Peter Donolo Posted April 17, 2020 Report Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Octave Records has just released the tenth in their twelve-CD reissue campaign of Erroll Garner's later albums - 1972's "Gemini". As a bonus track, they've added a "previously unreleased" recording of "Misty". Does anyone know whether this is the version that Garner recorded for Clint Eastwood's film "Play Misty for Me", and which, I believe, has been previously unavailable commercially?

jazzbo Posted April 17, 2020 Report Posted April 17, 2020 My copy will arrive late Tuesday. Would be nice if that were the version, don't know. . . Quote
jazzbo Posted April 21, 2020 Report Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) I agree that it's a damned good record. @Peter DonoloMy copy of the new cd arrived. There is no indication that I can find that this "Misty" is the track that was recorded for the movie. . . all that is mentioned about this track is that it was recorded June 22, 1971, one of the sessions that produced material for the album. It appears to be a trio only selection (percussionist on the album does not appear) and its duration is 2:47. Hope that helps identify it or eliminate it. Edited April 21, 2020 by jazzbo Quote
