Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Are there any fluteless tracks on either "Sultry Serenade" or "Great Ideas of Western Mann"? Quote
Stefan Wood Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Wassermarrer, the flute too fruity for you???? Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 31, 2003 Author Report Posted July 31, 2003 Hey watch yourself or I'll send you a wall-size reprint of the 'Push Push' cover for your new apt. Quote
P.D. Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Herbie is credited with only taking his flutes and a bass clarinet to both these sessions. On Sultry he plays the bass clt. on Lazy Bones Great Ideas is out of my reach at present but I suspect he took it out of the case for one tune at least. Quote

On Sultry he plays the bass clt. on Lazy Bones Great Ideas is out of my reach at present but I suspect he took it out of the case for one tune at least. I thought Herbie plays bass clarinet exclusively on "Great Ideas of Western Mann"? Maybe he pulls the flute out of the case on the bonus track but not the original LP tracks? This is on my want list because I dig bass clarinet. Later, Kevin Quote
P.D. Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Yep just checked my albums.. it's all bass clarinet on the LP Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted August 1, 2003 Author Report Posted August 1, 2003 Okay, thanks for the info folks...that "Western Mann" cd looks good to go. Quote
mikeweil Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 (edited) This is bass clarinet all along, even the bonus track, one of the most relaxed records I have. Edited August 1, 2003 by mikeweil Quote
mikeweil Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 (edited) BTW, if you dig bass clarinet, this is the greatest, imho: Edited August 1, 2003 by mikeweil Quote
WD45 Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 I would like to give a hell yeah to that Buddy DeFranco Blues Bag recommendation. If you can find it on the Vee-Jay 2-on-1 with the Yusef Lateef album, the sound is better than on the later release by Koch Jazz. You get Lee Morgan, Blakey and more. Buddy really tears into the big stick on this. The only trouble I have with it is the simple fact that he did not record with B cl more often! BTW, the bonus cut on "Great Ideas..." may not even have Herbie on it. I have rad this from a couple different sources. Emusic has the album. If I recall, "Sultry Serenade" is about 50/50 flute/no flute. IF you dig bass clarinet, you might dig this with Tony Scott picking it up on a couple tunes, I think. Quote

I thought this might be the Blues for Tomorrow that showed up as a bonus track on lots of Riverside LPs.. features Ray Copeland, GiGi Gryce, Hawk, Trane etc.. if so it will sound a bit out of place on a Herbie Mann bass clarinet album.

Fantasy put the wrong bonus track on the Mann CD. There is a Herbie Mann track on the Blues For Tomorrow album, called A Sad Thing, but instead someone accidentally added the title tune by an unrelated group. Very sloppy quality control. Don't know if they have issued corrected copies afterwards. Quote
mikeweil Posted August 4, 2003 Report Posted August 4, 2003 Yes they have corrected the error. Only the first pressing mistakenly had the title track of the Blues for Tomorrow anthology. I sent the CD to them and got a replacement without a problem. The executive at Fantasy assured me they do waht they can to prevent such errors, but they keep creepin' in at places where noone expects them too. Quote
mikeweil Posted August 4, 2003 Report Posted August 4, 2003 IF you dig bass clarinet, you might dig this with Tony Scott picking it up on a couple tunes, I think. Is this currently available? Quote

I just got this CD only to be a little surprised to hear Hawk and Trane on the bonus track. Quote

David Ayers Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 So is it OK to talk about Great Ideas of Western Mann in this thread or is that no longer relevant? Sheesh, those guys in the Funny Rat thread are the same - just can't stay on topic. Quote
sidewinder Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 BTW, if you dig bass clarinet, this is the greatest, imho: The UK Joy deep-groove LP is the one to go for.. Fine, fine LP. Quote

Mike - Over in another thread on Herbie Mann, this CD was brought up and I brought up the fixed version of this CD. Did Fantasy send you a new CD with corrected artwork or just a new CD with "A Sad Thing" on it? Did they fix the disc artwork as well or did they just remaster the CD with the right tack and use the same CD label? I cannot find any pictures of this CD with the corrected bonus track anywhere on line. FWIW, I have never seen or owned a corrected version so I wonder how many there are out there. All of the ones for sale seem to be the original (incorrect) pressing. Quote
mikeweil Posted May 19, 2020 Report Posted May 19, 2020 My OJC CD has corrected tracklists on the inlay card and booklet. Quote
