.. Bill Dixon Quartet / Incl. 12p Booklet |
|
| Description: | For approximately 18 months (from the fall
of 1961 to June 1963), Archie Shepp and Bill
Dixon co-led a group that varied in size between
a quartet, quintet and sextet, depending on
the gig. They mostly played coffee houses
and small theaters in Greenwich Village, and
traveled to Scandinavia in July 1962 for a
series of concerts at the socialist-leaning First
International Youth Festival in Helsinki. Back
in the United States, they were featured in a
regular series of radio performances on New
Yorkâ??s WBAI. However, unless any unknown
radio broadcast or live European performance
surfaces, their only recorded works together
consist of the studio quartet album made for
Savoy in October 1962, presented on this CD
EDITION. Archie Sheppâ??s only other recording
session for the Savoy label, including Don
Cherry on one track, and Bill Dixonâ??s second
recording session, in a septet format, have
been added as a bonus. - .. BILL DIXON QUARTET / INCL. 12P BOOKLETLimited Edition CD- release with 12-page booklet.

This reissue is nearly identical to both [r=2491096] (2009) and [r=11219515] (2013). The CD content is identical; the booklet has been redesigned, but the written and photographic content is identical apart from the updated date (2022) on Albert Michael's essay, and the addition of the image reproduced on the booklet's rear side.
As compared to both the original [r=2464127] and the BYG reissues of the '70s, these reissues follow the 2001 Atlantic CD [r=2125608] in reversing the song titles of 'The 12th December' (3:13) and the six-section suite 'Winter Song 1964' (14:41). One must assume this was a mistake at Savoy only corrected for the 2001 release, given the track times and subtitles. |
