Warne Marsh - Ne Plus Ultra to be reissued!

[J.A.W.]

Hat Hut's Werner Uehlinger just told me he hopes to reissue Warne Marsh's Ne Plus Ultra on his hatOLOGY label early 2005. It's already been remastered and he's waiting for new liner notes.

I just realized I probably should have posted this on April 2... It's no joke!

[shrugs]

Another important piece of the puzzle!!!

Great record, man. I think I dropped $20 for a strong VG+ LP about five years ago and it was worth every penny.

I've been reading about this for a while now! This is good news.

I, like all other Warne Marsh fans, welcome the opportunity to get a remastered version of this great album, although the sound on the original issue was pretty high quality to begin with. (Most of the Revelation LPs had very clear presence). What does puzzle me though is why this album is considered to be "just" a Warne Marsh album? There is another saxophonist on this album .. altoist Gary Foster .. who is not exactly chopped liver, and his contribution to the overall session is quite the equal of Marsh. (The rest of the group is Dave Parlato on bass, and John Tirabasso on drums. Recorded 25th October, 1969).

.. I just thought that Gary should get his time in the Organissimo sun ... He currently has a fine new album recently released: Bill Cunliffe and Gary Foster, "IT'S ABOUT LOVE: The Music of Reed Kotler" (Torii Records - no catalog number).

There are, of course, other fine albums from the now defunct Revelation catalog which deserve reissuing as well.

Accoring to Werner Uehlinger Hat Hut won't be able to (re)issue any other Revelation albums.

Hmm... After I had placed my bid (and was outbid) I found out about Werner Uehlinger's reissue plans and decided not to bid anymore. Couldn't really afford it anyway...

Dave Parlato (who also played on some Zappa dates, and with Don Ellis) now lives here in New Mexico. He's a sweet cat and a great bass player. I always enjoy the chances I get to play with him! Glad to hear that this re-issue is coming!
