(may be from “Young Miles Vol. 2 1946,” Masters Of Jazz, MJCD 151)
(set originally split into 5 tracks: Just you: 7:59, announcement :06, don’t blame me intro, :03, don’t blame me, 8:58, georgia brown, 7:30)
(see http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Sessions.asp?s=460331)

Made into one track.
Izotope RX > attenuated buzz at around 16k – not too audible but clears the top end a little (from 3min 50 to end of source)
Very light noise reduction – mostly to remove the vinyl rumble and low hum occurring.
Inverted phase of right channel to make the whole thing mono.
Normalised.
Exported, into audacity where I redid track markers, and exported as flac8 – including the announcment track initially removed.

From a tape made by Donald Coy. Edited to Parker solos and exchanges. The tape was recorded off a dressing room speaker, and parts of some items (“Embraceable You” through “All the Things You Are”) are marred by conversation. It’s unlikely that the titles from this session and the next one are all from the same date, but they’re probably from the same gig.

a Flambay – u014945 production

The Sound was pretty good
Just a bit ‘dusty’ so I used 3 CEP utilities to remove pos and clicks and
after that I had only to remove very few clicks

The right channell needed normalization too

I have also divided Mc intro from tracks so that those ,
(like Myself) who don’t like
listening to people shouting before tracks ,
can leave such things out.

  • d1t04 is cut at the end

  • d1t06 is an additional fragment for “Wahoo” missing the start and finish
  • d1t07 is cut at the end
  • d1t08 is a fragment missing both the start and finish
  • d1t09 is an additional fragment of “I can’t get started” missing the start and finish
  • This recording not for the casual listener. This is one of those that is definetely
    for completists only. There are more flaws to this than I can list, but it is a
    piece of history and is worth preserving none the less.
  • Thanks to Peter Losin for contributing this source source. http://www.plosin.com/
  • “Very fragmentary — edited to Parker solos for the most part. These may be dubs of
    wire recordings; fidelity is very poor throughout.”- Credit to Peter Losin,
    http://www.plosin.com/
  • “Philology W 844 contains 22 titles purporting to be from this date, but I’m skeptical.
    First, the trumpet player sounds like Kenny Dorham, not Davis. Second, Frank Loesser’s
    tune “On a Slow Boat to China” was not copyrighted until 1948, and Parker’s “Barbados”
    was not recorded in the studio until the Savoy date on September 18, 1948. It’s very
    unusual for a Parker original to appear in the live repertoire before it has been
    recorded. Third, Parker’s quotations and his playing (especially during his solo on the
    second “Slow Boat to China”) sound like 1949, not 1947. The Parker Quintet (with Dorham,
    Haig, Potter, and Roach, and guest vocalist Arthur Daniels) were booked for two weeks
    at Chicago’s Pershing Hotel Ballroom (March 28-April 10, 1949), and my guess is that
    those 22 tunes were recorded during this gig. If so, Davis was half a country away in
    New York at the Royal Roost and Capitol Recording Studios.” – Credit to Peter Losin,

Various Artists – Monterey, CA (06/16-18/67)

Various Artists
Monterey Pop Festival
County Fairgrounds
Monterey, CA
June 16-18, 1967

The Monterey Pop Festival was held June 16 – 18, 1967 at the County Fairgrounds in Monterey, California, also the site of established folk, jazz and blues festivals. It was the first large rock festival, with around 200,000 people attending, and served as a template for the Woodstock Festival in New York State two years later. Many of the performers got their first big-time exposure at Monterey.

Great production for the Italian Bootleg label “On Stage”, made in the 1994.
Six cd for three Volums to witness THE FIRST BIG ROCK FESTIVAL

Maybe this is not the most complete show (anyway, see the tracklist)… for sure, it’s a great show in a very amazing quality audio.

There has been several requests for a FLAC16 version of this show. I hope I am not a sinner by offering this up. I merely wanted to make sure it could be accessed by more people. All thanks, credit, and praise goes to Sir Mick, and his anon. source! This is merely my transfer of it into the .flac16 realm. So, that additional lineage is listed above.
