Thanks for that "advance review", Pete.

Here's a Hank Jones Discography hosted at AAJ: http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/musician_d...phy.php?id=8166 It's a disc-oriented project (as opposed to session-oriented), listing 492 discs so far. Additions, corrections, comments... can be addressed to this Hank Jones thread at AAJBB.

Last friday I bought a bunch of recent RVG's for 7.95 EUR apiece: -Ike Quebec - Bossa Nova Soul Samba -Baby Face Willette - Face to face -Walter Davis Jr. - Davis Cup -Lou Donaldson - Gravy train -Thad Jones - The magnificent Thad Jones -Duke Jordan - Flight to Jordan

Yep, I'm afraid this looks like their new "recycling our catalogue" policy again (as with the Duke Box).

Thanks for the info, brownie. Has anyone cared to compare the tracklist from this box set with what was previously available from Storyville and/or other labels?

Discs received. Thanks! Best regards, Agustín

Storyville sale at Jazz Loft ($ 7.97 & 12.47 per disc) Expires Sunday, October 7th. Good hunt!

Excuse me but besides "Ben encounters Hawk" ... you mean "Coleman Hawkins and Confrères" or "Ben Webster and Associates"?

I didn't know that was still available. Where did you get it? MG Second hand, from a member of this board...

There were two volumes of a thorough Coleman Hawkins discography published several years ago. Compiled by Jean-François Villetard. The third volume never did make it, as far as I know... To my knowledge, Chris Sheridan was working on a Coleman Hawkins bio-discography (remember his great work on Monk and Basie!), but I have no idea of the stage this project is in.

At first I thought you might be referring to the Bayou club recordings, but I see from the literature that Roy and Hawk recorded with Joe Jones ( not Philly Joe) in Buenos Aires June 16 1961. Body and Soul was one of the tunes. These are aparently part of a West Wind CD entitled Jazz Festival in Latin America.. there were 6 tracks, Body was a feature for Hawk, The Man I love for Roy. Love for sale a trio for Tommy Flanagan. The rest of the Cd was by other artists. This may be what you have or some bootlegged verion of it. PD: Okay, I have to ask: did you just KNOW that? I went home and dug up the disc, and that seems to be pretty close. "West Wind 2018" is printed on the disc and there's a little blurb indicating "Rec. at American Jazz Festival in Latin America, 16 Juli 1961 at Teatro Municipale, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil." According to the track listing: 1. Rifftide: Hawkins, Eldridge, Flanagan, Abdul Malik, Jones (Jo, not Philly Joe) 2. The Man I love: Eldridge, Flanagan, Abdul Malik, Jones 3. Body and Soul: same as 1 4. Love for sale: Flanagan, Abdul Malik, Jones 5. Caravan: same as 1, but essentially a 6-minute Jones drum solo 6. Love come back to me: same as 1 The sound is okay, the playing is very enthusiastic, the uncredited liner notes are somewhat surreal. Some blah blah blah, then they end with "Later in his career, bearded like the prophet he was, Hawkins continued handing down his huge-toned jazz commandments until in 1969, ominously taciturn and worn thin from a permanent diet of lentil soup and brandy, he died." From their catalog numbers, and after checking the Jazz Records Label Listings project , I am afraid these are different discs. Here's the cover for West Wind 2018:

(hey, you still there?) was referring to, many moons ago: The Jazz Festivals In Latin America (West Wind 2062) Found used copies for around $60.00 at amazon, but skipped them!

Thanks for all the work and the time your investing. It's gotten to be a fantastic resource that I have consulted many times! Thanks for the kind words. The update is now online at http://www.jazzdiscography.com/Artists/Montoliu/. All the best Agustín

Do any of those books include any picture from March 12 & 13 at the Windsor Cinema, Barcelona?

Thanks!

Thanks a lot, Stereojack. So this Barney Wilen dissertation is wrong, as it lists two tracks from that concert in the Europa LP (Indiana & Now's the time) [see page 111] and this Stan Getz online discography is right. Are there liner notes in the Europa LP? If so, do they mention if "Indiana" was recorded at a "regular concert" from the Festival or at a mammoth jam session that took place the last day of the festival (and that also included Dizzy Gillespie and Tete Montoliu)? Regards, Agustín

Could anybody who owns it confirm the discographical details for the tracks from the 1958 edition of the Cannes Jazz Festival? Thanks in advance! Agustín

I have one by the same called Meditation that is also excellent. Different name, same disc. From my Tete Montoliu Discography at Michael Fitzgerald's JazzDiscography website:
