Album Description
Reissue with Charlie Parker Quintet, Miles Davis, Duke Jordan, Thelonious Monk, Tommy Potter, Max Roach, Earl Coleman, & Carmen McRae. Definitive. 2003.Customer Reviews:
Stay away!.......2007-06-21
Marginal sound quality.......2006-10-21
Phenomenal alto-sax musicianship, cohesive band, amazing.......2004-01-14
This is a 2 CD release, increased from the original shorter,
vinyl album from decades ago, as the Benedetti recordings
resurfaced in the 1990's, or a few years prior to that.
Therefore, the original tapes, the full tapes were recovered
that Benedetti recorded...no need to get the Mosaic box set,
as this 2CD is a critical piece of the Bird musical puzzle.
Considering that this is the year 2000 and counting, new
technical, digital technology that is incredibly efficient
and magical in its removal of noise and defects greatly
improved these recordings, coupled with quite likely, manual
editing out of the worst defects, and just a major overhaul
of the listener experience.
As a result of that, the sound is quite good in its own
right... the drums are very strong, the bass very strong,
the alto sax as played by Bird increasingly loud and strong
as the music progresses from CD1 to CD2, as well as Miles Davis'
own presence, felt throughout the music, to add that melodic,
heart-felt, soulful presence that balances out the more
dynamic elements of the other 3 band members.
In sum, July 7, 10 and 11 of 1948 at the Onyx were performances
that are truely timeless, and are actually every bit as exciting,
enjoyable and incredibly human now, in 2003 (for example)
as they were back then.
THis is a great live recording, although I'm sure some audiophiles
would have preferred the band getting recorded with a minidisc
and sterophonic microphones, with multitrack, etc.
Sometimes, a better view is to focus on the performances in itself,
as opposed to a technological perspective of sound quality or what
is selling down at the store these days, in terms of recording
devices and paraphernalia.
Good work, to those Spanish lads, to release this.
