    Our own brownie should know since it's his photography on the Marion. Brown album...

    I don’t have a vinyl copy of the album anymore but I remember that when it came out the blue and red photo was on  front which carried no sign at all. The back cover had the liner notes.

  2. Luciano, the jazz session was recorded on April 10, 1967 at the studio Davout in Paris. The studio closed its doors  a while ago.

    And welcome to this place. It is the best one to discuss jazz with a lot of participants who share an incredible knowledge on numerous related subjects.

    Dear Listener

    I am struggling with the formation of Le depart.
    is there an orchestra playing in Le depart and in Marc et Michel without
    the jazz musicians?
    If so, who conducts it, Komeda?
    Are komeda and Urtreger on the piano together?

      I was at the recording of the jazz music of Le Depart back in 1967 in Paris. Komeda was taking care of the proceedings and not playing piano the day I attended. Rene Urtreger was the sole pianist behind Don Cherry, Gato Barbieri and others.

  4. Already mentioned  here several years ago that I was to accompany  François Postif when he interviewed Lester Young but had to abstain because I had to prépare an important school  examination. My eternal  regrets!

    As for Lady Day,  caught her when she .sang at the Paris Olympia in November 1958. She was not in top form .but I found her beautiful.

    Saw  her also shortly after when she and Mal Waldron had dinner   with Postif and à couple of friends at  Chez Gaby’s near Pigalle.  She was in top form that night.
