I have a story about that date, told Cuscuna, he repeated it in print and Leo had to issue a retraction for ECM. I will tell you in person.

Oh, my....

Sonny Berman - Beautiful Jewish Music (Onyx). The 1946 jam session by a bunch of Herman-ites is not as great as one might expect, considering the personnel, but it's nice to have more Berman and Serge Chaloff, considering how relatively little they recorded.

Later, after the whole shooting match is over - yeah, not great, overall, but Sonny Berman's solo on "BMT Face" is just gorgeous.

Agreed!

Here is the back cover:

But Kent Carter claims that he's the bassist - see discogs: https://www.discogs.com/de/Mal-Waldron-The-Whirling-Dervish/release/2509314 

Here is the text on the back cover enlarged:

Who is right?

It's an excellent album though admittedly I haven't had it on deck in ages. Will listen and report back, as Carter is very easily identifiable. I assume one could ask Peter Warren as he's alive and well.

Bird's the word. :tup

With all kinds of editions and reissues, the Spotlite was the best one. Spotlite was THE Label for Bird- and Bop-fans. Great ! Brings memories back, all the Dial´s with the alternate tracks and bonus tracks from private recordings, the other rare stuff "Appartment Sessions" "The Band That Never was" "Bird in Paris" "Bird in Sweden", "Early Bird" , and the incredible "Afro Cuban" and above all the Billy Eckstine Bigband with Fats on it, "Together"...... , those guys from Spotlite were the  best !

I have many of those Spotlite releases and still have a great time listening to them.
