However, J&R still has them for $6.99 I've preordered the Stanley and the Lou. I have the prior releases of the Freddie (which I like a lot) and the Horace (which didn't do much for me).

bertrand Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I love the 'no tour dates' for Wayne. Does anyone at Blue Note ever check out www.imnworld.com? Anyone going to catch Wayne in Philly on 3/28? I'll be there. Back to the thread at hand. I hope they fix this session once and for all. Bertrand.

Soul Stream Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Why can't we get the extra cut on this thing???!!!! Another cut lost to the vaults 'cause BN is asleep...

Swinging Swede Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Probably just a botched ending, maybe with the musicians laughing, and then packing it up and going home. Nothing that would have left a Charlie Parker take unreleased, but Cuscuna simply doesn't release stuff like that, even if it's great until it breaks down. I'm reminded of take 4 of the blues Parker's Mood (take 5 was the master take). It's great for 2 minutes and very different from the master take. Then Parker hits a bad note, and the take breaks down in laughter. But what's there for those two minutes is wonderful, and I wouldn't want to be without it. For all that Cuscuna has done as a reissue producer, stuff like that unfortunately remains in the can when he has his say. I'm sure that when there's a rejected track from an otherwise successful session, it's a botched ending or ensemble, maybe a soloist hitting a really bad note at some point, but nothing that makes the whole track uniformly bad.

I'm not so convinced. In the past "rejected" has meant several things. One of which was....oh, that's actually good. Once it was listened to. Here's an example of another Donaldson missed opportunity Lou Donaldson Quintet Blue Mitchell (tp) Lou Donaldson (el-as, vo) Charles Earland (org) Jimmy Ponder (g) Leo Morris (d) Rudy Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, November 6, 1968 tk.1 Brother Soul (alt. take) Blue Note B1 31883 tk.2 Brother Soul Blue Note BST 84299 tk.3 Snake Bone Blue Note 45-1943, BST 84299 tk.8 Say It Loud, I'm Black And I'm Proud - tk.10 Caravan Blue Note BST 84299 tk.12 Summertime - tk.16 Red Top unissued * Various Artists - The Lost Grooves (Blue Note B1 31883) * Lou Donaldson - Say It Loud! (Blue Note BST 84299) * Lou Donaldson - Say It Loud c/w Snake Bone (Blue Note 45-1943) When "Say It Loud" was reissued, neither the alternate of Brother Soul was included or the unissued Red Top. That's a very short album time-wise anyway and the omission is a drag imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Is the sound fixed? The sound of this RVG is in my opinion very good (especially Spaulding sounds great) and there aren't the glitches that were in the previous unfixed cd.
