Michael Fitzgerald Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) What is the first track on side one of the Evans/Bennett Fantasy LP (F-9489). All sources I have checked say it's Young And Foolish. Can someone with original LP confirm? But if so, why does the Fantasy boxed set trade places with this tune and My Foolish Heart? Everything else matches the LP sequence. Odd. Maybe even Foolish. Mike Edited September 2, 2005 by Michael Fitzgerald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 I got it, Mike. It is "Young & Foolish". Can't answer your second question, though - sor-ry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Fitzgerald Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Further investigation into this Fantasy boxed set shows that there are things missing, issued on OJC CDs - three alternative takes from the Crosscurrents set to start with. Now, I have a question about the LP "From The 70's" - which was an odds & ends set with stuff that got used as bonus tracks on CDs. Could someone supply tracklist and dates? The CD issue of "From the 70's" - does it have different stuff? I see items listed that appear to be alternative takes from other sessions - and THIS stuff doesn't seem to be included in the "Complete" boxed set either! If someone can assist in straightening this out, I'd appreciate it. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Fitzgerald Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 OK, that's the CD version - great! Well, not great too, because it proves that #1-5 are yet more Fantasy items NOT in the Fantasy "Complete" set. Are those comments by you or from the issue? Because it's odd to say that anything is "from the sessions for Eloquence" since Eloquence was another leftovers album issued after Evans's death. I understand the rationale because the other take of Gone With The Wind did come out on Eloquence. But really, #1 is from the sessions for Intuition. No matter. Could I get the LP version now from someone? Because I'm pretty sure it's quite different, with the two versions of "Nobody Else But Me".

rostasi Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 There's a GEMM seller who lists the LP and it states that there are two versions of "Nobody Else But Me." Evans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Fitzgerald Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 OK - *almost* there. I just need to know *which* Nobody Else is which. Is the trio first or the quintet? BTW, that Evans page is a bit out of date - it catches the added Crosscurrents material, but apparently the From The 70's CD came out after the page (dated 1998) because it's unaware of that CD. Getting close - thanks! Mike P.S. - what's the opposite of a "hardcover album" - a paperback album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rostasi Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) Mike, I found this: (the highlighting is mine) I'm guessing that the quintet is the same as Quintessence from May 27-30 1976? and the trio is on "I Will Say Goodbye"?

Michael Fitzgerald Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Unfortunately, that looks to me to be a fake track sequence - it's chronological. I am inclined to believe the ebay one - doubtful that Fantasy would put the same tune back to back. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was meant to show his work chronologically, but it seems to have some detail that couldn't (yet) be found elsewhere.

marcello Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 P.S. - what's the opposite of a "hardcover album" - a paperback album? ← The Ebay seller is from South America. I'm guessing that some LPs that they see are like the old Fontana and BYG labels that were made of a thiner material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
