Besides "Ten to two blues", retitled "After hours" in non-Spanish reissues, and already mentioned, there´s another disc with Tete Montoliu that is at least as good: "It´s about blues time" .

Up once more! We´re working hard on the discography lately. A major update will be available at Mike Fitzgerald´s www.jazzdiscography.com in a few weeks.

Up once again! We´re working hard on the discography these days. A major update will be available on-line in a few weeks. Stay tuned!

From a bit later (1968), this MPS disc (a favourite of mine, and not only because Tete Montoliu leads the rhythm section) shows a beautiful contrast between Webster and Byas´ styles:

If interested the truly excellent Hep 2CD "Band box shuffle" is the place to go IMO Yes! Best sounding release of the 1929-32 recordings of the Moten band. And IMHO next step should be the two discs on Frog ("Justrite" and "Kansas City Breakdown"), from the earlier period (1926-29).

I will attend the presentation and open colloquim on FNAC (Callao, Madrid).

"The definitive crappy sounds of Basie´s Columbias"

Word! (though for Basie nuts like you and me.... a Complete Basie on Columbia -leaving aside those Andorran products- is due!!!!)

Try: FNAC España DiscMedi website JazzMessengers And a small advice: avoid the Helix releases. To my knowledge, they are non-authorized reissues that sometimes miss some tracks from the original releases, as you can see in my Tete Montoliu Discography at Michael Fitzgerald´s "JazzDiscography" website. There will be a major improvement in the discography in the next months. Stay tuned! Best wishes, Agustín

Thanks for your input, brownie. Is this the cover for that Hampton LP?

No. The GIITH HighNote CD contains live recordings coming from Jerry Newman´s acetates. Definitely, Classics are not focused on this kind of material.

The only Ellington-related disc I´ve found on ADES label is Bolling Big Band Plays Ellington Black Brown and Beige -Adès ADE 671- (1990)

Somebody asked this on another list: I don´t have New DESOR, and Timner´s "Ellingtonia" doesn´t list issues. No trace of any Ellington release on ADES in the online sources I´ve checked. Thanks in advance, Agustín

This could be a start (from BMI website): http://repertoire.bmi.com/writer.asp?page=...rytype=WriterID

Yes! I always use the program function of my stereo when I play the JRM Victor Centennial box-set.

I strongly recommend Allen´s book. It´s a very refreshing view of the earlier years of jazz, that has piqued my curiosity on many obscure musicians. A superb complement to the usual jazz encyclopedias.

From http://afgen.com/joe_turner2.html:

From John Edward Hasse´s "Beyond Category" (story is very similar in "Music is my Mistress"):

I´ve just sent Mike details on this session, from my BMG France CD. Do you also have the original issue (that I think it´s Swing M 33.341 as that´s the cover included in the inner sleeve of the CD)? Does it include the same 6 tracks? Was it released on 1955? Questions, questions...
