JSngry Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 Eyes WIDE open! She seems very comfortable being who she is. Nice! Quote
Larry Kart Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 Eyes WIDE open! She seems very comfortable being who she is. Nice! Nice stuff. She's accompanied by Victor Feldman, Stan Levey, and (drum roll) Scott LaFaro. Quote
brownie Posted February 28, 2010 Report Posted February 28, 2010 More from the same video (sans Price, but with Richie Kamuca and Frank Rosolino)... Chart of my Heart Cherry Quote

epistrophy007 Posted March 2, 2010 Author Report Posted March 2, 2010 (edited) Ooh wasn't aware of the other musicians. Thank's! I really hope that some day all the episodes are out on dvd/cd ( as well as those from similar programs like Frankly Jazz. What I like about this program is that they pair (is that correct English?) (lesser((known)) vocalists with unlickely instrumentalists e.g; Dave Brubeck with Betty Roché, The Jazz Messangers with Kitty White, Hampton Hawes with julie London,... Some of these sets were released on cd, but what I can't understand is that they omit the tracks with the vocalists ( like the Carl Perkins set on Fresh Sound, they just leave the two tracks with Anita O'Day!!!) Anyway, here you find the complete episodeguide -> http://www.tv.com/stars-of-jazz/show/21008/episode.html?flag=1&tag=list_header;paginator;All&season=All j.

medjuck Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 IIRC I once heard Mark Cantor say that on the Chet Baker show he played some Bix! (Of course no copy of that show is known to exist.) Quote
epistrophy007 Posted March 11, 2010 Author Report Posted March 11, 2010 One final remark; "You are My Lucky Star" isn't from her album with Johnny Smith...A little bit strange since she's there for promoting the album... Did she recorded it before/anyway? And can someone please give me some information on her debut album? Like who the musician's are,... Thank You! j. Quote
marcello Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 By the way, she ran The Jazz Bakery in L.A. Quote
epistrophy007 Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Posted March 14, 2010 Found the musicians on the debut lp; Joe Newman, Frank Wess, Lou Stein, Tony Mottola, Milt Hinton, Ellis Tolin. According her birthdate (1938) she was only 17 when she recorded this one, so on the youtube clip she's just 18! Hmmm... Two tracks from her second live album from the 60s 'Live and Beautifull' (with the Victor Feldman Trio) can be heard via the following link; http://images.google.be/imgres?imgurl=http://www.hi-fi.gr.jp/jacket/thumb/58000/58076.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.hi-fi.gr.jp/search.html%3Frec_artist_kana%3D%25E3%2583%25AB%25E3%2583%25BC%25E3%2582%25B9%25E3%2583%25BB%25E3%2583%2597%25E3%2583%25A9%25E3%2582%25A4%25E3%2582%25B9&usg=__kz8F3uO-6ION0rtA2A3M2PJJ_Yw=&h=120&w=120&sz=7&hl=nl&start=5&um=1&itbs=1&tbnid=0tZNFw1GlJMHFM:&tbnh=88&tbnw=88&prev=/images%3Fq%3D%2522ruth%2Bprice%2522%2B%2522live%2Band%2Bbeautiful%2522%26um%3D1%26hl%3Dnl%26tbs%3Disch:1 enjoy. j.

JamesAHarrod Posted August 22, 2018 Report Posted August 22, 2018 In this clip from Ruth Price’s appearance on Stars of Jazz Bobby Troup says that the first song Price sings is from her new Roost album. She sings “You Are My Lucky Star” (w. Arthur Freed, m. Nacio Herb Brown). This tune is not listed on the back liner as being on that album. Do any members have the LP or CD reissue and can verify what she sings on the album? The last tune on side one according to the liner is “When You Wish Upon A Star.” Quote

JamesAHarrod Posted August 22, 2018 Report Posted August 22, 2018 Thanks, that clears it up for me. Quote
