Concert of the Century – A Tribute to Charlie Parker Dizzy Gillespie & Friends SKU: 0068944025916 Barcode: 068944025916 20.00 £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Justin Time Records Released Date: 7th November 2016 Buying Format: 180g 2LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info On a cold November evening in 1980, 3000 jazz fans filled the Salle Wilfrid Pelletier Hall of Place des Arts in Montreal, Quebec to attend what promised to be, a swinging evening featuring six of the biggest names in bebop. Billed The Concert of the Century – A Tribute to Charlie Parker, and under the direction of Dizzy Gillespie – one of the best jazz trumpeters of all time – the event featured legendary performers: Hank Jones – piano, Ray Brown – bass, Milt Jackson – vibes, Philly Joe Jones – drums and James Moody on tenor sax and flute. Local club owner Roue Doudou Boicel, who produced the concert, had the foresight to record the concert in its entirety. A limited quantity bootleg LP of the concert soon appeared and then disappeared from the marketplace, those tapes lay dormant for over 30 years. This historic recording opens with rapturous applause that sets the tone with Dizzy’s own “Blues ‘N’ Boogie.” Also featured are several classic standards – some more well known then others – including “Darben The Redd Foxx,” “Time On My Hands,” “Get Happy,” “The Shadow Of Your Smile” and “Stardust.” All the players are at the top of their game and having a blast, as evidenced by the banter and repartee between songs. Concert of the Century, pristinely restored and remastered, features two tracks that weren’t on the original pressing from the early ‘80s – Ralph Rainger’s “If I Should Lose You” and an incredible eight minute bass solo by Ray Brown. Featured on the Justin Time Essentials Collection – it will be available as a gatefold 180g 2LP-set. Musicians: Dizzy Gillespie, trumpet Ray Brown, bass Hank Jones, piano Philly Joe Jones, drums Milt Jackson, vibraphone James Moody, tenor saxophone/flute Features: • Gatefold 180g 2LP-set • Pristinely restored & remastered 1980 live recording • First time available on wide release vinyl • 6 of the greatest jazz legends in their prime • Includes 2 bonus tracks not on original ’80s pressing • Featured on the Justin Time Essentials collection Artist Dizzy Gillespie & Friends Genre Jazz Label Justin Time Records Buying Options 180g 2LP Format 180g , 2LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings LP1 Blue ‘n' Boogie If I Should Lose You Darben the Redd Foxx Time On My Hands LP2 Get Happy The Shadow of Your Smile Bass Solo/Manhã de Carnaval/Work Song featuring Ray Brown Stardust Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz View Product Quick View Elvin Jones Genesis Jazz | Third Man Records / Blue Note | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 22nd September 2023 £42.00 - £46.00 Select options Elvin Jones Genesis £42.00 - £46.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Third Man Records / Blue Note Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Billie Holiday At Storyville Jazz | ORG / Black Lion | 180g, 1LP Released 13th April 2015 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Billie Holiday At Storyville £32.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG / Black Lion SKU: OMLPB1058 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 13th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Diana Krall All For You Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 9th March 2016 £69.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Diana Krall All For You £69.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: ORGLP000645 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 9th March 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Ella & Louis – Classic Album Collection Jazz | Vinyl Passion | 180g, 3LP Released 9th January 2012 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Ella & Louis – Classic Album Collection £30.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Vinyl Passion SKU: VP80500 Formats: 180g, 3LP Released Date: 9th January 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hank Mobley Mobley’s Message Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 1LP Released 15th September 2012 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Hank Mobley Mobley’s Message £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: APRJ7061 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 15th September 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cannonball Adderley Portraits In Jazz Live At The Half Note Jazz | Hi Hat | 1LP Released 10th March 2017 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cannonball Adderley Portraits In Jazz Live At The Half Note £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Hi Hat SKU: HHLP3054 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th March 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Hodges With Billy Strayhorn Jazz | Analogue Productions | SACD Released 8th May 2020 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Johnny Hodges With Billy Strayhorn £30.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: CVRJ8452SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 8th May 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Stanley Clarke Time Exposure Electronica | Epic | 1LP Released 24th October 2023 £12.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Stanley Clarke Time Exposure £12.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Epic SKU: nn275007 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th October 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Sonny Rollins Freedom Weaver: The 1959 European Tour Recording Jazz | Resonance Records | 180g, 4LP, Box Set Released 10th May 2024 £79.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Sonny Rollins Freedom Weaver: The 1959 European Tour Recording £79.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Resonance Records SKU: HLP-9065 Formats: 180g, 4LP, Box Set Released Date: 10th May 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists New Horizons: A Bristol Jazz Sound Jazz | Worm Discs | 2LP Released 4th September 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists New Horizons: A Bristol Jazz Sound £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Worm Discs SKU: WDSCS1LP Formats: 2LP Released Date: 4th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
