  3. Why not just say it's with strings and let people judge for themselves? I like this record a lot - it's unique in the Dexter catalog, and the string writing is quite interesting.

  12. I forgot about this one: Dizzy Gillespie and the Double Six of Paris (Philips) noteworthy for the presence of Bud Powell, but otherwise not essential **1/2 Actually, there were 3 Limelight albums: Jambo Caribe (a calypso record, fun but on the light side) The New Continent (a big band session recorded for Philips in 1962, not released until c. 1966) The Melody Lingers On (this was the rather commercial side I referred to in the previous post) One of the first times I saw Dizzy, the latter was his newest album. At one point James Moody, in a mock attempt to hawk the album on stage, held it up and read off the song titles, effectively ridiculing the record and jokingly humiliating Dizzy. As light as the record is, the band totally kicked ass live.
  13. Stefan, how about posting a list of signees here so we can be sure whether or not we are on the list?
  14. My understanding is that while Philips may have been a separate entity from Mercury when Dizzy first signed with the label in the early 1960's, the label was connected to Mercury by the time Dizzy's 3rd Philips album "Something Old Something New" was released in 1963. My copy of the original LP identifies Philips as "A Division of Mercury". In answer to the question of the quality of the 5 Philips LP's: Dizzy On the French Riviera ***** New Wave **** Something Old Something New ***** Dizzy Goes Hollywood **1/2 The Cool World ***1/2 After this his releases were transferred to the newly created Limelight label, (as were many of the artists signed to Mercury/Philips, like Gerry Mulligan, Roland Kirk, Oscar Peterson, et al.) As far as I can tell, there were only 2 Dizzy releases on Limelight: Jambo Caribe (a rather commercial effort that can be omitted) The New Continent (a big band session recorded for Philips in 1962, not released until c. 1966)

  24. I've heard that too, and I do know that the Carter Family sets issued by JSP (dubbed right off Bear Family's set) were deleted.
