I know this is a real minor point but I like that this cd and the Blue Train masters were issued in a jewel case rather than a digipak as the latter always seems to get damaged.

Who is the Artist performing the version on 'Le Jazz Fait Son Cirque'? I wonder how the tune got to Parlan's attention?

the trumpet and sax solos are the same on the call mingus moves and the call atlantic box 7cd. yes? i think the producers of the cd box made a mistake somewhere.

Grant Green “Slick!–Live at Oil Can Harry’s” Resonance cd A very nice version of one of my favorite Jobim tunes, "How Insensitive". . . .

Sorry, my bad re wrong CD - indeed it is Mingus Moves My two versions of the Call from the box set & the individual CD sound slightly different with the flute continuing to almost the end of the track on the box set CD version whereas on the individual CD version the flute is much less audible & cuts off well before the end of the track (maybe the remix improved the volume of the flute in the mix? & these are the same tracks??)

Okay. Here is a new one. I'll be in Copenhagen and in San Diego later this year. Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Ts find , from the bin again. Originally released on Philips. Good find ...

the bonus versions of big alice and the call are on mingus moves, not on 'three or four shades...'. the call on the cd box is the same take as on mingus moves. so, the vinyl version of the box set should have a new alternate take of 'the call', and 2 more takes of big alice, which are not available on the cd version of the box. discogs: vinyl outtakes: O1 Music For "Todo Modo" (Take 1) 9:47 on cd box too O2 Big Alice (Take 1) 4:55 on cd box too O3 Big Alice (Take 2) 5:44 P1 Big Alice (Take 3) 4:54 P2 Big Alice (Take 4) 5:44 probably on mingus moves P3 The Call (Take 1) 7:15* P4 The Call (Take 2) 7:16* * one of these is on mingus moves.

Teodross Avery “Harlem Stories: the music of Thelonious Monk” WJ3 cd This is an exciting cd. I’m awake now. Bass – Corcoran Holt Drums – Marvin “Bugalu” Smith or Willie Jones III Piano – Anthony Wonsey Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Arranged By – Teodross Avery Recorded on January 14, 2020.

35 degrees. . . going to be a bit cooler for s spell I think. Part of me wishes for more snow, its’ back to bare trees everywhere the eye can spy, which is not my favorite sylvan look. . . . Starting off to break the still morning quiet with a fascinating trio disc, “Healnig–the music of Carla Bley” by Steve Carendas, Ben Allison and Ted Nash–Sonic Camera cd. Seems perfect music for this morning.

Oh. I missed that!

I once had an original Contemporary pressing of this LP, it sounded great.

The Cry was reissued by Craft https://www.discogs.com/release/31677476-Prince-Lasha-Quintet-Featuring-Sonny-Simmons-The-Cry Great minds think alike!

there was a nice reissue of The Cry in the recent Contemporary series on Craft Recordings https://craftrecordings.com/products/the-cry-contemporary-records-acoustic-sounds-series-180g-lp

David Murray (ts), Odeon Pope (ts), Jan Kuiper (g), Eric Colmes (b), Cornell Rochester (dr)

Miklós Lukács, Larry Grenadier and Eric Harland – Cimbalom Unlimited Groupoid – Debut

It is very strange that The Cry and Firebirds have not been rereleased, particularly since Sonny Simmons seems to be increasingly well known in the Instagram-type circles that seem to drive jazz reissues.
