Brad Posted January 30, 2022 Report Posted January 30, 2022 Steve Schwartz and Michael Fitzgerald have put together a discography interspersed with quotes. Some of those who helped are members here. https://jazzmf.com/art-blakey-chronology-and-the-jazz-messengers/ Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted January 30, 2022 Report Posted January 30, 2022 Still hoping something of this band somehow surfaces… April? 1969: Woody Shaw-t; Tyrone Washington-ts; George Cables-p; Scotty Holt-b – Wollman Auditorium, Columbia University, NYC (February 24, 1969) [db 3/20/69 p.15] – Loeb Student Center, New York University, NYC (March 3, 1969) [db 3/20/69 p.15] – Fillmore East, NYC (March 9, 1969) [db 3/20/69 pp.14, 52] Black Bottom, Montreal, Canada (April? 1969) [Coda 6/69 p.34] Café La Boheme (early April-early May 1969) [Voice] [this is questionable considering the below activity] Quote
Ken Dryden Posted January 30, 2022 Report Posted January 30, 2022 I have several Art Blakey shows, some which aren't listed on the website. Pardon the unidentified titles, but at the time I got these CDRs, they had limited or no playlists and I didn't always have time to find the titles. Some of them may be updated with the discs downstairs, I will check in the next few days. I may have a copy of the March 18, 1981 recording at the Roundhouse, London. The info that I have is London without a specific date or venue. unknown title unknown title unknown title How Deep is the Ocean In Case You Missed It [aka Fuller Love] unknown title unknown title > The Theme Art Blakey: drums Wynton Marsalis: trumpet Bobby Watson: alto saxophone Billy Pierce: tenor saxophone James Williams: piano Charles Fambrough: bass 7th Avenue South, New York City, December 21, 1981 New York Little Man Miss B.C.
