WD45 Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Is this the first time that Wes Montgomery's "Incredible Jazz Guitar" has been reissued? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 I might go for the Miles and Tyner (don't have that one on cd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejp626 Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 It is pretty uninspired, though I am not sure I have the Tyner, so I might get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 It is pretty uninspired, though I am not sure I have the Tyner, so I might get that. It's the closest thing to a classic CTI album Tyner ever made. Title track is pretty great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the re-issues, as everything has been on CD once and generally several times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 There are 2 bonus tracks on Freedom Suite: Till There Was You (Take 1) That alternate take was on the OJC reissue. There Will Never Be Another You This is a bass/drums duet recorded when OP and Max where waiting for Sonny to arrive - it was added to Roach's "Deeds Not Words" OJC reissue. Duh - I made my own burn of the complete session ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Keepnews Collection - June 3rd ==================== Nat Adderley - Work Song Coleman Hawkins - The Hawk Flies High The Nat Adderley was on SACD - now which disc has better sound? The Hawk is available on a great sounding Mobile Fidelity SACD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duh - I made my own burn of the complete session ... So they put the same bonus track on 2 different Keepnews Collection remasters - Freedom Suite & Deeds, Not Words. Brilliant!

Till There Was You (Take 1) was not on my OJC version.... OJC Version ======== 1. The Freedom Suite 2. Someday I'll Find You 3. Till There Was You (take 4) 4. Till There Was You (take 3) 5. Shadow Waltz Keepnews Version ============ 1. Freedom Suite, The 2. Someday I'll Find You 3. Will You Still Be Mine? 4. Till There Was You (Take 4) 5. Shadow Waltz 6. Till There Was You (Take 1) 7.

Claude Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Keepnews Collection - June 3rd ==================== Nat Adderley - Work Song Coleman Hawkins - The Hawk Flies High The Nat Adderley was on SACD - now which disc has better sound? The Hawk is available on a great sounding Mobile Fidelity SACD. The Nat Adderley SACD sounds rather awful. I recently got the japanese K2 remaster, which is slightly better. But either the recording wasn't very good or all the reissues used damaged master tapes, because none of them sounds fully satisfactory, like most other Riverside sessions from that time.

So Keepnews is still mining in the vaults, even though Iron Mountain keeps them ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgraham333 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 I think I will hold out for a reissue of Freedom Suite that contains the elusive take 2... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the re-issues, as everything has been on CD once and generally several times. Totally agree with you. And "classic CTI album" is damning with faint praise when it comes to 70's Tyner, which was my meaning. Except for the title track, the Tyner underachieves (and is uninspired) considering what he was capable of in that period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 The Nat Adderley SACD sounds rather awful. I recently got the japanese K2 remaster, which is slightly better. But either the recording wasn't very good or all the reissues used damaged master tapes, because none of them sounds fully satisfactory, like most other Riverside sessions from that time. Really? I've not heard the SACD layer, but the Redbook layer of the SACD sure sounds nice to these ears. YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I thought the original lp sound sucked and have never listened again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 That whole list is just one big ho-freakin-hum for me. That said, I might get Incredible Jazz Guitar simply because I don't have it in any other form and heard "D-Natural Blues" on the radio tonight. Might also get Freedom Suite for the same reason, but really: if I'd wanted them by now, I would've gotten the OJC's, so why bother? I guess those won't be in print any longer, so...

Both are more than worth "getting sometime" so get some version of each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom Suite is also available on the box set: The Freelance Years, Complete Riverside and Contemporary Recordings. 5 CDs for 30 dollars from Newbury. I have the set, good remastering too (though the programming is a little odd). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the closest thing to a classic CTI album Tyner ever made. Title track is pretty great. That's probably the best description of this album, for better and worse. If you're a CTI fan and wondered what a McCoy Tyner CTI album might sound like, this album answers that question. I have the record, though, and I can answer for you: boring.
