mikeweil Posted March 11, 2004 Report Posted March 11, 2004 1) At the end of the Afro-Bossa album, on disc two, there are two unreleased tracks titled "Resume # 1 and # 2, which feature thematic snippets from all individual titles. After reading Mark Tucker's description, I think the order of the two tracks must be reversed. 2) I have the Spiegel edition, which has a very good German translation of Mark Tucker's commentary by Markus Mellentin, but when describing Take the A Train from the Jazz Violin Session he calls the bassist Andy (sic!) Shepard, when it should be Ernie. Is the same error in the English original? Quote
king ubu Posted March 12, 2004 Report Posted March 12, 2004 Mike, if no one's answering you until tonight, I can check my booklet then. Didn't have it at hand last night. ubu Quote
king ubu Posted March 12, 2004 Report Posted March 12, 2004 re 2): the phrase in question reads "Bassist Shepard does a creditable Slam Stewart impression..." So the rather strange mistake might be a slip that occured during translation. Not yet listened/read the piano numbers. ubu Quote
mikeweil Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Posted March 13, 2004 If he mistook Ernie for Andy, the translator is a jazz fan, at least ... Quote
