A perfect example is the now classic Tina Brooks date "Minor Move." Even though the soloing is jaw-dropping in it's intensity from ALL on hand, the ensemble blowing is somewhat rough around the edges and thus it was rejected back in '58 only to see the light of day in the early 80's. Blue Note sessions in the Lion era (with the exception of some of the "live" dates like "Night of the Cookers," etc.) were for the most part NOT freewheeling blowing sessions. Lion actually booked rehearsal time for each session and PAID the musicians for that time! He really cared about the final product and you can hear it. I'm not saying the music is any BETTER than the freewheeling Prestige dates of the era, but it's CERTAINLY more polished. Wouldn't you agree?
