Absolutely to the point!

Thinking of trumpet players, I like Thad Jones the best with Monk, with Copeland a close second. Monk needed a tenor player finding a balance between thematic improvisation and working the changes, avoiding standard licks. So Rollins maybe the best. Rouse never got in the way and did not just run the changes, but was limited compared to all others. But he simply worked fine in this context without causing trouble, which may have been the most important part. Agreed!

To me it looked like a bag he was put in (or put himself in). There are two cheapo 5-albums-on-2 CDs compilation of some Capitol albums (with overlaps) that make for a nice listen: That he was able to play good organ jazz can be heard on a track he recorded with Harold Land for a Pacific Jazz compilation. https://www.discogs.com/master/921874-Various-This-Is-The-Blues-Volume-1 https://www.discogs.com/master/488486-Various-Blowin-The-Blues

Seconded!

Rahsaan Roland Kirk & The Vibration Society in a 1970 TV recording on the DJazz TV Channel. Looks like the music from this CD:

Woody Schabata - May-rimba

Can you please post details? I can't find it anywhere ..... p.s. found a track list on amazon - his Swingville LP mixed with several older tracks. Have 'em all. Nagel Heyer going the bootleg route.

👍

This issue of the session with Bailey may be easier to find: https://www.discogs.com/release/10312566-Pony-Poindexter-Frank-Rosolino-Fritz-Pauer-Art-Farmer-The-Exciting-Jaz

I have similar thoughts. You have to consider the percentage of women on any instrument. The majority are vocalists or pianists. This has changed only since the 1970's. In this respect Mosaic's releases only reflect the respective numbers among recordings actually released. That said, there are others factors than gender involved - how many great musicians are under-recorded?

Yep: https://www.discogs.com/release/10456228-Earl-Bostic-Richard-Groove-Holmes-Joe-Pass-Complete-Quintet-Recordings - Bostic, Holmes, and Pass on all tracks. Pretty smokin' sessions, originally released on King.

This is a reissue of an LP originally released on MPS on their Session sublabel in 1970. That issue and the re-issue both say it was recorded in 1969, but at that time Jan Hammer already was in the USA. 1968 is the date Poindexter shares in his memoirs and mentioned in the credits of a recent ENJA release which has Benny Bailey added. https://jazzdiscography.com/Artists/pony-poindexter-discography

Disc one from both of these, probably my favourites:

I have a large format calendar with his works - portraits of famous musicians based on photographs. I even had two of them framed in the living room for a while. http://www.iliev.de/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2015/03/joosClarke.jpg http://www.iliev.de/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2015/03/joosLewis40x60 https://www.booklooker.de/Bücher/Michael-Naura-Herbert-Joos+Miles-An-illustrated-Portrait/id/A02yHYBA01ZZb https://www.kind-of-blue.de/seiten/joos.htm
