Hi!

Just wanted to mention that I'm selling a pretty rare CD on eBay that someone here might be interested in. The auction ends Sunday.

It's THE LEGENDARY OSCAR DENNARD, a rare session from 1958. Here's the details:

This session features Oscar Dennard (piano), Idrees Sulieman (trumpet), Jamil Nasser (bass) and Buster Smith (drums) and was recorded in July 1958.

This Japan CD features 7 tracks and runs about an hour.

Tracks:

1 - All Of You (6:51)

2 - Visa (11:21)

3 - Pinky (4:26)

4 - Stella By Starlight (12:24)

5 - Confirmation (9:55)

6 - Tour De Force (4:26)

7 - Tangier Blues (12:05)

The CD and booklet are both in like-new condition! Pristine!

Thanks for looking!

It's a beautiful quartet recording.

I'm sure there are others here that know the history of the session better than I do. It's on the "Somethin' Else Classics" label and was recorded at the Radio Tangier International Studio. Michael Cuscuna is listed on the back cover as a "series director."

The booklet (in English although there is also a Japanese insert) gives a rundown of how the session happened but no history of where else this session may have appeared (if anywhere).

I think this might be one of those odd, little recording sessions that occurred and then slipped through the cracks.

Interesting...would you happen to know if this is previously unreleased material and/or what the original label was?

Oscar Dennard and Idrees Sulieman...wow!
