Rooster_Ties Posted April 7, 2008 Report Posted April 7, 2008 10, maybe closer to 15 years ago, I had a crazy double disc compilation (of mostly or all(?) unreleased tracks), that included a cool remake of Rawalpindi Blues from Escalator Over The Hill. Anybody remember this?? Don't have this release anymore (lard only knows what happened to it), but there were a handful of interesting tracks among a lot of less-than-interesting ones. Other clue -- there was a "music box only" version of some tune, maybe a standard (Monk?), or perhaps another tune by Carla. Come to think of it, the whole thing might have been some tribute to Paul Haines. (Or maybe not, my memory of this thing is pretty minimal.) Anybody remember this thing?? Quote

Man with the Golden Arm Posted April 7, 2008 Report Posted April 7, 2008 That cut for Bruce's burbling bass and Pullen's unbelievable knuckle runs is always a favorite when trying to entertain open eared company after they have been properly libated. Totally different and a much bettered take than the Escalator version. Has to be one of my all time desert island one offs! The rest of that disc is mostly drivel and one that I see from time to time in the used stores for probably less than the screen printed type-oed jewel box is worth. Quote
