Jerry Newman also recorded Sonny Berman's 'Beautiful Jewish Music' (with Al Cohn, Earl Swope, Serge Chaloff, Don Lamond, etc...) a jam session that took place at his home. It was issued on Onyx. Don't know if it ever was released on CD.
yes, this wonderful session is original on an esoteric lp (i think newman´s own label, because i have an al haig session on esoteric records reissued on fresh sound cd from 1954 and there it´s written "recorded in the esoteric studios, new york city by jerry newman") and another one on "period" also recorded by newman. -- sonny berman is on cool & blue cd 111 (switzerland) from 1993 and maybe long oop.
there are also two cd´s on "high note" (hcd 7066 and hcd 7082) with charlie ventura and bill harris live at the three deuces 1947 with the wonderful dave tough on drums recorded by jerry newman "on location". very fine music!
i wonder where are the archives from people like jerry newman (minton´s), bob andrews (west coast), boris rose (ny radio) and timme rosenkrantz (jam sessions) are now located?? anybody knows something about that? are there any discographies avaiable about that historical recordings?

hi, mr. jazzmann,
there are ten versions of "koko" by charlie parker. the one used in the film is the famouse master-take, take 2, from the first session under his own name (charlie parker´s ree-boppers) for savoy, monday, november 26, 1945 with dizzy, thornton aka hakim, russell and roach. i saw the film only once "years" ago and (maybe i´m wrong) but can´t we see the records when the main character (? matt damon) put them on the record player? there is also the original film soundtrack avaiable.
hope that helps.

hello,
i´m a fan of sean jones since i heard and saw him two times in concert a few years ago here in germany in a little jazz club with the frank delle international quintett. sean jones is down beat jazz performance award winner 2000. he has a power that reminds me of clifford brown. at that concerts here in münster (a little town in the west of germany, near the dutch frontier) he was playing wonderful hard-bop (or is the name neo-bop?). if you don´t know him, look for his name. i´m sure he will make it in the future. my wife is a photographer and she took some nice pictures from the concert. there is also a german cd with the frank delle group called "confined freedom" (also jones´ composition) from 2001. (i think his first where he is featured). so, if you have the chance to see and hear him... go! (by the way: he is a good photo motive (especially in action)).
anything to say more? go and hear mr. sean jones!!!
here is a link about sean jones from another list:

There is a dynamite solo by Freddie Webster in the March 1945 Georgie Auld Orchestra version
of 'Co-Pilot'. Dizzy Gillespie was also in the trumpet section but Webster is the one who solos.
This was recorded for Musicraft and was last available on a Georgie Aiuld 'Handicap' Discovery CD reissue.
Just one solo. But a beauty!
'.
hi,
the trumpet solo on the georgie auld track "co-pilot" from march 28. 1945 is definitly dizzy gillespie and not freddie webster! it´s also on the masters of jazz cd mjcd 110 volume 5 in the gillespie serie (media 7). solos are dizzy, auld and tony aless,p,. it´s a typical dizzy solo. you can hear some of his typical signatures.
btw there are more freddie webster sessions with the following leaders (according to bruyninckx discography):
louis jordan 1941
sabby lewis 1944
johnny powell 1947
billy eckstine 1944
billie holiday 1944
and
"it is said that he recorded in the late 40´s with a large band, details are lacking. freddie webster, tp, wade marcus, tb, tadd dameron, arr, (?)"
anybody knows more about that??
is there any chance to get the mentioned cd-r(s) with the "complete" freddie webster?

Yeah...I think the main character is named Sparrow in both cases, although they are two unrelated works. There was another Bird novelization that I can't remember the title of where the character was named "Eagle".
yes, the book is by john a. williams "night song" (1961). the main character was called richie stokes "the eagle". williams the "black balzac" (new york times) writes about "live and dead of a black jazz musician full of pain, indignation and deep liking" (james baldwin).
bird lives or the eagle flies!

hi,
i´m not from sweden but here´s a link to a swedish online shop where you can get the album in question: http://www.ginza.se/
good luck!
the original album was limited to 1000 copies at the time of issue in 1958. years ago i found one original on a fleamarket. later i found out that there is an original handwritten signature of lasse gullin. he signed the 1000 albums.

this short film of charlie parker was shown in a documentary by jan horne from norwegian television in 1990. it shows also the hot house sequence with dizzy and the close up of bird´s face of norman granz´ "improvisation". (i think the entire film was not known in 1990). together with chan parker, harlod jefta (saxist, who can play every parker solo) and harvey cropper (who taught bird to paint in oils) they met in chan´s house in champmotteux. i think this film was (or is) avaiable on the kjazz lable (vhs).
