I only figured it out by using the translator. I got lucky. Hopefully it will be archived. The setlist was: Moto Grosso Feio N.E.W.S. Nature Boy MacArthur Park Who Needs Forever? Legend Antigua Universe The first five were arrangements written for Lee Morgan, but no one knows when he was supposed to play or record them. We may never know. The last 3 are related to Miles. Legend was played at UCLA in May 1967 by the Gary McFarland Orchestra. Neither Miles or Wayne played on it, as far as I can tell. Antigua was played by Miles and Gil at Berkeley in 1968. Universe was played by Wallace Roney, but he may have been the first. The conductor was saying these were all premieres, but not the last 3.

The first tune just started. Not something I would expect Lee Morgan to play!

It seems to me the tab called 'Philharmonic Two'. It sounds like the classical portion is first, but she mentioned Wayne Shorter.

Radio Poland. https://www.polskieradio.pl/ If I understand correctly, Polish radio will broadcast this live at 2PM EST Saturday 3/21 (40 minutes from now). Ambrose Akinmusire and his band with Dayna Stephens plus orchestra. Universe, Legend, Antigua plus some mystery charts for Lee Morgan.

I just got a shipping notice.

I found the siter and was able to download a few issues. Is it still possible to bulk download?

I am OK with paying ahead as long as I get the book at some point!

I thought it was coming in April? I better get it soon. Even though it was a pre-order, I already paid.

So the Cadence from 7/1/69 might be there or not?

So you have PDFs of years of downbeat up to 1969???

Cayetano, How did you find this article? Is there a website one can find these? 1970 is probably PD. Bertrand.

Thanks! It seems it may have been Spring 1969 rather than summer.

Does anyone have access to downbeat and cadence?

Warning - Concord started repressing titles as CDrs. I got burned about 5 times. I have only bought a couple of used ones since. Sealed ones are suspicious. I will go through this link just in case...

I had never noticed this before but Jeff McMillan's Lee Morgan chronology has Lee taping a propaganda film for USIA in June 1969, and playing with a big band on the program. Nipsey Russell, Billy Eckstine, Etta Jones and Joe Carroll were also involved. It is mentioned in downbeat (2/19/70) and Cadence (7/1/69). Lee was in California most of the month, so it would be in early or late June. The video or audio may still be out there. I asked on Facebook and googled. The USIA archives are either in the DC suburbs (National archives in College Park, MD) or Fayeteville AK. Let's find this before the Jazz Detective does. College Park is next to Hyattsville where Lee recorded that Left Bank DC gig that Fresh Sound said was in Baltimore.
