Carmell Jones didn´t play on the Paul Whiteman album 'The Complete Capitol Recordings' (CAPITOL 30103), which was mentioned here before. Whiteman conducted a band at a session which was recorded years before many of the musicians listed could have been either known or available. The album and the personnel are two different items which have been mis-matched ! (CONTE CANDOLI, CARMELL JONES, RAY WETZEL, SHORTY ROGERS, EDDIE BERT, BOB BROOKMEYER, JIMMY GIUFFRE, BOB GORDON; BILLl HOLMAN, JACK MONTROSE, HAROLD LAND, ART PEPPER, FRANK STROZIER, PETE JOLLY, LOU LEVY, PETE RUGOLO, FRANK STRAZZERI, RUSS FREEMAN, PAUL MOER, JIM HALL, RED MITCHELL, LEROY VINNEGAR, MONTY BUDWIG, EDDIE SAFRANSKI, CURTIS COUNCE, RALPH PENA, LEON PETTIS, SHELLY MANNE, LARANCE MARABLE).

Review: This five-CD set traces the development of the big band in jazz from the end of the swing era up until the 1990s. 58 different orchestras are heard from, generally in one selection apiece although there are some exceptions (most notably Duke Ellington). The music is divided into four categories (Road Bands, Part-Time Bands, Studio Bands and Avant-Garde Bands) but many groups really fall into overlapping genres. The set's greatest fault is that the recordings (which range from Ted Heath to Sun Ra) have not been programmed in strict chronological order which, more than any other method, would have best shown off the music's evolution. However there are many rarities included on this set, the 88-booklet is quite informative, and fans of modern jazz big bands will find much to savor. Big Band Renaissance / Various Artists

Review: Although one does not think of the 1950's and 60's as a period when jazz had a lot of "hits", occasionally a fluke recording would make the charts and catch on. 19 fairly popular cuts (although not 'Take Five' or 'Hello Dolly') from the 1949-67 period (all but the first two are from 1959-67) are included on this Rhino CD collection in their '45' single versions which were often expertly edited to be briefer than their LP counterpart. Such artists as James Moody (a version of 'I'm In The Mood For Love' that was the basis for 'Moody's Mood For Love'), Count Basie, Charles Mingus, the Jazztet (Killer Joe), Gene Ammons, John Coltrane (a greatly truncated version of 'My Favorite Things'), Eddie Harris (Exodus), Herbie Mann, Stan Getz (Desafinado), Jimmy Smith, Hank Crawford, Vince Guaraldi (Cast Your Fate To The Wind), Jimmy Mc Griff, Mongo Santamaria, Donald Byrd, Horace Silver, Ramsey Lewis, Cannonball Adderley (Mercy, Mercy, Mercy) and Wes Montgomery are all represented in this interesting sampler.

Review: Jazz Profile compiles highlights from Horace Silver's recordings for Blue Note, drawing a rough portrait of his career. The compilation features both soul-jazz and hard-bop cuts, giving a good sense of Silver's depth and range. While there isn't anything here that will appeal to collector's, Jazz Profile does offer a nice introduction for curious listeners. Jazz Profile (Vol. 12) / Horace Silver

Review: Saxophonist/flutist Bud Shank was a key player in the West Coast jazz movement, first coming to prominence in the late 1940s and early 1950s playing with Stan Kenton, Laurindo Almeida and the Lighthouse All-Stars. This 60-song set traces his early development as a bandleader with his mid-'50s quartet, which included pianist Claude Williamson, and his early-'60s quintet, which featured trumpeter Carmell Jones and guitarist Dennis Budimir. ...Sharing the fifth disc with Barefoot Adventure is the bluesy album New Groove, recorded six months prior to Barefoot Adventure with a similar line- up, basically the band Bud was holding forth with at the Drift Inn during the same time period. This grouping introduces trumpeter Carmell Jones, and Shank plays both alto and baritone as if unaware that West Coast jazz is supposed to be 'neat but not greasy'. More fine guitar from Budimir who contributes a smokin' solo on Gary Peacock's 'Liddledabllduya'. ...While the soundtrack to Slippery When Wet is a laid back affair, the soundtrack for Barefoot Adventure, recorded just two-and-a-half years later in November 1961, is much more muscular in tone. From the first staccato notes Da DA Da Da DA Da, Da DA Da Da  ...as little footprints travel up and down the screen introducing the title and opening credits to the moment when the rest of the band jumps in you know this movie and its accompanying score is going to be a stoker. Bud Shank is working with a sextet this time around with only bassist Gary Peacock on board from the SWW sessions; Dennis Budimir replaces Billy Bean on guitar, and the addition of Carmell Jones on trumpet and long-time Shank associate Bob Cooper on tenor contributes to a fuller, tougher sound. Shank himself alternates between alto and baritone this time out and when he and Cooper trade riffs the results are inspired. I used to wonder if this Bob Cooper could be the [surfer] Bob Cooper and I would compare photos from the back cover of the album with photos of Bob Cooper surfing Makaha shorebreak in the first Surfer to see if all that coolness could be rolled up into one guy. It wasn't but both Bobs were very cool nonetheless. As are the rhythm section of Gary Peacock and drummer par excellence Shelly Manne.

Review: This very interesting collector's LP is comprised of versions of 'Señor Blues' and 'Tippin' that were originally part of a 45, along with seven previously unissued performances from a variety of sets by the Horace Silver Quintet (in addition to a trio rendition of 'Que Pasa'). General collectors should get the pianist/composer's regular Blue Note releases first but Silver's longtime fans will find this fresh music fascinating and quite enjoyable.

Review: Although this CD sticks to Joe Pass' early period and cannot be accurately called "The Best", it does feature the guitaist in prime form. Rarest among the selections are three numbers from Pass' debut, Sounds of Synanon. In addition, the guitarist is heard on four selections from his classic For Django date; he performs 'More' from a movie theme record and 'But Beautiful' from his Catch Me date; and he makes guest appearances with Gerald Wilson's big band, Richard Groove Holmes and Les McCann. Although sticking much more to single-note lines than he would in his later Pablo days, Joe Pass was already instantly recognizable and a major (if at the time underrecognized) guitarist. Worth picking up.

Review: Unlike many other box sets currently available, this 4-CD package is actually a sampler taken from Joe Henderson's many recordings for Blue Note; all but three selections date from 1963-69. Out of the 36 selections, 26 feature the great tenor as a sideman and some are from sessions not reissu- ed in quite awhile. Henderson is instantly recognizable (his distinctive tone has not changed much since 1963) and an asset to each of these performances. Also included in the box is a very attractive 40-page booklet that is highlighted by his complete Blue Note discography. This set is particularly recommended to listeners only vaugely aware of Joe Henderson's powerful music.
--
The Blue Note Years features 36 tracks beginning with Henderson's 1963 Blue Note debut 'Una Mas' to 1990's 'For The Moment'. This set also contains many rare Blue Note sessions including a live performance with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra. Included with the 4 discs is a 40-page booklet with previously unpublished photographs by Francis Wolff and a complete discography.
