Anybody know where I can find all recordings of this album? Or where I could purchase the record?

I know there are members here who downloaded all of the Note recordings when they were readily available online. Maybe one will offer them to you. I can't find it right now but there used to be a USAF Band website that had all of the old recordings, and the Note had its own website. I can't find it now.

Great link to that archive site!

I was very saddened to lose the "airmenofnote" site. In addition to a LOT of mp3 postings, it had the best history I've seen of the 'Note. I think some watered down summaries are somewhere in Facebook now.

Unfortunately this archive is spotty, at least on the earlier history. The beginning is covered, early years not so much, including Sammy Nestico's leadership time.

Sure was sorry when the original site dissappeared!

Thanks for the link!

Thanks for the material on Bone Voyage. It was indeed a sad day when that audio archive of multiple recordings from the Airmen of Note vanished. I don't have the recordings, but I do have a matrix of the songs recorded, their composers, arrangers, and album titles. And I do have some of their arrangements.

I have a copy of “ everything”. I’m doing some fall cleaning today but let me see if I can pull it up

I was able to find a sealed copy of this album on discogs. I sent the vinyl off to Sonic Recreation (http://sonic-recreation.com/) for high resolution digital conversion. Files just came back today, and they sound great. This was the first time I've used that service, but they do good work.

Hey Mike. I have searched for the Bone Voyage songs for over a year after I discovered Dave Steinmeyer. What a great trombonist he is! So, could you email me the MP3 files so that I can add them to my trombone music? I will be glad to mail you a check and you can cash it before you email me the MP3 files.

Thanks in advance.

At one time there was a website (that doesn't exist now) where you could download all of the historic AON recordings. I didn't do it, but I think Matt has them. And I think they were directly from the studio master tapes.

Are those legal for me to host? If so I can add them to an S3 bucket and distribute for free

Let me see if I can figure that out sometime this week should be pretty easy. If I don't post something by next week someone poke me.
