Hardbopjazz Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 (edited) Wow, 70 years of some great jazz. I wonder if there is anything left in the vaults that can be issued? Here are three I would like to hear. 1. The Gene Harris Grant Green scratched session regardless how lame it may sound. 2. The Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers session from 1959 with Hank Mobley. Yes I've read th band was high or drunk. I still would like to give it a listen. 3. The Ike Auebec Grant Green session also listed as rejected. Edited November 12, 2008 by Hardbopjazz Quote
BruceH Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Wow, three years younger than McCain. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Blue Note died at 32. Bits keep getting exhumed, is all. MG Quote
WD45 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 I would be interested in hearing this John Coltrane album "Blue Train." Perhaps this anniversary will finally compel them to reissue this session. Quote
Dave James Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 The theme of the recently resuscitated Portland (Oregon) Jazz Festival is Blue Note at 70. It will be held in February at various venues. If you get lucky and you're hanging around the right spot, you might be surprised to see some of the artists drop by for some after hours jamming. Here's the lineup. McCoy Tyner + Joe Lovano Quartet Cassandra Wilson Gonzalo Rubalcaba Terence Blanchard’s Requiem for Katrina Dianne Reeves w/Oregon Symphony John Scofield Patricia Barber Don Byron’s Ivey-Divey Jason Moran Bobby Hutcherson Pat Martino Lou Donaldson Jacky Terrasson Lionel Loueke Jane Bunnett & The Spirits of Havana Aaron Parks Judi Silvano Up over and out.

Dan Gould Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Maybe he'll invite you to the hotel for a sammitch! Seriously though, it astounds me that the 70th Anniversary coming up, when it seems like it was just yesterday that we were all excited to see that Lost Sessions disc. Quote

ejp626 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 I would be interested in hearing this John Coltrane album "Blue Train." Perhaps this anniversary will finally compel them to reissue this session. I hear that Verve has perfected their remastering techniques so that formerly lost sounds, such as the engineer coughing in the booth, have been imprinted on the sessions, so they now sound exactly as they did going down. Fingers crossed that MC will convince Blue Note to follow suit. Personally I am looking forward to the RVG2 (that's Rudy-squared) series to follow. Quote

It's good to see that they've recovered. That's a pretty nice line-up all in all. I was seriously bummed last time around when I missed both Ornette Coleman and Cecil Taylor. Maybe I can figure out a way to at least catch Jason Moran and Jane Bunnett... BTW, I'm with MG on death and (partial) resurrection -_- Quote
