In Reply to: RE: Oops. Yep, Blue Note. Re: unreleased recordings...... posted by Rick W on July 23, 2017 at 11:20:21
I seem to recall reading somewhere that the label thought at least some of the recordings were not typical of the artist and therefore would not get a positive reception. And, too, I think there were those that were a whole lot like others and were held back for later release. But when Lion sold the label-to Liberty if I remember correctly-that company really screwed things up and the plans for later release were never followed.
Follow Ups:
other previously unreleased Blue Notes, including stuff by Lee Morgan and Jackie McLean among others.
I'm sure that's true, but there were quite a few that didn't get released until Capitol bought the label as I recall. But I'm relying on memory here, which these days is sometimes faulty.
Let's just be glad it happened, however it did.
I am a big proponent of Blue Note. This is still a thriving label under the helm of Don Was. As above, smack, was very relevant in the 50-60's among the Jazz players. You would have been hard-pressed to find a player that did not use it? Really took a toll on Chet Baker and Art pepper.
