I'll also preorder. Interesting not to see any mention of Benny Goodman in the blurb. I know the Goodman estate is notorious about limiting reissues, but V-Discs are all in the public domain, so I'm curious about that lacuna.

This. Have this mini-lp issue, one of the most suavist albums of all time.

Thanks, Joe!

Wow, the first link is it! Have that teaser disk with Jim Hall, thanks!

So keen for this!

Enjoyed watching/listening to Mulligan with Mingus (!) on that Mingus 'Montreux 75' DVD yesterday.

I misread, sorry. Put me down for March, please.

I picked up a copy of this Cadillac/BBC 'Cortege' 2CD at the Westbrook gig in Torquay this afternoon. Will give it a listen tomorrow. The 'Band of Bands' sounded great today, for my money it is one of the best Westbrook lineups. The material also draws on gems of the past repertoire and is astutely selected.

I was fortunate enough to tell Ian how much I appreciated his book and his albums to his face ! Had forgotten that I've also got a copy of the Cole book. Picked it up cheap last year but not yet read.

Mmm, nope, you can't. January, February, May and December are taken. All else is open.

I'll pre-order when I can.

Yes, I can ID #7. Let's just say I don't think I ever expected the pianist and the srums/timbales player here to appear on record together. https://www.jazzdisco.org/montego-joe/catalog/#prestige-pr-7336 Your clue on #10 has me wondering... could that be Rusty Bryant?

Too bad Mulligan's Stringtime was never released as an official LP. (Or would it have been an album with Vinnie Burke as co-leader?) The contents (nine tracks total, I think) are available across the Mosaic Select and The Gerry Mulligan Songbook. Gerry Mulligan: baritone saxophone Paul Palmieri: guitar Dick Wetmore: violin Calo Scott: cello Vinnie Burke: bass Dave Bailey: drums recorded December 5, 1957 1. May-Reh 2. The Preacher 3. Good Bait 4. Bags' Groove 5. Lullaby In Rhythm 6. Body And Soul 7. Out of Nowhere 8. I'll Remember April 9. I Can't Get Started It's probably been discussed here (somewhere?), but what's the story about why this recording date never saw the light of day on vinyl? It's not at all a throwaway session. Mulligan plays really well; Wetmore a little less so. Time for a Tone Poets release! 😁

👍

Hell yeah.
