So far we have: Lou Donaldson - Here 'Tis The Three Sounds - Hey There Joe Henderson - Mode For Joe Any other titles with unreleased tracks discovered now that the March 2015 batch has been released? Oh, I guess I'll need to buy "Here 'Tis" again then ... any new Baby Face is great news!

all the way through - -wonderful set! :tup

Not on my copy. Sorry, had seen your post in the office but forgot upon coming home that day ... here's a pic taken from my disc - back of the one-page/two-fold booklet. Inside has the same big city silhouette plus small pics of Lateef, Knepper, Flanagan, Williams, Phipps and Roach (at least so they say - wouldn't be able to tell if the Phipps was correct, and the Williams at that). Traycard offers more or less the same as the above, but a few production details and the short blurb are missing, and there is some additional info (in addition to the line-up and the line about the strings players): Apologies for the lousy shot!

Trying to figure out the Pres material ... Vol. 16 #1-7 "Just You, Just Me": March 19, 1949 - Lester Young Band - Royal Roost, New York City Jesse Drakes t; Jerry Elliott tb; Lester Young ts; Junior Mance p; Ted Briscoe b; Roy Haynes d Bebop Boogie (Young) These Foolish Things (Morrell-Strachey-Link) D. B. Blues (Young) Just You, Just Me (Greer-Klages) December 4, 1948 - Lester Young Band - Royal Roost, New York City Jesse Drakes t; Ted Kelly tb; Lester Young ts; Freddie Jefferson p; Ted Briscoe b; Roy Haynes d [be Bop Boogie (Young) - missing] [i’m Confessin’ (Neiburg-Daugherty-Reynolds) - missing] I Cover The Waterfront (Green-Heyman) How High The Moon (Morgan Lewis) Sunday (Coots-Grey) #8 - 12 "Pres Is Blue" February 22, 1950 - Lester Young Quintet - Savoy Ballroom, New York City Jesse Drakes t; Lester Young ts; Kenny Drew p; Leroy Jackson or Aaron Bell b; Jo Jones d Mean To Me (Turk Ahlert) On The Sunny Side Of The Street (Fields-McHugh) Pennie from Heaven (Burke-Johnson) Stardust (H. Carmichael) Three Little Words (Kalmar-Ruby) (Note: way too many other tunes recorded at this date/these dates to list them all here) Vol. 15 (#1-10 are Dial sides by Charlie Parker released as "Many Miles of Davis") #11-16 - "Pres" all from the same Savoy Ballroom date(s) - except: not sure about "Blues", the first track. There's no matching entry for a blues (or for "D.B. Blues") in the listings I'm aware of ... the performance is truncated at the beginning ... the tenor solo is great, the audience seems to be cheering the band on (or maybe it's the others on the bandstand?), there's a pretty neat, somewhat boppish trumpet solo following (Drakes, I'd guess), and then as soon as they start riffing (what's the tune anyway, doesn't sound like "D.B. Blues"!) the track starts fading out. Vol. 30 Charlie Parker - Lester Young "An Historical Meeting at the Summit" This one has me somewhat puzzled ... line-up matches the date/location provided: Carnegie Hall, NYC, September 18, 1949. This was the date where "The Opener", "Lester Leaps In", "Embraceable You" and "The Closer" were recorded - but the tracks included here are completely different (granted, there's a take of "Lester Leaps In", even two, but hey ...) - as mjzee has suggested this might be some material taken from other CPR albums. Fits with regards to the Pres material for sure (and the mysterious "Blues" is there again as well).

Happy Birthday, Allen!

Joyeux anniversaire, Claude!

Thanks a lot, l p, for all those details! So I need to buy another disc, it seems ... (and need to get started on the Jazz Icons DVD's finally - I've seen one or two from the library, but not the Coltrane).

I'm after a physical copy of this. i think I'll try the label directly once I've worked out how to navigate their Italian only website. This should be on the way to me from the label. As Flurin describes elsewhere email the label and they reply ( in English) and sent me a Paypal request for the cost+shipping. Hopefully the disc should be here soon. The Trio disc is outstanding. What for me started as a desire to support a fellow O member has developed in fully fledged and unashamed fan-boy status. Perhaps the latter has been obvious for some time in my postings but for those who haven't sampled Alex's output the new trio disc is as good a place as any to start. You shall enjoy it, it's excellent - both discs!

Not sure how "new" and "previously unrleased" this is (neither how "from original tapes" is meant ... the Coltrane release in the same series sounds a bit muddy and has the usual fake applause, so it's maybe "original dubbed/edtied/faked tapes", but certainly not "original tapes") ... how does this compare to the Blue Note CD "Billie's Blues"?

Ordered several weeks ago - not too familiar with Clayton, but love those Jones/Haden duos and am looking forward to hearing more of Jones in a similar setting!

I'm like ... 13 volumes behind - but good to see the series continue

Just did so, too

Excellent album indeed, Alex! I've played it four or five times by now and am enjoying it immensely!

Well, someone will let us know about some Larry Young mosaic sets found in the warehouse for sure ... I don't know the RVGs, but only have the old "domestic" discs for the Blakey Bohemias ...

Should read here more often, I guess ... UK has fairly pricey offers by now only, but there was one lone copy around on the continental sites, sold by amazon itself ... snatched it up at a more than acceptable price - not shipped yet, but I'm optimistic! Thanks for alerting me, David! Good luck! It is being processed, so I guess I'm safe! (Provided the post won't freak up ... glad I'm not in Germany, as far as that is concerned.) I'd appreciate any feedback re Cafe Bohemia disc and how it compares to the RVG. I'd a Kenny D nut. Still have the old McMasters of those ... anyone with any insight into specifics there? The Van Gelders look lovely and I often thought of finally getting them, but then there's still piles of stuff I don't have and want to explore, rather than re-buy things. But it's a slippery slope and I've bought a few of those SHM discs and they're a fine bunch for sure! (So far, I restricted myself to ones adding previously unreleased takes though, even if it's just a second alternate as on "Workout".)

I'm not in the market for this, but some might be interested: € 34 at amazon.de (pre VAT deduction)

Congrats Mike, it's a fabulous set!

No bassist on which CD? On the "Tracks in the Sand" one, bassist ist listed as Arthur Phipps - and just in case, it surely does not sound like Mingus at all. Great to hear some more Richard Williams though! Enjoying my first spin right now.

Thanks, that looks like a very cool label! All I have from them so far is a Morton Feldman solo piano disc.

Ouch - what's the name of the label? Or is it still too early to share more information?

If I were a vegetarian, would I need be offended? Seriously: the Peppers were mentioned somewhere, earlier - as vinyl only, I think? Seems of two of them, there are CD editions as well (one is listed LP only in the catalogue, the third as well and that ones seems to be LP only in fact).

That is very cool news! Please keep us posted about further details!

I'll wait for a BluSpec or SHM-CD edition.

now is the time to search for new Bradfords - there a bunch of good ones. Indeed! The OOP "Kampen" from NoBusiness (vinyl only) is very much worth looking for, too ... in addition to "Silver Cornet" that is, which needn't be "looked for", rather than just be bought!
