danasgoodstuff Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 (edited) In addition to their wellknown BN dates, Woody & Freddie did an all-Brownie one for another label whose name I forgot, similar in personel, concept and quality. And how could we all forget to mention the genisus (?) of the two trumpet thing (even if they were technically playing cornets)--Louis & King Oliver?!

Spontooneous Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 That all-Brownie date with Hubbard and Shaw is "Time Speaks," under Benny Golson's leadership, on Timeless. What's this you say about Louis and King Tolliver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Playing With Fire (Bobby Shew and Tom Harrell) I enjoy this one quite a bit. Bobby also did one with Chuck Findley a few years back that I think was called Trumpets No End. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's this you say about Louis and King Tolliver? that snide remark reminds me there's one track on one of the McLean albums included in the Mosaic set where both Tolliver and Lee Morgan play, no? ubu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 There's a very tasty John McNeil album with Tom Harrell from 1979 on Steeplechase, "Look to the Sky." The Candoli Brothers "Two Brothers" (Hindsight) -- recorded live in Chicago in 1983, with some of the best recorded work by the late great drummer Wilbur Campbell -- is definitely worth tracking down.

Spontooneous Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Forgot about Dizzy Gillespie Meets the Phil Woods Quintet on Timeless. Dizzy past his prime, Tom Harrell not having the best chops day, but still somehow it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 There's this album listed under Coltrane's name, but it's really a group effort: "Interplay for 2 Trumpets and 2 Tenors" Here's Yanow's AMG review: Although generally reissued under John Coltrane's name, the most significant musician on this CD is pianist Mal Waldron who contributed four of the five complex compositions including the original version of "Soul Eyes"; Jimmy Heath's "C.T.A." is also performed. Coltrane teams up with fellow tenor Bobby Jaspar, trumpeters Idrees Sulieman and Webster Young, guitarist Kenny Burrell, bassist Paul Chambers, drummer Art Taylor and either Waldron or Red Garland on piano. With so many soloists present on this advanced hard bop date, Coltrane is only one star among many although he does emerge as the standout. — Scott Yanow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undergroundagent Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Another vote for "Blues in Trinity." It might set you back a bit these days (JRVG only), but it's worth the moolah. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Here are a few more to add to the growing list: Dizzy and Jon Faddis team up on Dizzy Gillespie Jam - Montreux '77 - just the 2 trumpets, Bags, and rhythm (Pablo). KD and Rolf Ericson (trumpet and fluegelhorn) on Scandia Skies (Steeplechase). KD and Allan Botschinsky (fluegelhorn) on Short Story (Steeplechase). Buck Clayton and Ruby Braff: Buck Meets Ruby (Vanguard). What We Live: Quartet for a Day (New World) adds Dave Douglas and Wadada Leo Smith to the trio. The Alternate Blues (Pablo) features additional tracks from the Trumpet Summit (Clark Terry/Dizzy/Freddie Hubbard) album mentioned previously. Also, the Buck Clayton Columbia Jam Sessions feature 2 or 3 trumpets on each date (Buck, Joe Newman, Joe Thomas, Ruby Braff, Billy Butterfield). Even though the groups are large, the sessions are blowing sessions, not big band sessions, so I guess they qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank m Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 You folks all remind me of my former students, for whom history began with their birth. I humbly remind y'all of the two who started it--Louis and King Oliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpet Guy Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Don't forget those wacky "Santos Brothers" from Mexico Have not heard them(would love to),but Steeplechase has put out a few "jam" cds lately featuring 3 trumpets(Wendholt,Gisbert Ballou). A "Trumpet Tribute" on Trip Records--60's jam session recorded in Brooklyn w/Woody Shaw,Blue Mitchell,Kenny Dorham,Bill Hardman,Richard Williams and the less than stellar Walter Kelly.

brownie Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Several duets including Conte Candoli have been mentioned but not one that I enjoy each time I listen to: Candoli and Kenny Dorham on ´The Birdland Stars on Tour´album on RCA.

Big Al Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Another vote for Roy & Diz!!! The excitement on that disc is audible and contagious! And another vote for the Howard McGhee & Fats Navarro date. I can't wait for the Reece Mosaic Select to come out, just to hear Blues in Trinity.

A Lark Ascending Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Here's a great contemporary double trumpet disc: Enrico Rava and Paolo Fresu. Don't be put off by the 'tribute' flavour. Its a thoroughly distinctive recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
