It was somehow acquired and reissued on cd by the family on the briefly revived "Teagarden Presents" label back in 2005 with "Dame Blanche" listed as a "special bonus track" and an uninteresting generic cover. I like the original Verve cover a lot better! Quote
jazzbo Posted April 8 Report Posted April 8 I believe you are correct on all accounts there. I have the mono and stereo LPs and the Teagarden family release on cd. I'm a Teagarden nut. Quote

I'm a Teagarden nut. Oh, so am I. A hopeless completist, but then, I used to play the instrument, and I can still remember listening in utter awe to Big T's version of "St. James Infirmary" in the Armstrong Town Hall Concert. I tried doing the waterglass thing and quickly realized that I'd have to reinvent the instrument completely--change all the positions--to play it. I just shook my head and decided to let *him* do it!

That's amazing that you tried that. Dan Barrett is the only one I know of that really succeeded at that. Tea was an astonishing musician. One of those dearest to my listening heart. Quote
