The New DESOR corrections
DEMS 11/1-27
We remind you that these
corrections are merely suggestions. They are not (yet) accepted by the authors
of the New DESOR.
Pages 33, 36 and 1369. Session 3803, 2Feb38: add after Lost in
Meditation: JP LP-14.
Session 3814, 5May38 should be deleted.
LP 0449, Jazz Panorama LP-14: track B01 is 3803c and not 3814a. It should no
longer be underlined. See 11/1-12
Page 60. Session 4201, 21Jan42. My copy of Victor 27856 has take 2A in
the wax on side A Moon Mist. This is also reported in the booklet of the
24 CD box Duke Ellington, The Complete RCA Victor Recordings (1927-1973), RCA
09026-63386-2. The alternative take -1 was originally issued on the French LP
RCA FXM1 7301.
Bo Scherman
Moon Mist, take -2, has pauses in the intro, which
take -1 doesn't have.
Sjef Hoefsmit
Pages 376 and 1359. The New DESOR states that DE6439nj, the second
version of Mood Indigo from the 6439n medley, is unissued.
However, it is included on the Foxy 9001 LP. Both versions of Mood Indigo
are present, and the medley appears to be complete on the LP.
Brian Koller
You are right. This must have
been a slip of the pen, because the Medley is listed as completely issued in
the old Desor as 934l on page 688 of Volume 13. Maybe the confusion is due to
the fact that this last part of the Medley was not mentioned on the jacket of
the Foxy LP, although other errors on that jacket have not been copied. The
structure is documented in The New DESOR on page 1029, but I prefer the
structure as mentioned in the old Desor, with a coda of 2 bars.
Sjef Hoefsmit
Page 433. Session 6650, 26Jun66. The Medley 6650a is released on the
DVD "The Best of the Dean Martin Variety Show Volume 20" Guthy-Renker
DV0046 copyrighted 2004
This Medley was followed by an awful "sing along with Dean" Medley
(see 04/1-31), which is not on this DVD.
Brian Koller
Page 984. DE3605b, Kissin' My Baby Goodnight, should be
2°IA&DE instead of 2°IA.
Brian Koller
Page 993. DE3610, Lazy Man's Shuffle. The New DESOR
describes this as
1°4BAND,8JH;2°4BAND&CBk,8CBk;3°(nc)8LB;4°BAND&JH;5°(nc)8HC;6°4BAND,8RS;cod8CBk
but RS, the composer, is often in the foreground, and it appears the
description should be
1°4RS,8JH;2°4RS&CBk,8CBk;3°(nc)8LB;4°RS&JH;5°(nc)8HC;6°4BAND&RS,8RS;cod8CBk&SG
Brian Koller
Page 1036. Moonlight Fiesta. The description for 3502c
should be "Same as 3502b" since it also has "cod2BAND,2DE".
Brian Koller
Page 1113. DE3612a, Scattin' at the Kit Kat. The New DESOR
describes this recording, 21Dec36, without a Cootie Williams trumpet
introduction. And, indeed, there is no CW trumpet intro on The New DESOR Disc
0269 [page 1324] Track D01 (CBS 2LP The Complete DE Vol. 7).
However, believe it or not, there is a Cootie Williams trumpet introduction on
the version of 3612a on The New DESOR Disc 0919, track B19, correction sheet
3030 (Best of DE Sony&BMG 4CD). This CW trumpet intro differs from that on
3702c and 3702d, 5Mar37, since Sonny Greer's drumming is readily audible on the
trumpet intro on those two later recordings but is not audible on the Sony 4CD
3612a.
Brian Koller
See also DEMS Bulletin 82/3-5 last item on
the page. Mosaic MD11-248, Disc VI, track 11 is (obviously) also complete.
DEMS
Page 1323. LP 266, CBS 88035, "The Complete Duke Ellington -
Vol.4":
A02 is 3205b not 3205a, A03 is 3205a not 3205b.
Brian Koller
Page 1323. LP 267, CBS 88082, "The Complete Duke Ellington -
Vol.5":
Both takes of Merry Go Round (B03 and B04) are DE3302a.
Brian Koller
Page 1324. LP 268, CBS 88137, "The Complete Duke Ellington -
Vol.6":
Track B02 Moonlight Fiesta is 3502c instead of 3502b. Track B04 is 3502b
instead of 3502c.
Brian Koller
Page 1327. LP 278, CBS 88653, "Duke 56/62-Vol. 1": Track D01 Track
360 is 5804xp instead of 5804a.
Also correction-sheet 1007, session 5804, 4Feb58 should be corrected.
Brian Koller
Page 1333. LP 236, Columbia CL-2365, "The Ellington Era Volume Two
- Part III", track A04 Pyramid is listed as 3819e but it is 3819d.
Brian Koller
Thanks to the new Mosaic release, your statement could be checked and
confirmed.
DEMS
Page 1422. LP 734, The Old Masters 44, "Duke Ellington Opens the
Cave - Volume One"
Track B04, the first listing of Don't Get Around Much Anymore from the
first column should be Don't You Know I Care? instead of
"same" in the second column.
Brian Koller
Correction-sheet 1053, session 3403, 26Feb34. All four takes of Ebony
Rhapsody are designated as unissued, but 3403a and 3403b have since been
issued on New DESOR Disc 0919 (4CDset "The Best of Duke Ellington",
Sony&BMG 88697302362, correction-sheet 3030), and 3403d is issued on New DESOR
DVD 0924 "Pre-code Hollywood Collection" Universal 61106092,
correction-sheet 3031).
Brian Koller
Correction-sheet 3029, 0915 DVD Eagle Vision "Duke
Ellington at the Côte d' Azur".
The first 12 seconds of Such Sweet Thunder (Track 103) are from DE6664m.
The rest is from DE6665j, as stated.
Brian Koller
I agree. I would say the first chorus is from 28Jul66, DE6664. The rest (chorus
2 - 7) is from 29Jul66, DE6665.
