GEORGE COLEMAN on REEL TO REAL for RSD BLACK FRIDAY!
I’m happy to announce that my archival jazz cohort Cory Weeds and I are back with another previously-unissued discovery coming for Record Store Day Black Friday (11/27)! The George Coleman Quintet „In Baltimore“ was captured live at the Famous Ballroom on May 23, 1971, presented by the Left Bank Jazz Society, and featured a stellar band with trumpeter Danny Moore, pianist Albert Dailey, bassist Larry Ridley and drummer Harold White. The limited-edition 180g LP includes an elaborate insert with beautiful photos by Francis Wolff, intros by Cory and I, a main overview essay by the great jazz historian/archivist (and producing mentor to me) Michael Cuscuna, plus interviews with „the Big G“ himself George Coleman, John Fowler from the Left Bank, and the self-described Colelman disciple, tenor man Eric Alexander. Audio restoration direct from the original tapes by Chris Gestrin, LP mastering by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, LLC, and pressed at Standard Vinyl in Toronto
It’s especially significant because it’s also the first known recording of George Coleman as a leader (a good six years before his first studio album as a leader from 1977). As Michael Cuscuna says, „This concert is a rare early glimpse at George Coleman in charge and, as always, playing magnificently.
