You are welcome. I am trying to figure out which titles I am missing. These are as follows: Eric Gale - Forecast Grant Green with Hubert Laws - The Main Attraction [Grant Green's only single leader album left on KUDU] Joe Farrell - Canned Funk Joe Farrell - Penny Arcade Urbie Green - The Fox George Benson, Joe Farrell - Benson & Farrell Gerry Mulligan & Chet Baker - The Carnegie Hall Concert Vol.1 and 2 Kathy McCord / Kathy McCord Jack Wilkins / Opal George Benson / Pacific Fire Johnny Hammond / The Prophet What do you think? Thank you.

[CTI ALLTIME COLLECTION 1st Period (60 Titles)] [60 masterpieces from the prestigious American jazz label CTI Records (including sub-labels KUDU and SALVATION) are now being released all at once. All titles come with a luxurious booklet that reprints the liner notes from the original Japanese LP releases.] Including the 1st CTI record ever released: Kathy McCord

Speaking of Birdland, Lou was kind enough to sign my records 15 years ago in Athens.

RIP. We were happy to see him and Lonnie Smith here in Athens 2 or times.

Thank you very much for the elaborated reply! Since the CD has the version with vocals by Herman, and this version was recorded for MARS acc. to the respective MOSAIC set booklet, on July 7, 1952 and Bill Perkins plays therein acc. to the MOSAIC booklet, it may be that the CD has the recording date wrong. Is the timing the same as is at the Mosaic set, i.e. 2:54? Personnel of the MARS date: WOODY HERMAN and THE NEW THIRD HERD: Don Fagerquist, John Howell, Roy Caton, Lee Fortier(tp), Carl Fontana, Urbie Green, Jack Green (tb), Woody Herman (cl, as, vcl), Arno Marsh, Dick Hafer, Bill Perkins (ts), Sam Staff (fl, bari), Nat Pierce (p, celeste, arr), Chubby Jackson (b), Sonny Igoe (d), Dolly Houston (vcl), Ralph Burns (arr). These are the data I get from the three Woody Herman boxes released by MOSAIC, in regard to Early Autumn aka Summer Sequence PT 4: 1. SUMMER SEQUENCE PT 4 - COLUMBIA, December 28, 1947 - master 3:04, take 2 3:07, take 3 3:30 [no vocals, Stan Getz, ts] 2. EARLY AUTUMN - Capitol on December 30, 1948 in Los Angeles, California - 3:14 [no vocals, Stan Getz, ts] 3. EARLY AUTUMN MARS Verve MGV 2030 - NYC, July 7, 1952 - 2:54, [Bill Perkins, ts WOODY HERMAN on vocals]

In a review of a reissue of this LP, the following is mentioned: "Incidentally, the booklet details have goofed in claiming ‘Early Autumn’ as the 1947 one originally called ‘Summer Sequence Pt. IV’ with Getz – surprising too, since they reprint Woody's lengthy notes that devote a whole paragraph to explaining this was a 1954 version with Bill Perkins. " I could not find a readable scan of the back sleeve notes though. So, this 1954 recording of Early Autumn featuring Bill Perkins appeared first time in this LP? Thank you.

and this great book is also sold with Benny Golson's and Quincy Jones' autographs. I have both... https://www.amazon.com/KANE-HARLEM-1958-Deluxe-Limited/dp/8894366634/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.D_0QHCEpg-KPtg8HV0_zlA.Y0nq1jQ1ak-nuNI1GSYSQjrW3ARZq5zbOeIMcx4-kWg&dib_tag=se&keywords=8894366634&qid=1729670790&sr=8-1

... and we all know what happens at 44:59 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY4w4_W30aQ&t=2699s RIP Maestro.

These are acetates (?) sold at ebay. Were they used at radio stations?

Thank you but I live thousands miles away... I found the photo at the web.

Thank you indeed.

RIP. A giant. So many standards by him. The family knows him from the Terminal movie with Tom Hanks. He also made a record in Athens in 2000. “Even now at 90, I don’t know everything there is to know,” Mr. Golson told the Minneapolis Star Tribune in 2019. “So when I teach master classes, sometimes the teacher learns from the kids. That’s the way it is. That’s the way it should be. Like Sonny Rollins said to me once: ‘There’s no end to this music.’”

Thank you. One more photo from the event: Bill Bentley, seated, holds a photograph of drummer Sam Lay, who was unable to attend SXSW due to illness. Bentley, an A&R executive with Vanguard Records, was among the people who worked on "Born in Chicago" that features, from left, Nick Gravenites, Harvey Mandel, Corky Siegel and Barry Goldberg.

Thank you very much. B-Side is very interesting as well - I like the sax etc. contributions which are more "free" than expected for such a composition. Very very nice.

The bassist Scotty Holt had recorded with McLean. but it seems he did not make any recording since 1969/70. Are there any bio data available? The wiki page does not provide birth dates etc. Thank you

Indeed, thank you. It is Side A of this single featuring "Chicago blues pianist Erwin Helfer playing harpsichord, AACM drummer Steve McCall, possibly Scotty Holt on bass, and Nick's close friend, Paul Butterfield, on harp". However at Side B "Whole Lot of Soul." more AACM musicians perform as mentioned by @Chuck Nessa above and by Gravenites [Lester Bowie, trumpet; Julian Priester, trombone; Roscoe Mitchell, alto sax]. It would be great this B-Side to be shared as well. Perhaps @Chuck Nessa can help us. Thank you! https://www.discogs.com/release/12818010-Nick-The-Greek-Drunken-Boat

Gravenites had mentioned the following for this 45 record: https://www.bluespower.com/a-ngbtb.htm "Jeff [Spitz] decided that it was time to go into the record business, and he arranged a session at CBS studios in Chicago for his new label, Out Of Sight Records, a name suggested by Pete Welding, a musicologist and record producer who was living in Hyde Park. We cut two of my songs, "Whole Lotta Soul" and "Drunken Boat." These are the musicians on my first recording session: Nick Gravenites, vocal and guitar; Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop, guitar; Paul Butterfield, harmonica; Erwin Helfer, harpsichord; Scotty Holt, Bass; Steve McCall, drums; Lester Bowie, trumpet; Julian Priester, trombone; Roscoe Mitchell, alto sax. We got two bizarre-sounding songs, had a thousand copies made; five hundred got lost in a warehouse somewhere, we gave away four hundred and sold a hundred". (Nick Gravenites in his book Bad Talkin' Bluesman)" ^^^Has it ever been reissued? I doubt. I am looking for it for years, in vain...

The legendary Nick Gravenites died on September 18, 2024, at the age of 85. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Gravenites A big loss of a great man. He also had a CD released some months ago.

This track exists only in the 1997 CD from Japan, I think. https://www.discogs.com/release/1910232-Weather-Report-Mysterious-Traveller

Thank you. My first record purchased in the early 80s.

I am watching the DVD right now. It is really great, and I cannot avoid to dream what we could watch if German TV was there more often. What else was being recorded around that date? This RVG studio session took place on December 16, 1965. https://www.jazzdisco.org/verve-records/catalog-8600-series/#v-v6-8641\ V/V6-8641 The Incredible Jimmy Smith - Got My Mojo Workin' 1966 Jimmy Smith, organ; Kenny Burrell, guitar; Ben Tucker, bass #1,2; Ron Carter, bass #3,4; Grady Tate, drums; Oliver Nelson, arranger, conductor.
