James Moody & His Modernists w/Chano Pozo

[Teasing the Korean]

Does anyone know if this early BN 10" LP was ever reissued on 12" LP or CD?

[Chuck Nessa]

CDP 7 84436 2 is the number on my cd. Coupled with the '47 Messengers.

[Teasing the Korean]

Thanks Chuck!

That music must have clocked a bit of mileage on reissue vinyl too.

6 of the 8 tracks are on the "The Beginning and End of Bop" Blue Note LP B-6503 released as early as 1969 (coupled with George Wallington tracks).

And wasn't it in the Japanese King Records "BN 10 Inch LP Collection" 12in facsimile reissue series of the 80s too?

[Teasing the Korean]

How many of the tracks have Chano Pozo?

How many of the tracks have Chano Pozo?

He plays on 4.

[Teasing the Korean]

Thanks. Not to suggest that the rest aren't worthwhile, of course.

I got it when it came out on CD as a double with the Blakey as mentioned. It was really good at the time as I was a staunce Messenger freak and had to have this early messengers incarnation. I have not listened to it much recently...maybe I need to.

I always remembered Tin tin deo..that was on there if my memory serves me right...it usually don't

Those tracks were also on the Classics CD 1948-1949.

My copy is on this - a blue/white Liberty issue. Somehow it appeared (new) in a record store sale in Liverpool in 1979 as a cutout !

That would have been just about when EMI bought United Music and Records Group. I think I've got a few BN cutouts from that period. Warehouse emptying of stuff the previous firm was no longer entitled to sell.

Ha, might well be mine comes from the same source. It has a cutout at the upper spine edge and I bought it secondhand at Mole Jazz in the early 90s.

I think my cutout is on the upper far edge but will have to check. I think I picked up a copy of Lee Morgan's 'Memorial Album' on blue label as a hole-punch deletion that day too.

Amazing how many UK-sourced LPs from the 1970s gravitated to Mole Jazz in the end.
