JSngry Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 5) The first Blue Note album that launched Dexter’s first comeback was? Come September Body & Soul Dexter Calling Harlem Nocturne All of the above are incorrect. The correct answer is Doin' Alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardbopjazz Posted December 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 I got question 7 and 9 wrong. For some reason question 5 seemed to have all the wrong answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Johnson Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Agree with Jim, got 11/12 otherwise (missed Ronnie Scott--thought I heard that quote had to do with Archie Shepp, d'oh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheldonm Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 ......9 of 12! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim R Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 11 out of 12. I missed #7... didn't think hard enough. Besides #5, there was another question that seemed odd- the one about which pianist was on the 1970's bebop album... which they didn't name. I was looking around for a cover image.

Uh, Wynton Kelly on The Jumpin Blues? I'm sorry Jim, but I'm going to have to revoke your status as a true-blue Dex-aholic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Oh, and I also got 11 out of 12. But at least I didn't miss Jumpin' Blues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tapscott Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Figured I was going to get at least 11. Only got 10. I'm a perfectionist (but only when it comes to jazz, as my wife often tells me!) Missed the Scott question (I'm wondering about that one, though. I never thought of Ronnie as a "free" player). Also the last one. I am totally unaware of that album, and guessed Baker. I should have known it was Newman, but I kind of figured his chops were a little over the hill by that point. Guess not.

Chuck Nessa Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Got 'em all. AND I felt good when I saw "Something Different" mentioned since I chose the title for that recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the world of the jazz record biz. OK. But Something Different was recorded/released in 1975. I guess it took a while before you got the go ahead to set up the US office.

It was not released in 1975. Where the farque do you get this info? It, like other SCS Dexter masters were held back to cash in on the Columbia promotions. Duh! Edit to add that in Denmark (at least at the time) the musicians didn't need to get paid until the date was issued. Nils used this to his advantage and regularly recorded multiple dates with musicians at a time and paid later. Not saying that was "bad", just the way it was.

Duh! http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&t...10:htk9ikkhbb19 Let me ask you this: AMG lists More than You Know Stable Mable Swiss Nights Vol 1-3 Something Different Bouncin' With Dex as recorded in 1975. Plus Strings and Things Lullabuy for a Monster Biting the Apple as 1976 recordings. Did any] of them come out in those years? How exactly did Steeplechase handle Dexter switching labels? Was it analagous to Miles Davis and Prestige before the switchover to Columbia? Or did they put out one or two LPs in '75-'76, then scour the archives for releasable sessions after Homecoming?

So, after being (at worst) a liar and (at best) a braggart you want me to supply you with a bunch of information? Time for research Dan.
