brownie Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 You can find the two 12/21/47 Metronome All Star cuts on Capitol Jazz Classics Vol. 6 - All-Star Sessions. I have it as Capitol M-11031. No idea what the original Dutch cataolg number would be, Have the LP right in front of me: It's Capitol 5C 052.80 806 What are the titles left off of Strictly Bebop, and are they any less dire than the ones that were included? Just wondering it they're on the upper or lower "You Stole My Wife, You Horse Thief" side of the bar... 1949: I Can't Remember (vcl Tiny Irwin) 1950: Carambola Honeysuckle Rose (vcl Joe Carroll) "Carambola" was/is on the Capitol "The History of Jazz" comp "Vol. 4 - Enter The Cool" (Cap T796) that was around in several iterations/pressings from the original issue of the late 50s at least up to the mid-80s (I bought my copy as a Spanish facsimile reissue in 1983) Those three are included in the 7CD set 'Dizzy Gillespie Complete Big Band Studio Sessions' from United Archives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swinging Swede Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 All of these tracks were also released on Chronological Classics CDs. The 1947 Metronome All Stars session is on Nat "King" Cole 1947-1949, and the big band sessions on Dizzy Gillespie 1949-1950. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Berger Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Anybody else think the Diz'n'Getz session is mildly disappointing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat5 Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Not me, I think we are lucky to have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milestones Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 I have also liked what I've heard of the Dizzy/Getz records; there seem to be quite a few of them. Some will think the partnership sounds odd. I guess you don't know Getz very well if you don't know he could be a smoking bop player at times. If not already mentioned, I recommend the album by Bebop and Beyond that pays tribute to Dizzy, with Dizzy on most of the tracks. His singing and moving trumpet solo on "I Waited for You" should not be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasing the Korean Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 I like the early Afro-Cuban stuff, and also the early-mid-60s stuff with Lalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Anybody else think the Diz'n'Getz session is mildly disappointing? I don't! If the session was a contest, I'ld say: WINNERS ALL! Same goes for another Diz-Getz album (this one's even better!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcello Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 These Ronnie Scott's recordings from 1973 are very nice indeed: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Thanks for the heads-up on this Ronnie Scott's archival stuff, Marcello. I didn't know that this music had been released.Definitely something that I'm going to check out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
