jcam_44 Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Does anyone know what albums were released on Billy Higgins label World Stage records. The only 3 I have been able to find are: Black Note - 43rd and Degnan Robert Stewart - Judgement and Philippe Vieux QT - Point of Vieux I'm wondering if anyone has any info on other releases. I haven't had any success researching on the internets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Long shot here, but Black/Note - L.A. Underground...definitely released on Red, but see this: But then, this: http://www.redrecords.it/item.aspx?id=170&tipo=releases&lang=ENG I don't know...sounds like label pimping and/or willfull-ish "ignorance" to me. The All Music Guide cites Judgement as having been released on World Stage Records. It is the same recording as that released on RED, for whom I credit with the first release.

Thats interesting, I own Illusions In Blues on Chazz/Jazz label and its copyright date is 1990 and states its a live recording but doesn't list the location. Possible it was reissued by World Stage 3 years later I supposed. Chazz/Jazz appears to have been located in La Jolla, CA, so the SoCal proximity leads to this being a possibility as well. Thanks!!!!! 3 hours ago, mikeweil said: The Lord Disco has only these two, with a note that the latter was reissued on Red Records. IIRC Higgins had a good relationship with the Italian label. I believe the stream of the album Robert has on Youtube for judgement states it was reissued by Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcam_44 Posted July 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Album Catalog No. Black Note - 43rd & Degnan WSR 1011 Charles McPherson - Illusions In Blue * WSR 1012 Robert Stewart - Judgement WSR 1013 WSR 1014 The Philippe Vieux Qt. - Point of Vieux WSR 1015 Faye Carol - The Flow WSR 1016 * Based on the Robert Stewart insert, it lists Illusions In Blue as catalog No. 1012. The Chazz Jazz (McPherson's label) release has a 1990 copyright date, which would pre-date it to the World Stage Records labels first release in 1991. There are a couple interesting articles about this album archived with LA Times, where it seems Charles had a dispute with the venue that some songs were recorded at. All the article list dates that indicate the Chazz Jazz release was after 1990 since it doesn't seem it had quite been released in 1991, but was available in 1993: April 2nd, 1991 article, April 23rd,1991 article, June 2nd, 1993 article. I honestly have no idea what to make of all this but its interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
