You can get those two cuts by buying the Blue Note Ike Quebec Jukebox, which has all the contents on replica OG 45s.

There are a lot of regional pronunciations in Canada and I've heard both "kwe-BEK" and "ke-BEK" but never "QWEE-bek" or "KEE-bek"

Is it too late to tell Blue Note?

I have subscribed.

I'd love a copy of the Myers album, but otherwise I don't think these are too hard to come by. The MB solo is a perennial $20 used LP, the Sun Ra has been reissued several times, the Wertman was reissued a few years ago and it still around, and the McCraven is being prepared for reissue now via a Kickstarter campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wooleythenewt1/stephen-mccraven-wooley-the-newt

So how do the Canadians pronounce the city of "Quebec"? From what I remember from those I've encountered around here or heard on Canadian Army radio (when there still was such a thing here) it is more like "kwe-BEK" or "ke-BEK" but rarely "QWEE-bek" or "KEE-bek". I.e pronounced with the stress on the end (as with the habitants referred to as the "ke-BEKKERS"). But as you indicate, it apparently is different with his name.

I love the 2 CD set. On many days I like it better than Quebec’s LPs.

Many thanks for the kind words. Appreciate it.

In an interview with Art Taylor, Percy describes "Ike QWEE-bek" as a "real buddy of mine". It never occurred to me that proper pronunciation might be a long "e" but that's how Percy said his name.
