Vol. 2 and The Last From Lennie's to complete the set. When I was working on the liner notes for the latter CD, the label sent me the remaining unissued music from the date, which will never see the light of day. It included several rehearsals of "King David" and other tracks from the gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful arranging, notable solos by Jack Sheldon and, of course, the incomparable Mel Lewis. Found it on Spotify. Very much enjoyed it.

It included several rehearsals of "King David" and other tracks from the gig. It's one of my favourite live jazz albums ever, along with Vol. 2. I don't know Last From Lennie's but will take your advice on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddlemay Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 The way this track builds is, to me, the apotheosis of Billy Byers and the Basie band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted August 3, 2021 Report Share Posted August 3, 2021 (edited) John Lindberg Trio - Give and Take (Black Saint, 1982) I hadn't realised that, not only is there another George Lewis, but there is another John Lindberg Trio. In the latter case, it is a Swedish rockabilly combo that sometimes goes by "JLT". Edited August 3, 2021 by Rabshakeh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like the idea of the two trios being the same, George Lewis plays rockabilly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
