Take this one - it's a cheap issue, but that group is excellent! Second that - stylish performances for sure.

1) another vote for proper Xanadu reissues 2) another vote for proper HORO releases and, as already mentioned recently in another forum : 3) bobby jones benefiz konzert http://collectorsfrenzy.com/details/...rom_Burghausen

Otto Klemperer Philharmonia Orchestra from 1955 and as previously mentioned Karl Böhm Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra from the 70`s

Some personal favourites (beneath the already mentioned Richter and Lupu) Austrian pianist Gilbert Schuchter - more or less complete Schubert (Tudor, unfortunately out of print) Rafael Oroszco 960 (Auvidis Valois, out of print) Rudolf Serkin 840, 859 and 960 (Sony) and as a real "dark horse", Karl Betz performs an excellent D960 (Christophorus) and some marvellous "Ländler" (Koch Schwann) .......... actually did I mention Fritz Gulda ;-)) ?!?!?!

Quote I guess, but will want the trio (though I've got to double check about that first, too).Unquote Buy with confidence, this Trio session is marvellous and didn`t surface before on Cd level. (Oddly) three great Boland-Woode/Clarke tracks stemming from a different session - being featured on the REARWARD CD Johnny Griffin "Griff`n bags" are not included - depriving the new Cd of the "Complete Bloand Trio recordings" status....but we should settle for what we got ;-)) Enjoy the Cd+Liebe Grüße Emil PS Reposting this as my first post "didn`t make it"......in case the original post turns up later I would ask the admin for "clearence " ;-)9

The impeccable Mr. Samson Francois and his achievements reg Debussy are worth acquiering for sure http://www.amazon.de/The-Debussy-Recordings-Samson-Fran%C3%A7ois/dp/B007G3HAAM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377680366&sr=8-1&keywords=samson+francois+debussy and also Friedrich Gulda`s try on Preludes (by the way a fabulous MPS production from the late 60`s) are near to my heart http://www.amazon.de/Preludes-Ga-Friedrich-Gulda/dp/B000MR9BTC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377680714&sr=8-1&keywords=gulda+debussy

Don`t know about the Brahms Piano Sonatas specifically, but Zimerman was VERY sensitive (picky ?) about his recordings and was in the position to force DG to withdraw some of these..attached pls find a part of an interview (unfortunately only in german), where he talks about a recording with Karajan he didn`t want to be released at at all...and so it happened.... ...sie haben einige Ihrer Platten vom Markt zurückgezogen - eine Aufnahme mit Herbert von Karajan ist nie erschienen. Ich habe damals die Deutsche Grammophon angerufen, um zu sagen, dass ich die Platte nicht freigeben möchte. Die Antwort war: "Das musst Du Karajan schon selbst sagen, er hat schon sein O.K". gegeben. Ich bin dann drei Tage um das "Kempinski" geschlichen. Dann war es 6 Uhr abends, ich weiß das noch ganz genau. Ich habe geklopft und gesagt: "Ich habe die Wahl zwischen einer schlechten Platte mit Ihnen oder gar keiner mit Ihnen. Und ich finde die zweite Lösung besser". Dann habe ich mich hingesetzt und gedacht "And now, kill me". Er hat geschwiegen und gesagt: "Gut, spielen wir das noch einmal". Es passieren selbst im Klassik-Markt noch Wunder.

Recently re-listened to Eric Kloss "In the Land of the Giants" on Prestige feat the already forementioned "dreamteam" B. Ervin-J. Byard-R. Davis-A. Dawson............................Loved it.

On a slightly more unexpected appearance, Ricky Ford has some terrific solos on Kip Hanrahan`s second album from 1983, released on his American Clave Label and titled "Desire develops an edge"...............btw same applies to John Stubblefield.......

His recordings with Booker Ervin are very important to me. Furthermore, I really like his ferocious playíng on Hannibal Marvin Peterson`s Muse outing from 1972 titled "Epistropy&Now`s the Time". A friend of mine who witnessed subject concert mentioned that Richard Davis had his fingers bleeding after the gig.......

Have to second the strong recommendation reg. the Schuppanzigh performances. Slightly off-topic, more marvelous playing by them is to be heard on two CD`s with the Ferdinand Ries String Quartets - released on the German JPC label with a more than decent asking price !!!

Group feat two bassists : Woody Shaw - Blackstone Legacy Clint Houston - Ron Carter Contemporary For the purists : Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen & Sam Jones Duo Steeplechase And even more than 2 bassplayers : Bass Violin Choir - Bassically yours Fred Hopkins, Phil Bowler, Gregory Maker, Rufus Reid, Brian Smith and Bob Cunningham Black Saint

For it`s sheer brilliance of playing (and quite in the contrary to his rather clinical 70`s Liszt performances for DGG) try this Lazar Berman late 50`s/early 60`s Liszt recordings http://www.amazon.de/Russian-Piano-School-Lazar-Berman/dp/B000001HBZ/ref=sr_1_58?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1361391603&sr=1-58

No. Performances are different years, venues and personnel (different drummer and WV set has pianist.) Mark, thnx for the correction - could you pls shed more light regarding date, venue and musicians featured in subject Youtube-Video ?

I believe that`s the same recording you can also see via Youtube - the rhythm section looks like a bunch of "college boys" at the first glance, but their performance ist powerfull and captivating at the same time - great solos by guitarist ross traut and bassist ratzo harris.

thnx for your feedback !!

John, thnx. As I assume you do have this CD, so I will send you an PM reg further infos. Regards Emil

Yes, you`re right. I do have the LP(s) too, but as three rather long tracks each (aprox 25 minutes) were squeezed lp`s sides, I wondered wether the CD edition would feature a more dynamic transfer (espec. jimmy woode`s bass !!)....don`t get me wrong, it`s a great session and getting this cd would be just an added bonus to me.... Speaking of running times, subject discography http://www.jazzdisco...rsonTed-ldr.php features substantially longer tracks 3&4 Date: May 13, 1966 Location: Baarn, Netherlands Label: Fontana Ted Curson (ldr), Booker Ervin (ts), Ted Curson (t), Jimmy Woode (b), Edgar Bateman (d) a. 01 Roy's Boys - 15:31 (Ted Curson) b. 02 You Don't Know What Love Is - 8:21 (Don Raye, Gene DePaul) c. 03 Cinq Quatre - 12:10 (Ted Curson) d. 04 Musis Sacrum - 12:19 (Ted Curson) e. 05 The Leopard - 7:57 (Ted Curson) f. 06 Latino - 10:35 (Ted Curson Is this an error or are these mastertape infos and the released tracks are edited ?? Just wondering..... Thnx for your feedback, regards Emil

Looking for this CD is best possible condition !!

Indeed. The guitar is a high point. Someone I'd like to hear more of. here you go - another recording from this group via a performance @Edmonton Festival 1976 http://www.allmusic.com/album/edmonton-festival-1976-mw0001649234

Paul Desmond Live 1975 A&M feat. Bickert-Thompson-Fuller......wonderfull !!!!!!!

paul bley trio - blood 18.43 (from touching - fontana) randy weston+vishnu wood - african cookbook 15.10 (from perspective - denon) and all the live stuff from rollins trio late 50`s/earla 60`s, mal waldron trio/quartet in the 70`s/80`s, cedar walton 4tet, hampton hawes trio in the 70`s.................

Very saddening news. Will always be one of my faves, especially due to his Artist House duo outing with Hampton Hawes aptly titled "As long there is Music".

RIP Also loved his co-operation with Rahsaan, but he was also nicely featured on Beaver Harri`s outing "Beautifull Africa" on Soulnote (from the late 70`s)
