The Magnificent Goldberg Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Prestige did not give this session matrix numbers (nor to Rhoda Scott's "Live at the Key Club"). But there would have been session notes by Esmond Edwards and/or Rudy Van Gelder. I assume (big assumption) that Michel Ruppli would have had access to these notes in compiling the Prestige discography in 1980. The entry for this session reads Light and lovely ------------- PRLP7191, PR7357, PR7407, OJCCD940 Straight no chaser ---------- PRLP7191, --------- PR7407, OJCCD940 Woody 'n you --------------- PRLP7191, ---------- PR7407, OJCCD940 Bingo Domingo ------------- PRLP7191, --------- PR7407, OJCCD940 I'll remember April --------- PRLP7191, PR7309, PR7407, OJCCD940 Billie's bounce --------------- PR7309 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Epistrophy ------------------- PR7309 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Well you needn't ------------ PR7309 ----------------------- PRCD24206 In walked Bud --------------- PR7330 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Land of dreams ------------- PR7330 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Bean-o ----------------------- PR7330 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Robbins' nest ---------------- PR7330 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Our delight ------------------ PR7330 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Theme ----------------------- PR7330 ----------------------- OJCCD1085 Dee Dee's dance ----------- PR7357 ----------------------- PRCD24206 Billie's bounce -------------- PR7357 ----------------------- OJCCD1085 Epistrophy ------------------ PR7357 ----------------------- PRCD24206 But this appears to be a track list of the original LPs. Nonetheless, it MAY reflect the runing order of the shows. I rather think that the Willis Jackson listing, which also follows the track order on the LPs does also follow the playing order. I've added in the current CD issues, just to be helpful OJCCD is called "The tenor scene" PR24206 is called "Live at Minton's" OJCCD1085 is called "Battle stations" - the two tracks were tacked onto a completely different Jaws/Griff album as bonus tracks. All of this material will fit easily onto two CDs. Total playing time is about 135 minutes. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 that would shift my post's "sets": 1) first set 2) breakfast set 3) midnight set 4) late set Makes sense, only why the hell "breakfast set"? if the third set was the midnight set, the first would have been well into the evening, I assume!? I assume that's because that set has been released under that title (now known as "The Tenor Scene"), but still... the whole release practice here seems a bit weird, but I guess that's how it goes with such lengthy live sessions. They had to fill up the "Early" and "Late" albums with one track each from the "Breakfast" to make full longplay albums... but anyway, it's of course great to have that whole recording available on official albums, for sure! Thanks for your help, MG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 I have it on a compilation of all that early 60´s stuff , my wife bought it for me for Chrismas. Great stuff since I sometimes play with a 2 tenor tandem and they´s work on some stuff from that repertory. Well, Epistrophy is very fine.
