mracz Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Yes, an amazing discovery. Fru and Brew! I look forward to this. And how about not only the Hasaan session, but the Don Cherry and Steve Lacy trios, and the outtakes from the Monk/Blakey Jazz Messengers session...

jazzbo Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Might or might not be able to get it from Worlds Records earlier, that's the usual scenario. http://www.worldsrecords.com/cgi-bin/storeR.cgi?cart_id=09-25-11.13092&phrase=Fruscella&specific=artist&format=any&x=9&y=9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I placed an order with them (for some other titles) the same day I placed my Amazon order for the Fruscella. We'll see which gets here first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Placed my order for it (along with a dozen or so more from Fresh Sound/Blue Moon) today directly from Fresh Sound. Last time I ordered from them their shipping was pretty quick. Was a while ago, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 This is now up on the UK distributors website. It's cheaper than Amazon and includes shipping. Unfortunately it wont be in stock until later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Got my copy today and it is being spinned several times... this was previously listed as a Brew Moore date with Fruscella playing on several tracks. Fruscella is in fact soloing on all of them. Beautifully relaxed playing with a number of tunes that are variations on the 'Blue Lester' theme... Sound is very decent but rather flat, in typical Atlantic audio fashion. No audio credits and a couple of erroneous photo credits. Liner notes by Jordi Pujol who does not indicate how he got hold of the copy. Main thing is that the session is available now and we can enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Ordered mine directly from Fresh Sound on Sunday, Paypal'd at the same time, got a shipping notice from them by mail yesterday (Monday) and UPS tried to deliver today (but nobody home so will receive it delivered to my office address tomorrow - Wednesday). Can't complain about speediness of shipping and am looking forward to giving this one (and the others) a listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 In most cases when I ordered from Fresh Sound the discs arrived at my door no later than two days after their shipping in Spain. Great service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Indeed - same here too. In fact, they e-mailed me on Monday, advising me of delivery on Tuesday, and if it hadn't been for my absence I would have received it that day. Am just spinning the Fru'n'Brew disc. Very, very nice, and worth the wait. I wonder at what stage plans for releasing this session were abandoned. The titles of the tunes read very much like (non-definite) working titles, but the music has a fascinating after-hours club atmosphere about it that needs no further processing IMO.

Niko Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 in michael fitzgerald's discography it says "Private tape still exists. Reportedly, Fruscella does not play on all selections. Specifics unknown." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Check Michael Fitzgerald's site every day for a discographical update ... if he wrote that, that's the information he had. After listening, he will revise this entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually saw that in the book edition of Tom Lord's Discography (under Brew Moore). I find the listings in the Bruyninck books too complicated for my aging brain and did not check there...

AllenLowe Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) listening now - 1) nice session but not quite tip top Moore. Even Fruscella, who generally is fine, has a few hesitant moments. But let me say something important, which is that Bill Triglia, who was a friend of mine, is one of the best pianists of that era. Listen to his work on this. 2) Interesting quotes from two musicians I knew in the 1970s, both with whom I was speaking about Fruscella, though at separate times: "Tony was playing that way BEORE Miles, and he also had it together before Miles." - Bill Triglia (see above) "I knew Fruscella! He was doing that Miles thing BEFORE Miles was doing it." - Sir John Godfrey (drummer) this is highly recommended; the musicians sound a little off balance, maybe tired or under-rehearsed (or stoned?); though even Triglia sounds a little hesitant at times and he was straight as an arrow; whatever the cause, this is very precious stuff. I love the '50s in jazz. Edited September 29, 2011 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
