The Avett Brothers – Live, Volume 3

Their first major label release, I And Love And You, may have reflected more-mature production and craftsman-like arrangements, but live performances by The Avett Brothers retain the hard-driving, extremely loose, spirit and hillbilly-meets-punk amalgam of folk, country, rock and bluegrass that has brought the brother-led group to the forefront of contemporary acoustic music. Recorded before a hometown crowd, at Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina, in August 2009, a month prior to the release of “I And Love And You,†the Avetts’ third live album documents the unabashed joy of their shows. The passion is sometimes overwhelming, such as when Scott Avett forgets the words of “The Ballad Of Love And Hate,†and is forced to stop and start again. Though the emphasis is on tunes from I And Love And You (“Head Full Of Doubt/Road Full Of Promise,†“The Perfect Spaceâ€, “Kick Drum Heart,†and the title track), the 16-song set touches on every step of the Avett Brothers’ decade-long climb. —Craig Harris (Chicopee, MA)

“The Quintet†– Complete Jazz at Massey Hall

Jazz at Massey Hall is a renowned jazz album featuring a live performance by “The Quintet†on 15 May 1953 at Massey Hall in Toronto. The quintet was composed of some of the time’s biggest names in jazz: Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Bud Powell, Charles Mingus, and Max Roach. It was the only time that the five men recorded together as a unit, and it was the last recorded meeting of Parker and Gillespie. Parker played a Grafton saxophone on this date; he could not be listed on the original album cover for contractual reasons, so was billed as “Charlie Chan†(an allusion to the fictional detective and to Parker’s wife Chan). The record was originally issued on Mingus’s label Debut, from a recording made by the Toronto New Jazz Society. Mingus took the recording to New York where he and Max Roach dubbed in the bass lines, which were under-recorded on most of the tunes, and exchanged Mingus soloing on “All the Things You Are.â€

The original plan was for the Jazz Society and the musicians to share the profits from the recording. However the audience was so small that the Society was unable to pay the musicians’ fees. The musicians were all given NSF checks, and only Parker was able to actually cash his; Gillespie complained that he did not receive his fee “for years and yearsâ€.

A 2004 re-issue contains the full concert, without the over-dubbing which was added by Charles Mingus on the original recording. The new version was titled “Complete Jazz at Massey Hallâ€.

Jazz at Massey Hall was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1995. It is included in National Public Radio’s “Basic Jazz Libraryâ€. The concert was issued in some territories under the tag “the greatest jazz concert everâ€. —Wikipedia

Just saw velvet's name in the liner notes.

Wish I had had the opportunity to see these guys more than once. Just one night in Ottawa in 2006 in some tavern or another. Most of you Ottawa dinkosauri were there. Good times.

2006-07-08, at Irene's Pub, maybe? They also played there on 2006-11-25.

Aloha,

Brad

Nope. Would have been March, or possibly February.
