Dan Gould Posted August 21, 2003 Report Posted August 21, 2003 I fear that I am missing someone who made appearances at the Montmartre, but these are the three I could think of. I'm pretty sure that Dex is going to win, though for late-period Webster, these live sets are pretty good! Quote

Dan Gould Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Posted August 21, 2003 Guess I should have limited it to "Kenny Drew/NHOP/Alex Riel" rhythm sections? Which actually brings up a good subject regarding these recordings-Drew is right there, with the swing of Frog, Long Tall Dexter's exuberance, and the "fastest gun in the west" of Griff. Kenny Drew was the schitt! Quote
brownie Posted August 21, 2003 Report Posted August 21, 2003 Where are Warne Marsh, Bud Powell, Cecil Taylor? They - and a number of others - made beautiful music at the Montmartre. Of the three listed, I have to pick Dexter. Quote
John Tapscott Posted August 21, 2003 Report Posted August 21, 2003 Dexter. I love his recordings there with Jackie McLean. Quote
brownie Posted August 21, 2003 Report Posted August 21, 2003 Dan, our responses crossed. But even with the rhythm section of Drew, NHOP, Riel, I'ld pick Dexter. Quote
Dan Gould Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Posted August 21, 2003 Well, Brownie, I screwed it up anyway. Not having Taylor on my radar is one thing, but forgetting Bud Powell is inexcusable! Maybe I should start a new poll ... Quote
John L Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Cecil Taylor, Jimmy Lyons, Sunny Murray Quote
paul secor Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 (edited) Not to forget the N.Y. Contemporary 5. Of the three listed, I voted for Ben. Edited August 22, 2003 by paul secor Quote
