Rooster_Ties Posted October 18, 2018 Report Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Just discovered this via YouTube in the last 48 hours. What a date! Not really what I was expecting. Love the wordless female vocals -- well "love" is a little strong -- but I like where their inclusion takes the date to a whole 'nother sort of place (at times). Wish this was on CD (discogs doesn't seem to think it's ever been reissued). And Carter Jefferson really goes for broke. I mean, I knew he could play (from all those dates I have him on with Woody Shaw, primarily, and on a few other things). I think(?) the whole thing is up on YouTube, but not in a playlist (nor from the same user/uploader either). I'll try and post the whole thing here in this thread. Meanwhile, a couple discographical sources... https://www.discogs.com/Albert-Dailey-Renaissance/release/3107183 and... https://jazzdiscography.com/Leaders/DaileyAlbert-ldr.php Date: November 1 & 2, 1977 Location: New York City Label: Catalyst Albert Dailey (ldr), Carter Jefferson (ss, ts), Albert Dailey (p), Cecil McBee (b), Adam Nussbaum, Charli Persip (d), Cheryl Alexander (vocals) a. Black Raspberry (Albert Dailey) b. The Dues We Have To Pay (Albert Dailey) c. I Love You (Cole Porter) d. Mimosa (Dennis Irwin) e. Mr. Pogo (Albert Dailey) f. Gee Monetti (Albert Dailey) g. Autumn Rain (Albert Dailey) All titles on: Catalyst LP 12": CAT 7627 — Renaissance Adam Nussbaum (d) on b, e; Charli Persip (d) on a, c-d, f-g. And here's the first couple tracks...

HutchFan Posted October 18, 2018 Report Posted October 18, 2018 Thanks for the heads-up on this, Rooster! I haven't had a chance to listen yet -- but that line-up definitely looks enticing. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted October 18, 2018 Report Posted October 18, 2018 unfamiliar with it but looks like my kinda bag as well, thanks! Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Posted May 12, 2021 There seems to have been a recent (2019) vinyl (alas) reissue of this album — with a hype-sticker that makes me think it might actually be a legit reissue. Might have even been some sort of Record Store Day sort of thing (not sure). Anyway, I sure wish this would get issued on CD. I’m not beyond buying things on vinyl, but usually only as a last resort (or only if I happen to see a really cheap LP copy, like for $10 or less). Quote
