Atlantic 10-inch LPs?

[mikeweil]

Were there any?

If so, is there an online list? Can't remember any reference to one.

Atlantic did have 10"ers. I know of a Bechet, a Wilbur DeParis and a Jimmy Yancy. I think the highest number ive seen is 143, so there must have been at least 43 of them.

As to where to find a list, i dont have a clue.

The MLW 10" material is also part of the wonderful Chronogical Classics 1346, Mary Lou Williams 1951-1953.

Thank goodness for these MLW Classics.

Thanks, Mike, for that link - I can't tell why I didn't bookmark that site

I wonder whatever was on those Gillespies ...

[Michael Fitzgerald]

I suspect it was the stuff on Atlantic 1257 - the Paris concerts of March 25 & April 6, 1952 - originally Blue Star? And the studio session of February 29, 1952. The Paris stuff has Byas, the studio has Bill Graham, Milt Jackson, Joe Carroll.

So some of these were licensed - like Blue Note did with Garner, Sadi etc. - how many of them? Seems all of the early 1950's jazz labels licensed stuff from Europe.

I have the impression that formats like 10" LPs and EPs are somewhat neglected in discographies, at least it seems information is harder to get - smaller pressings, etc.

Mike,

That Dizzy Home And Abroad is an interesting case. The four tracks recorded in NY are listed as only Atlantic. The eight Paris tracks seem to be a bit more muddy. The Home And Abroad lp 1257 is out on Collectables, so Warner Bros still has the tapes. If they leased those tracks, you would think that lease ran out decades ago. Kind of weird.

[mikeweil]

Indeed - Atlantic only! Right in between other sessions for DeeGee, Blue Star, and Vogue, before his association with Norman Granz. Doesn't look like a lease.
