JETman Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 There was some extraneous Dexter material released on Blue Note in the States a few years ago as "The Squirrel". Could this cd be an extension of that live material? Quote
J.A.W. Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Mystery solved; the Dexter Gordon CD does indeed contain Dial recordings. I found this description in Japanese on the CD Japan site: ザ・チェイス/デクスター・ゴードン・オン・ダイアル/ デクスター・ゴードン (The Chase / Dexter Gordon on Dial / Dexter Gordon) [ジャズ名盤 ベスト&モア 999シリーズ 第5弾] テナーの巨人デクスター・ゴードンの初期時代を集大成したダイアル・セッション。歴史的に名高いワーデル・グレイとの「ザ・チェイス」の初録音、テディ・エドワーズとの「ザ・デュアル」セッションなど聴き応えのあるテナー・バトルが楽しめる。 The Google translation was too weird to post here, but the description does mention Dexter Gordon's first recording on Dial; it also mentions Wardell Gray and Teddy Edwards.

felser Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 Some interesting items! I highly recommend TOCJ 50244 Blakey,Art(ds)/Gypsy Folk Tales 999, which was to me the very best of the latter Jazz Messenger albums, Bobby Watson's (and Valeri Ponomarev's) first with the group, along Walter Davis, Davy Schnitter, and Dennis Irwin . A 1977 Roulette release which has been very difficult to find on CD up until now. Feature's Watson's spectacular "Time Will Tell" and Davis's wonderful "Jodi". At 59 minutes, this was a very long LP, bursting with creativity and joy. Also interesting (and very surprising) to see the CD release of two of the three albums by The Fourth Way, a late 60's-early 70's West Coast proto-fusion group with violinist Michael White, Keyboardist Mike Nock, bassist Ron McClure, and drummer Eddie Marshall. Not worth Japanese import prices to me, but a good listen nonetheless. Quote
Late Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Roy Haynes' People is seeing its first compact disc issue? An interesting batch for sure. My one hesitation is that Japanese issues these days (at least the last 999¥ TOCJ batch, and at least on my system) seem overly compressed and loud. But never mind that. Gems indeed!

"The Chase" was actually included on a Various Artists 10" (211) called Mr Saxophone Edited November 7, 2011 by romualdo Quote

At 59 minutes, this was a very long LP, bursting with creativity and joy. Totally agree. Whilst not in the top flight of Jazz Messengers groups or recordings, this one came out in the middle of a very fallow period for modern jazz in general and hard bop in particular. It initiated more than a little tapping of feet 'back in the day'. The UK LP issue came out on Pye and wasn't the greatest, sonically (a bit lacking in depth and with Dennis Irwin's bass on the boomy side). Hope that the CD sound does it justice !

king ubu Posted November 23, 2011 Report Posted November 23, 2011 TOCJ 50152 Adderley,Cannonball(as)/Live ! 999 [...] TOCJ 50156 Adderley,Cannonball(as)/Live ! 999 While it is great that this album finally is coming out on CD, I'm not sure that I need it twice! TOCJ 50152's title indicates of course that the session was not recorded in a studio, while the little-known TOCJ 50156 is actually an imperative to the infirm. And what album is that anyway? Or what albums, if there are indeed two? It was the first album he recorded for Capitol (but not the first released). It is a fine live album with his sextet with Charles Lloyd and Joe Zawinul. The style is still similar to the Riversides that preceded it. It was recorded over three nights in July-August 1964 at Shelly's Manne-Hole, so one could hope that more exists in the Capitol vaults than the five tracks that were on the LP.

As for additional music: would be cool... but a Japanese reissue won't include any, will it? Japanese reissues have occasionally included extra material - like the George Shearing that was discussed recently - but mostly not. In that case one can hope that TOCJ 50156 is a Volume 2 with unreleased material... any news there? just nosing around on dustygroove.com and can find only one listing there: http://www.dustygroove.com/item.php?id=npktf49xt3&ref=browse.php&refQ=incl_oos%3D1%26amp%3Bincl_cs%3D1%26amp%3Bkwfilter%3Dcannonball%2Badderley%2Blive Quote
Daniel A Posted November 23, 2011 Report Posted November 23, 2011 It seems to be a mislisting. TOCJ-50156 is a reissue of a June Christy/Stan Kenton duet album. Quote

David Ayers Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Re. these December TOCJs - as we are saying there is quite a lot of material seemingly new to CD. Has anyone worked it out systematically what is new and worth bothering about. These are available now and very soon they will be gone so it is time to set priorities! Quote
