Good to know I still can identify this stride piano evergreen and one of my favourite compositions ever! But still, I need to identify who's playing. Already double-checked with some famous versions (Wellstood, Sutton...) and no positive. Yet...

#9 is track 6 from this disc: https://www.discogs.com/es/Rufus-Reid-Trio-Perpetual-Stroll/release/817911

I would humbly still keep stating it is, with subtle variations in the main strain, and also different intro than the original. Eager to discover who is playing!

The song in track 1 is obviously the one in side A from this Victor 78 rpm . But track 1 is not the original Victor recording by the composer, neither any of the two Associated Transcriptions solos. I will try to identify who's playing later. Excellent starter!

Hopefully it should be temporary.

Thanks for your input. Much appreciated... and qualified indeed! Certainly, quite irritating cd-filler, not only on Scrapple From The Apple.

Yes. Solveable, but still, a mistake.

No trained ears to ascertain whether it is soprano AND tenor on those two tracks? (links to youtube included for easiness of access to the music) For me it's clear, but I would like to have a second qualified opinion.

This is how this concert now looks like in my TM Discography. I have identified some mistakes in the instrumention listed in the Radio France files that I was provided with some fifteen years ago. No instrument specifics in the booklet from the Elemental Music 2-cd release. Further confirmation by more trained ears than mine would be much appreciated, particularly on soprano AND tenor sax on tracks 10 and 11. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: February 12, 1988 Location: Grenoble Jazz Festival, Grande Salle, Le Cargo, Grenoble, France Label: [radio broadcast] Barney Wilen (ldr, ss, ts), Tete Montoliu (p), Ricardo Del Fra (b), Aaron Scott (d) a. 01 L'âme Des Pòetes - 9:11 (Charles Trenet) b. 02 Billie's Bounce - 7:38 (Charlie Parker) c. 03 'Round Midnight – 8:20 (Thelonious Monk, Bernie Hanighen, Cootie Williams) d. 04 Summertime - 8:22 (George Gershwin, Dubose Heyward) e. 05 It Never Entered My Mind (Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart) f.

Up for January fresh air! (we all need some fresh air through these troubled times!!!)

Any help from our British forum members?

LF a reasonably priced copy of Radio France RF 9401 cd, issued in 1994: Thanks in advance, Agustín

Listening to Fats Waller home recordings with Eubie Blake, JPJ, The Lion... originally issued as Ristic 22 & 23 with restoration by the great John R. T. Davies, and recently reissued for the first time on CD by Sounds of Yesteryear. This is music of the utmost importance, from an historical perspective, and soooo beautiful.... but the work done by the latter label is barely professional from a technical point of view, and the presentation so 'ugly', that I would gladly ask for a refund and stick to the cd-burn I received from a fellow stride piano collector many moons ago.

Got it many moons ago and have enjoyed it ever since.
