Well, listen and you'll hear (as with the mystery sax on the Stitt). Still an outstanding set!

Oh, just found this now - Discogs has a separate entry that explains the note that this 2025 CD was mastered in 2015: https://www.discogs.com/release/21709789-Pony-Poindexter-Live-At-The-Domicile Looks like a promo release if that's indeed the cover.

I think he does @mikeweil - you'll get mail shortly so you can update responsibly.

Not sure how this relates ... finally got my copy (released 23 July 2025): They get the year right this time ... the only fault is that it's on the short side (29 minutes). Poindexter also sings a bit (on all tracks except "So Danço Samba" - full lyrics on #1 and #2, just a bit at the end of #3), which the credits fail to mention; Hammer is on organ on #1/2, and on piano on #3/#4. Going from Mike's discography, all but "Moanin'" seem to be new additions repertoire-wise? Track timings on the CD are: (not actual music, no stopwatches harmed etc.): 8:11, 5:46, 8:28, 6:50 (some applause is included) Pics taken from here: https://www.discogs.com/release/35685829-Pony-Poindexter-Live-At-The-Domicile-1968-Vol-2

Only got the 1961 Paris date last year, and it's right next to the player - indeed a great addition to the collection! And yep, it's been a while since we started out here 😉

It's on backorder (the 2021 one, couldn't find a new entry) - but I'm trying my luck, thanks.

Halfway through and loving it! Relaxed atmosphere, great playing by Pepper who get's fine support ... sound is decent (drums and piano too low in the mix), not too bad really. In the band intros on Disc 2 however, Pepper announces Al Neil as the pianist ... no mention of Neil anywhere in the booklet though. https://alneil.vancouverartinthesixties.com/music

He's great on the two Ed Blackwell albums on Enja as well ... I fell in love with his playing as a kid, hearing his solos on "African Marketplace" again and again - one of my mom's favourite records, and now one of my own favourites.

Anyone in Europe got these? I keep getting mails about delays, by now delivery is scheduled for March to July. Guess I'll stop my billionaire sh*t shop orders and try elsewhere...

Apologies for being so slow @JSngry - I've just checked my CD (the "Elektra Masters" digipack from 1933) and there are no arranging credits for the bonus tracks whatsoever. And while some of the bonus tracks are mentioned in the new liner notes, there's no real info there, either. For the main album it's Lubbock on #1 & 4, Clayton on #2, 7 and 9, Evans on #3 & 5, and Simone on #6, 8 & 10.

I love her cover of "Sign o' the Times", closing the bonus tracks portion of the previous CD version.

Several sets with clear trays here, all bought directly from Mosaic. No idea why they do this, but I really can't be bothered. ECM often (even mostly I think, but still not always) does the same. They sometimes have tray cards with coloured insides, but they use clear trays with just blank white insides as well.

Very sorry to read this. I've been out of touch for a while, but he was most generous in sharing his knowledge, his photos, and in tracking down many great CDs for me in Paris' well-stocked second hand shops.

Great news about the 1969 concert! Someone should release Stuttgart 1966. SWR Jazzhaus would be the obvious choice, not sure they're still active though.

Enjoying this a lot!
