For an archival-quality collection-document of a major artist's work, I'd like to hear even the "weaker pop material", because "weaker pop material" has been the source of some of the most delightful performances imaginable. And if/when that's not the case, oh well. I'm an adult, I don't let that ruin my day. The notion that "they" need to protect me from inferior music mixing with excellent is almost as degrading as is the assumption that I'll thank them for doing it, that I want to be "protected".

So, there's a total of 60 cuts, right? Is there any place that has all of them?

Spent the weekend with this, liked it a lot, this was what Olu Dara was a lot about when I first heard him with Threadgill in Chicago at the Underground Festival, you want a lot harmonic movement, go elsewhere. You want a lot of flurryburry specific or non-specific notes, hey, plenty of other people for that. Etc and so forth. But if you want somebody who has looked at the trumpet from all sides (And the serpent horn from whatever angles there are to look at the serpent horn) and at this particular point decided that multiphonics built of of pedal tones and other ways of using it (them) as first and foremost a heralding instrument with all sorts of timbral colorations in the service of coding the heralding, then Oly Dara from this period, and on this record in particular, that's gonna be your guy. And of course, when is Phillip Wilson ever not gonna be your guy?

Out of one, many.

See, you ARE the champions!

First impressions?

What makes them scary? Other than maybe Gene Krupa's time not being particularly loose at these tempos (and not just here)? Doesn't keep anybody off, that's for sure!

where can I go to get all 60 under one roof?

The two BN Santos albums are worth enjoying. They got a little sheen to them, but not anything cheap or vulgar.

Compilation, almost certain. The Candorrillan label Frisked Founds says thusly: After Hours With Sarah Vaughan captures the sumptuous 1949-1952 sessions. Complemented by orchestra leaders including Percy Faith and Mitch Miller, Vaughan delivers top notch interpretations of Just Friends, I Cried For You, Street Of Dreams, Black Coffee and other standards. Four bonus tracks not found on the original album are included here. https://www.freshsoundrecords.com/sarah-vaughan-albums/6194-the-complete-columbia-albums-collection-4-cd-box-set.html Flickkerpedia gives the LP release date as 1955, so hey. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/After_Hours_(1955_Sarah_Vaughan_album) Add Joe Lippman, Norman Leyden and Paul Weston to that group of arrangers as well. Per that discography, the FS issue is woefully short, focusing as it does on LPs. Seems like there's a lot more than is on there, has any body released it all, legit or otherwise?

It does, it does indeed. And since this is not something like an old record that could be found on LP, CD, 8-Track, 4-Track, Quad LP , cassette, Mini-Disc, etc. the generally passable code language of LF: Bob Newlandthal's Greatest Hits Vol 37 (pt 2), format unimportant will not work here. Nothing will, really, not for this one. Love gets slippery when it's wet.

Since my baby left me, I found a new place to dwell...

This one has it all - escort services, Shemp Howard, chair rides, a diving horse, and Isham Jones.

The show was based out of Philly. Some sites say that Dick Clark worked as an announcer on the show, reading the ad copy for when Tootsie Roll was the sponsor. This I cannot confirm. But if true, that might explain a lot of things, Dick Clark coming out of Paul Whiteman's TV Teen Club.

Yes, I would no doubt write in "Not Hank Mobley".

a strange, strange movie, available free on Prime Video. Not necessarily good, but strange.

Hell, if you believe the stories, Duke stole from his own band, as did Frank Zappa, as did Miles, as did so many people, if you believe the stories. And then there's Bob Dylan, jesus, there's always Bob Dylan. I'd never say that I believe Paul Simon to be the most ethical person in the music industry, but I'd just as surely say that I believe him to not have a pretty solid skill set of his own, up to and including taking a good song and making it better, as well as his own. Irving Mills' estate doesn't get what all the fuss is about.

No problem, and here were are in The Thread Of Enchantment!

Hell, while you're at it, round up a bunch of homeless people and get them to vote. Worked for the Rajneeshees.

Peter - would you like this to stay here in Reissues, or would you like it moved to the Live forum? I would love to see Charles McPherson in either Santa Fe or Taos. Great places both.

Bob Cooper.

Bill Mathieu, palate in the service understanding the gig. You go Bill Mathieu, you go. Speaking of palate, this is, visually, worthy of Hitchcock (musically too, if you feel so inclined...). I hope this clip lives forever and is never found in better form, becuase it is perfect just like this. Whoever was in the control booth for this one mixing the viual (the director, right?) was a genius.
