Music Discussion

I'd enjoy it if people would drop by again and share some thoughts about the music they downloaded from this place!

132 comments:

  1. If you have requests... I might be able to fill up on them (but I won't just spread commercially available music that's easy to find, remember that!)

    Also if you have something of your own to contribute, please feel free to it here!

  2. Well - I haven't gotten much lately but not for lack of interesting content but still i think this place is great. I have previously dl many great things from here (and commented i hope. i for one would hate to see this place disappear.

  3. hello ubu,

    'not sure about the Alan Skidmore gig. it's really one of the few offerings of yours, if not the sole one, that didn't do it for me.somehow, a bit too much on the Wynton Marsalis' side for me, if it means anything and even if it's not appropriate when you know Skidmore's background.
    I'll catch up with the latest offering. anything related to the AEOC usually has my favor.
    thanks for sharing. I very much enjoy the variety of your offerings.
    'hope we'll be treated to some of those George Russell gigs you had on dime, at some point.
    else, 'not sure how to do it, if you can forward me to some site that explains it all to dummies like myself, I might contribute with a little something which I understand is OOP.

    keep up the good work.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Yeah, well, Russell would be a nice little project some day when I have some time and no other things coming up!

    Not sure what you mean by making that connection of Ubizo to Wyne-tone (whom I hardly know and I'm not bothered by that ignorance a wee bit). Anyway, will have to play the show again myself first, before I can really say anything about it here!

  5. ish from ileoxumare who already has an astonishing Strata East blog, has now also started a blog dedicated to the German MPS label:

    http://mps-love.blogspot.com

    Check it out!

    In relation to his post about the 1975 album Chiasma by the Yosuke Yamashita trio, here's a little offering that's a bit shady:

    This contains part of another (Enja) album, with more (unreleased) music by Yamashita from 1975 - I haven't posted this anywhere yet but uploaded it some time ago for a friend who was too slow to grab it from dime before it was bannded.


    Yosuke Yamashita Trio
    Treffpunkt Jazz
    Stuttgart (Germany)
    June 12, 1975


    Yosuke Yamashita - piano
    Akira Sakata - alto sax
    Takio Moriama - drums

    guest:
    Manfred Schoof - trumpet (#3)

    1. Shinkyoku (25:03)
    2. FM Talk > Distant Thunder (3:27) [inc, fade-in, piano solo]
    3. Mitochondria (Sakata) 20:57

    TT: 49:27

    Sound: A
    Source: DVB-S@,320 48kHz > raw data > ProjextX > mp3DirectCut > mp2
    (lossy recording seeded in its original broadcast codec)


    Notes:

    Banned from dime, as #2 and #3 of this are on the OOP Enja album "Distant Thunder".
    Track 3 was identified wrongly as "Chiasma" in the recent radio broadcast this is taken from.
    Track 2 is cut short here and was misidentified as "ST 1".

  6. hi ubu

    im only an occasional visitor and have downloaded only a few of your offerings but ive found some crackers. i still listen to your sonny simmons post a lot, after several weeks. ive had to buy a couple others by him, earlier ones, and hes become a favorite.

    your last post has really caught my eye. ive only really heard of ran blake but i love everything ive heard by jeanne lee. there aren't enough singers ready to go that wild. looking forward to hearing it.

    thankyou

    oli

  7. ubu just like to thank you for the comment @ mine
    I'm sorry to say that due to lack of free time this is my first visit here :(
    However there seems a lot that I'll enjoy, the first being your current post, jeanne lee whom I love
    Thank you

  8. Good to see you here, Reza! Love your blog, of course!

    That album by Hal Singer/Jef Gilson which you took a track from for your latest compilation has been reissued on CD recently - worth looking for, in case you don't have it!

    Another Sonny Simmons show is being prepared as we speak! This time in FLAC!

  11. There's a new post (with links...) on the new MPS blog, dedicated to an album of Martial Solal's

    http://mps-love.blogspot.com/2008/06/15497-martial-solal-suite-for-trio-1977.html

    This prompted me to check out my own Solal post from over a year back (gee, I missed the fact that my blog got a year old!) and I noted that the DL links are still good - check it out here:

  12. You post some good music. I particularly liked the Johnny Griffin in Dortmund. The biggest drawback is your use of Rapidshare which is by far the most obnoxious, obstructive, inefficient and cheating system of downloads anywhere. Media Fire, Megaupload, others are hassle-free and efficient. Just a peevish comment. Keep up the good work. Best wishe from Bangkok. K.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hey there, K - I am aware that people in some eastern countries have issue with Rapidshare. Still, it's as far as I know the site used most often on blogs such as mine, and it's very easy to handle your files with RS, too, you get them all listed and you see when they were accessed the last time (and hence if they're in danger of being deleted/expiring - I only have a free account).
    Anyway, I'm sorry about that but I don't feel like opening accounts on other such file share sites. The blog is quite a bit of work as it is, and as long as things work this way, I just don't feel like investing even more time to get hip to other file share sites and figure out how they work.

    Let me know if I should dig any (or all) of them out! Would make a nice little series!

  22. Wow you certainly have some stuff, I dont mind free however do like some heartbeat to it if you understand me
    The most interesting to me is Christmann/Parker/Schlippenback/Dauner/Kowald/Lovens/Lytton
    June 13, 1977
    I partic like the sound of perc and electronics, anyway anything is gratefully received :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ok reza, I'll dig those up... might as well do a mini series then, once I found all of these...

    I have plenty of stuff, but much of it is amassed on piles and remains there unplayed for a looong time.

    Anyway, in the past few days I played some shows to see if I should share them here, and I have quite a few things up on Rapidshare now, so it will take me a while to come around preparing these Radio Stuttgart shows.

  24. hi ubu,

    the south africa compendium was trememndous, i really enjoyed much of that. makeba singing ellington? delightful. and that audience tape of chris mcgregor's band, well, it would find a good home here if you'd care to post the remainder.

    thanks for all the music,
    mb

    ReplyDelete
  25. mb, I have prepared and piled up a ton of stuff to share by now... that early McGregor (it's pre but almost BoB, and yes, it's good!) hasn't been in my hands for quite some time... I'll have to dig for it (hell, I have to sort my live recordings again!), but that will take me a while.
    I have a Louis Moholo show ready, though... I guess that shall be welcome to lovers of South African jazz, too. It's a recent radio broadcast in perfect quality, with Pino & Livio Minafra on trumpet and piano, respectively, Roberto Ottaviano on sax, and Roberto Bellatalla on bass - lovely stuff, setlist including songs by Harry Miller, Dudu, Keith Tippett, Feza and Elton Dean!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Hey Ubu
    Pop by from time to time to check up on what your listening to. Not so much time for posting on org myself though due to do a bft later in the year enjoyed the Andy Sheppard stuff and had lost touch with what he was up to a while ago. Nice sound. Meant to tell you that your Sout Africa mix provided a bit of soundtract to a trip to SA. Brillian place if you ever get to go. Best regards c

    ReplyDelete
  27. Good to see you here, C!
    Glad you enjoyed my SA-mix, too!
    Unlikely that I'll end up there too soon, but who knows...

  28. Hi Ubu, Have you seen that Fledgling is going to release Chris McGregor's 1969 title Up To Earth? (Fledg'ling 3069). Should be good!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I need to catch up with Fledgling's releases... only have the first two BoB, still need Very Urgent as well! I think I saw the news about "Up to Earth" somewhere already, but thanks for the reminder!

    I made too heavy use of the local summer sales and took advantage of Mosaic's 15% offer to order the Bix/Tram/Tea box just now, so McGregor will have to wait a while...

  30. I love the african jazz -- the johnny griffin pres --- thanks for helping the world go round

  31. I don't usually pay much attention to the "Now Listening" column, but today I noticed this: "CĆ©u! CĆ©u! CĆ©u!" Is this the Brazilian singer, or is there someone else by the same name?
    Here in Brazil, CĆ©u has been hailed as the new voice that will end the dearth of fresh talent. I've listened to the record (only once) but didn't think it was anything special. Now I'm wondering what made you give it three shouts. Maybe I'll have to give it another spin.

    Gato

    ReplyDelete
  32. Yes, that CĆ©u - I got her album and just fell in love with it... doesn't happen all that often, but still it's probably no indication about the qualities of her music... I don't know much about Brazilian music, so...

  33. Just called by to see how the 1964 Kirk session fixes are going. (you're eminently readable, now...)

  35. I am a recent first time visitor via CIA and I am exploring this place and find your posts quite interesting. the first thing I DL'd was the Getz/barron set which is awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Hi Ubu,

    Look here, in a few days on RAI radio 3 it's...

    Tippett/Tippetts/Moholo/Minafra's Viva la Black live at Sardegna e Jazz 2008!

    http://www.radio.rai.it/radio3/view.cfm?Q_EV_ID=271506&Q_PROG_ID=158

    If you are able to record this broadcast (or know somebody who can) and up it to this blog that would be greatly appreciated. I'd attempt to record it myself but I have no idea how to do that from where I am (and I'd probably botch it up anyway). I have a boot of this show, but this RAI recording will surely make that redundant.

    Cheers,
    Owen

    PS. You must check out http://www.mfowler.myzen.co.uk if you haven't already. Finally, a comprehensive Blue Notes family site!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Hi Owen, thanks for that link, didn't see that site yet!

    I can't record in good quality myself, and RAI I can't record at all, but there's a jazz mailing list related to dime, I sent a request there. If it won't turn up, I already have an audience recording of the whole concert (also from dime).

    ReplyDelete
  38. Thanks Ubu,

    Yeah, the Blue Notes site is fantastic. I'm telling everyone to help Mike out getting all the info together. We need to share in order to preserve this stuff.

    The VLB Sardegna Dime recording you have is the boot I mentioned. Here's hoping someone at Dime hears the call to grab this broadcast.

    In the meantime, I hope you don't mind if I make a few general requests...

    I wouldn't be disappointed if you upped something with Keith Tippett in the future. There's a BBC recording of a latter era Louis Moholo's Spirits Rejoice group gig out there that I've been after for a while. Do you have that in your collection by any chance? And ANYTHING with Julie Tippetts would be a hoot too, eg the Dedication Orch live at Adrian Boult Hall Birmingham is another I know is around but I'm yet to find. And of course, anything Blue Notes/Brotherhood of Breath/Harry Miller related always goes down a treat (and I know you have some rare treaures of that variety as featured in your SA Jazz blindfold test).

    Whatever tickles your fancy.

    Cheers again, happy new year, and keep up the great work!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I forgot to mention, I wrote a small article on the VLB boot from Grenoble last year, which features an identical set to Sardegna (and almost identical set to the Ruvo 2004 CD).

    Check it out here...

    http://mootmobile.blogspot.com/2008/05/keith-tippett-julie-tippetts-louis.html

    If you do end up hosting the RAI broadcast feel free to hack and copy my notes for your blog if that helps.

    Cheers once more!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Owen, I have some Moholo, Tippett etc, shows, but frankly I've had no time to really dig into Tippett's music - there's just so much good music to listen to, and I don't proceed with any kind of method (in the past days it was mostly the Mingus Debut recordings and all the Gigi Gryce material I have, next up may be Jimmie Lunceford or Freddie Hubbard, who knows...)

    I have a pile of SA and related live shows lying around, as I plan to do a little series of seeds sometime, but it will take me a while (I have two short broadcasts of Miller's and a bad-sounding longer aud rec, some BoB that I think hasn't been on the inconstantsol-blog yet, loads of Ibrahim, also some younger guys, Zim Ngqawana, McCoy Mrubata/Paul Hanmer, some wild out stuff by the Blue Notes with Reverend Frank Wright, etc.)

    I think the Moholo show I have somewhere, but I can't guarantee (Sept 30, 1999, Leicester? I also have a Viva Black show from 1996-07-06, Eldena and his 2007 set from NYC's Vision Fest).

    The Dedication Orchestra set I have as well, it seems:

    Dedication Orchestra (cond. Beresford, Steve)
    2003-03-23
    Birmingham (UK), Adrian Boult Hall


    Harry Beckett (t,flh), Henry Lowther (t,flh), Jim Dvorak (t), Noel Langley (t), Malcolm Griffiths (tb), Paul Rutherford (tb), Dave Amis (tb), Alan Tomlinson (tb), Mark Charig (tenor h,flh), Elton Dean (sax), Evan Parker (sax), Larry Stabbins (sax), Lol Coxhill (ss), Ray Warleigh (as), Neil Metcalfe (fl), Chris Biscoe (bari), Dave Powell (tuba), Keith Tippett (p), Paul Rogers (b), Louis Moholo (d), Julie Tippetts (voc), Maggie Nicols (voc), Phil Minton (voc), David Serame (voc), Steve Beresford (cond)

    Seems to be all I have with her.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Thanks for looking into that. Very much appreciated.

    Yes, the Dedication Orch set is the one I've been looking for, and I think that Moholo date is the one I'm after too. The VlB '96 I'm not familiar with at all (but I'm sure it's great), and Moholo's Vision Fest show (audience recording, I take it?) I must have missed completely (assuming it's been on dime). Any of those would sure be a treat for my ears.

    I have the Evil Garden concert (so very different to the Evil Garden studio CD Nagl put out with the same crew!), and I have seen that Couple in Spirit Verona set listed around but haven't managed to grab it yet.

    The BoB and Miller stuff sounds fascinating. Regardless of quality it's all got to be worthwhile.

    Have you heard the new Harry Miller Isipingo "Full Steam Ahead" archive release on Reel Recordings? It's a stonking set, as is the Command All Stars "Curiosities 1972" (AKA half of the lost Charig/Evans curated, Fripp produced "Guilty But Insane" double album). I bought both just before Christmas and they're getting plenty of spin in my house... well, when the family's not in anyway!

    Cheers!

    ReplyDelete
  42. FYI the Tippett/Tippetts/Moholo/Minafra VlB Sardegna set from RAI 3 has been upped at Dime.

    Thanks for putting the word out!

    Cheers!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Owen, I'll also share the Tippett/Moholo/Minafra here later on, for those who're not on dime. I haven only sampled it so far, but it sounds indeed great!

  48. Nathand, glad you found and enjoy my blog!

    It's my policy not share any officially/legitimately released material (you'll find very few exceptions here), so that Brubeck won't show up here, sorry. I don't have it, but it seems to be in print and available, here:

    http://www.freshsoundrecords.com/record.php?record_id=4410

    Unless of course there's a different Storyville album by Brubeck - I'm not a completist of his work, I mainly enjoy Desmond and just buy whatever I see cheap by the 50s/60s Brubeck quartet.

    I just love that Blossom Dearie recording you recently posted. I also wrote a tribute to her in Chinese when I heard the sad news a couple of weeks ago.
    and I am wondering if you have any recording by Mike Westbrook, who is a jazz musician from England (since you said we can tell you our requests).
    and do you have Jazz Suite & Other Works by Igor Raykhelson ?

    Thank you once more.

  51. Jason, I don't have that disc, but Amazon has it, so...

    http://www.amazon.com/Jazz-Suite-Other-Works/dp/B000O5B4WO

    I don't share commercially released music here, and most certainly not commercially released works by contemporary artists. Those artists deserve all our support, so go to their concerts and buy their music!

    As for Westbrook, I have some live shows of his, but at the moment I have little time, and first I'll share the promised shows from my dime b-day party, whenever my schedule allows! I'll try and not forget about Westbrook though!

    ReplyDelete
  52. Thanks, man. I'll get that album from Amazon and I will remind you to share some rare works from Westbrook next month.hhahahhah
    Have a good day.

  53. Freddie Hubbard Quintet October 11 1983 Symphony Space, New York

    I've got this on an open-reel tape recorded live from an EBU day long broadcast and it seems that the date is 1992. It was a Columbus day celebration to celebrate the 500th anniversary of Culunbus's voyage in 1492. There seems no doubt that the correct broadcast date 1s 1992 and not 1983.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Mike, I got that one from dime with the info I repeated here. Would you say it's the date of broadcast only that was different, or the date of the actual recording? I guess the later, but I just want to make sure!

  55. Hi Ubu--

    I've enjoyed the Cedar Walton show you posted. Can I request another item from DIME? There's a live solo concert by Stanley Cowell in Verona 2008. Its supposed to be excellent. I'd love to hear it. thanks

  56. Hi -

    I just found your site and you have some great taste in music.
    Thank you for sharing the music.

    I hope to look at your jazz research links soon.

    Thanks again,

  57. Hi ubu. I love your site and have downloaded tons of stuff over the years, you have such a fantastic collection. Thank you for spending your time and resources on this terrific project.

    The reason I don't leave many comments is because I am a bit of an impulsive and anti-social bastid at times and liable to say the wrong thing. But please carry on the good work as your blog goes from strength to strength.

    Thanks a million!

  58. Hey, Ubu, I love the stuff you've posted.I do hate rapidshare, but it appears they've improved lately. I myself use sendspace, but megaupload seems to offer some benefits. Whatever. I've been collecting shows for 35 years, contact me directly and I can let you know what I have, I'm willing to share anything. Many shows of mine have made their way to dime, but I don't do torrents. I'm at trpt2345@aol.cm.

    After years of interacting with you on the Organissimo forum, I finally stumbled on this gold mine of a site of yours. Incredible!!! I propose changing your handle from Ubu Roi to Saint Ubu. :)

    Thanks!!!

    P.S. If you ever do get around to repairing the link to disc 9 in the Pres series, I will be very, very, very happy. :)

  60. Hi John!

    Good to see you around here! I hope you've found your way to the Basie place, too - not much stuff up there yet and proceeding slowly, but much more to come, eventually!

    As for Pres #9, thanks for the reminder, it will be up again in a few minutes!

  63. Bright Moments, ubu! I've been checkin' out this great blog of yours for awhile now and need to say "thanks" for the Lucky Thompson radio broadcasts and the beautifully "repackaged" Rahsaan material. Great stuff!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I've been listening through the live Pres set, and my mind and soul are just boggled. I thought that I was set with live Pres. I have all the Masters of Jazz, the Jazz Views, and all other releases that I could find. But this is different. Not only is there music that I have never heard, but the sound quality is a MAJOR improvement. The chronological sequencing is also very appropriate and informative. I am beginning to think that, contrary to conventional wisdom, 1950-1951 were the absolute peak of Pres' art. The 1950-1951 recordings on this set are IT. You can throw in the 1950 live set released by Savoy as well. That can stand with anything that has every been recorded by anybody, if you ask me. :)

    Thanks again, mon Roi!

    ReplyDelete
  65. Hm, I haven't been listening lot of Pres lately, but these 1950 sessions always sounded great to me!

    I think I might have some additional material, downloaded from somewhere... will have to look into it first, though.

  73. Your blog is a source of great music, I already downloaded several posts. Howerver I find rapidshare a bit annoying (if you don't pay...). Did you ever try Wuala - I use this file sharing platform and I'm very happy with it.

  74. Hi,
    As a frequent visitor to your blog I thought I'd just take the time to thank you for all the fantastic music you've posted. Keep up the good work!

  75. Thanks a lot for your comment, Jazzjet! Glad you enjoy my blog!

    ReplyDelete
  76. Hi Ubu. I've been visiting this blog for a couple of years and have found a few out of print items that were just great. I normally go to other sources for music, but lately, I find this site is really hard to use. I can't figure it out. Maybe I missed something in the past year that changed your format. At any rate, our local library has a great collection so if there's some thing obscure that you are looking for, let me know, there' s a reasonable chance I can find it.

  77. Hi Ubu,

    Small favour to ask if it's possible. I seem to have lost my files of the second Mujician set from The Sage that was up on Dime until recently. If you could help with a re-up, or by posting to this blog (the second set hasn't been shared by blog as far as I can tell) that would be greatly appreciated. Follyfortoseewhat's had the first set up in the past and I've also asked him. I have no idea if he has the second set, but I'm pretty sure you do (I think I recall your name in the comments at Dime).

    As always, keep up the good work here!

    Cheers for now,
    Owen

    ReplyDelete
  78. Owen, I'm at work, but could you please give me the date of that Sage show, so I can make sure I don't mix things up?

    I'll try and check within the next few days!

    The second set was broadcast on BBC3's "Jazz on 3" 11:15pm March 2nd 2009 (alongside a Keith & Julie Tippett live set from The London Jazz Festival 2008(?)). The first Mujician set was an earlier broadcast. I have both the first Mujician set and the unrelated K&J Tippett. I'm only missing the second Mujician set.

    PS. Have you seen the Electric Jive blog? Lots of great, rare Sth African jazz (inc Chris McGregor's debut as bandleader for the 1962 musical Mr. Paljas!) that should be up your alley.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Owen, sorry for not following up sooner - glad it was re-seeded on dime!

    Yes, I try to keep up with electricjive, but it's a constant fight, and usually I end up unpacking and tagging the albums half a year or so behind... (that applies to all blogs...)

    Don't miss "Our Boys Are Doing It", one of the finest slices of South African jazz I've heard!

  87. hello ubu,
    in order to save streamed music, I usually use a software that you can download (for free) there

    thanks for sharing such good music.

    take care.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Hi Ubu, thanks for the great blog and the amazing music! I was particularly blown away by the blindfold test with all that South African stuff I'd never heard before... a real ear opener.

    Many of the tracks are credited to unreleased radio broadcasts or live recordings, such as the phillip tabane and the ibrahim/dyani duo. Could you please upload the rest of those shows? I'm sure there's loads more to hear from there.

    As to my contribution to the proceedings, it comes in the form of a request. Does anyone have any information on a SA saxophonist called Boy Masaka? I first heard him on the compilation here

    http://wrldsrv.blogspot.com/2009/01/vocal-jive.html

    And was completely blown away! The guy sounds like a volatile mix of Coltrane and Kippie - and most of the stuff was recorded in the fifties or something!

    There's some more available here

    http://www.disa.ukzn.ac.za/samap/category/people/masakaboy

    But that's about it. No albums - it was the time of the 78 single - and no real information either. If anyone knows anything...

    ReplyDelete
  89. Glad you're enjoying the blog!

    The Malombo show is in lamentable state... that one track I tried to reconstruct as best as I could, but it still sounds horrible. Not sure it's worth putting it up, but I'll look into it.

    More South African jazz will eventually follow anyway, I'll try and think of the Ibrahim/Dyani duo show as well...

    Boy Masaka is a name completely unknown to me, alas, but if you find anything more, please let me know about it!

  96. I can't get enough of the Elvin set you have here. The Band is on fire and Elvin, as always, is wonderful. If you have any other B. Altschul with Kenny Drew live recordings I would love to hear them. Both lived, played, and recorded in Europe together and I've always wondered about how amazing thier shows would be.
    Your contributions are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Many many thanks for the '65 Rollins set. So great to hear HH in the band.I got a thrill to hear the announcer mention Coltrane's residence in the coming week. That stay produced the 2nd disc of the commercially released Coltrane "Live at the Half Note". A set that D Liebman and others have played for and shared with for many musicians since the late '70's. Amazing to compare these artists at that moment in time. Both playing song forms and staying "in time".Sonny staying with the mainly American songbook and Coltrane building his own repertoire. Both stretching their instruments to new places in timbre and texture. Coltane's band with its constant personnel created a language and aura that remains a profound influence on many of us. While Rollins is the only constant in his ever shifting line-ups. Astonishing that two musicians could develop in the way that they did. More or less simultaneously. We are lucky indeed.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Hello Ubu,

    I had contacted you earlier about following up with the Dizzy Big Band Recording at the Spotlite - thanks for the Uptown and RCA recommendations, they are great! I have come across an OOP Vinyl recording online: At The Downbeat Club, Summer 1947. (http://cgi.ebay.com/DIZZY-GILLESPIE-AT-THE-DOWNBEAT-CLUB-SUMMER-1947-LP_W0QQitemZ370301272193QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item5637ad0081) Have you run across this or know of a vinyl rip? It has what I currently think is the earliest recording of Tadd Dameron's "Ladybird," preceding the Tadd Dameron/Fats Navaro sextet recording from Sept of 48.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I'll have to look into it... not sure if I have this or not. I thought the main portion of these big band broadcasts was on the Uptown set, but I guess I'll need to check the discographies... and my CDs and CDRs. Will see... thinking about a bebop project anyway (though not here and not including posting all the music - on a discussion forum, rather...)

    Anyway, too busy right now, but hopefully in April!

    Glad you enjoy the RCA and the Uptown sets, btw! If you want a more complete image of early Diz, look for "Odyssey", the Savoy 3CD set. Its third disc has stuff from the weaker years (51/52... they went on until 53 or 54 I guess, though on "Diz & Getz", Dizzy is poised! Then he picked up steam again when he was signed by Norman Granz)

    ReplyDelete
  100. ubu,

    That Sonny/Herbie live set is wonderful. Thank you again for sharing all that you do!

    I was wondering if you had the recording of Shorter, Hancock, Gary Peacock, and Tony Williams at the Village Vanguard from 1965 (Aug 1, according to some lists), which was apparently a Miles gig where Miles didn't show. I didn't know about it until I saw it mentioned at Do The Math and was wondering if you had a copy in your treasure chest...

    thank you again for all that you do for us!

    The first three you list were never on the blog, and it was never my intention to have them here. Dime is a P2P community and as most folks even there are just interested in grabbing as much as they can, stuff tends to get deleted fast. Sorry, but I don't even have these files backed up and absolutely no time to look for the CDRs right now.

    The Rollins 1967 was trolled, so I won't bother to upload it... I will re-up missing files if trolls have reported one of several files and all the others are still up, but I'm just not in the mood to try this one again on a different host and all that crap.

    @nick

    I have that one, but it's in absolutely horrible sound as I remember. If I stumble over it, I'll try and remember and give it a spin to see... but gee, time is short these days!

    The link you have up for the Bley/Haden/Motian '99 Trevano date doesn't work. Any chance of reposting?

    Thanks again.

  105. I am sorry, but these comments by first-time commenters asking for re-ups or asking me to up dime seeds that have long gone are starting to annoy me a bit - there's so much music, why don't you get what's here?

    As for "People Time", there's a box set that came out a while ago, with all the recordings, it's highly recommended - go and buy it!

    Best offer I'm aware of is this one here:
