Private collection of Bill Savory

Fantastic! What a great experience. At least they are able to make the recordings available to the general public in this way.

Apologies if this has been posted already, but there's a great hour-long interview with Loren Shoenberg here:

Loads of great sound samples, great interview.

Fingers crossed they can sort out the legal issues and get this stuff released.

Oh man, those clips are so tantalising. I especially loved the Lester and the Fats/Louis/Jack jam sessions.

Ya. Love the Pres clip. This stuff has been 'in the news' since 2010. Sure hope it makes it out to us all. I can almost guarantee that there is an 'inner circle' of collectors that have heard these in full and now own copies.

Well - the Blues Jam is a complete track, and if you accidentally look carefully through the page source, you can accidentally find the link to the MP3.

And accidentally download it.

Just saying

It would almost be a shame if there weren't... now how do we go about meeting such people?

I call the Harlem Jazz musuem every few months and inquire. It is always the same shit. Stuck in Legal hell...all we can do is continue waiting...I did go and get a chance to listen to the music...some of the stuff was incredible....although...the sound quality of most of the stuff had yet to go through another stage of cleaning...I cannot WAIT for the tunes to start coming out...

Let's hope it's soon.

I am guessing that the receipt date of the music is out of tgheir hands and in the hands of Doug Pomeroy, the restorer.

Is there a way to play them on the web site? And how did they get them?
Thx for pointing those out!

[CountBasi]

There's no where online I know of to play them except that 'Blues' track on that page already given previously in this thread.

The CD I mention was produced by a Swedish collector in 1993 who got hold of a copy of the original recording on a 12" 33rpm acetate and used it for this Ambassador CD issue.

Also, the date of the recording given on that webpage is two months off. Louis Armstrong was still on tour in October and November 1938 and didn't get back to NYC until early December. The actual date is December 14, 1938.

CountBasi-

Thx much for the info. Some web sites are just too inclusive as to sharing things.

Have a good Christmas!

Helps to live in NYC. And to make contributions to the cause of the music. And to be devoted to it and know just about everything about it. And to be chatty with someone in the circle.
