BACK BONE quincy jones and his orchestra LIVE IN LUDWIGSHAFEN 1961 The Quintessence was the title of an iconic 1961 Impulse! LP by Quincy Jones & His Orchestra and one can hardly think of a better way to describe the sound of Jones’ modern, progressive and groundbreaking big band at its pinnacle. The same sound can be heard on the outstanding new release, presenting a performance by the band recorded that same year in Ludwigshafen by the German radio SWR (formerly SWF). This previously unreleased concert is one of the very few testimonies left by this star-packed but unfortunately short-lived formation, which was disbanded shortly after this European tour due to the leader’s impossibility to afford its costs. The amazing music captured for posterity and presented on this set speaks for itself.

Groundwork key tracks include the title tune and ‘Hindsight,’ both by Cedar Walton. Eric Reed’s ‘New Boundary’ is a tribute to modern jazz musician Dwayne Burno. Throughout his career, Willie Jones III has lent his supple rhythm and buoyant spirit to artists like Cedar Walton, Milt Jackson, Horace Silver, Sonny Rollins and Roy Hargrove. Today, he continues to become one of jazz music’s most sought out bandleaders. • WILLIE JONES III, drums • ERIC REED, piano • BUSTER WILIAMS, bass • EDDIE HENDERSON, trumpet • STACY DILLARD, tenor sax • WARREN WOLF, vibes • steve davis, trombone Avatar Studios, New York, August 5, 2014 01.

Dutch label Criss Cross and Danish Stunt had bet already on his leading talent but he is best known as a member of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and a longtime associate of trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. A shining exemplar of New Orleans rhythm he makes funk and soul bend toward jazz for a compelling album.

Free improvisation is often license for an abrasiveness that can obscure the substantial intelligence and effort involved in a project but Altschul, Irabagon and Fonda shine in this environment.

These labels came up strongly with out of print material and with catalogues that were a delight for the jazz fans and, in many cases, for the hard core collector. Some disappeared for unknown reasons. Others lost their driving force behind and fizzled out. Luckily for those collectors, we at Jazz Messengers have kept a few copies of certain titles and we are presenting them this month at our regular low prices as always. Labels and titles that are never expected to be seen again or rarely in their first original editions.

Some giants came before him but most tenor saxophonists who emerged after the mid ‘40s were influenced by him in some way, from Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane to Jimmy Heath, Gene Ammons, Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis and Johnny Griffin. Although 26 years have passed since Gordon’s death at 67 on Apr. 25th, 1990, his influence hasn’t waned: one hears echoes in everyone from Joe Lovano to Eric Alexander to Joshua Redman.

A Portrait of Jenny DUKE ELLINGTON We always know what we will find on a Duke Ellington’s album. Consistently good music exceptionally well played. These two albums are no exception. What they stand out from others is that both have never been released before. De Doelen Concert was part of his European tour in 1969 and should appeal to all completitsts. However its meeting with the legendary German producer Conny Plank stands out as a monumental one. The equivalent of such fabled unions as Prince and Miles Davis or Keith Richards and Gram Parsons. A coming together of a great American icon and an adventurous young soundman from Deutschland that is as beautiful as it is unorthodox.
