HutchFan Posted March 12, 2023 Report Share Posted March 12, 2023 In a big band frame of mind this afternoon. Now playing: Earlier: I've been really digging this album lately. It's fun to hear Rich drive / flog the orchestra from the drum chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fun to hear Rich drive / flog the orchestra from the drum chair. It truly is. I still maintain that people who haven't heard/didn't get to hear a real live REAL Big Band have no idea of how much physical impact the sheer sound of it would make. It could pin you on your ass and not let you back up. This was one of the first 25-50 jazz records I bought...well not really bought, got it as an introductory offer from Record Club of America (the others were Transition, Time/Peace, The Best of Cream, Blind Faith, and maybe Burnt Weenie Sandwich?) As such, and this is a very trivial concern, the logo on that reissue "pisses me off" That's an early PJ logo. The OG cover very much reflected the corporate transitions that were going on (and were not yet finished: "Pacific Jazz Series"!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tapscott Posted March 12, 2023 Report Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) Disc 1. I'd forgotten how well Miles plays on these early tracks. Really steals the show on these tracks IMHO. Walter Bishop Jr. sounds really good, too. Edited March 12, 2023 by John Tapscott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's a bit of revisionist history on the part of Universal and/or producer Michael Cuscuna, eh? Liberty was in an acquisitive mood back then: Blue Note and Solid State and Pacific Jazz. I guess they were flush with cash. NP: Marlene VerPlanck Loves Johnny Mercer (Audiophile, 1978) Edited March 12, 2023 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a bit of a fluid time for all the labels in that family - and the label's labels! I mean, was this one World Pacific Jazz or Pacific Jazz? And whatever happened to plain old World Pacific?

They say in the liner notes that the discographically known unissued material was nowhere to be found and is considered lost.
