Gheorghe Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 I have that LP, it´s very fine music. I think I remember they also played one ore two Chick Corea compositions on it. I remember the liner notes and the statement by Lee when he was invited to do a European Tour with a nonet and he was kinda puzzled and answered: A nonet ? That´s difficult ! How about a quartet and a quintet, or three trios ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 I think I haven´t listened to that LP for years. Good idea to go back listening to it. If I remember right, one of the tunes was "If Dreams Come True". And another big point ! Sy Oliver was the arranger of the stuff. Rite now while I´m posting that......, I think I hear it in my head, the "voicings" you know, I think it was the way Sy Oliver makes the stuff sound.....

JSngry Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Sy Oliver, or Sy Johnson? Probably not Syl Jonson, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 JSngry: Thank you ! I noticed my mistake after posting. Listened to the album yesterday, and noticed that maybe I had written "Sy Oliver". Of course I mean Sy Johnson. Don´t know how I could make that mistake.

mikeweil Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I suggested many years ago on this board that those 4(?) LPs of the Konitz Nonet scattered over several labels would make a great Mosaic Select ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Glad you found a copy. I had a copy of the Japanese LP and sold it to someone here - can't remember whom - years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
