Horace Silver - Live 1964.


Hardbopjazz

Recommended Posts

Sound quality is good. Recorded at the Cork and Bib on Long Island by William Glaser.

While you are at it, the Silveto release Spiritualizing the Senses (with Ralph Moore and Eddie Harris) is quite good as well--probably his best post-Blue Note recording.

And if I recall, little or none of his goofy lyrics.  (YMMV).

On the live set I remember when I stumbled across it. Nice to hear that band on the older material.

There's this one, which Emerald released on CD only:

I'm wanting to say that the Emerald LP material made it to CD on some bootleg label, but I'm not really sure about that.

Or maybe it's that this one was later released on some other label?

Either way, the Silveto/Emerald catalog should be of interest to any serious Silver collector, not just as music, but as an expression of Horace's philosophy self-reliance, not just spiritually, but materially as well. Philosophical/lyrical reservations aside, the music is good, and the players are top-shelf all the way. Plenty of unplugged Eddie Harris!

And besides the two Emerald releases of Silver live, there's a Clark Terry gig there as well: https://www.discogs.com/Clark-Terry-Live-1964/release/4739853

I have yet to either see or hear this one: https://www.discogs.com/Horace-Silver-Los-Angeles-Modern-String-Orchestra-The-Continuity-Of-Spirit/release/5814321

Spiritualizing the Senses is an all instrumental album.

There's another signed one on eBay now for $75. What made me chuckle is the sales copy the seller wrote.

*RECORDED LIVE:
AT THE CORK & BUD" NIGHTCLUB

As I recall, "Live 64" was a vinyl only release.

"The Natives Are RestlessTonight" CD first came out on Emerald, as pictured, but later showed up under the title "Re-Entry" on 32Jazz.

Both of these are, in my opinion, essential for any Horace fan. "Natives" contains broadcast material from Alan Grant, in stereo.

Hi Jack! Haven't seen you in a while. Nice to see you back!

No, he wasn't. To the best of my knowledge, the band I saw never recorded an album. It was this band, with Randy Brecker on tenor, not Bennie Maupin:

Yes, that's the version of the band I was thinking of. An excellent album, I imagine that band would have been exciting to hear.

Absolutely incredible - one of the best gigs I've been to and I've been to a lot! Horace and Billy Cobham really had something going.

The only other gig that came anywhere near it was sitting on the front row of the Free Trade Hall for a Basie concert shortly after they recorded The Atomic Mr Basie. My 19-year-old self was so knocked out that Frank Foster was laughing at me - the saxophone section was only a few feet away.

The kind of memories that certainly are something to remember forever ....

See Bill Birch, p. 129 to 131. ;) Too bad the pics did not include a view of the front row of the audience. ;)
