- knowing that this thread has been leaving out a major portion of the
- story of Circling In, i went home and got my copy last night. sure
- enough, everything stated by gidi above is spot on, right down to the
- guess at the length of the additional material.
-
- the remaining 2 and 1/2 sides of the 2 lps of Circling In is devoted
- to 2 1970 sessions of the band Circle (whence the album's title):
- Chick Corea, Anthony Braxton (winds), Dave Holland (bs) and Barry
- Altschul (dr). (Except for one lone cut, Blues Connotation, from an
- april '70 trio session with Holland and Altshul.)
-
- the album was released in 1975 as part of Bluenote's reissue twofer
- series, and was produced for release by Michael "reissue" Cuscuna.
- AND lengthy liners by Stanley Crouch. there was another bluenote
- reissue twofer of Circle-era Corea stuff called Circulus. i have no
- recollection whether it preceeded or succeeded this one.
-
- anyhow, tunes:
-
- May '68 w/ Vitous & Haynes:
- Bossa (Corea)
- Gemini My One and Only Love (Mellin/Wood)
- Fragments (Corea)
- Windows (Corea)
- Samba Yanta (Corea)
- I Don't Know (Corea)
- Pannonica (Monk)
-
- April '70 w/ Holland & Altschul:
- Blues Connotation (Coleman)
-
- October 13, '70 w/ Circle:
- Duet for Bass & Piano 1 & 2 (Corea/Holland)
- Danse for Clarinet & Piano 1 & 2 (Corea/Braxton)
- Chimes, pts 1 & 2 (Corea/Holland/Braxton)
-
- October 19, '70 w/ Circle:
- Starp (Holland)
- "73o-A./Kelvin" (Composition 6F) (Braxton)
- Ballad (Corea/Holland/Braxton/Altschul)
-
-
- i've got Circulus as well, and can post similar info if there's
- interest. (wish i'd brought it in today... )
