Uhhhh...no. It is an American band.

Neither Concord or the grey marketeers seem to know the actual order the songs were played in. I wonder if the original tapes exist.

Holy shit! Starting at about the 3 minute mark he goes on and on about Nelson. Thanks so much. He even confirms what i'd heard about Coltrane admiring Nelson-- I'd always thought that was a myth.

I know a bit about how you get things on the iTunes store. Once you're accepted as a supplier no humans are involved on their end so unless someone complains you can put up anything.

No need for sarcasm. But thanks, it's been a long time since anyone called me child-like.

I Sorry, I didn't realize the thread had started so long ago. I'm seriously interested in how it all works. I know that Amazon and Apple offer grey area material (I suspect Apple doesn't know it's doing it) but they can't be victimized by others doing it to them. Universal, on the other hand, is (I think) the largest purveyor of music in the world and holds the American rights to things that other people are exploiting overseas. Since I'm in the US I can't check whether they exploit the law and offer cds from other rights holders and thought you might know.

Uhh, gee. Thanks. This was the first one I've done and I was very nervous about it. YES! What's the tv interview you speak of?

Yes! But who's the singer? (I've already given a big clue.)

I think it's even better a 2nd time because you're not as worried that something terrible is going to befall him.

So they do distribute stuff they don't have a contract on?

Would Universal Europe get in the boot business? Perhaps they represent Concord in Europe.

Wow. That's amazing. So now the only cuts (is that the correct word?) that haven't been identified at all are 2, 6, 8, 9 and 11. They're all pretty obscure though still available except maybe 9.

Uhh. No.

So is everything they offer now in print?

Not exactly his usual tone. He doesn't usually sing. Hint: he's also the bass player. And the fiddler might give a clue. Yes indeed!! They were playing each other's horn. I picked it to cause confusion. I think it's just one guitar and bass but he's a prodigious guitar player. Ry Cooder also used it in the soundtrack to the film Paris, Texas. (Not this version.) You got the time period right and the leader on vibes is not playing his usual instrument. Wow, you're right. I'd completely forgotten that Monk recorded Abide with Me. You'd probably only be familiar with the bass player. But Ed Bickert is. And IIRC the bass and drums are also on the Desmond recordings. I picked some of them for their obscurity (and I think deserving of more recognition) and in 4 cases there are musicians not playing their usual instruments. (Well one is playing his usual instrument but he's also singing.) And three of them aren't really jazz. So you did pretty darn good.

Very close in every sense of the words. Indeed the real thing. Tracks 3 and 4 give a clue. it is Gil and probably no one but a Gil completist like me would have this. I think you can still get it. But this seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth. This was probably the most obscure track.

The food is good at The Jazz Standard. (IIRC from a Danny Meyer's BBQ place next door.) Wish I was there this week to see the Mingus Big Band.

If it is out of print it may be their smallest selling set: I got it a month or two ago and I got number 1704. BTW It's a great set.

The Henry Threadgill is not listed as OOP but it's also not listed as being available.

It was indeed Le Place.

Paris is amazing. The audience hates Trane and he just ignores them. Wynton Kelly is on fire on this tour.

Small club in Montreal. Can't remember name. I had just arrived to start McGill. My cousin, a jazz fan, took me. I remember John Gilmore but not the other horn (ir there was one). Just seemed like jazz to me. ( I already owned about a dozen jazz Lps : KOB, Ellington Indigoes, MJQ plus Sonny at Music Inn, and a couple of Dave Brubecks. I'd gotten most of them from The Columbia Record Club. ) The only thing that seemed weird about it was they played The Christmas Song and it was August.

I think it might have been Gene Autry at the local arena. First jazz was Sun Ra with a quintet (summer 1961).

Around 1982 I met with Jjean-Luc Ponty and he raved to me about how Jaco had revolutionized bass playing. I'm not sure I'd even heard of him at the time but Ponty was definitely convinced (and convincing).

I've got a cd of the Zurich concert, April 8, 1960 (Swiss Radio Days Jazz Series volume 31) advertised as "Officially released for the first time". Actually I think I have cds of the entire tour. The packaging is going to have to be awfully good for me to get this one.
