mjazzg Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Two of today's arrivals, quite a contrast Various - The RCA Victor Jazz Workshop, The Arrangers [RCA/Bluebird]. I've read posts that are very positive about this over the years on this board so couldn't resist for £5. I'm now positive too and then... Joseph Jarman - As If It Were The Seasons [Delmark]. Simply stunning Edited July 21, 2020 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 I love "My People," ever since I saw the selections the Orchestra performed on the Bell Telephone Hour (Canada) show. I've four cd versions. .. but this mono LP on Contact sounds the very best, just big and bold and present. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Moving on to Dizzy's The New Continent, composed & arranged by Lalo Schifrin: Hooray to Lalo for this lush and deliciously soundtrack-y setting to showcase Diz. Not really important but still fun: I have the original Limelight LP with the pop-up gatefold sleeve.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 This seems like a pretty obscure LP and discogs indicates never had a CD issue? Strange history to the sessions too, there are three tracks with James Clay that were recorded first week of 1980 and four tracks with Harold Land recorded in April 1986 and the LP was issued in 1987. Cedar and Billy are on all tracks, bass is Dumas with Clay and Buster Williams with Land. No other information on the back. So how come only three tracks were recorded with Clay and seven years before release? Was there a plan for a James Clay record and he wasn't having a good day? And did they just record enough Land in order to get the record out? It's all very confusing but I am glad to have some more James Clay to enjoy. Also confusing: Discogs shows a normal full label on the Clay side but mine is a plain Contemporary label, no info on the tunes on the side. https://www.discogs.com/Billy-Higgins-Bridgework/master/1545388   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have taken a second to ask him how the recording came to be and why such a long time between first recording session and second one with a different sax and bass.

Sometimes you can talk to the artist, sometimes you can't. I seem to remember a line of people waiting to shake his hand, get an autograph, etc. I was just glad I actually had this LP for him to sign.
