

    I think Black may be first, but both are early, both have the book. I have had the White Cover on a green All Platinum distributed label, so that is a little later.
  • thropethrope 750 Posts
    mines black on white also, thought it was OG, but maybe not.
  • chasechase 767 Posts
    I have been on the hunt for all the concepts for a while now, but Im just sticking to the field.. Its looking like Im going to have to get that Whitewater off the bay though...

    Any 45s that are not on albums?

    Then you need to get it.

    I think if someone is going to be a CC completest they need both the Black and White covers.

    324 Howlin??? Wolf S/T
    325 Joel Vance What I Did On My Vacation
    331 Aesop???s Fables S/T

    I have never seen these 3 LP's how are they?

    Is The S/T Howlin' Wolf similar to his other Cadet Concept release?. Is the Aesops Fables S/T better than their first album? and what is Joel Vance all about?

    LamarTinson[/b] The best Rotary Connection albums IMO are Songs (an album of contemporary covers of the day rearranged by Charles Stepney and turned on their ear), and Hey Love (Features the soul classic Black Gold Of The Sun).

    Aladin, and Dinner Music are pretty blah to me. Their Christmas album "Peace" is interesting and the S/T has Memory Band which is a hip-hop sample classic.
