That one? Chris McGregor & The Blue Notes Eindhoven Netherlands June 21, 1979 Dudu Pukwana - reeds Rev Frank Wright - reeds Chris McGregor - piano Johnny Dyani - bass Louis Moholo - drums others unknown CD1/42:15 CD2/45:36 TT: 87:51 Sound: A-/B+ Lineage: unknown source > cass > Peak > Xact Note: A free-blowing late-period session from The Blue Notes. Anyone know the complete line-up Got better documentation abou it? This is not "classic" Blue Note stuff, as far as I can tell, but it's a nice one! They had lost some of their ZA jive feel and soaked in a lot of US blacknuss vibes by then (who wonders, with Rev. Wright in there), still I like this recording!

What's the duration? The most most recent Lee Morgan Conn ("Sonic Boom") was not copy-crapped due to long duration - seems that discs of a certain lenght (76? 77 minutes?) cannot be released in crappy versions for lack of space on the disc.

The Teagarden is highly recommended! I love that disc! Beautiful songs (mostly or exclusively by Willard Robinson)!

Bringing this thread up again... (I have in the meantime heard Irene Schweizer perform, btw...) Below are some photos of Chris McGregor and the Blue Notes I found on the www and thought would be nice to share here! ********************* Early sixties THE BLUE NOTES Concert at Africana ON PICT:CHRIS MacGREGOR’S BLUE NOTES from Southafrica f.l.t.r.

I'm a little biased because I was there, but have since listened to the BBC broadcast several times, but: the Braxton is phenomenal. Everyone in the UK who's into this stuff has been talking about it. The whole band plays an absolute blinder (Taylor Ho Bynum in particular!) ← I've heard the Braxton set (on a webcast-sourced CDR, I think). Good one, yes! Would be interested to hear more about the Nabatov if anyone gets it! The Nabotov/Bennink (OOP now?) that I picked up upon David's recommendation is fabulous! How's the Nabotov on hatOLOGY?

Just picked this one up used: A beautiful disc, highly recommended!

Sorry folks, as usual the interview will be conducted in Swiss German... Exactly in two weeks time we'll meet Uehlinger! Anyone in with any questions?

Happy birthday, Chris!

Someone posted on the Dime Jazz Email List that Amazon sent him a cancellation mail for his order, since the release of the set was cancelled. I didn't post that here, since I don't know that guy, but now that another source seems to seed this same rumour, I thought I'd share it here. How ridiculous this all is!

It's a bit more mellow, istn't it? If one wants to hear Trane going nuts, Paris is the choice, but I *love* All Blues on the Zurich set!

Probably the single disc digipacks? I have the older Trema 4CD set. I have no issues with sound, but then I'm no audiophile. The plus of that version is a very nice booklet with material documenting the controversis that arose after the Paris crowd/critics/musicians were more or less shocked by that angry man on tenor... interesting stuff, that I assume you will neither have in the cheapo laserlight edition nor in the digipack edition. This is what I have: And this is how the (single disc) digipacks look: Trane, March 1960: Stitt from October 1960: There seems to be a new version of the 4CD box-set, too: Then here's the Laserlight cheapo edition: And here's the Zurich release on Jazz Unlimited (I like this one a lot - am I alone here?):

Hey, would you post what you have, please? I only have some "elaborated guesses" I put up with help of Losin's site... If anyone needs the cover are for the HSHB Forensic, drop me a PM, I got it somewhere (I think from dime, when the tree was seeded, recently).

I have a couple of these but forgot to ask William Claxton to sign them. This would have suited him better than the very heavy copy of the book he signed! He had a bit of a trouble lifting it and opening it to the first page to sign my copy! The book is quite astonishing. One of the very best jazz photos book ever! ← This book is astonishing! No way I can buy it now, though! Saw it in a shop this week... it's almost as big as the Taschen Newton ("Sumo") and Araki books! (Not *that* expensive, though...)

The JazzUnilimited CD has liner notes by Jan Lohmann, the author of THE Milles Davis Discography book. Doubt that he would contribute to a grey release! ← I know, but he also wrote the liners for the JUCD "Miscellaneous Miles" which includes the whole Newport "comeback"-gig, the two cuts from Bohemia with the Jaspar-Flanagan-Chambers-AT quintet, some tracks with Pres from Europe, fall '56 JATP tour, plus the session with Edelhagen... this is definitely "grey"! And fegh Columbia for not releasing the full Newport set!

This thread coming up again made me play the great live release on Leo again! Love it! Pino Minafra, trumpet, flugelhorn, didgeridoo; Guido Mazzon, trumpet, flugelhorn; Alberto Mandarini, trumpet; Giancarlo Schiaffini, trombone, tuba; Sebi Tramontana, trombone, voice; Lauro Rossi, trombone; Martin Mayes, French horn; Mario Schiano, alto saxophone, voice; Eugenio Colombo, soprano and alto saxophones, flute; Carlo Actis Dato, tenor and baritone saxophones, bass clarinet; Daniele Cavallanti, tenor and baritone saxophones; Gianluigi Trovesi, alto saxophone, clarinet, bass clarinet; Renato Geremia, violin; Paolo Damiani, cello, bass, voice; Bruno Tommaso, bass; Giorgio Gaslini, piano; Vincenzo Mazzone, drums, percussion, timpani; Tiziano Tononi, drums, percussion. Detriti (14:18) Ippopotami (08.10) La czarda dell'aborigeno (10.20) Pierrot Solaire (13.17) Noci...Strani frutti No. 1 (12.06) I virtuosi di Noci (13.45) Munasterio e Santa Chiara (01.10) Track 3 recorded on 30 June 1991 at Europa Jazz Festival, Noci; other tracks recorded on 24 January 1992 at Festival International du Jazz, Rive-de-Gier. Cover design (reproduced above) by Guiseppe Genco.

And I assume it's correct that this Amsterdam date is the Scheveningen set, yes?

Fully agreed. Those two were the first I got from this tour. What about the Jazz Unlimited release of the Zurich set? Is that definitely grey, too, or is that some kind of radio thing with some kind of arrangement? Jazz Unlimited is part of or related to Storyville.

I know who she is - she's Maren! (and that's just fine with me...) ← Same here! I don't know wtf maren is talking about in that post before yours!

Happy birthday! I wish you only the best, Guy! And thanks for being a friend!

Sure you aren't thinking of Maren or another female? I know, it's hard to tell them apart. B-) ← I just saw this today! (doing a search to make sure I wasn't duplicating mention of upcoming Mori/Parkins gig in Houston) No, I'm not Zeena, but we're both on that Tom Cora tribute CD mentioned about 200 pages ago... (I've posted about her -- and neither she nor I would promote OURSELVES to that extent!) ← Hey maren - since you're digging these old posts out again, I thought it would be fair to let you know that the mystery was unveiled ***** I'm not sure I've mentioned that here, btw, but the Mori/Parkins concert I saw in Zurich a few months ago was great!

Imo, labels such as Lonehill function in a significantly more ambiguous area of odiousness when they release "grey market" items such as this than when they release material that is blatantly pirated from legitmately copyrighted "official" recordings. It's still a sticky area, to be sure, but it's sort of like the difference between stealing somebody's furniture out of their house and "helping yourself" to stuff that's left out on the curb. Sort of... ← Agreed, but then today there are means to keep the bootleggers from earning money with this stuff. And it seems that many of these grey market items on Lonehill don't sound better than the version floating around, either, so there's really no reason to pay for this stuff - best would probably be to pay some to the musicians or their estates.

Hey, wait, get your old handle back, Sir! Are you serious? Thanks for the kind words! I'll drop you a PM again, soon!
