From the Baltimore Afro-American 1972 Hank Mobley and Charles Davis sat in with Sonny Stitt. That was really something! from Art Simmons "Paris Scratchpad" in JET 1968 New Yorker Wilson Driver Jr. (electrical engineer) ran into saxist Hank Mobley strolling along Blvd St. Germain. Mobley is currently appearing at the Chat qui peche. fascinating game!

another big fan of PC on arco here, e.g. on Coltrane's Prestige albums i recently discovered Henri Texiers early solo albums, Varech and Amir, much more accessible than expected... (don't know where in the world this link works:)

if you got 5 wrong, you probably haven't seen this great youtube video (monaco remembering the phone call)

despite what has happened in recent years, the libertines are still my band of the decade... What a Waster Time for Heroes

8/12 (including 7, didn't get 8 and 10-12)

Happy Birthday, Bill!

How is this proof enough? The track you're referring to did not appear on that album, but it appeared on a Horo anthology album, which is also easily "needledroppable". ah, had misinterpreted "unreleased track" on the blog... then it is indeed not proof enough... does sinesio's name appear on the cds?

(this is not the horo webpage? but) the fact that the griffin album (which hasn't been mentioned here yet?) contains an unreleased track is indeed proof enough...

sure sounds like Oleo to me...

the whole line-up of that Ferguson band is surprising imho (Dunlop, Ford, Greenlee, Ellis, ...); playing it now... Maynard Ferguson - trumpet, conductor Don Sebesky - trombone Slide Hampton - trombone Charles Greenlee - trombone Jerry Tyree - trumpet Don Ellis - trumpet Chet Ferretti - trumpet Jimmy Ford - alto sax Wayne Shorter - tenor sax Willie Maiden - tenor sax Frank Hittner - baritone sax Joe Zawinul - piano Jimmy Rowser - bass Frankie Dunlop - drums

Bill Carney?

i was thinking of "true jazz sideman gigs with some exposure", something like being the second horn player in a quintet, or as a player in a big band but only if there is a solo here and there... still Plas Johnson?... my first thought was Wayne Shorter but i'm sure others have many more...

the album titles for items 8-11 need a correction... (?) and you should make column G a bit wider because at least with my browser it can't be adjusted...

Yes! The first name that came to my mind when I saw this thread. He must be up there. Don't think so - Sonny probably made more albums as a leader or co-leader than most anyone else (possible exception Blakey) but comparatively little as a sideman. And it's sideman appearances that put a musician on top. MG i could imagine chet baker having more leader albums than stitt? wonder who the horn player with most jazz sideman sessions is...

!Happy Birthday!

here's a first taste of the horace silver set... (senor blues, with pictures) btw, they offer free streams, mp3 downloads for 8$ and lossless (flac) downloads for 10$... http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/the-jazz-mes...ly-04-1959.html

playing the Art Blakey now (Mobley, Morgan, Timmons, Merritt) - was this previously available? thanks for the heads up, really looking forward to the rest!!

more info from here: http://dearbornmusic.com/cart/jazz/shepp-a...prod_27242.html seems these reissues are not one LP per CD Shepp, Archie - Mariamar 1 MARIAMAR 13:41 2 TRES IDÉIAS 7:36 3 THE MAGIC 10:03 4 SHEPP’S MOOD 8:22 5 BODY AND SOUL 8:31 6 TROPICAL 8:56 Total time: 57:09 ARCHIE SHEPP, tenor & soprano sax CHARLES GREENLEE, trombone CICCI SANTUCCI, trumpet IRIO DE PAULA, guitar ALESSIO URSO, bass AFONSO VIEIRA, drums Rome, Italy, October 16 (tracks 1-5) & September 28 (track 6), 1975. This set consists of Archie Shepp’s complete session accompanied by a mixture of Brazilian and Italian musicians plus trombonist Charles Greenlee, recorded in Rome, Italy, on October 16, 1975. It is issued here for the first time ever on CD! This was the second out of three sessions recorded by Shepp for the Italian label Horo, which were subsequently issued on the albums Jazz a Confronto #27, Body and Soul, Mariamar and The Tradition. While the first three albums contained the results of two sessions (those of September 28, 1975 and of October 16, 1975), The Tradition included a single Rome session taped on October 12, 1977. The session of October 16, 1975, included here in its entirety, produced five titles (tracks 1-5 of our CD), which originally appeared on the albums Mariamar (“Mariamar”, “Tres Idéias”, “The Magic” and “Shepp’s Mood”) and Body and Soul (“Body and Soul”). The latter album also included “Dogon”, by Shepp and his American group, recorded on September 28, 1975 (the three titles produced by the group on this date can be found on our companion volume Lybia (Atomic Records 76811), and “Tropical”, the fourth title taped that day. As “Tropical” was performed by the exact same formation as the October 16 session, we have included it here at the end of this CD for the sake of continuity. __________________________________________ Shepp, Archie - Lybia 11/09/09 1.

The fourth title from that session, “Tropical”, featured Shepp with a mixture of Brazilian and Italian musicians plus trombonist Charles Greenlee. As this group would record the complete October 16, 1975 session, “Tropical” has been included with that date on our companion volume Mariamar (Atomic Records 76810

sound samples and possibly some more information here: http://www.honestjons.com/shop.php?LabelID=17094 those shepps sound gorgeous...

thanks for gathering all those fine pictures... on the label's website there are full sample tracks even of many unavailable albums... other one's which seem to be currently available are pepper adams and ben webster with the georges arvanitas trio (two distinct albums...) have cut my current wish list down to these three (comments welcome!): ted curson - pop wine mal waldron/johnny dyani - some jive ass boer raymond boni - l'oiseau, l'arbre, le béton too bad, i missed the dizzy reece this time again... only have two of their albums, dexter gordon/arvanitas and chris woods/arvanitas... especially the gordon album is recommended, don't have it here but it's a very long cd with, say, 25 minutes of bonus tracks, and a fine quintet featuring trumpeter sonny grey plus arvanitas/sampson/saudrais sound samples from the freddie redd sounds excellent (that one is available it seems, as is the jaki byard, the thollot and quite a few more) their website http://futuramarge.free.fr/ has anyone ordered directly from them?

here's the richard carpenter trivia thread http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...c=8224&st=0

forgot the dexter gordon, that's a good one, too... haven't heard the don ellis, but that's another complete album... the edelhagen is indeed fun, though TTK might enjoy it more than i do... unfortunately they didn't continue their series of hard bop reissues from earlier this year in the later batches...

be aware that walkin' does not belong into this series, it has a rhythm section of horace silver, pery heath and kenny clarke and different horn sections including the great lucky thompson and dave schildkraut... if you don't have it, miles' round midnight on columbia, also with the first quintet, is one to get... and there is of course an endless list of worthy dates featuring philly joe jones... e.g. the early coltrane albums with garland/chambers/jones...

these releases have been in the stores here for a few years now (often as the only jazz releases in stores with crappy selections btw) many are compilations but not all; that dizzy gillespie is a fine one, his 1968 live big band album for MPS, as are the johnny griffin "night lady" (quartet with boland, woode, clarke), and the two freddie hubbards...

Michel Roques Charles Tolliver Charles Tolliver would never have searched for Tolliver without the list, so thank you! (Thompson and the others are all either in the Video or the Audio list, i believe...?)
