In November, Storyville will release a new live album by the Dexter Gordon Quartet with Tete Montoliu (& NHOP & Alex Riel), recorded at the legendary Copenhagen jazz cava Montmartre during the summer of 1964. The first single is now available at different streaming sites: https://orcd.co/cheese-cake Definitely, this "Cheese Cake" is different from the one included in volume 2 of Dexter in Radioland Steeplechase series. So, Dexter Gordon fans, you're in for a treat! As for Dex's naysayers... just keep interpersonal distance!

This was unearthed in 2013 (IAJRC Convention in K.C.), but hasn´t been available until now. Session details in Peter Losin's Charlie Parker discography: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- February 6, 1941 (1 item; TT = 3:28) Unknown venue, Kansas City MO Private recording (Acetate) (B-) Charlie Parker (as); Bernard "Buddy" Anderson (tpt); Orville "Piggy" Minor (tpt); Harold Bruce (tpt); Joe Taswell Baird (tb); John Jackson (as); Harold Ferguson (ts); Bob Mabane (ts); Jay McShann (p); Gene Ramey (b); Gus Johnson (d); Joe Coleman (voc) 1 I'm Getting Sentimental Over You (inc) (G. Bassman-N. Washington) 3:28 Opening theme, vocal chorus, Parker solo, vocal (fade out) This promotional recording was rediscovered in 2012, and the master is in the John B. Tumino Collection at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Although the tune is incomplete, it includes a beautiful 32 + 4-measure solo by Parker at a relaxed tempo. A version of "Margie," with Joe Coleman's vocal and closing with a laconic eight-bar Parker solo, was also recorded on this date. http://www.plosin.com/MilesAhead/BirdSessions.aspx?s=410206 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Losin's is only mistake (minutiae!) is the date this recording was unearthed. It was 2013, and not 2012, as confirmed by our board member Fernando Ortiz de Urbina in his blog (well worth to be checked!): http://jazzontherecord.blogspot.com/2013/11/newly-discovered-recordings-of-charlie.html

Air Time is a favourite!

Got those two Jass sessions in the Lonehill 2-CD reissue, paired with the other Red Allen-Hawk session from the fifties (Ride, Red, Ride In Hi-Fi, on RCA-Victor, also reissued as World On A String by Bluebird in the early 90s): Lonehill 2CD set: Bluebird CD reissue of Ride, Red, Ride in Hi-Fi: Then there's the Vik reissue for this same disc:

Hope it’s all fixed now.

What happened, Brad? That's good newz anyway!
