A Boris Rose production, disguised as a Swedish release to avoid legal repercussions. Christian gets side one; Wardell side two. The Wardell side, with the Benny Goodman Sextet and the Count Basie Seven, is all kinds of fabulous. My cover looks like this, but is light pink rather than blue. Any Christian there not available elsewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wardell side, with the Benny Goodman Sextet and the Count Basie Seven, is all kinds of fabulous. My cover looks like this, but is light pink rather than blue. Mine too. Yes, disguised as a Swedish release, but very thinly so. Not lasting longer than until the first one who reads Swedish comes along. At the top right it translates as "From the States, from Swedish Blue Station" (WTF?) The insert at "Tribute from Sweden" says "These are lots of fourteen from the United States" (WTF??? 14 tracks??) And below the pic it says "I am too tired to see anything where can we get something to drink?" (Any more questions? ) To the amusement (?) of those who have the LP, the Swedish babble below each tune sez thus: Left column: My foot is bleeding and is swollen It's bad here With more light You said this was going to cost Adjust the brake linings A soft drink Within an hour later Right column: I've got nothing to declare (at customs) Are we going to stop overnight en route Please change the oil How much will the extra weight cost Put this on the shelf Can you repair this by any chance A pillow linen bathroom mat (WTF again???? Did they pillage a tourist's phrase book??) As for what's not available elsewhere, I have not listened to the Christian side right now, but this discography ... http://www.djangoreinhardt.info/charlie-christian-discography/ ... provides some info on the titles (even rarer ones such as Song of the Islands, but others exist in multiple versions, of course) but does not give release information either. If the "hits" found there are anything to go by, most of the tracks on this LP come from Old Gold shows.

I only know that I don't have any of these tracks elsewhere, but I don't have any of the "complete" live collections. I would guess that they can be found there.

Yeah, I'm late to him but getting to know a few of his recordings now. I've liked everything I've heard so far from his 60s output 17 hours ago, sidewinder said: Saw that McKusick on the list.

mikeweil Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) It took me more than 30 years to find a copy of this LP, the only reissue of all 16 sides Arnett Cobb recorded for Okeh 1950-1951. To make my collector's luck complete it was unexpensive, and is in good condition. I wonder why Chronological Classics never reissued these; there are four more for Okeh from 1952 and six for Mercury, then eight for Atlantic, two of which are probably lost. Enough for another volume ....The Apollo sides cut before are all on a Delmark CD as well as on the Classics CD, but both these issues have a session the other CD has not, so completists need both.

mikeweil Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) That Savoy album is sadly missing in my collection - it's worth getting for the cover alone!
