From I read elsewhere (Londonjazzcollector) this was the last BN session produced/recorded before the hand over to Liberty. Earliest edition were Liberty pressed. One might assume that having a NY label makes it an earlier pressing ( than my Liberty labelled edition), not that it actually matters and of course with BN pressings nothing can ever be assumed !!!

sidewinder Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) Was going to comment on how impressive the inside cover was for this title, not to mention the great front and back photos. Wonder if the NY label copies have Liberty sleeves? Edited May 15, 2016 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 They should, a la Cecil Taylor's "Unit Structures," John Patton's "Let 'em Roll" and other hybrid issues from the period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Thinking about it, my 'Unit Structures' and 'Let Em Roll' are like that too.

clifford_thornton Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Allan Praskin - Encounter - (Three Blind Mice, JP) fantastic quartet date with Kiyoshi Sugimoto, Yoshio Ikeda and Motohiko Hino. Praskin is also the altoist on James Zitro's ESP record date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Harry De Wit & Phillip Wachsmann - For Harm - (Bead, UK) excellent violin-piano duos and quartets with Kees van Zelst and Jan Kamphuis (percussion and bass, respectively).

Clunky Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Elton Dean---------Cheque is in the mail-------(Ogun) The "dated' sound of Gallivan's synth sounds timeless. I've mixed feelings about the end result which doesn't ultimately bring the best out of Wheeler or Dean. Worth hearing and trying again. Perhaps I'd feel it more if it was by Sun Ra -where weirdness trumps everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't buy it at the time it came out, fearing excessive 'weirdness'. Looks like one I can afford to live without for some time longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) Clifford Brown/Max Roach: Live at the Bee Hive (CBS Holland) Max Roach played a lot of great music over his lifetime, but if he had done nothing other than this recording, his reputation as a master musician would be assured. He must have been exhausted after playing this gig. Â Â Edited May 17, 2016 by paul secor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll dig it out. Must get hold of Harry's 'Joy Unlimited' on Ogun. Heard a track or two of that one at the time it came out and never seen it since !

Homefromtheforest Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Philip Catherine "stream" (charlevoix, Canada) 2015 vinyl reissue from Quebec of all places. Have no clue if this is legit or not - does anyone have more info on this? Â Found it on eBay as I've long wanted the original but never felt compelled to spend the crazy money originals go for. Â After playing it I'm glad I never did spend money on an original; it's nice but the tunes are all pretty short and I actually prefer "September man". Â I guess the presence of Marc Moulin on keys and the extra "funk" sound pushes the price up on this. Â Anyway...this reissue will serve me fine.
