doubleM Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 I just found this Inner City release yesterday in a used bin. It was the first time I'd seen or heard of this one. It's from a few different sessions, and rehearsals from 1952, '53, '65, &'66. I'm really diggin' it! And I was happy to see that the tracks weren't in the Proper box. His left/right hand independence was amazing! Roy Haynes kicks it up a notch on a couple of tracks. Has this ever made it to cd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleM Posted May 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 I couldn't access AMG when I made that first post, now that I have...they review it quite favorably, but refer to it as a "hard to find lp". But I will gladly take Jazzbo's word for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couw Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 are there other, more easily obtainable ones than of this type? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 (edited) are there other, more easily obtainable ones than of this type? That one is a relatively inexpensive Japanese reissue (¥1,500 / €12 / $14 plus shipping) and can probably be easily obtained from Hiroshi Tanno. By the way, Hiroshi not only takes PayPal, but also cash (¥ / € / $) and money orders. Edited May 11, 2004 by J.A.W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couw Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 so, is it worth the hassle? The different sessions/left-over approach does not necessarily promise to make for something coherent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the Japanese EastWind LP way back in my vinyl days, and that's too long ago for me to be able to give it a or now; I do remember liking it, though. Edited May 11, 2004 by J.A.W.

brownie Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 It's a highly recommended album. Lot of interesting aspects of Tristano's music is explored on that one. Nothing left-over there. Just a very good gathering of Tristano's previously unheard tracks. Still enjoy the original LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Nelson Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I've still got the 1976 EastWind vinyl slab -- it provides revealing 'bookends' for the Mosaic T/K/M box. And the RVG engineered tracks with Peter Ind and Roy Haynes are happening -- for that matter, all 10 tracks are vital and for real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 My vinyl is on Inner City. If you are interested in Tristano you'll want this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleM Posted May 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 After giving this a complete listen I can whole-heartedly say... "Pick this Shit UP"!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mule Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I've had the Inner City lp for years, but I've never seen it on cd myself. Great record! A must for Tristano fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
