mjazzg Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 NY Mono. Recent acquisition sounding very nice 5 hours ago, sidewinder said: Just in from HJs - along with the two Futura reissues. ‘Live A Gaveau’, also on Sam Records, has also just arrived from Paris, so I thereby proclaim today as ‘Gilson Day’. Nice. How do the two versions compare? Quote

Same repertoire - still working my way through the original but presentationally the ‘Live’ LP looks lovely. Will report in due course. ’A Gaveau’ is a corker of an LP. Plus of course it has Woody Shaw with Sonny Grey as added bonus, playing some very robust arrangements. Next up - Sahib Shihab with Gilson’s ‘Unit’ 8 minutes ago, mjazzg said: NY Mono. Recent acquisition sounding very nice I’m sure it knocks the Tone Poet for six ! Edited March 13, 2021 by sidewinder Quote
sidewinder Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) First impressions of the ‘Live a Gaveau’ album are that the concert was recorded in excellent sound, with the audience atmosphere captured very well. Nice and crisp recording by INA - only recently found, apparently, previously believed lost. So, it complements the studio version very nicely, although maybe the ‘ringer’ soloists such as Shaw are missed. My copy is a French Waxbuyer’s Club Edition - in fact I think this release was done for their subscription, with a very limited number also put out on sale on Sam’s site (now OOP). It comes with fancy OBI and second JP Leloir insert photo of the concert. Edited March 13, 2021 by sidewinder Quote
