I also found this misleading but if you read carefully... "This 1963 duet recording with guitarist Dell Staton was one of only 2 albums Phillips made in the almost 20 years period after JATP. " this refers to 1957 to 1977 so that it seems to be at least more or less correct.

re Cinderella: He released another album in 2002, see here which was apparently never really easy to get hold off, (reading my old posts it apparently had Gers Yowell on sax and Doug Yowell on Drums), by now, all or most of it made it to youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/numdud/videos?view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=0 (discogs also suggests that he played on quite a few albums as a studio guitarist)

a 13 year old thread... the LOC has a copyright claim by W. Milton (Milt) Jackson for a tune with that title from 1957... but, of course, that doesn't prove that this is what they recorded... (link)

Are there any box bargains currently available?
Niko replied to GA Russell's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
@BigBeatSteve: isn't that what the series of the Fremeaux sets does? -
here is a more direct link (and that was the site)

there's apparently one more session of a similar band including Brigham, tracks 17-20 on the Crown Prince Waterford Classics CD (available on Spotify) 1949.06.04 -- US: California: Los Angeles - recordings for King - (Charles) Crown Prince Waterford, Harold Land All-Stars (Dave Froebel Brigham, William Doty, Harold Land, John L. Jackson, Stanley Joyce, Leon Pettis)

Universal and Capitol/Emi are the same by now, right?

Here's a copy of the McFarland discography from the wayback machine: https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20110504165837/http://www.dougpayne.com:80/gmdisco.htm#atbanddtss combining the links here http://www.jazzdiscography.com/fitzgera/links.htm with the wayback machine, one can probably come up with more (but I didn't manage to get the Szabo discography, for instance)... looking at that list of links, it's sad how many of these pages are now gone...

until a few weeks ago, you could have ordered it directly from the label at a more than reasonable price (10 Euro incl shipping)... but with Terrones gone, I somewhat doubt that this is still possible (even though the webpage does not indicate anything...) At least, you can listen to a sample track there... http://futuramarge.free.fr/

that's apparently the version from the 1956 Vogue Sessions http://attictoys.com/lucky-thompson-discography-1951-1956/

here are a few links regarding Rotterdam. This is not an explicit program so there is always the chance that nobody noticed Burrell and Green - but I am tempted to conclude that only Kessel was present (as part of the allstars) for this concert http://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/view?cql%5B%5D=%28date+_gte_+%2201-01-1969%22%29&cql%5B%5D=%28date+_lte_+%2231-12-1969%22%29&query=%28barney+kessel%29&coll=ddd&identifier=ddd%3A010957039%3Ampeg21%3Aa0038&resultsidentifier=ddd%3A010957039%3Ampeg21%3Aa0038 http://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/view?cql%5B%5D=%28date+_gte_+%2201-01-1969%22%29&cql%5B%5D=%28date+_lte_+%2231-12-1969%22%29&query=%28barney+kessel%29&coll=ddd&identifier=ddd%3A011238461%3Ampeg21%3Aa0181&resultsidentifier=ddd%3A011238461%3Ampeg21%3Aa0181 http://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/view?cql%5B%5D=%28date+_gte_+%2201-01-1969%22%29&cql%5B%5D=%28date+_lte_+%2231-12-1969%22%29&query=%28newport+in+rotterdam%29&coll=ddd&identifier=ddd%3A010957055%3Ampeg21%3Aa0220&resultsidentifier=ddd%3A010957055%3Ampeg21%3Aa0220 in April btw, the announcement had been Tal Farlow and Barney Kessel http://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/view?cql%5B%5D=%28date+_gte_+%2201-01-1969%22%29&cql%5B%5D=%28date+_lte_+%2231-12-1969%22%29&query=%28tal+farlow%29&coll=ddd&identifier=ddd%3A011238271%3Ampeg21%3Aa0178&resultsidentifier=ddd%3A011238271%3Ampeg21%3Aa0178

I have no clou in any narrow sense of the word, but given that we are talking about a double LP. and that there's a second soundtrack album by Duke Jordan (no less) used in the film, the film would take forever if it used all the Monk music - and the vast majority of films are too long but they don't take forever
-
I just remembered that there exists an excellent online discography of Bennett: http://jazzdiscography.com/Artists/Bennett/index.php It's a bit outdated (2011) but certainly better than going by the information on Spotify and iTunes
-
The Beatles are not easy at all btw... the question whether Magical Mystery Tour is an album or a double EP that was later reissued in corrupted form is arguably the most contested question in discography (see e.g. an extremely long thread on the Hoffman forum)
-
ina.fr is actually as easy to use as youtube or google (there's a search window at the top, you put in a name, press enter... some videos (beige symbol) are behind a paywall but you can see the beginning... for instance, a search for Art Blakey may lead you here http://www.ina.fr/video/I09286002/art-blakey-et-les-jazz-messengers-whisper-not-video.html at the top you can switch between audio and video (when both are available)... a search for grant green just leads to some strange item which has 21 seconds, doesn't play on my computer and says Stan Getz on the frontpage - so it's probably not essential...

The Music of Kurt Well Returns to Germany
Niko replied to paul secor's topic in Classical Discussion
:-) one very simple reason for his earlier works being more popular in Germany than the later ones is that the lyrics are in German rather than in English (and they're good)... we did sing Mack the Knife in school with some regularity (which means the composer clearly isn't forgotten), but when we sang stuff in English (which didn't happen often), it usually was Lennon/McCartney rather than Weill. So I would say: The later works are comparatively low profile in Germany, but this is partly due the fact that the early works are high profile. I'd be surprised if September Song was as well-known to the general US population as Mack the Knife is to the German one (today). -
LF Hank Demano LP- Freeway label FLP1
Niko replied to Stonewall15's topic in Offering and Looking For...
just to answer Big Beat Steve's question: The Hank de Mano album in question is not the one you posted but rather this one, The album you linked to (from 1963) was just reissued on a Fresh Sound twofer with another de Mano (or deMano) album from 1966. -
And a follow-up question... would anybody know whether one of the trumpeters in the third picture is Cal Massey?
-
medjuck wrote that 13 years ago... the Coltrane reference confirms what he wrote (Cannonball missing due to illness, being replaced by Coltrane on alto), citing Downbeat as a source, apparently Adderley was ill for about 8 weeks ca mid-February to mid-April 1959
-
Not exactly on topic, but I just stumbled across three new-to me photographs of Coltrane on alto here. Comparing with the Coltrane Reference, this is the Joe Webb Big Band with Big Maybelle in the second half of 1946 including Coltrane, Webb (leader), Rudolph Pitts (drums) and (up to some point on this tour) Cal Massey. The article says that the pictures were taking at Joe's Playhouse in Jackson Miss., saxophonists are from left to right Emmit Patterson, Criss Williams, Coltrane and Louie Judge (Muhameed Habeeballah).

Can't really check it out right now but it seems that same channel has a few unissued Grant Green tracks, even though not with Gene Harris https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJcWXaSyAKQKT5k9IoB_nhQ/search?query=grant+green

Don't want to rush anybody, but the first review is out... http://www.jazzenzo.nl/?e=3592 (in Dutch, roughly, it seems to say that the first session (with the Jacobs brothers, including Summertime) is great, that the second one is ok, and that Mobley is unfocused on the third session except in the first and last track, and that sound quality is excellent in the first two sessions and a bit worse in the third)

Jacques Crepineau it is http://www.radioscope.fr/grilles/inter/inter1978.htm http://www.regietheatrale.com/index/index/donateurs/jacques-crepineau.html

"[Mr. Brainwash] was a proprietor of a used clothing store, where he began as a security guard, and amateur videographer who [...] "evolved" into an artist in his own right in a matter of weeks after an off-hand suggestion from Banksy." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Brainwash The wikipedia entry makes it sound like "Airbrushing over a photograph - 1 hour, paints, beer and tools - $100." is a more accurate description of the education Mr Brainwash went through to become an artist who can occasionally sell stuff above 100000...
