It's a test pressing of the ESP disc not the stuff that was slated for Blue Note. The condition wasn't that great on this one and I have a copy of the album anyways.

Seems they were made in March 3 & 10, 1965. The rumor has it that a set is now in a posession of a Japanese collector, and according to him, the actual contents are: BN4210: Children's Books, Story Teller, Play It Straight, I Don't Love You, Architecture BN4211: The Ark, Sadness, Doughnut, Taurus, Dedictaion to Poets and Writers And Ornette didn't join Nappy Allen's band.

Holy Ghost Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) I'd like to repost that it's not that I don't like Ornette's records less in the BN period (Love Call, NY is Now, are my favorites) and Cherry's more; what I meant to say is that Don's records were more interesting to me. Maybe Cherry's BN's I favor, instead of Ornette's outfit at the time (meaning I miss Cherry with Ornette) a lot.

Face of the Bass Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 I picked this up at my local record store this week. I think it is one of the most beautiful box sets I have ever seen. The photos and everything are absolutely incredible. Of course, I had almost all of this on CD, but I haven't listened to the CDs in years and I didn't have any of it on vinyl. I am enjoying the set a great deal, mainly because other than the Golden Circle albums I have never paid too much attention to Ornette's Blue Note period. For me, there haven't been many good jazz box sets in the last couple years. I haven't liked/been interested in any of the Mosaic releases. The best ones that have come out have been the Blue Note Lee Morgan box and this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Deco from years later with James Clay, is a successful more mainstream Cherry album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Ghost Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Talking about dreaming, Ornette's outfit were all at BN basically at the same time, time-wise. Cherry sided with Blackmore and Ornette with Haden. They could've possibly started a new "Atlantic" franchise at BN. Was it that they were not all getting along at the time or Ornette wanted to do something different (although in my opinion, he just didn't record with a brass horn but with tenor instead). The live Impulse! and Science Fiction say otherwise later.... On 1/21/2022 at 2:53 PM, Guy Berger said: I generally enjoy the Cherry BNs more than the Ornette BNs too. Glad to have both.

colinmce Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 Lots of discussion about the Blue Note version of Town Hall, and the status of the acetates. Both LPs have been posted in full on YouTube. This is record 1, side A. The other 3 sides can be found on the account page: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
