Outward Bound is the debut album by jazz multi-instrumentalist Eric Dolphy, released in 1960...

Regarding "G.W.", J. Hunter wrote: "While the rest of the band lays down beats and fills that would not be out of place on any bop date, Dolphy steps out of the head to blister us with a mind-boggling, lightning-fingered alto solo that threatens to go over a cliff at any moment. Dolphy and his partners maintain this unorthodox balancing act throughout the 1960 session." - Wikipedia

Outward Bound is the debut album by jazz multi-instrumentalist Eric Dolphy, released in 1960. It is oriented towards straight bebop, and slightly less adventurous than the majority of his later recordings. The album was recorded at Van Gelder Studio in New Jersey and features Dolphy in a quintet with trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, pianist Jaki Byard, bassist George Tucker and drummer Roy Haynes. Hubbard had shared living space with Dolphy when they both first arrived in New York City. The cover artwork was by Dolphy's friend Richard "Prophet" Jennings - Wikipedia

Helen Merrill is the debut studio album by vocalist Helen Merrill, on which she is accompanied by trumpeter Clifford Brown in arrangements by Quincy Jones. Brown had recorded a similar album with Sarah Vaughan only a few days previously, on December 16 and 18, 1954.

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The music is essentially straight-ahead bop, yet the seven standards ... are uplifted by the presence of Merrill (in top form) and Brown." In a review of a 2007 reissue of Merrill's first two albums by Lone Hill Jazz, David Rickert singled out the performance of "'S Wonderful" as "one of the best versions of the Gershwin tune I've heard in years" and called the two sessions "a vocal jazz feast well worth deserving of more renown." - Wikipedia

Sheila Jordan (1928–2025)
Zpívala tiše, ale slyšela všechno. Hlas Detroitu, který nestál o potlesk, ale o pravdu mezi tóny. Vzpomínka na jazzovou zpěvačku, jejíž kariéra se nikdy neřídila hlukem doby.

Jazz Giant is a studio album by jazz pianist Bud Powell, released on Norgran in 1950, featuring two sessions that Powell recorded for Norman Granz in 1949 and 1950.

The first session, with Ray Brown and Max Roach, took place on February 23, 1949, after Powell obtained a temporary release from Creedmoor State Hospital where he was receiving psychiatric treatment,[3] and represents his second recording date as leader (the first being his Roost session in 1947 – see Bud Powell Trio). The second, with Curley Russell and Roach, is from February 1950, post-dating his first Blue Note session for The Amazing Bud Powell. - Wikipedia

play a Blue Note
Der Blue Note jazz der 50er und 60er Jahre des 20. Jh. prägt bis heute unser Bild von Jazz. hektische Musik für Nerds oder das Gegenteil: absolute Easy Listening-Fahrstuhlmusik. Beides gibt es natürlich, aber eigentlich war Jazz die Musik der Straße, der Bordelle und Honkytonks.

Blue Note Records, 1939 von zwei deutschen Emigranten in New York gegründet, wurde damit berühmt und legendär, dass sie die Jam-Sessions nach den eigentlichen Abendshows aufnahmen. Oft sehr experimentelle Töne, nicht selten unter dem Einfluss von Drogen und Alkohol. Diese fibrige Musik wurde nicht nur weltweit bekannt, sondern gilt für viele als der Klischee-Jazz.

Was man sicher sagen kann, ist, dass es 1962 die Welt erobert hatte.

Complete 1945-1949 West Coast Recordings by Charles Mingus, released on The Jazz Factory in 2001.

Complete 1945-1949 West Coast Recordings Review by Steve Leggett

This is a collection of extremely rare California recordings featuring Charles Mingus in a postwar small band format (the bands go under a variety of names, including Baron Mingus and His Octet, Baron Mingus and His Rhythm, Baron Mingus and His Symphonic Airs, Charles Mingus Sextet) and a couple tracks in a big band setting (as Baron Mingus and His 22 Piece Bebop Band), featuring some of Stan Kenton's players. There is nothing too startling or innovative here, but the pieces are solid and upbeat, and Mingus' fine bass playing is on display on cuts like "Shuffle Bass Boogie," "Mingus Fingers," and "These Foolish Things," while his scat singing is featured on "Boppin' in Boston." A young Miles Davis is rumored to be on several of these tracks...
