      Sonny Stitt Organ Dates: 1961-1971

      By david weiss · Posted

      I heard this session.  The first time I worked for Blue Note was to co-produce the Lee Morgan Live at the Lighthouse 3 CD set. Michael and Bob Belden spent around 2 weeks at Capitol studios going through multiple tapes including the Gordon/Stitt session. The first track was salvageable and each subsequent track got worse and worse as they kept drinking and getting more and more drunk. I think they gave up after 3 or 4 tunes. I never heard anything like it. I guess one of the folks who does work up there might think it's good but since we are back in the LP era, where would they release it? I also noticed that the Tyrone Washington album is getting the Tone Poet treatment. I guess if it was the CD era, part of the Trainwreck session might see the light of day.....

      Christoph Spendel 1955-2025

      By mikeweil · Posted

      I just learned that pianist Christoph Spendel has passed on November 7, 2025 at age 70.  He was one of Germany's best, and had been teaching at the Frankfurt musoc University.

      2026 Tone Poet schedule

      By JSngry · Posted

      Since it's LPs, it's Lion's work, not Cuscuna's.

      About Yesterday’s and Today’s Ezz-Thetics

      Agreed. It seems like if any label would release the complete 1965 Coltrane Half Note recordings, it would be Hat. (There is that bootleg soundboard recording out there, but still. Be nice to have "Creation" out there for a wider audience.) Some Hat wishes: • Jimmy Giuffre 3: Tübingen, 1961 • Steve Lacy — any unreleased Hat titles • Sonny Simmons: It Is Revealed • Ric Colbeck: The Sun Is Coming Up I think the Ayler is well is fairly dried up. But maybe not Don Ayler? What I don't get is why Hat is reissuing Blue Note and Prestige stuff when they could be so much more creative with their choices. The Atavistic Unheard Music Series was a model in this regard.
