Milestones Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Anyone know anything about this? I've been able to hear a few samples, featuring songs like "Straight No Chaser" and "We Got Rhythm." There are 5 tracks, and it certainly sounds like Wes in his prime. Clark Terry, of course, sounds great. I don't know of any other case where Wes had such a close partnership with a trumpeter/flugelhornist. When was this recorded? Under whose name? Who are the other players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 would like to hear this. Should be easy to identify pre-free Bennink. listening to a track on YT - definitely Bennink. i have this session on a Jazz door cd (1227) from 1992 with the following personal: wes, g, terry, tp, Harold mabern, p, Arthur harper, b, Jimmy lovelace, dr. ???? Keep boppin´ marcel I think that was from slightly earlier in the year, recorded in Paris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzulov Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) On 1/15/2015 at 5:36 PM, Milestones said: Source: http://www.gould68.freeserve.co.uk/wes3.htm The page carries a picture from the recording session thanks, can't open the source, but alright. seems like the first four tracks also made it to a re-release under Wes + Billy Taylor's name gotta look for the inside booklet mentioned on there to see if the personnel listing is correct. is there another Wes session then, with Harold Mabern but without Clark Terry? and it's really weird with that Rhythm-a-Ning title listing, why Opus Caprice? the "incorrect" Jazz Door release lists that tune as "Wes Got Rhythm" with Montgomery as the composer Edited March 22, 2017 by jazzulov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Dryden Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 I just interviewed Harold Mabern earlier this month and he toured Europe with Wes Montgomery in 1965. They appeared on television broadcasts for the BBC and also in Belgium. I think those may be available on grey market European DVDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
