I don't think any of Schweizer's '60s and '70s output on FMP has ever been reissued on CD. Reminds me also of the situation with Ran Blake: all that stuff he did in the '70s on the Owl, Novus, and Golden Crest labels (not to mention a 1969 record on Milestone) never got onto disk and has fallen into oblivion. As has a lot of other vital stuff from that era, although the situation has improved somewhat of late with the Delmark, Sackville, Screwgun, and Sun Ra reissues. (Leo Records' long-awaited reissues of their early '80s catalog - Crispell, Kuryokhin, etc. - and also the Zorn reissues from that period also deserve mention.)
I wonder if any decade in jazz has been less well served on CD. And I wonder how different perceptions of jazz history would be - per the jazz-died-in-the-70s canard - if we could just hear that era's output.

But only a small portion of the FMP catalog has been reissued.

I think that one reason is that the 70's were the first decade following what
many people (not on this list) consider the apogee of jazz. The 80's are not
far enough to make us feel the same vacuum but let's wait ten more years...
On the reissue side, I tend to be fairly optimistic when I see what has been
done recently with the British jazz (Keith Tippett, Mike Westbrook, Ray
Russell, Mike Osborne, Tony Oxley, etc).
The "problem" with FMP, Incus, and ICP is that they refuse other labels to
reissue their catalog. And since it is natural for artists to put more
emphasis on what they do *NOW*, old recordings get lower priority.

Well, in recent years we've started to see a change in this, at least where
Incus is concerned. Emanem got to reissue the Iskra 1903 material, Dexter's
Cigar reissued 'Aida,' and Organ of Corti packaged the 'Incus Taps.'
Perhaps as time goes on more such labels will see these deals as a way to
satisfy consumer demand for older material while generating a bit a working
capital in order to underwrite newer projects of their own.
Of course, in some cases we're also contending with the diappearance of
original source material. What small reissue label wouldn't sell its
collective soul to reissue 'The Topography of the Lungs,' which Bailey has
reported lost forever? Of course, if Bailey and Parker could reach a
gentleman's agreement on that particular session, I bet Atavistic could do a
reasonable job mastering from clean vinyl. Wouldn't be the first time.
