  1. No Come come - British jazz musician who wrote the theme for Newley's TV series "Life of Gurney Slade". It was a big hit. Only for those who live in the country where it was aired! We Americans know Newley, of course, but have never heard of the series.

  6. The original is definitely on New Jazz. Status releases are, for the most part, reissues from the Prestige/New Jazz catalog. They came out in the mid 1960's. They were sold at budget prices, usually $1.50 - $2.00. Often, the covers and labels don't match. This may be because they had some covers left over, and pressed up a few Status records to go in them, or perhaps it was too expensive to change the cover art. I have seen Status records in New Jazz covers, I have seen Status records in covers that have a Status sticker pasted over the New Jazz logo, and I have seen Status records in Status covers. Such is typical of a small operation like Prestige. The Status pressings, like many New Jazz pressings, are noisy - usually hissy, because they are pressed on low grade vinyl.

  11. How about the two SMOKING Coleman Hawkins albums on Crown? They are not reissues, but original sessions.

  14. This is a great series - veteran musicians who still had plenty to say, and well recorded.

  15. The liner notes on this (and most of the other LP's in this series) are useless bullshit, and the discographical details are inaccurate. I got my information from Arne Astrup's Stan Getz discography. There is no "Now's the Time" on this LP. I checked through the other Europa LP's, and on 1040 there is a version of "Now's the Time", credited to Rene Thomas Quintet. There are two tracks on the LP credited to Thomas, but the instrumentations don't match. The date given is 1962. On this track, the instrumentation is alto sax, guitar, bass, drums. Might this be Wilen?
  16. "Indiana" recorded at Cannes Jazz Festival, July 13, 1958. The band is Stan Getz, Guy Lafitte, Barney Wilen, Don Byas, Coleman Hawkins (ts), Martial Solal (p), Arvell Shaw (b), J. C. Heard (d) "Dear Old Stockholm" & "Lady Bird" rec. April, 1959, prob. at Blue Note, Paris. Stan Getz (ts), Rene Urtreger (p), Jimmy Gourley (g), Jean-Marie Ingrand (b), Kenny Clarke (d). "Theme For Emmanuel" & "Our Kind of Sabi" rec. August 26, 1971, Chateauville, France. Stan Getz (ts), Rene Thomas (g), Eddy Louiss (org), Bernard Lubat (d)

  23. That's the beauty of it. Definitely of its time.
  24. My condolences as well. All of us who have lost pets can understand the sense of grief and loss.
  25. The earliest CTI's (maybe the first five or six) are green label, after which they changed to the more familiar tan/yellow label. I bought "Red Clay" as a new release - it has a green label.
