brownie Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 None of the producer/engineer information appears on the original Bethlehem LP issue. There may have been a producer assigned for the session but it looks like Mingus was in charge throughout. Gene Santoro's biography of Mingus 'Myself When I Am Real' has a note stating that the session cost $1,247,99. The note is from the Mingus Archives at the Library of Congress.

Dmitry Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Thanks, Guy. My feeling is that the cd bonus tracks were recorded on different date than the tracks that made it on the original album. It sounds different, the mix is different, the pitch is different.

brownie Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Dmitry, there were at least two sessions (one with Gene Shaw on trumpet and another where Shaw had to be replaced by Bill Hardman). Understand some of the tunes were edited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
