According to the bio, Stan hated it. Personally, I think it’s great ! Which reminds me, I need to get ‘Free an’ One’ with Peter King, recently reissued by Clark T. Wonder if the ‘British Jazz Explosion’ will reissue some of Stan’s albums on vinyl? Edited June 9, 2021 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think, Allen was only 19 years old then. About the age I had when I played with him for the first time. Later in the 80´s, when we had a gig, he brought the album "Zig Zag" where he is featured. Such a great musician ! yeah, I have that Zitro LP, which is killer. I don't have the Zig Zag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Prompted by discussion elsewhere on the forum that it's being reissued: Kenny Burrell - Night Song (Verve, 1969) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Next up: Kenny Burrell - Up the Street, 'Round the Corner, Down the Block (Fantasy, 1974) This one should be reissued too. Strange that it hasn't been already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that it hasn't been already. That was the album he was touring with the first time I saw him. His band, too, not a local pickup group. La Bastille in Houston (RIP). Yes, I saw Richard Wyands about a month after graduating high school! And had no idea who hey was, except that he was in Kennyy Burrell's band. And I remembered the name, couldn't do that with any of the others, though. Return with us now to the golden days of yesteryear etc. Burrell's 70s Fantasy output is all strong, and apart from the Ellington sides, all of a piece. I shudder to think about how all 5 (minus the Ellington records) are all going to come to market, but legit pop labels have no problem packaging 5 LPs of 30-40 minute (or less!) duration into 5 CDs with original album packaging and seeing them for enough to get by on. He probably played better "jazz" before and after, but that run from Argo/Cadet-CTI-Verve-Fantasy made for better records (except maybe Verve, but Creed Taylor did him right, finally, on CTI). If there was to be a next-gen Mosaic, one that was less concerned about the old traditions than the new, developing ones, that would make for a good steamer trunk, especially if you start at Columbia (and maybe you should!). Just very...listenable records for most all levels of audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 Are you finding these w/o too much effort? I know I used to see Edison 78s in the bins reasonably often, but never anybody like Fletcher Henderson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is on the 2 cd Storyville Cotton Club set. BTW Volume 1 of the Masters of Jazz Ellington series has a piano roll of Jig Walk they incorrectly attribute to him.
