Oops, wrong thread. Moderator: please move to new releases - thanks! And it's Freddie Redd, not Freddie Warren. Duh. Thanks for moving and correcting!

Both the Freddie Redd CD mentioned earlier and a Butch CD with Freddie, Brad Linde and Matt Wilson are available now on Brad's Bandcamp page! Baltimore Jazz Loft | Butch Warren & Freddie Redd | Brad Linde (bandcamp.com) Reminiscing | Freddie Redd | Brad Linde (bandcamp.com)

Man, I don't have the other two. They should put out a box.

The Berlin date is amazing and should be officially released, if only for the octet version of Moto Grosso Feio. Where did the studio version of Directions that was on the Forecast Tomorrow Box set come from? I suspect there are a number of out-takes, including the Miroslav's Tune discussed above.

Secret projects? Same guy!

No specifics were given, and I think it was pre-recorded, so no Q & A. 200 tapes were also mentioned. I have heard so many different numbers thrown around regarding how many concerts were actually recorded among the 1,000 or so they programmed. I don't think they know for sure, nor does Vic Zeldman the detective. This will be a monthly series on WEAA apparently, it might be archived. My guess is George Coleman will be next. Not sure about future weeks, I guess they could talk about the two Uptown sets...

Vic Zeldman? LOL. He was not involved in Both Directions At Once, was he? 15 tapes in play? Hmmm...

John Fowler is being interviewed as we speak on WEAA,org. First interesting fact: he said the recordings were never recorded with the intention of being released.

Thanks. I will have to listen carefully to see if there is any trumpet at all then.

This box set has three rehearsal tracks from the Africa/Brass date: Laura/Nakatini Serenade/The Damned Don't Cry. I bought them as downloads so I don't have the discographical info. Is Booker Little on these tracks? Thanks, Bertrand.

I only see the first season.

Regarding the Mickey Fields record on Edmar - who is the composer of Left Bank Cookout? I assume Little Green Apples is the tune by Bobby Russell. I saw a site that offers a download. I usually avoid those. Is it safe to do so or is Putin trying to hack into my PC by offering free Left Bank downloads?

The Tom Lord discography lists many other songs called Rio since The Procrastinator. They are probably not all Wayne's song, but here are some likely candidates: Jim Schapperoew 9/30/84 Peter Leitch Red Zone 11/16/85 CONFIRMED Kent Jordan 1988 (his sister sings on Joe's new record) Billy Pierce Rio 5/25-26/94 CONFIRMED Dale Fielder Tribute To Wayne Shorter 1995 CONFIRMED Louis Hayes Louis At Large 4/17/96 CONFIRMED Abraham Burton Drifting Inward 2/22-23/98 Pietro Tonolo Passport 3/13-14/11 CONFIRMED Joe Bagg 2012 Harvie S. Witchcraft 4/17/12

I saw that after. There are no other trumpet players on the list who could be the one in that photo. But then, the list is not complete. Booker and George Coleman are listed, but not Max's other sidemen, Ray Draper and Art Davis. Or did Booker and George also lead their own groups and the above is a list of leaders? Highly unlikely.

1) Joe was teaching at UNC Wilmington. He does not anymore, but stayed there. I do think he has family there also. 2) I asked Joe about Rio. I thought I posted already, maybe not. Joe learned of the piece through Bobby Hutcherson, who of course was on The Procrastinator. It was in the repertoire of the Hutcherson/Land band. Joe said they played it a lot but it is not on any of the live bootlegs. Maybe on one of the two Left Bank tapes that I know exist because John Fowler told me they existed (he did not have tapes of the other two Left Bank concerts). Getting Left Bank setlists for my discographical research is why I got involved, but his majesty the detective was having none of that. As for the title...I believe they never had a title for it when they played it, which suggests that it was not titled when Procrastinator was recorded, or maybe Bobby forgot it, 'Rio' is a tricky title to remember That is a question for Michael Cuscuna. Was it titled in Lion's paperwork? Wayne did not send in a lead sheet for copyright, it was copyrighted as part of the LP only. So yes, Joe's 1976 version is not the first recorded, but it is the first released. I will check Tom Lord later for other versions. Joe recorded it again with an Italian group called Passport in 2011. I think the leader is Pietro Tonolo.

The First Monterey Jazz Festival in 1958 – Voices of East Anglia In the photo with Sonny Rollins with the MC raising up his hands, who is the trumpet player next to Sonny? Ray Draper is in two photos, we know he was at the Festival with Max.

Thank you for posting that, Jim. As I had said, I have no financial interest in this record, just helping Joe get the word out - he is very excited about it! I appreciate the positive comments! Bertrand.

You mean the vimeo link? That would be awesome! I wanted to watch it again. Please keep us posted.

The Monterey Jazz Festival Collection | Stanford Libraries I can't seem to find a listing. Can anyone figure it out?

I have some questions, I guess for James Harrod. 1) Will we be able to watch the Max Roach segment again? 2) Better yet, will this ever be released commercially? 3) They play Minor Mode Blues, Scene Is Clean and Love For Sale. What is the opening and closing theme? 4) They were at Monterey just before that. Is there a recording? Many Monterey gigs were recorded...

Thanks! The DVD also has some tracks from Belgium. Other than the Jazz Icons DVD, is there any other footage?

OK, so 'most' of them are not on DVD. I thought I was missing something! I went through the discography. I have all the official recordings from the tour (inlcuding the Mosaic box and the DVD), and just got the Copenhagen bootleg which is great. I think one or two of them I only got as downloads, I need to look into that. I also have a download of at least one bootleg. This makes me wonder how many of these were filmed beyond those discussed above... Bertrand. EDIT I only got Revenge! as a free download from the Library, I wonder if it is still in print. I also have a download of Stuttgart, I think there was a bootleg. I actually made a playlist from the tour (and US pre-tour). Here is what I have. Am I missing anything? Cornell 3/18/64 (Blue Note CD) Town Hall 4/4/64 (Fantasy CD - partial concert; full concert in the Mosaic Box) Concertgebouw 4/10/64 (Mosaic Box) Copenhagen 4/14/64 (Bootleg CD on Hi Hat) Bremen 4/16/64 (Sunnyside CD) Paris 4/17/64 (Revenge!) Paris 4/19/64 (Great Concert) Wuppertal 4/26/64 (In Europe 1 and 2 on Enja) Stuttgart 4/28/64 (Bootleg CD?)

How many of the 64 concerts are on DVD? This is news to me.
