Wildflowers 2 (The New York Loft Jazz Sessions)

Various · 1977 · Vinyl-LP · US · NBLP 7046

Recorded May 14 thru May 23, 1976 at Studio Rivbea, 24 Bond Street, New York, New York. ℗ © 1977 Casablanca Records & Filmworks, Inc. Note: 1. Due to technical live recording problems, the beginning of "The Need To Smile" was not properly recorded. The producers felt the performance strong enough to include it with a logical beginning at the soprano saxophone solo. 2. "73°-S Kelvin" is an excerpt of a continuous performance. 3. "And Then They Danced" is presented here in its entirety. It fades rather than ends with applause because it was part of a continuous set where one composition followed into the next. "T1" , "TH" and "CTH" etched in runouts denotes a Columbia, Terre Haute pressing variant. Compare with this similar Pitman version [r12453192] which uses a different text layout on labels.
