  1. And the same thing can be said about the 'Renaissance' album on Uptown

    Brownie, I certainly respect your opinion, so I'll have to have another listen. I remember being very disappointed with that album.

    On the other hand, I've heard some tapes of live performance later that year during Eager's "comeback" and some of the are very fine indeed. I seem to remember a burning rendition of "Equinox" from somewhere in England, among others.

  2. This entry from an Oscar Pettiford discography that I found online (sorry, I can't locate the link right now):

    4403 (?) Broadcast from the Onyx Club, NYC. Dizzy Gillespie - Oscar Pettiford. Dizzy Gillespie tp, Budd Johnson ts, George Wallington p. Oscar Pettiford b, Max Roach d.

    · A Night In Tunisia

    Dizzy Gillespie. Masters of Jazz (F) 43-44 vol. 4. - In 4403 Budd Johnson replaced Don Byas. The group soon broke up. OP stayed at the Onyx.

    To my knowledge, this cut was introduced to the world by Phil Schaap on one of his broadcasts.

    Jim - email and I'll hook you up.

  3. -The broadcasts from the Casa Mañana (Feb 20, 1941) and the Ellington-Blanton from Jun 1941 will be coming out in the coming months (when???) on BMG as part of a package of one DVD and one CD. The DVD will have "Symphony in Black", the five Soundies, the 1943 RKO short and as a bonus the eleven minute radio interview for Radio Newsreel of Jan 28, 1941.

    Is that what's on the new "Centennial Edition"?

    any new Blanton is good news!

  4. He is a somewhat-famous alumni of UNC Chapel Hill. I lived in what was said to have been his dorm room my sophomore year.

    That was the year I discovered Bird, and Trane, and Miles....perhaps there was a vibe left in the room?

    Nah...... :P

  5. I know there are some tapes of these in circulation, but I didn't know that any had been issued commercially. Just scanning the webpage I see some under Hans Koller's name, also a few under the NDR Workshop name, which I've never come across.

    I've heard #2&3, they're really nice.

  6. I really like the Stockholm cds. Baker's scatting on "Just Friends" (disc 3) is gorgeous (and I've never liked his singing before). Z haven't heard the Quintessence discs yet, but I would think they are similar, given the timeframe.

    However, the I find the Stan Meets Chet disc much less engaging, FWIW.

    As for the conflict of personalities, I've read much the same as what Jim wrote. From what I've read, beyond his alcoholism Stan Getz was at bottom a mean SOB, and Chet was somebody he could bully. I'm sure that fact entered into the dynamic as well.

  8. I'm with Randy - that box is a terrific bargain. My understanding is that it duplicates the Classics cds. It sounds okay and the music is terrific. I've worked my way through about 25 of the cds so far, and my only complaint is that one of the cds had the wrong sides on it (1935-36 I think) so I'll have to make that up somehow. Still, for less than $50 I can' t complain too much. It's available here:

    Sir Duke Box Set

    for 41.99 + shipping. I like the fact that everything is in chronological order regardless of label.

  9. Wow. Thanks for the heads-up on this one.
