ghost of miles Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 1993 Japanese import CD that I was thrilled to find on my first trip to Chicago’s Jazz Record Mart in 1995. I’d read about Brooks in David Rosenthal’s Hard Bop book and had bought True Blue just a few months before the JRM trip, when Blue Note reissued it on CD in its initial wave of Connoisseur titles. Iirc the CD was $28 (in 1995) and I was living on record-store clerk wages, but I happily and without hesitation bought it. Only got to the JRM one more time after that, but listening to this CD reminds me of what it was like to walk into that store for the first time.

I like that kind of stories, where you listen to a CD and it reminds you of some certain events in the past. I also have this CD maybe also from about 1993, but I never know what edition, and anyway would never buy another edition of a certain album I already know, even if it has alternate tracks.... But this one I like, though I must admit I bought it only because of the others, whom I knew, but didn´t know who Tina Brooks was. I think he was even more obscure here in Europe than in his home country. I don´t really know his story but it seems that his recording career was very short, and once I read somewhere that Alfred Lion though he liked Brook´s music, didn´t like him as a person. About memories by listening now: In your case it is walking into that store the first time. In my case : I spinned it in my car in the small hours on the highway, that first tune did fit so well to that hour and that lonesome drivin thru the night....... I had to switch for many many years between Austria and România, let´s say from the time I was working here but had my wife down there, so driving the whole night 1000 km when there was no highway thru Hungary or Romania, that was cool, heard a lotta music in the car then. Often almost the only car in the night, at least in those years. 20 hours ago, jazzbo said: Another quartet recording, from the batch of UHQCD released today. Jackie McLean "Let Freedom Ring" Blue Note Japan 85th Anniversary UHQCD with Walter Davis Jr, Herbie Lewis, Billy Higgins Definitly one of the great great records of the 60´s, from that period I love so much. I had the great occasion to hear Jackie McLean, Herbie Lewis, Billy Higgins with Bobby Hutcherson instead of Walter Davis, but since Bobby Hutcherson is on the twin album "One Step Beyond", it was almost a Jackie McLean Blue Note Quartet, what I heard, one of the best concerts I ever heard.... 9 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Giorgio Gaslini Double – Message I never had heard Giorgio Gaslini but had heard that he was great playing very similar to Monk´s style...

All of those 'Orchestra of the 80s' albums for Albert Marx are worth hearing. Will dig out. The one time I saw Wilson's orchestra on home turf he still had much of this lineup in place. People like Jack Nimitz ('The Admiral') and drummer Mel Lee, plus his son on guitar. Edited September 26 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it, the first batch of Connoisseur releases were the rarest Blue Note LP titles, with Tina Brooks' "True Blue" likely the rarest of them all. I seem to remember an eBay auction back then where someone paid close to $10,000 for a copy. It's not surprising then, that his name was not well known in Europe because it was not really well known in the US until the Mosaic box.
