Lee Konitz "Plays" Japanese CD

[chitownjazz]

Can anyone help me with more information about this Japanese import, "Lee Konitz Plays"?

Lee Konitz Plays at Amazon

[Chuck Nessa]

Seems to be the Vogue material from the early '50s.

Thanks Chuck.

The full session (recorded in Paris in 1953 with Henri Renaud, Jimmy Gourley, Don Bagley and Stan Levey) is also available on this Vogue/BMG reissue

[Big Beat Steve]

A fine collection (and not all that overpriced).

And the music from the other two 10" Vogue releases is nice to have too for those who are into this kind of early 50s European jazz as the 10" originals usually go for big money on eBay (the Japanese buyers' syndrome and their fondness for "Eurojazz" again ...).

Thanks for the info!
