| Description |
The legendary 1956 Newport Concert is now twice as long and in stereo for the first time!
More than 100 minutes of new music!
His "comeback" concert set of Saturday night, July 7,1956, took the 7,000 jazz festival attendees to the brink of a riot during tenor saxophonist Paul Gonsalves? 27-chorus solo on the climactic "Diminuendo and Crescendo In Blue." Reissue Producer Phil Schaap solves the mystery of why bad microphone placement led Columbia to make Duke re-record his set in the studio on Monday (whence comes the bonus material) and how that music was passed off (with fake applause) as the Newport set for more than four decades. For the first time, the real hour-plus concert is issued (and it?s in stereo!); followed separately by the balance of the studio session. Liner notes: originals by producer George Avakian; and new liners by reissue producer, Phil Schaap. |
