wolff Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 What Blue Note cover photo(both front and back) was done by a member of the band? If there is more than one I aplogize, as I suck at trivia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolff Posted July 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 You are right!! 10" BLP 5020 The one I'm thinking of is from much later(after 1960). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolff Posted July 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 (edited) Just a wild guess -- one of the Ike Quebec records featuring Milt Hinton? Not as far as I know. Let's make this a little more interesting. Prize to the winner! You have to guess the one I have in mind. Your choice: A couple nice Cuban cigars. Burn of one of my Mosaic sets(your choice..the Hodges LP only is a good one). An LP from my collection. I have a couple doubles that I was going to sell or we can decide on another one. Phillip, if you are into cigars or LP's, PM me. Edited July 9, 2004 by wolff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Billy Cobham is a better drummer than a photographer. Both of his photos on 'Serenade To A Soul Sister' are out of focus. Way out of focus! Francis Wolff would have done a better job with both eyes closed B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Fitzgerald Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Indeed, thanks for this. All right - in the spirit of good karma, I'm going to present the next round of jazz trivia (and it doesn't have to be strictly Blue Note). Name the artists who recorded AS LEADERS for not one, not two, not three, but ALL FOUR of these labels (before 1980). Blue Note Prestige Riverside Savoy Label subsidiaries count, but later reissues on purchased labels or leased sessions do not. Clearly labeled co-leadership (more "and" not "with") counts, but "no" leadership doesn't (y'know, like a collective blowing session). So we understand - Donald Byrd makes the triple, but not the home run: Blue Note, Savoy, Prestige (The Young Bloods with Phil Woods, for example) - but never Riverside. The only Byrd that could be claimed is the Gigi Gryce Jazz Lab date, but Byrd doesn't get co-leader credit on that the way he does on say, the Columbia Jazz Lab albums. Or maybe the Pepper Adams 10 To 4 album - but it's still a "with" not an "and." OK? By my reckoning there are TWO such artists. First one to nail BOTH names wins. One entry per contestant, all entries must be made on this thread, no private messages, no emails. The winner gets a choice of: 1. Set of three promotional postcards: Perry Robinson (act now and I'll get Perry to autograph it for you), Maria Schneider, and Anthony Braxton/Signal To Noise 2. A jazz magazine from the magic grab bag (could be IAJRC Journal, Down Beat, Jazz Times, Coda, Jazz Journal International, Jersey Jazz, and more) and the chance to carry on with the trivia quiz. Take your marks - Ready? Steady? Go! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Fitzgerald Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Bingo - we have a winner. Milt Jackson and Dexter Gordon. Congratulations - that was pretty quick, too. The Gigi Gryce Blue Notes were leased from Vogue. The Monk on Savoy was Gigi's session AND it was for Signal, not Savoy. The Blakey on Savoy was originally on Elektra. Drop me an email, Joe, and we'll sort you out. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
