Listened to that one a while ago when I was on a Stanley Turrentine listening mood (which happens fairly often).

One of his best date!

My copy 'Liberty/UA 1970' looks better than the one chewy linked <_<

It also bears the Rudy Van Gelder stamp on both sides!

(all of the good copies must have gone to Europe).

Glad Chewy started this thread, it gave me the impetus to pull the Mosaic out and listen to this session last night. What a GEM!

Also played Mr. Natural which is another favorite.

I love Thad Jones' playing, so I always wanted to hear this album someday. Seems I will have to go for the Mosaic ...

Look at it this way. You also get Comin' Your Way, Jubilee Shout, A Chip Off The Old Block, Mr. Natural and In Memory Of (the last 2 never on CD outside the Mosaic, afaik).

This is the one that was on the turntable of mine that got stolen back in 1979 before I actually played it.

Ain't that a bitch?

That is a fuckin' bitch.

Of course, of course ... not that I wanted to complain.

It's only that, if it's such a good album, it would have deserved a single reissue.

How did it happen? Never leave your doors open with a rare LP on the turntable ...

It wasn't rare yet back in 79.

Well, actually it was.

And I had my doors locked.

Wasn't a good day, that one wasn't.

Do you still have the album cover/inner sleeve at least? Maybe just replacing the vinyl wouldn't be too expensive.

Actually, I do still have the cover. And a good friend provided me with a burn of the album a few years ago. Very nice indeed, and well worth the wait!

Arichewy, if you find my copy, see if you can find my Mark VI alto too...that got lifted as well.

They lifted your horn too? Not cool.

Most likely, yeah. Pretty much lost everything of real value except my tenor, and that was because I was out sitting in w/Marchel @ the old Recovery Room.
