I'll have to check if that 2LP set is still around in the shop where I saw it. I think it had some sort of "complete" tag to the title, but I'm not sure. thanks! ubu

Works fine for me, too! ubu

Not as far as we know! Hell, they sure should! And then, they should go on bringing us the complete sessions from all those live double albums from the 1970-74 period, too, as they will with the Live-Evil tapes. At least one of the Fillmore albums was cut toghether from several nigths/sets. And then they should start releasing legal reissues of many bootlegs... I never heard a note of live second quintet besides the Plugged Nickel and the Berlin stuff... ubu

Please do, but no hurry at all! I did not know about the Mosaic and the Clef dates! Write them an email about them presenting them on a select! Sure worth a shot! ubu

I guess they would not care if we did all the work, the main problem is - if we were producing all these discs of italian, french, german, austrian, swiss, polish, czechoslovak, finnish, danish or whatever jazz, they would never identify a single tune... ubu

Mike, those two other sessions ("Mood") - were they on the Vice Prez 2LP set? And the CD, the spanish one, is that complete in any way? Or is it some compilation? ubu

Also a nice addition to the Jacquet Mosaic! ubu

Even cooler if included in that 20% is the part that did Nicole Kidman... Thanks a lot for your concern about poor king ubu... It's nice to be part of the family... So how's about 1. Convinced Organissimo Addict (100%) ubu By the way, I forgot to mention it's exactly those 20% I do, well... ubu

Dizzy Gillespie was a Bahá'í, for however much that is worth. Jim, you know about a theologist article about Dizzy Gillespie and his religious beliefs you could recommend? ubu

In this case, you gotta hear the "Kid From Denver" disc! Perfectly fits the Basie bill! Nat Pierce does the Count, Joe Newman, Thad & Renauld (sp?) Jones, Henry Coker, Gene Roland John Carisi are among the other horns, Freddie Green, Eddie Jones, Sonny Payne, Wendell Marshall, Oscar Pettiford and Osie Johnson among the rhythm players. four dates in all, recorded 1956/57. Some tracks feature Sylvia Pierce (yes, they were married - quoting the liner notes, originally on "New Voices", Dawn DLP-1125, "She first met Nat Pierce, her husband-to-be, when she was fourteen. (. . .) when Sylvia was seventeen they started going together. In 1953 they were married.") I like her alright. Never heard anything else of her. ubu

I may have to disagree with you, my friend. Have you heard this material? It's some amazing stuff- I think a lot of the the pre-Wayne Miles recordings get overlooked and underrated. I personally am a fan of George Coleman, plus you've got some very interesting Sam Rivers here, too. I do think the quintet really came into its own w/Wayne, but don't sell this one short. Some of the most amazing rhythm section work you'll EVER hear. Maybe not the most radical or innovative period, but one worth checking out without a doubt. Tony is amazing. Herbie is amazing. Ron Carter is a rock. Excellent music. Absolutely agree! Love the My Funny Valentine/Four & More concert and the Antibes set! Will Miles in Berlin be included in that box, too? Should be, no? That's a beautiful SOUNDING album! You get the idea you could hear a feather falling to the floor on that one! (I've got it on a japanese Sony or CBS or whatever CD, sounds marvellous). And I never ever heard the Rivers album (and as I might not be the only one who needs this *problem* fixed, the set might hold at least one surprise...) ubu

Word of advice: I've tried these. They suck. Send me a pair of these, too No need to feel sorry, anyone. Larry, I'll have to give the disc another listen, but won't be able to do so right ahead. (Working on an exercise for university - see my Hans Baron thread...) I guess I loved the horns that much, that I have not yet REALLY listened to the rhythm section on that one - which would also indicate that I did not take note of their marring the whole date... But it's been quite some time since I last heard it, anyway. Another favorite: PAUL QUINICHETTE! I LOVE his record with Coltrane (though that's not one for this thread), and his Complete Dawn sessions (available from Freshsound/Blue Moon, see link posted above by PDEE), as well as his "Vice Pres" album. I have the later one in its VEE incarnation. Did the double LP include any tunes not on the VEE? I recently saw it in a store, here, but had no possibility to compare it with the VEE. Here come the covers: How are these two? (LOVE that cover!) ubu

I guess most of his work will go into creating an animated CD-case... cool, John! Hope for some unusal, to say the least, choices! (Will it be one, two or three discs? ) ubu

Err, well, I have to protest! I hope you noted the difference in number one of my list! humbly yours, ubu

Jehova's witnesses have given up ringing our bell, and yet I share 38% of their ideas?! And could someone please explain what no. 5 "Bahá'í Faith (78%)" means? Maybe this is an option? Hell, I guess NOT! Help! What would *I* need salvation for? Uh, oh! I guess I am a hopeless case, ubu

That's an interesting question, and one I did wonder about many times, too! Another thing might be the jam sessions. How did they come to happen? All organized ahead? Or just some cats hanging around in the studio? Maybe ask him about the late Mal Waldron, who seemed to play a quite important role in many of these jam session albums. Ask him about his "house" musicians, such as Waldron, Art Taylor, P.C. etc (well, I know they recorded for what label they could, but there were some appearing more often on Prestige, some more often on Blue Note etc. Sonny Clark, for instance, never made a date for one of the nowadays Fantasy-owned labels, except for that Sonny Rollins one, did he? How came?) And of course, Dan, let me express my heartily congratulations! (Can you tell us already where this interview will be printed? Any chance to read it here in Europe, too?) ubu

Not a problem, brownie! I was just getting confused, because I never saw Sonic Boom here, yet! ubu

As I get it, there are several historians among us. Anyone has opinions to share on Hans Baron's concept of "civic humanism"? Anyone read his "Crisis"? I'm currently working on a little exercise on Leonardo Bruni and in connection with that read Baron's "Crisis" among other things. ubu

Well, it's definitively not from the 50s or 60s, but it COULD be (and ubu LOVE it!): The Mosaic is a great one, too! And musically, there is not that huge a difference. While I'm not very strong on the question asked here, some favorites have been mentioned already: - the Buck Clayton Jam sessions (gotta Mosaic, love it!) - Jazz Reunion (Hawk, Pee Wee, Brookmeyer, Emmett Berry Then Clark Terry might fit the category, too (although maybe he's a little bit too young?), but both of my recommendations are maybe too modern for this thread: - his Candid date is great - his Emarcy debut LP (reissued in the VEE series) Harry Edison "Swinger" & "Mr Swing" - the only leader dates of his I've got, but two very good albums (also in the VEE series). Hawk made many albums that fit the category. Favorites might be the "Hawkins! Eldridge! Hodges! Alive!" and "Hawkins and Eldridge at the Opera House" albums: The Verve catalogue certainly holds dozens of great records to fit in here. All the Hodges and Webster recordings, the Benny Carter stuff, Eldridge etc. Oh, yes, the Hawkins encounters Webster is another perrennial favorite of mine! Two more: ubu

Thanks Tom! I wrote a Mail ten minutes ago, to know for sure, and already got a reply (still the best service in the business ): 330 are left! ubu

Then there's an even better (in my opinion, of course) Cliff Jordan twofer, called "Mosaic", which holds a very good Jordan date, coupled with an album Red and Jordan co-led. ubu

Thats one beaten up cover. You must have played that a lot. PDEE, I regret to inform you that this is not a scan of my cover. I have in on CD, but this is a nice and large reproduction of the cover... I've taken it from an incredible site that has been mentioned here somewhere already: here (click "Jazz Record" on the left and let the fun begin...) ubu B)
