JSngry Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 Nothing earth-shattering (to put it mildly), by I know we have some Joe Henderson completionists here for whom this of interest might be, perhaps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9zAqrm9SgU Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 Nice. More Joe is always welcome!! Quote
Big Wheel Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) Some deservedly* obscure Joe Henderson is on the first track (Bessie's Blues) of this one from one of his students: http://fervidjazz.com/glen-simpson-live-cd.html . Found on Spotify. (*I say deservedly because while Joe of course plays great, this is very much a "semipro" record at best, and the drummer is particularly cringe-inducing.)

That one is not on Jeffrey Lovell's Joe Henderson Discography. Good find! Quote
Big Wheel Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 I actually emailed Jeff a while back when I discovered it but got no response. Guess he hasn't updated the JH discography in a while. Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) Joe's on this entire album, Babatunde Olatunji's "Soul Makossa". Not a ton of solo-space for Joe, per se (lots of really short solos, but no lengthy ones as best I recall), but his playing is out front in the mix on practically every track. Really a fun date! Here's a couple tracks... Edited June 18, 2012 by Rooster_Ties Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted June 27, 2012 Report Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) Anybody know this little appoximately 4-minute obscurity?? (It appears that Joe and Woody are only on this one track, source.) Date: September 1970? Location: Los Angeles, CA Label: Los Angeles John Wood (ldr), Joe Henderson (ts), Woody Shaw (t), John Wood (ep), Mark Drury (b), Lenny White (d), Anthony Waters (cga) a. Guillermo's Ants Los Angeles LP 12": LAPR-1008 - Nearer (1970) Dates uncertain. From the personnel listed, it can be assumed that this session took place sometime in the fall of 1970, when Henderson formed his own group with Woody Shaw and Lenny White.

six string Posted June 27, 2012 Report Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) Joe recorded a four songs with a local pianist, Joe Gilman on his album Treasure Chest on Timeless. The rhythm section consists of Bob Hurst and Jeff "Tain" Watts. It's very good too though I may be biased as I've known Joe Gilman for almost thirty years and I've heard him play many, many times. He has been playing with Bobby Hutcherson for the last few years in between teaching and heading a music program at a local college. Edited June 27, 2012 by six string Quote
DMP Posted June 28, 2012 Report Posted June 28, 2012 And, speaking of obscure Henderson, he appears on a 1963 Antonio Diaz date (on Audio Fidelity, the home of Walt Dickerson and the Dukes of Dixieland) - anyone familiar with this? Can't remember ever seeing this one. Quote

Here 'tis from Discogs... https://www.discogs.com/Antonio-Chocolate-Diaz-Mena-Eso-Es-Latin-Jazz-Man/release/4240210 "Joseph Henderson" only SOLOS on one short track, but supposedly he plays on the entire album in the ensemble.

mikeweil Posted January 8, 2019 Report Posted January 8, 2019 I have all the Antonio Diaz Mena recordings, but haven't listened to them in quite a while. They are among the best Latin jazz recordings of their time, with or without Henderson solos. Quote
