Looking at the front cover, one can assume that this is an all star date with no leader, something Prestige did regularly. On the back cover however, Young's name is shown in much larger type at the top, like this: WEBSTER YOUNG, cornet with Paul Quinichette, tenor sax Joe Puma, guitar Mal Waldron, piano Earl May, bass Ed Thigpen, drums Five of the tunes are songs associated with Billie Holiday. The title track is a Webster Young original composition. Mal Waldron contributed two arrangements to the date.

And it's not even an original pressing!!! How come I never get bids like that?? Presumably a real 'original' has '47W 63rd New York 23' on one of the labels? Oh dear ! The original would have the Lexington Ave address. This pressing is from around 1960 or later.

And it's not even an original pressing!!! How come I never get bids like that??

The Vancouver concert (January 30, 1965 according to Astrup) was issued on vinyl - "The Canadian Concert of Stan Getz", Can-Am 1300. It sounds to have been dubbed from a somewhat noisy disk source, not a tape, although the sound quality is pretty good. I wonder if Gambit has been able to clean it up?

At the time I thought their first four albums were brilliant. After that, they got just a liitle too "out", and not very funny. Haven't had any desire to listen to them lately, but I still think "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers" is a classic.

We just came back from a magnificent fireworks display over Lake Quannapowitt in my home town of Wakefield, Mass. No matter how old I get, I still love the fireworks! sssssssssssssssssssssssss BOOM

The Buckley RCA 10" LP was recorded in 1955. The track on the 1970's RCA compilation is an alternate take (different musical backing), although it doesn't say so.

I've purposely kept Blue Note out of this thread -- since there are SO many BN studio dates that were released years later. So, NO BLUE NOTE DATES, unless they were recorded for some other label, and then later released by Blue Note. My bad. I need to look at the thread title a little more carefully.

Some of the unreleased Blue Notes are as good as anything that was issued when new. I especially like: Lee Morgan - Tom Cat Grant Green - Nigeria Hank Mobley - A Slice Of the Top Sonny Clark - My Conception also: Bud Powell/Don Byas - A Tribute To Cannonball (Columbia) With a little thought, I can definitely come up with plenty more!

That's a good plan. It's the detractors/trolls who are missing out. FWIW, Kenny Burrell has long been one of my favorite musicians, for a variety of reasons.

Turk Murphy, Lu Watters, and Bob Scobey all recorded for Verve during the Granz years.

Cub was a subsidiary of MGM created long before they acquired Verve. The Quotations were on Verve long before the label was acquired by MGM.

Downloaded the folder, and unzipped it. There are 13 tracks, which I was able to burn to two CD's, and I will begin to listen to in the car on my way to work this morning!

OK, I've deleted the .rar file I downloaded last night, but when I right click on the link in your first post, I get "Webpage is Unavailable". Maybe this is a temporary situation? I am familiar with Zip files, and should have no trouble unzipping it, if I can only get the damned thing!

OK, I've downloaded the compressed file, and now I'm supposed to buy the software so I can open it? I went to the website, and saw that their is a trial version available, but I don't know which one to get! How about a little assistance for those of us older folks who are trying, but are somewhat technologically challenged!

13 out of 20. Not sure I can tell Heath, Butter Brickle, & Skor apart!

The man has mad me laugh for the last 40 years - one of the greatest, smartest, and funniest!

Byas is wonderful on this. Rodriguez was very popular in Portugal, and she has a lovely soulful style. Although it may seem like strange bedfellows, Byas compliments her perfectly.

Collectables usually reissues the original LP as it was - I don't know of any instances where they have done any remastering or altering in any way, so I assume that the Collectables CD includes the fake applause. As I'm sure you know, sometimes when they put two albums on one CD, they are forced to drop a track or two. The LP had 7 tracks: The Time and the Place, The Shadow Of Your Smile, One For Juan, Nino's Scene, Short Cake, Make Someone Happy, On the Trail.

I just picked up Mosaic's release entitled "The Time and the Place". When I heard that they were going to reissue this, I wondered if they were aware that the original Columbia LP was a studio recording with fake applause dubbed in. The concert had taken place at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Columbia recorded the show, but for whatever reason, they decided not to issue the live recording, and had the band come into the studio a few months later to "recreate" the concert. The result was a fine LP, even with the sonic deception. I had the pleasure of seeing this group twice back in the 1960's, so the record has always been a favorite. Well, this "reissue" is not the original LP at all - it is the live recording that has been sitting in the vaults all these years. Like many live recordings, there are a few warts, but the music is wonderful, and I highly recommend it. The band is Art Farmer, Jimmy Heath, Albert Dailey, Walter Booker, and Mickey Roker. By the time the band recorded the originally issued LP, Dailey had been replaced by Cedar Walton, so this new release is especially valuable. http://www.mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=1010

Technically, maybe. Berlin was born in Russia, and came to the US when he was five. All of the songs were written in the US.

I remember this show from the 1950's. It has to be one of the tackiest shows in the history of TV!

We are in day 4 of a blistering 90+ heat wave. We New Englanders ain't used to this shit! But it's OK, the Celtics are up 2-0.

CBS/Sony has lowered the list price for a number of items in their catalog. These are the same titles that sold for around $12.00 a year ago. I don't believe there has been any change in the actual CD's, just a lowering of the price structure. This is the company's way of addressing the very soft CD market. The company has a very large catalog, and rather than delete slow-moving titles, they have slashed the wholesale prices, and are offering them to retailers on a no-return basis.
