Zoot Sims & Dick Nash Octet • Nashville

 

 

You're in for a huge treat, but you don't know it yet. Back in the 10-inch LP days, on February 14, 1955, tenor saxophonist Zoot Sims was in Los Angeles cutting a four-track session for Jump Records, a Hollywood label founded by Clive Acker and Ed Kocher in 1944 just after the first AFM recording ban was settled.

The leader of the Jump date was Hall Daniels, a top studio arranger who went on to score the Beach Party movies and space age pop for Les Baxter.

The four tracks recorded that day at Hollywood's Radio Screen shot 2011-06-05 at 8.25.48 PM Recorders Studio were The Way You Look Tonight, Nash-ville, You Don't Know What Love Is and Compatibility. Nash-ville and Compatibility were Daniels originals. And all four were brilliantly arranged by Daniels in typical West Coast linear fashion, with harmonies sliding back and forth behind smooth solos.

Fortunately, Acker called for multiple alternate takes that Screen shot 2011-06-05 at 8.26.07 PM day—either to allow for run downs of the tracks or extra tape from which he could splice together choice solos. I say "fortunately" because all of the complete takes were issued. So if you love The Way You Look Tonight, as I do, you'll be wallowing in it—there are three in all.

Now here's the big news: While this rare recording has been Screen shot 2011-06-05 at 8.29.01 PM out of print for some time and can't be found at Amazon or eBay, I came across it hidden at iTunes. It's under Zoot Sims' name, and it's listed incorrectly as Nashville—as though Sims had recorded a country album in California in 1955. --- jazzwax.com

Te espera un gran placer, pero aún no lo sabes. De vuelta en los días de los LP de 10 pulgadas, el 14 de febrero de 1955, el saxofonista tenor Zoot Sims estaba en Los Ángeles grabando una sesión de cuatro pistas para Jump Records, un sello de Hollywood fundado por Clive Acker y Ed Kocher en 1944 justo después de que se resolviera la primera prohibición de grabación de AFM.

El líder de The Jump date fue Hall Daniels, un destacado arreglista de estudio que luego compuso la banda sonora de las películas Beach Party y Space age pop para Les Baxter.

Las cuatro pistas grabadas ese día en la Captura de Pantalla de Radio de Hollywood el 05/06/2011 a las 20: 25: 48 Recorders Studio fueron La Forma En Que Te Ves Esta Noche, Nash-ville, No Sabes Qué Es el Amor y la Compatibilidad. Nash-ville y Compatibility eran originales de Daniels. Y los cuatro fueron arreglados brillantemente por Daniels al estilo lineal típico de la Costa Oeste, con armonías deslizándose hacia adelante y hacia atrás detrás de solos suaves.

Afortunadamente, Acker solicitó múltiples tomas alternativas en esa captura de pantalla del 05/06/2011 a las 20: 26: 07 PM del día, ya sea para permitir el rodaje de las pistas o cinta adicional a partir de la cual podría unir solos selectos. Digo "afortunadamente" porque se emitieron todas las tomas completas. Entonces, si amas la Forma en que te ves Esta Noche, como yo, te revolcarás en ella, hay tres en total.

Ahora, aquí está la gran noticia: Si bien esta rara grabación ha sido capturada en pantalla el 05/06/2011 a las 20: 29: 01 HORAS agotada durante algún tiempo y no se puede encontrar en Amazon o eBay, la encontré escondida en iTunes. Está bajo el nombre de Zoot Sims, y aparece incorrectamente como Nashville, como si Sims hubiera grabado un álbum country en California en 1955. --- jazzwax.com
