       │ To all the funky jazz squirrels and bunnies out there.       ││
       │ Enjoy this great 3CD set.  MiNDSCAPE bringing it to you once ││
       │ again.                                                       ││

       │ Despite its mixed sonic quality, Bopland is a historic       ││
       │ three-CD treasure. It contains as much as could be gleaned   ││
       │ from surviving acetates of a July 6, 1947 jazz summit        ││
       │ featuring some of the West Coast's finest emerging musicians ││
       │ at the time. It was a mere two to three years after Charlie  ││
       │ Parker and his collaborators began changing the face of      ││
       │ modern jazz, principally in New York.                        ││
       │                                                              ││
       │ This evening concert at the Elks Club in L.A.ùbilled as an   ││
       │ evening for dancers as much as pure listenersùfeatured four  ││
       │ different combinations of players. Among the featured        ││
       │ soloists were saxophonists Dexter Gordon, Wardell Gray, and  ││
       │ Sonny Criss; trumpeters Howard McGhee and Al Killian;        ││
       │ trombonist Trummy Young, guitarist Barney Kessel, and        ││
       │ teenage pianist Hampton Hawes.                               ││
       │                                                              ││
       │ Gordon's extended solo showcase on ôCherokeeö (called        ││
       │ ôGeronimoö here) and ôBop After Hoursö are among the         ││
       │ highlights. A 20-minute version of ôPerdidoö (featuring      ││
       │ veteran tenor players Bill Moore and Gene Montgomery) seemed ││
       │ to get the wildest crowd response that night. It pales in    ││
       │ musical comparison to an 18-minute version of ôThe Huntö     ││
       │ that was primarily an extended tenor sax battle between the  ││
       │ younger Gordon and Gray.                                     ││
       │                                                              ││
       │ The latter tune soon surfaced in an eight-part series of 78  ││
       │ rpm recordings on producer Ralph Bass' Bop! Records. The     ││
       │ inventiveness and ideas make the music fresh and             ││
       │ interesting, even 57 years later. And it makes me wonder if  ││
       │ they were recordings that caught the ear of Ellington tenor  ││
       │ great Paul Gonsalves. The raw energy of those solos predated ││
       │ his historic one-man, 27-chorus tenor ôbattleö at Newport in ││
       │ 1956.                                                        ││
