Shame it’s only MP3 but I guess beggars can’t be choosers !

I wonder what the situation is on that rumoured (via Dusty) reissue by Rearward of ‘Out of the Folk Bag’? It could do with a sonic clean-up reissue.

The very short playing time could be strong argument to dig into the Campi vaults - which are said being considerable - to unearth some unissued recordings .... although Rearward dind`t release (at least to my knowledge) any unreleased material til now ....

'Our Kinda Strauss' had previously unreleased tracks, I believe.

You`re right - I obviously forgot about the early Rearward releases. 

On Rearward "Griff`n`Bags" three beautiful (IMO) previously unreleased Clarke Boland Trio tracks  saw the light of day ....:

Francy Boland Trio
Lindström Studios, Cologne, Germany: February 19, 1967
Francy Boland (p); Jimmy Woode, Jr. (b); Kenny Clarke (d).

a. Gamal Sady'n'Em (Jimmy Woode) - 4:59
b. Lonely Girl (Neal Hefti) - 2:48
c. Gyson's Bag (Jimmy Woode) - 4:58

Issues: a-c on Rearward (It) RW103 CD [CD] titled GRIFF 'N' BAGS (as by Johnny Griffin).
Producer: Gigi Campi
Engineer: Wolfgang Hirschmann

Mildly off-topic, but Francy Boland's rare mood music masterpiece Flirt and Dream has been reissued as an mp3 album.  No idea if it is from the masters or ripped from an LP.  

This sounds like an outtake from Les Baxter's Que Mango! 

 

 

I noticed that on Spotify over the weekend and it sounded pretty good to my ears and not an LP lift. My guess is that Edsel have included it in their MPS digitisation programme along with many other goodies. Noticed also that the Rearward reissues were also on Spotify too. Great stuff !

All sorts of interesting MPS stuff has appeared on Spotify. Mark Murphy ‘Midnight Mood’ with a Clarke/Boland Octet is also on there.

Clarke Boland Big Band

Out Of The Folk Bag (with bonus CD)

Release again reported

About October 1, 2018

Could you pls share the source ? And released by Rearward ?

That previous ‘Out Of The Folk Bag’ reissue on vinyl put out in Germany is absolutely dreadful. Sounds to me like a very amateur copy off of vinyl, with severe filtering and sonic drop-offs. Must be a boot. Lets hope that Rearward (a) deliver in October and (b) issue this one to their usual high quality and off of the master tapes.

Is some of the Folk Bag LP also on the Supraphon CBBB LP? I have that and it sounds wonderful at 1/30 of the price.

The Supraphon (Cz) 1 15 0477, SUA 15988, SUA ST 55988 “Francy Boland & Kenny Clarke Famous Orchestra” LPs contain only 6 titles from the original "Out Of The Folk Bag" album. 3 titles are missing: Nice Bunch, Return & Dear Old Stockholm.

Note that “The Turk” issued by Supraphon has an additional trumpet solo at the start of the tune.

This album has only a minor interest. It contains a medium stereo. KPM are all mono. Maybe pressing ..

This is a reissue of Jazz Convention Vol.1 (KPM) except for one track (Griff’s Groove) being not included.

Liner notes indicate that it was recorded August 1967 in Köln, Germany.

KPM (UK) INT 02 indicates that October 20, 1967 is the recording date.

The Muse MR 5056 reissue (mono of the above) indicates recording as Prague, Czech 1967.

I found recently the origin of the additional trumpet solo at the start of the tune "The Turk" on Supraphon (Cz) 1 15 0477, SUA 15988, SUA ST 55988 “Francy Boland & Kenny Clarke Famous Orchestra”.

This trumpet solo is from a stereo version (3:14) of the above tune still unissued, but in circulation among collectors. Maybe on the forhcoming "Out Of The Folk Bag" reissue... about october 1, 2018...

Just received notification from Trunk Records that their Clarke/Boland LP compilation of the 3 KPMs is now out (single LP - the listing confirms that about half of it is Gary McFarland titles).

Not sure if the release is mono or stereo.

LP release only, limited to 500 copies (and Mr Trunk has confirmed that he is unlikely to do any further pressings). Order is in !
