So, I am listening to the record tonight. Side 1 features a blues played in a few different styles, including dixie, by a small jazz combo. Side, 2, more of the same. They are now finally getting into the swing era. OK, now we are getting into bebop. Now, some cool, with flute playing blues in a slower tempo. Now, some Horace Silver funk/hard bop. Overall, nothing too earth-shattering. Anyone into jazz enough to want this book in the first place would probably have known about most of this stuff already. Still, I'm glad I held onto the record.

I hear you. Most of Les Baxter's exotica albums were not issued on CD from the master tapes, but became available through grey market CD releases sourced from vinyl. Eventually, Universal/EMI released them as downloads from the master tapes, so I bought those from Qobuz.

Well, downloads are different than streaming. Once you buy the download, it's yours, and you own it. I have bought lossless downloads of albums that were never released on CD or LP. Not my first choice, but it's better than nothing.

Great article. I liked this sentence: "Yet the experience of art is, above all, an experience, a part of life, and, just as the arts are more than mere nutrients, the medium is more than a delivery system: it has an aesthetic and a psychology of its own." (Italics mine.) We have some younger friends who can't understand why someone would own so many LPs, CDs, books, and DVDs. I like knowing that a certain title can't be pulled by a streaming service or somehow revised to make it more palatable to contemporary tastes or mores. The physical object is a link to the era in which it was produced. And I like the fact that I am keeping things out of the landfill. I'll take the physical media any day.

Looks like it is the same Paul Tanner! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Tanner

I heat ya. I mean hear.

Did you mean "hearing" a reel-to-reel, or "heating," as in baking a master tape?

That's the one!

Thanks for clarifying!

When I was teaching myself about jazz in middle & high school, my brother gave me this book, A Study of Jazz by Paul Tanner & Maurice Gerow. It came with a 7" 33 1/3 record. I somehow managed to hold on to the record - I was going through 45s and it was in one of the (highly disorganized) cases. The book is long gone. In googling the book, I remembered that I had the version with an orange cover with a profile pic of Miles. It was apparently the third edition from the late 1970s. No idea if the book was updated between editions. I would imagine it would have stayed true to the examples on the record. Wondering if anyone else had this book & record combo, and if you have any memories of it. I remember going through the book and playing various examples, but I don't remember much about the record. I also wonder if this is the same Paul Tanner who invented the electro-theremin. I plan to spin the record this weekend to see if I have learned anything over the past 45 or so years.

Oh, and I also have the two volumes, on one CD, of the Martial Solal Trio on the French Vogue box set. Spinning this now.

In addition to the amazing Breathless, which I referenced 7 pages and about 15 years ago, I have the following: Martial Solal European All Stars 1961 on Telefunken (which I ages ago shared with a member who no longer posts here) An Italian, probably budget, LP in the I Grand del Jazz series Trio in Concert on US Liberty Vive le France, Vive le Jazz on Capitol's Dimensions in Jazz series. Still haven't picked up Stress, which has long been on my want list. One of these days...

Irving Fields made it to 101!

I don't think so, but there are several of big band jazz albums that pay tribute to the concrete jungle. I file them in the crime jazz section, because that seems to be the most logical place, based on how my mind works (or doesn't work).

You don't consider those to be jazz/swing?

Phil Moore - New York Sweet (Mercury) Larry Elgart - The City (MGM). Written and arranged by Bobby Scott. Soul of the City on Solid State is fantastic!

Would late-1950s/early-1960s jazz film scores - or, more accurately, tie-ins - qualify? For example, do you know Mundell Lowe's Satan in High Heels? It is fantastic. Like many US "soundtrack" albums of the period, it is not the film score, but rather a straight-ahead jazz album, more or less, that expands on some themes.

Thanks. Just trying to better understand.

Well, I made that distinction earlier, and it sounded like you wanted to expand the criteria to include things outside of swing, but if swing is your thing, then I will be more selective in my suggestions moving forward.

Dick Grove - Little Bird Suite (Pacific Jazz, 1963)

Sauter/Finegan were a real mixed bag. Sauter wrote for Goodman and Finegan wrote for Miller. The two teamed up in the early 1950s and created a studio band that recorded for RCA, and later UA. They did a lot of corny throwback swing stuff, but interspersed with modernist stuff. There has never been a good compilation of theirs. I would love to compile one for Sony/BMG, depending on how much the job pays, but I'm sure Sauter/Finegan are not high on their priority list, if anyone there even remembers them at all.

Well, speaking generally, it can range from 1950s studio projects like Sauter/Finegan or Pete Rugolo, to Quincy Jones, to Stan Kenton, to bands/arrangers working in the 1960s such as Oliver Nelson or Gerald Wilson. For starters. I'm talking more or less classic big band lineups with rhythm, at least 8 brass, and 5 reeds. These are the same as or similar to classic big band lineups, but the music had moved beyond swing to something more modernist. And then there are extended big bands that added French horns, woodwinds, and/or mellophones.
