  1. Anyone? Do the original liner notes contain the info I'm looking for? They're not included with the CD!
  2. Gee, reminds me I still got a half bottle of Glenlivet at my parents'!!! Happy birthday, Chuck - and thanks for all the great music you produced!
  3. In an ideal world, everybody would love everybody. (I think) nah, total harmony is the end of it all...
  4. Does anyone have soloists listings for this date? I'd be most interested in identifying the trumpet soloists (the trumpet section consisted of Donald Byrd, Ray Copeland, Idrees Sulieman and Bill Hardman - quite a trumpet section!), but I also wonder about the 'bone players: all solos by Cleveland, or does Frank Rehak (or even Melba Liston) have a spot, too? And the alto sax? They're Sahib Shihab and Bill Graham... who'd be the lead player? I have the Bethlehem 2CD reissue (John Coltrane - The Bethlehem years) that combines the Blakey Big Band album and the Pettiford part of "Winner's Circle" on disc 1 and contains a second disc with a ton of outtakes from the big band session(s). The CD contains new liners (how new I don't know) by Art Lange (best known for longish and boringish liners on hatOLOGY discs) that weren't proof-read and contain some embarassing fluffs (Griffin instead of Mobe on "Tenor Conclave"...) Would be happy about any additional information!
  5. . elyts ni kcab emoc ot gniog si ekil uoy mug tahT asa nisi masa...
  6. Yeah, in an ideal world, everybody would love Hank Mobley (and Lucky Thompson... and Pres!)
  7. Yeah, I guess I need a fact-check or some such... the world can be such a drab place.
  8. and he knows how to drop down from palm trees...
  9. "Poetry" is mighty fine!
  10. yup - scheduled for late May it seems is: hatOLOGY 679 Vienna Art Orchestra A Notion In Perpetual Motion I'll have to get that one. Recently bought "Tango from Obango" (but as a single LP - seems there's a 2CD or 3CD set of that?) Their discography is actually pretty big: http://www.vao.at/v2/display.php?id=61
  11. It was part of this 3CD set: (the other discs are a ballad album with various guest singers, and a "serious" composition album by Rüegg, which I think I played but once or twice) No leads as to where to find the Dolphy disc, alas.
  12. Love the Dolphy disc, like quite a lot most of what I heard by the VAO! The Satie disc (Minimalism of Erik Satie, Hat Hut) is excellent! Most of their stuff is OOP alas (more than a dozen albums on what I think was/is a Universal Austria sub, Amadeo or something like that).
  13. The owls are not what they seem...
  14. but you think Ware isn't? anyway, I think chewy actually meant the thread title as in "jazz album I got for free"

    Geri Allen

    for the Buster Williams disc!
  16. But that would still mean there are but a few dozen left... do these sets sell so slowly that this is no reason yet to put them on the "running low" list? That's sad!
  17. The three marvellous Coltrane boxes from Concord - trying to go through Trane's stuff in chronological order...
  18. Wanted to play some Walt Dickerson anyway... will turn into a memorial listen, I'm afraid. Also Bateman was fine on that United Artist album by Ken McIntyre with strings! My condolences to the family.
  19. Got the "Sonny Stitt Plays Jimmy Giuffre Arrangements" reissue on the American Jazz Classics label today. They don't even bother to state what country the disc was produced in... and the bonus albums is of course taken from the Roost label and hence useless as it's in the Mosaic. But I bet the Fresh Sound disc would have cost more than twice as much at the same store...
  20. Miles Davis - The Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions
  21. Oh, that's sad to hear! But then i guess not even he could go on and on forever. Thanks for all the fine music!
  22. Be aware that the issues run at a wrong speed... so if you care, you better look for it in collectors' vaults, if I'm allowed to say this here.
  23. "Paragon" is a great one! And so is "Waves"! I'd love to see a Select or a big one with Rivers' Impulse sessions (haven't checked what there is, just know "Streams" and have that Trio disc pictured above). Will definitely be interested in another Rivers Mosaic!
  24. Stick-Up is among my two or three favourites by Hutcherson! And I must have mentioned "Mirror Mirror" several times, but it seems not in this thread... it's actually an MPS album, and a mighty fine one.
  25. today at the used store: Lambert, Hendricks & Ross - The Swingers
