Thanks to Boldsouls on DIME for sharing this wonderful piece of history.  Very uncommon to see a complete 3+ hrs concert in excellent quality surface.  The concert contains lots of interesting bits and pieces and it fills an gaping hole in early live documentation of the Arkestra.   Now if only more recordings like this could surface!

JOE HENDERSON - STATE OF THE TENOR [BLUE NOTE CDP 7243 8 28879 2 8]


Blue Note's Doubletime series combines live sessions previously issued on two single albums onto one double CD. One of the first releases was Joe Henderson's brilliant tenor sax recital recorded live at the Village Vanguard in 1985. The State of the Tenor, Vols. 1 & 2 features Henderson backed only by bass and drums in a setting that pays homage to his prime stylistic source, Sonny Rollins, while displaying his prime skills in an ideal forum. The 14 selections range from customary standards to Henderson originals, and include compositions by Sam Rivers, Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Charles Mingus, and Horace Silver. It is not only a fine trio outing, but a series of performances in which Henderson strips songs to their essence, turning them into his own vision.

FIRE INTO MUSIC LIVE AT GUELPH JAZZ FESTIVAL










I have here a brilliant set by this all-star quartet coming straight from my own collection of private recordings. As of late they are among my favorite groups and this set is a strong representation of what they have to offer us as listeners. It is quite nice recording, I am still surprised I was able to pull it off so nicely. Hope you all enjoy and don't forget to pick up their disc on Rogue Art: Swimming in a Galaxy of Goodwill and Sorrow. I believe any other release by this group will be hard to come by.

Wally Shoup - alto sax
Jeffery Taylor - guitar
Dave Abramson - drums

Wally Shoup is a legend in the free jazz/improv scene. He has been well documented over the years, releasing records with Thurston Moore, Chris Corsano, Paul Flathery, Nels Cline, Bill Horist and many others in various combos. Jeffery Taylor and Dave Abramson are key players in the ever incestuous Seattle subunderground musical community. Taylor is one half of Climax Golden Twins and Abramson leads the Diminished Men. This LP is a live document that blew all the minds in attendance. Take your BYG/FMP/ESP/ SUN/ America/AKBA imprints and the sounds they represented and you’ll have an idea of the force and power of this amazing trio. This is some of the finest free jazz of the modern era!

One of my favorite incarnations of the Jazz Messengers. This set features the 1958 Jazz Messengers live in Paris stretching out on 11 songs. Trumpeter Lee Morgan, tenor saxophonist Benny Golson and pianist Bobby Timmons formed a potent team, backed up by bassist Jymie Merritt and the powerful drumming of leader Art Blakey. This set gives one a definitive look at the influential band.
