Giants Steps Records BSIN02321260 (2 CD-Set) Gillespie, Dizzy - Dizzy Digs Paris Dizzy Gillespie – Dizzy Digs Paris
The complete 9 February 1953 Salle Pleyel Concert on CD for the first time plus the rare 10-inch LP by The Wade Legge Trio.
Dizzy dug Paris and, in turn, the Parisians dug Dizzy Big Time. And, never more so than when his sextet captivated a standing-room-only audience of jazz aficionados at the Salle Pleyel on the evening of February 9, 1953.
Dizzy's crew comprised seasoned bebop campaigners, baritone sax man Bill Graham and ebullient bebop babbler Joe "Bebop" Carroll. The entire rhythm section was made up of young wannabes - Wade Legge (piano), Lou Hackney (bass) and Al Jones (drums).
Unbilled was an impromptu one song appearance by Sarah Vaughan ('Embraceable You') In their original manifestation, the tapes of this memorable occasion were brutally edited with both solos and entire performances being binned.
NOW, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER ON CD, Giant Steps offers a newly remastered and unedited version of that evening's events with a number of butchered solos fully restored plus the addition of Bill Graham's previously discarded showcase 'I Don't Stand A Ghost Of A Chance' for which Dizzy makes a rare appearance on piano.
