chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 (edited) HORACE SILVER QUINTET: The Blue Note, Philadelphia; 2/2/57 Art Farmer (trumpet) Hank Mobley (tenor sax) Horace Silver (piano) Teddy Kotick (bass) Louis Hayes (drums) 1. Cool Eyes 2. Senor Blues 3. Room 608 HORACE SILVER QUINTET: Red Hill Inn, Pensauken; 5/4/57 Art Farmer (trumpet) Hank Mobley (tenor sax) Horace Silver (piano) Teddy Kotick (bass) Louis Hayes (drums) 1. Room 608 2. Doodlin' 3. The Preacher ------------------------ you guys know, from the hank mobley discography website, that these two horace silver events are documated on some sort of reel to reel style tape recording. the guy who has either it, or a copy of it, is in JAPAN. back in the early days of the internet i communicated with him. His repsonses were always very short or terse, every now and then revealing a shred of information, in small gulps. like one sentance per email. finally i squeezed out of him his (i assume) whole mobley list. these items were upon it.

Dan Gould Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 That second recording was a radio broadcast "Bandstand USA", the announcer certainly sounds like Alan Grant. All things considered, sound is just a B because of some interference but still very listenable. The Red Hill Inn was just over the river from Philly in NJ. Best track is Doodlin' because they stretch out a tiny bit more (5 minutes vs 3 for the other tunes). Would be cool to have the Philly recording. Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) okay okay that is disappointing to me in a way that its a radio b'cast, beacuse i want to hear Hank strech out. I've heard the Steve Allen tape, and it is like a slap in the face to hank (to be most blunt): they play avila n tequlia, with hank soloing for .3 of a chorus before an extended art blakey drum solo. nonetheless it still is pretty cool there was Hank, aged 25, on a mainstream national televison program. too bad the guy recording it didn't have a VTR! (video tape recorder) oh ps; u think it was a boris rose-related item. im in love with that man Edited October 24, 2008 by chewy Quote
