Third or fourth or maybe even fifth favorite Silver front line but I am sure I am in on this.

When will the CD be available for pre-order?

Blue Note doesn't delay the CD. It's also available for pre-order... for $19.98 for a single CD!

In this day and age, putting a $20 price tag on a CD is ridiculous. Next they'll complain that no one is buying CDs anymore.

[Peter Friedman]

It is always a large treat to have more recordings by Horace Silver issued.

Yeah, that's just silly.

I am hoping that Amazon will get it for less than that. But right now they're only taking orders for download/streaming.

DeepDiscount and ImportCDs will likely be substantially cheaper.

Wouldn't necessarily count on that. The Joe Henderson CD was similarly overpriced no matter where you looked. Hard not to feel like this is related to them having such success getting people to shell out for the Tone Poet LPs.

I’m not the biggest Silver fan and realize this makes me an exception but the personell and song selections got me interested.

[JSngry]

It should be a nice supplement to the Emerald records.

Good point.  Even CDJapan is coming in at $20 for this Silver.

Amazon has it up now for 19.98 and as I had Prime it's my best bet--I pre-ordered.

Thank you! Not sure why nothing took me to that page, just to the Amazon Music page.

Great front line. Will definitely stream it, and if it's as good as it appears to be will probably by the CD, too.

I have long wondered what is so awful about the 1964 Live At Pep's session that it was rejected.

Supposedly Carmell Jones was heckled before (during?) the show and his playing was adversely affected. Michael Cuscuna gave the masters to Horace so there is a chance that they're out there somewhere. If someone knows Horace's son Gregory, maybe he has them... although I did read somewhere that Gregory may have also passed.

Wow, what a line up!  I will order this as well, probably on vinyl.  Will wait for the initial fervor to die down and then prices will drop.

[Eric]

Wow - the clip sounds great.  I love the cover, may drive me to the LP.  The Penthouse is Seattle seems to be a fairly deep well.

[Mark Stryker]

FWIW, this material is very good, but, honestly, it's nowhere close to the intensity and creativity of the same band captured six months later at  the Half Note, 2/18/66, playing four songs from he Cape Verdean Blues. A tape of this (from an Alan Grant radio broadcast) has circulated for some 40 years, which is how I first heard it. They were issued on an unautyorized CD, Horace Silver Featuring Woody Show -- Live at the Half Note. on the Hi-Hat label, and I think one tune ended up on the Emerald release. I'm glad Blue Note is putting out what they are, but it's a missed opportunity to not have found a way to include the 1966 Half Note broadcast, which has some of the best Woody and Joe that I know.
