Quincy Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 On my deserted island I have unlimited access to Riverside, Prestige, Contemporary, hats, and so forth. So I'll get my Dolphy, Rollins, Ornette elsewhere. Still, it's tough. Despite the above conditions I'll still double up on the Monk. Apologies to Midnight Blue, Somethin' Else, Right Now!, Amazing Bud Powells, Hill and so on. Blakey Birdland Vol. 1 Dexter Gordon - Our Man In Paris Grant Green - Idle Moments Herbie Hancock - Empyrean Isles Bobby Hutcherson - Components Jackie McLean - Let Freedom Ring Monk Genius Vol. 1 Monk - Genius Vol. 2 Ike Quebec - It Might As Well Be Spring Sam Rivers - Fuchsia Swing Song I a mixup in shipping to the island occured and I get Indestructable! & Go instead I wouldn't complain.

Art Blakey: Birdland Vol. 1 Dizzy Reece: Blues in Trinity Ike Quebec: Blue & Sentimental Tina Brooks: Minor Move Sonny Clark: Leapin' and Lopin' Hated to leave off Monk and Trane at Carnegie Hall - issued on Blue Note, but not really a BN recording.

J Larsen Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 My initial reaction to the thread title was that I would take my chances and try swimming to a better island, but with the caveat that I get to change my mind later, my picks are John Coltrane - Blue Train Eric Dolphy - Out to Lunch Art Blakey - Free for All Don Cherry - Where is Brooklyn Monk Genius vol. 2 Wayne Shorter - Juju or Odyssey - gonna have to think about this... Cecil Taylor Unit Structures Andrew Hill - Andrew!!! Bud Powell - Amazing vol. 1 Jackie McLean - Let Freedom Ring Grant Green Sunday Mornin (yes, Idle Moments is better, but somehow this is the one I'd want) Dexter Gordon Go PS: I use the duodecimal system.

Teasing the Korean Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Any of the Blue Note CD compilations including such important Blue Note artists such as Chet Baker or Julie London would be fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Larsen Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Any of the Blue Note CD compilations including such important Blue Note artists such as Chet Baker or Julie London would be fine with me. This is likely my own ignorance showing, but did Chet Baker actually ever record for Blue Note? I thought he only ended up being reissued by BN because EMI bought Pacific Jazz and put it under BN's control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Julie London and Chet Baker show up on Blue Note compilations; so, they MUST have recorded for Blue Note, right? Blue Note would NEVER dream of misrepresenting their back catalog, would they?

All the Horace Silver discs with Blue Mitchell and Junior Cook Jimmy Smith-Back To The Chicken Shack Jimmy Smith-House Party Kenny Burrell-Midnight Blue Kenny Burrell-Blue Lights Vol 1&2 Lee Morgan-Search For The New Land Lee Morgan-The Gigolo Chris, the rule was 10 discs, not 100! 10 individual releases! A big part of the experience is going through the difficult exercise of cutting the list down to 10. We get your point, and love the bodies of work by Blakey and Silver, but I can't count any of your picks in my tally unless you cut it down to 1o individual albums!
