0442 Ronnie Scott [Live At Ronnie Scotts] FLAC 7(47.19)

Contributed by grumpy

Review by Michael Shera – Jazz Journal June 1969.
Ronnie Scott has assembled a band containing some of Britain's best musicians, an admirable blend of youth and experience. At least two of these musicians, John Surman and Kenny Wheeler are in world class as
soloists, though only John Surman has so far been recognised as such. The programme opens with Joe Henderson's latinesque Recorda Me, where the leader gets off to a good start solo-wise. Gordon Beck's piano solo is somewhat under-recorded. Laurie Holloway wrote King Pete, and John Surman's soprano solo is featured on this fast blues. He builds his solo very effectively, using rapid, staccato phrases and generating tremendous swing, backed by superb bass-playing from Ron Matthewson and the ferocious aggression of the two percussionists. Second Question is Kenny Wheeler's tune, Chris Pyne's relaxed trombone solo being backed by Gordon Beck on organ, who also produces a pleasant chorus or two. Marma-sita, another Joe Henderson tune and another blues, finds the leader in exceptionally Mob-leyesque mood, and is again noteworthy for fine work by Matthewson. Altoist Ray Warleigh also blows hot on this one, backed by assorted latin percussion, and Gordon Beck (on piano) duets with Matthewson. John Surman's baritone is featured on Mike Westbrook's Too Late Too Late, demonstrating his incredible range on the instrument, as well as his invention and drive. Kenny Wheeler's masterly playing on Lord Of The Reedy River makes this track the album's highspot for me; as Peter Clayton points out, it must be hard to play a ballad on flugelhorn without sounding like Miles Davis and Clark Terry—and yet Wheeler makes it seem no problem at all. Gordon Beck wrote Macumba, at ten minutes the longest track on a record notable not least for its generous playing time. Matthewson is again exceptional in the rhythm section. The solo order is Scott, Pyne, Warleigh, Beck and Matthewson.

0418 Harry South [North Of The Soho Border] FLAC 23(55.58)

Contributed by delmonico, who writes:-
Almost an hour of Harry South's Big Band in a BBC Jazz Club broadcast from 8 November 1965.  Some big names here, including Tubby Hayes and a few vocals from Georgie Fame. What a pity that there were so few commercial recordings of this band although the personnel fluctuated over it's life depending upon availability of the musicians.
This was ripped from a cassette given to me by a musician friend. There is some sound disturbance for the first minute or so. Otherwise the home taping sound is reasonable for the period. Not sure what the original sound format was (my CDR shows up as CDDA) but it appears here as FLAC with a 'cover picture' and full details.

This is the Scott Orchestra contribution to the 'Jazz Scene 1956' concert at the Royal Festival Hall, London.
The material is surprisingly mainstream for this band at this time and there are no surprises in the music. There are far better earlier examples of what the band could do, but this is a scarce record and only one of the tracks has been re-issued on cd.
It was the last recording of this band and there are still 3 unissued tracks, including an Annie Ross vocal.  One for a Vocalion cd re-issue of the whole set?

Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
More rare music from the 1954 Ronnie Scott 9 piece group recorded before an enthusiastic audience at the Criterion Restaurant, London originally for a BBC Overseas Service broadcast.
Try to ignore the indifferent sound, ripped from a beat-up lp, and just enjoy the music.
There are feature spots for the main players and the 'vocal' on 'Oo-Shoo-Bee-Doo-Bee' must be a first for Ronnie Scott and his future partner in the Club, tenor player Pete King (not to be confused with the alto player of the same name).
FLAC from CDR of lp with small cover picture and track/personnel details.

We would like to make clear that the sound is not up to the usual standards but the rarity value overrides that consideration.

Contributed by bellawoods, who writes:-
This is last recording session of the Ronnie Scott nine piece Orchestra from April 1955.
By this time, Ronnie was moving away from his Lester Young sound and sounds very 'modern' here. A great band with few recordings and a nice version of John Lewis' 'Sil Vous Plait' which seems to be the only other recording of this tune since Lewis wrote and played it in the Miles Davis Nonet back in 1949.
Phil Seamen, who seemed to be on everyone's recordings in the 1950s, drives the band along with his usual verve.

0170 Ronnie Scott [Battle Royal] FLAC 13(52.20)

Contributed by bluebird, who writes:
Various Ronnie Scott groups from the 1951/52 period including an interesting session with Kenny Graham and his Afro-Cubist rhythm section.
The long track, 'All The Things You Are', was cut direct to disc at the end of a normal Esquire session and was one of the earliest so recorded. Coupled with another long track similarly recorded (not here but will be presented  in the future) they formed the whole of one 10" lp when originally issued.
Sound, as usual from these Esquire re-issue lp recordings, is not the best but perhaps adds a certain period charm.
