David Ayers Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Does it *have* to be boxed sets? I guess there are single discs that include interview snippets. Even the famous Eric Dolphy 'after you play music' is edited from an interview. I can think of one unofficial Ornette disc that has an interview (Tivoli, I think). But after that, er....

king ubu Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Lester Young - Complete Verve box (does the Holiday include an actual interview or just that rehearsal disc? I usually just get out some of the music - the dates with Webster, Edison, Rowles, or the ones with Shavers etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 The Charley Patton Revenant box has a disc of interviews - not with Patton, of course. But the interviews with Patton's associates and with H.C. Speir, who discovered Patton as far as as the record industry goes, are pretty interesting. The Charly/Chess Complete 1951-1969 Howlin' Wolf box has 10 minutes of interview material. Milt Hinton's two-disc Old Man Time has almost as much interview as music - about an hour. I love the 13-minute segment of Cab Calloway alumni reminiscing; Doc Cheatham, 50 years after the event, tells Cab for the first time about the night Cab accidentally paid Doc his week's salary twice. To his credit, Cab laughs uproariously when he hears the story. I think Jelly Roll Morton Library of Congress recordings might have some interview material. (Insert wry emoticon here.)

Tom 1960 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Not a box set, but I seem to recall the Charlie Parker in Boston disc on Uptown has a brief interview with Bird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xybert Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 The Max Roach & Cecil Taylor Historic Concerts album has some interview material at the end of disc two, about 16 minutes in total but it's interspersed with music. This album is also a available as part of the Cecil Taylor Black Saint/Soul Note box so technically it's in a box set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
