Julius Wechter & The Baja Marimbas' New Deal CD was issued by Bay Cities in 1990 and has long been out of print. This is a really great CD that should not only appeal to Julius Wechter fans, but anyone who likes jazz!
I have been in touch with Bruce Kimmel, producer of the CD and there might be a desire on his part to re-issue the CD if there is enough interest from Julius' fans. We are looking at mail order availability via Bruce's company and other internet sources, so this would be very convenient for the fans.
He has indicated that he would want to create a new cover, booklet and graphics for the release and I have asked if there are any other tracks that were left out that could now be added. If we show sufficient support for this project, it can be released at the start of the new year. For those of you who truly love the music of Julius Wechter and miss his amazing talent, this is your opportunity to tell a record company what you want. Anyone who is registered at A&M Corner can vote in this poll and post a message. Anyone else can contact me at my e-mail address below to express your interest in this re-issue.
Thanks,
