Leeway Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 More Mulligan: PRESENTING THE GERRY MULIGAN SEXTET : Mulligan (bari), Zoot Sims (as), Bob Brookmeyer (tb), Jon Eardley (tp), Dave Bailey (d), Peck Morrison (b). EmArcy Japan LP. Swings like crazy. Another nice sounding Japanese pressing. Quote
jeffcrom Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 MULLIGAN MEETS MONK - Thelonius Monk, Gerry Mulligan, Wilbur Ware, Shadow Wilson. Riverside/Victor Japan LP. Who benefited more from this meet-up? I did, for sure. i think this is much better than many would have you believe. At least I like it. And check out the Wilbur Ware's solo on "Decidedly" - the mono take, if I remember correctly. It's one of the great, odd bass solos in jazz. It's basically a "walking" solo, but at some point he turns the beat around so that he's walking on the upbeats. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) Hank Mobley 'Roll Call' (BN 47W63rd mono, DG side 1) I have a Japanese copy of that Mulligan Sextet album in the racks too. Will have to dig it out. Edited February 15, 2014 by sidewinder Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Masahiko Sato "palladium" (express, Japan red wax) Masahiko Sato "deformation" (express, Japan red wax) One of my favorite Japanese musicians along with Masahiko Togashi who appears on both of the above! These albums along with "transformation" and "penetration" are outstanding IMHO Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Rendell/Carr Quintet 'Dusk Fire' (UK Columbia, mono) Lovely album! I just have the Japanese pressing on Philips but it's in stereo and not a single crack or pop to be heard so I won't complain too much Quote

I just have the Japanese pressing on Philips but it's in stereo and not a single crack or pop to be heard so I won't complain too much Never heard a copy of the the Japanese reissue LP - only the BGO CD, which sounds pretty good to my ears. Fortunately, this copy was bought before prices hit the stratosphere. Edited February 16, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
BillF Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 The UK London issue. I had this at one time. Never seen that one before, but I used to have that fine looking Brilliant Corners on London - till I lent it to someone. Quote
Clunky Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 The UK London issue. I had this at one time. That's the edition I have. It sounds very good. Quote
porcy62 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Classic Records stereo reissue. NY, mono. NY, stereo. Edited February 16, 2014 by porcy62 Quote
Leeway Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 The UK London issue. I had this at one time. I like the US version because I enjoy seeing contemporary pictures of jazz players, here Monk and Mulligan. They are sort of erased from the UK version (I wonder why, but it is interesting to see how the cover varies, so thanks indeed for posting it). Along with the question: Who benefited most from this meet-up?, one could have an interesting little contest: "Please provide a caption for this photo (on the US edition)." Clearly something is being discussed; seems like Monk is putting something forth and Mulligan is considering it. Quote
blind-blake Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Vinyl probably would not be financially wise. Starting your label was not financially wise. But we're glad you did. I'd buy the vinyl reissue. Love the cover. Quote
