Well it turns out there was at least one such record released , this 10-incher , which was probably issued right after Bird died in '55 : Birdland 6001 ( a 10" 78 rpm ) used this label :

Chops-wise I think it's hard to make the case that his early playing ranks with early Hubbard , Byrd or Morgan . IMO his later playing ( starting with the '61 Savoy side ) is better both technically and stylistically . Just out of curiosity , why couldn't your comments be appended to the existing Hardman thread ?

Hanna must have been a self-effacing sort - on that debut version from the Richard Davis album , during the intro to the tune , Hanna announces , " A Child is Born " , " Thad Jones " .

Was it on Honeydew? Yup . All Reece originals , 'cept for that Exorcist theme . I haven't heard it , but FWIW , I usually listen to Reece records for the sidemen as much as the leader ; in this case the supporting crew includes Beirach and Grossman , which doesn't galvanize me one way or the other .

What tosh - as if the disregard for considerations of illegality could only ever be a function of self-interest rather than simply a recognition that the normative authority of law derives entirely from extra-legal moral considerations . In the case at hand , many intellectually curious people , having completed a good faith assessment of those considerations , feel themselves in no way morally obligated to abide by the current intellectual property regime as it applies to music . Your comment , in denying the possible legitimacy of such a stance , reflects an absurd legal absolutism ( not that the comment's ad hominem nature isn't reason enough to dismiss it ) .

Don't recognize it , but I like it . FWIW , I think the e-piano sounds more like a Wurlitzer than a Rhodes . Whichever it is , I do dig that wah-wah effect !

I just remember the label as a cheap reissue label (of the type to delete one tune). Did Howe do any original recordings for them? I couldn't tell you . All I have to go on is the technical boilerplate on Kimberly's rear sleeves which includes the following statement , " The total efforts of Kimberly engineers , headed by Dayton Howe , have achieved a sound acclaimed as superb by critics and record enthusiasts throughout the world "

As you've probably noticed , the cover looks like one of those Enoch Light Command covers . It shouldn't come as a surprise then that what you've got here is one of those stereo show-off records , in this case featuring all kinds of 'exotic' percussion with lots of overdubbing ; the Mastersounds providing mere background . A good sounding record ( Bones Howe worked for Kimberly ) , but not a good record .

All in a day's work for a cryptojazzologist -_-

Thought I had already posted these upthread , but apparently not , so here they are : I don't have any of these ; would like to hear all of them of course . Free the never-reissued Savoys !

Unless you think the US government is going to go belly up, bank deposits (up to $100K) are FDIC insured. Mutual funds are not. If the mutual funds are held in a brokerage account they are insured up to $ 500,000 by SIPC . Excess SIPC coverage ( provided by third-party insurers ) up into the millions is available from the major brokerages and fund companies as well . Additionally , mutual fund investors are protected by the fact that fund assets are held in trust and are thus legally separate from the mutual fund company , and by the fact that mutual fund managers must be bonded .

For the curious , the early John Towner Williams recordings for Kapp and Bethlehem are out on a Fresh Sound double-CD . The music in the samples doesn't much interest me ( too brief to really judge , I know ) ; the septet/octet tracks might be worth hearing for the sidemen however .

What , you don't think a guy with a Marsalis avatar would like Braxton ?

Do you have this one? I have always been curious about it - I have the other Mainieri Solid State LP. Like you , I've only got Journey Thru an Electric Tube , which IMO , is a record that in its best moments approaches Burton-Coryell territory , but one that , given the psych-rock vocalizing and fuzz guitar , I find that I'm not in the mood for all that often . Insight , being a quartet date , might cleave more closely to a Burton-Coryell dynamic and as such might be of greater interest to me , though I must admit to never really having been knocked out by Joe Beck's playing . I had both records back in the day. Liked "Insight" better. The Burton/Coryell comparison is apt, it's a quartet date, while "Journey" is a mixed bag that works only partly. After finally getting ahold of Insight I agree with you that it's the better album . While Journey Through An Electric Tube has its Duster-like moments , Insight is a lot closer in style to that great album , free as it is of the hippie lyrics and more rockish elements of Journey Through An Electric Tube . Thankfully , Joe Beck is not in his I-wanna-be-a-rock-guitar-hero mode , and plays concordantly throughout . The Australian bassist has a couple of Slam Stewart-like moments , but is otherwise fully integrated into the group sound . In sum , I'd recommend that fans of Gary Burton's late Sixties doings check out both Mainieri Solid States , with priority given to Insight .

Murphy's is the face of someone who might have broken bread with Eden Ahbez on occasion...

Side one of What's New ? has already been reissued twice ( once on Macero's own label , and once by Stash ) , leaving the five Bob Prince compositions on side two as orphans . Max Harrison wrote a favorable review of them , and that , in conjunction with the personnel , is enough to have me hoping they will somehow find their way onto CD at some point . For now , we'll have to make do with the Prince arrangements to be found on Lonehill's reissue of Saxes Inc. .

FWIW , I'd rank those the least of Farrell's six CTI sides , largely because of Joe Beck . I'd rate Moongerms and Outback at the top , followed by Quartet and Penny Arcade .

I've never regretted paying full retail price for this one : I dig that one too , but it should be noted that it's ~ 50 cents per minute , not $2 per minute . Mixed Bag's Tribe date is another one worth the bread .

Actually it is on CD . Lonehill has put it out combined with one of Most's Bethlehem sides . See here . Not surprisingly it's a needle-drop , but 'vinyl-artifacts' are only really apparent on one track . Good sound otherwise , considering the vintage . Any flute or clarinet fan would enjoy this I think . A rare chance to hear Bob Dorough the instrumentalist as opposed to vocalist , as well .

What recording studio was used for Sonny's Dream ?
