  1. Yes, that's the one. On Hyena/Thelonious Records! Very good concert (1961 or 1965)!
  2. Totally missed out on this Trema vol. 3 release Did not pay enough attention to it when this was released. So many Monk concerts came out around that time and the majority of them were plain reissues. That vol. 3 looks like the real thing! Trema was a label that was part of the Europe 1 radio station company. The Monk March 1965 concerts were organized by Europe 1!
  3. The Young Tuxedo Brass Band 'Jazz Begins' (Atlantic, stereo)
  4. Joyeux anniversaire, Larry
  5. What BFrank said... As for the May 13, 1961 concert at the Olympia there was intially a double CD released in 1992. A third CD came out in 1999. This one: The Club Saint-Germain gig was in December 1958 (I was there ). It came out as 3 LPs, then 2 CDs. The Japanese reissued it as 3 CDs that copied the original LPs.
  6. I don't trust the March 7, 1965 date given for the Olympia concert given on the 'Monk in Paris ' CD from Hyena. The tracks are from the April 18, 1961 Olympia concert that was originally on the Monk Complete Riverside Recordings box. Joel Dorn who released the Hyena CD might have had an explanation for the wrong date... Of the four Monk concerts in Paris on March 6 and 7, 1965, the only genuine release was the Trema/Europe 1 double CD. This one came out with another erroneous date. It listed the concert as from May 23, 1965!. The exact date was March 6, 1965. Monk was not in Europe in May 1965. Hope this helps
  7. Don't think it's the same recording. Seems I had both back in the day. There's Touching and Blood with the Roling cover, and a Jazz Life pressing of Blood which has the same catalog number/label. Definitely the same music. Then there's a Polydor Blood which is different music and yet another jacket. The Polydor Blood is generally refered as 'Paul Bley in Haarlem' and looks like this:
  8. Dave Frishberg 'You're a Lucky Guy' (Concord)
  9. That's right! My idea of a Mosaic Boswell box was very hypothetical!
  10. No sanctification for Mosaic here. Just the thought that Mosaic would have unearthed unreleased material (it if exists) and make a very carefully assembled complete box. Nothing wrong with the Storyville boxes I have acquired so far but they are basically assemblage of previously released items.
  11. Peter Bernstein's presence alongside Sonny Rollins is excellent news. Should bring a lively bonus to the music!
  12. Obituary in The Washington Post.
  13. Wasn't this mentioned in a previous thread? In any case, he went back to his native Texas to look over his ailing mother. He played locally from time to time. He returned to the scene in December 1977 when he recorded the album 'Crossings' (with Ron Carter and Philly Joe Jones).
  14. Eddy Louiss 'Orgue, Vol. 2' (America)
  15. I was hoping Mosaic would do this! Will gladly get the Storyville box. Listening to the Boswells is a make-you-happy experience! Love the Sisters
  16. Here is the cover of the 'new' reissue of the Miles Davis soundtrack to 'Ascenseur pour l'Echafaud' (the first release of the ten-inch Fontana France LP looked exactly like that); Four more reissues from the series: Have not seen any other releases from the series!
