The Complete Mercury of Roland Kirk


Mr Mingus

Recommended Posts

Nobody knows! The session was for a Mercury single (!) but the rest of the session (including a seventh track, an early take of 'Hip Chops') went unissued until the box set. Details, as far as they're known, are:

Roland Kirk Quartet: Kirk (ts, manzello, stritch, fl, siren, vcl); others unidentified.

May 26, 1964

31609-7 Japan

31609-9 Japan

31609-10 Japan

31610-7 Berkshire Blues Mercury 72325

31611-9 Dirty Money Blues -

31611-11 Dirty Money Blues

31612-1 Ad Lib (Hip Chops)

Dan Morgenstern's notes speculate that the personnel is Kirk's working band of the time, which were:

Horace Parlan (p); Michael Fleming (b); Steve Ellington (d);

Hope this helps!
