Jazz Reissues

Keine Ahnung, es fehlen ja noch weitere Alben – vielleicht mangelt es da an vernünftigem Ausgangsmaterial?

Dass Hoffman irrt will ich natürlich nicht suggerieren, im Gegenteil, die Sache über die 8-Spur-Geräte usw. fand ich sehr interessant (und dass die Beatles mit zehn Jahren Verspätung auch noch drauf kamen …)

Man wird wohl die Box kaufen müssen, um wirklich klar zu sehen. Ich bin jedenfalls etwas erstaunt.

Steve Hoffman kann sich auch mal irren, würde mich nur wundern, wenn das ausgerechnet in diesem Fall so wäre.

Don Menza
First Flight – Complete Recordings (2-CD Set)

Fresh Sound Records
Reference: FSRCD 891_2
Bar code: 8427328608916

Don Menza was born and raised in Buffalo, New York, where he began playing tenor saxophone when he was 13. After serving in the U.S. Army, he worked with Maynard Ferguson’s Orchestra (1960–1962) as a soloist and an arranger. A short time with Stan Kenton and a year leading a quintet in Buffalo preceded a period living in Germany (1964–68).

“Coming to California in 1968 was a cultural shock for me,” he remembers. “I had just left Germany where I had the security of a steady job with the now legendary Max Greger TV Orchestra.” But there were consolations. “Los Angeles was home to one of my very favorite trombone players—Frank Rosolino,” he explains. “For over 10 years we played gigs together on the West Coast and he always amazed me with his lyricism and incredible facility on what some people regard as a ‘cumbersome’ instrument. We toured Europe with Supersax and played a memorable week-long gig at the “Domicile” in Munich at the end of that tour. These recordings are the results of those times together. Thank you Frank, for your musicianship and enthusiasm, you are sorely missed…”

In a career that also included spells in Buddy Rich’s 1968 big band (recording the famous solo cadenza on “Channel One Suite” live at Caesar’s Palace, Las Vegas which is now regarded as a classic), and in the bands of Elvin Jones and Louie Bellson, Don Menza still looks back on his times with Frank Rosolino with particular pride and affection.

The PHILosophy of URSO – Phil Urso’s 1953-1959 Sessions (2-CD Set)

Personnel:
Phil Urso (ts, bs), Bob Brookmeyer (tb), Julius Watkins (Frh), Ron Washington (ts), Walter Bishop Jr., Horace Silver, Bobby Timmons (p), Bobby Banks (org), Percy Heath, Jimmy Bond, Oscar Pettiford, Charles Mingus (b), Kenny Clarke, Peter Littman (d)

Fresh Sound Records
Reference: FSRCD 889_2
Bar code: 8427328608893

Phil Urso (1925-2008) was an excellent tenor saxophonist mainly known through his various recordings with Chet Baker. Before their first album together in 1956, jazz fans first noticed Urso in 1949 after his solos on Elevation and Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea with Elliot Lawrence’s orchestra. By 1953, he merited serious consideration as one of the most consistently rewarding of the younger tenors. His tone and approach was in the Lester Young-and-second-line tradition, but he had his own identifiable voice. He also was one of the few white musicians Miles Davis could accept, and a swinger who could adapt imaginatively to all tempos. In his own words, “I played a little more dark, and Miles liked that.”

This CD collection contains all his recordings from 1953 to 1959, as a leader or featured guest—point in case, his work on baritone, in addition to his usual tenor—with the Jomar Dagron quintet. You will hear Urso playing with such musicians as Walter Bishop Jr, Bob Brookmeyer, Horace Silver, Kenny Clarke,Bobby Timmons, Ron Washington, Bobby Banks, and as a bonus his album with the Oscar Pettiford new jazz sextet. They show a player of real stature—enough for Chet Baker to tell him (in a letter in 1971) “I have always felt you were and are the most underrated of America’s jazz players and composers.”

In Japan erscheinen auch ein paar Alben, die es vor fünf, sechs Jahren mal von Toshiba/EMI gab wieder, diesmal als SHM-CDs (und zu einem guten Preis, 1200 Yen):

Costa/Burke Trio (Jubilee):

Jackie McLean Quintet (Jubilee):
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/WPCR-29001

Seldon Powell (Roost):
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/WPCR-29005

Und auch einige schöne Sonny Stitt Roost-Alben (die es sonst ev. in Spanien gibt – sicher in schlechterem Klang – und in der Mosaic-Box natürlich) … eine Liste habe ich nicht, aber man kann die URL von 01 bis 50 anpassen. Es tauchen da auch Atlantic-Alben auf, was mich etwas verwirrt (der Klassik-Teil von EMI ging zwar zu Warner, der Jazz-Teil aber zu Universal).

Danke – und da ich da grad stöbere, weiteres erwähnenswertes (manches davon hab ich schon auf der Merkliste bei CDJapan):

die Larry Young Fuel-Alben:
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SICJ-190
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SICJ-191
in derselben Reihe gibt es auch ein paar von Hino, darunter Double Rainbow mit Kikuchi:
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SICJ-218
auch dabei sind zwei von Masahiko Sato, über die ich irgendwie nichts finden kann, MSB und MSB II (MSB=Medical Sugar Bank)

hier gibt es neben zwei Kikuchi-Reissues, die wir schon hatten („Susto“ und „One Way Traveller“) u.a.:
Jackie McLean – Monuments
Pharoah Sanders
das Columbia-Debut von Irakere
und eines von Dave Liebman, das nicht ganz uninteressant aussieht … ebenso das tolle Kimiko Kasai-Album mit Herbie Hancock

und Elvin Jones Live at the Lighthouse ist auch greifbar:

Über diese Satos habe ich mich auch gewundert, bei dem Hino Album tendier ich bisher eher zu ne… aus der zweiten Reihe habe ich mir ja neulich schon das Al Foster Album mit Kikuchi vorgemerkt, das wohl sein muss, die Watanabes schienen mir weniger essentiell als die auf East Wind

edit: hier sind zwei Tracks von Sato (hü, hott), erinnert mich diffus an dieses Albert Mangelsdorf mit der Klaus Lage Band oder so, ist jedenfalls scheinbar nicht so essentiell… Hinos Double Rainbow scheint etwas interessanter (zB), aber – Kikuchi hin oder her – wenn wären da wohl die anderen East Wind Alben interessanter
