Max Roach/Kenny Dorham Quintet - New Sounds

[Hardbopjazz]

I was reading the Offering and Looking For... and saw someone searching for a number of BN titles. Max Roach/Kenny Dorham Quintet - New Sounds (12/22/47, 4/30/49, 5/15/49), has this ever been issued on CD? I realized might be one I would lie to get a hold ofif I could find it.

Any insight would be nice.

I think it has, under the title "New Sounds" but the names are Art Blakey and James Moody. It isn't terribly hard to find. The Dorham sides are w/an octet, though. Not a quintet.

5/14/49 was not a Blue Note session. It was leased by BN from Vogue. Four of the five tunes have been issued on Vogue CD I have - 74321409412 from 1997, paired with Dizzy Gillespie.

12/22/47 is the Art Blakey BN date which has been on BN CD, paired with James Moody.

4/30/49 is another Vogue session. Only one of the six tunes from that session was issued by BN.

And that is one to look for, holding as it does the Salle Pleyel concert by Gillespie's big band that is as incredible musically as it is poorly recorded.

The Roach/Dorham material is indeed by a quintet - with James Moody, Al Haig, Tommy Potter.

Maybe you are confusing this with the Moody material (10/19/48, 10/25/48) that was paired with the Blakey (12/22/47) on BN CD.

Also, forgot to mention that 4/30/49 is by James Moody.

A Kenny Dorham CD from the infamous Definitive catalogue (DRCD 11156) has the full December 22, 1947 BN session led by Art Blakey (except for one alternate take of 'Bop Alley') and the full May 15, 1949 Vogue quintet session led by Max Roach.

That Moody date is on the Jazz in Paris release simply called "Bebop", if I remember right (don't have it at hand to check the date of recording, though).

nope, the Bebop date is with Nat Peck, Don Byas & Bernard Peiffer; recorded 7 July 1949 for Blue Star in Paris.

I stand corrected! Sorry for mixing things up!
