There are a few still awaiting proper reissue: A Drum Is A Woman Peer Gynt Suite Nutcracker Suite Suite Thursday Bal Masque Jazz at the Plaza Most of these were on French CDs, but all deserve the definitive treatment. I think the three suites are still available on a cd called "3 Suites". Bal Masque was issued without the fake applause as part of the Sony '51-'58 box set. But it would be great to see Jazz at the Plaza as well as a collection of all the singles he did for Columbia after '49. (I've never even heard The Asphalt Jungle Twist.) I'd also love to see a cd reissue of the entire Gil Evans at the Royal Albert Hall. Part of it was on an RCA Lp and the rest of it on Mole Jazz and none of it has been on cd as far as I know. A Drum Is A Woman and Bal Masque are also on the Sony '51-58 set.

Happy Birthday! Hope it's a good one!

I love the version of "A.I.R." that is on the Jan Garbarek - Bob Stenson Quartet's 1975 LP Witchi-Tai-To. (It also has a side-long version of Don Cherry's "Desireless".)

And the Beatles are doing something similar with bootlegged titles from 1963 but via iTunes.

ICP Orchestra is at the Bimhuis on Dec 13,
