flat5 Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 It's been 45 years since the making of this very special night of jazz.

Rooster_Ties Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 (edited) To the best of my knowledge, this material hasn't been collected up into a unified (single) multi-CD issue (box set) as yet -- has it?? When that happens (as it most certainly will, someday), about how many discs are we talkin'?? In other words, how much material is there (total minutes), divided by about 75 minutes per disc. Also, anything unreleased from these dates still in the can?? Edited July 27, 2006 by Rooster_Ties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couw Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 about how many discs are we talkin'?? I made two CDrs out of the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 The 10 tracks can fit on 2 CDs. So, they could make a package like the Monk/Coltrane. However, the Monk/Coltrane had some extra stuff NOT IN THE RIVERSIDE box, so there could be extra Dolphy stuff as well, especially since it's live. My guess is they will find a way to stretch it to 3 CDs. It's definitely long overdue. BTW, does the Monk/Coltrane contain 'Monk's Mood'? Bertrand.

kh1958 Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 I recall there being an LP box set of the Five Spot recordings, released as The Great Concert of Eric Dolphy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 I recall there being an LP box set of the Five Spot recordings, released as The Great Concert of Eric Dolphy. I thought that was the 3 "In Europe" lps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flat5 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I have not heard two of the more obscure tracks. I first had the music on three Prestige records. I have heard it said that the "regular" pianist was Jackie Byard. Mal was subbing for him on July 16. I think the music would have been quite different if Byard had played the gig. He is a very different rhythm section player and soloist from Waldron. (Duh?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Byard asked off from his regular gig w/Maynard Ferguson and was denied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
