Listening to the Moncur select and finding I have two copies of disc one. I remember there being some cock up but can anyone remind me why the disc had to be reissued? I have searched and can’t see an explanation.
Great set but a shame only part of ‘Bout Soul included.
Anyone else notice the blip on El Barrio about 4.35 in, at the end of Joe’s solo. Like someone has bolted together two different takes. Though there are no alternate takes here. It’s there on the RVG CD issue too though more noticeable on the Mosaic. Wonder if it’s on the original LP.
I am currently listening to ‘the Straight Horn of Steve Lacy’. Roy Haynes’ drumming is phenomenal and comes through loud and clear, given the brilliant recording. Credit to engineer Bob D’Orleans.
I have recently returned to the Dexter 6CD set and it sounds great to me. None of the hot RVG CD remastering. Would work better with Dexter’s ramblings on a separate CD. Also I find it maddening working out which session equates to which LP. I am inclined to get out a biro and deface the box!
