brownie Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Pumpkin was a small label that released several albums in the '70s. The Hawk/Hines material comes from a March 14, 1965 Hines gig at the VV. Two albums originally came on Limelight 'Grand Reunion, vol. 1' and 'Grand Reunion, vol. 2'. More tunes from the date (without Hawk but with Roy Eldridge) were released on Xanadu (Earl Hines and Roy Eldridge at the Village Vanguard, Xanadu 106) and on the Pumpkin LP.

Stereojack Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Pumpkin was owned and operated by Bob Hilbert, a Florida-based collector. The releases were mostly live material, generally of good quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Did not know it was Bob Hilbert's label. Hilbert is also the author of an excellent biography of Pee Wee Russell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
