monkboughtlunch Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 (edited) Anybody have this set? It's on the "Definitive Classics" label. Is this a legit release or bootleg? How's the sound quality--from the master tapes? And is this a radio show with an announcer talking over the music? Disc: 1 1. Four on Six 2. Twisted Blues 3. Impressions 4. To When 5. Jingles Disc: 2 1. Girl Next Door 2. Here's That Rainy Day 3. 'Round Midnight 4. Full House 5.

brownie Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 This was from a concert that Wes Montgomery's quartet gave at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris in March 1965. I attended that concert! I think the concert was broadcast by the French national radio ORTF. Tapes were 'borrowed' by the people who were releasing those Byg albums of French radio concerts in Japan (and elsewhere). So the concert soundtrack was first released in Japan, then was reissued by Affinity, the english label. All vinyls. There was a further CD issue of part of the concert on the France's Concert FCD label that issued a number of concerts with the authorisation of the government-owned French INA archives until a number of musicians complained about the FCD issues, sued the producers and won their case! Sound is very good. Can't remember a voiceover on any of these. Very nice music! If you have no issues with the Definitive label... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolff Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I won't buy from Definitive. Check out the 'public domain' Blue Note titles while you are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
