| | Rahsaan Roland Kirk Case Of The 3 Sided Dream CD - Import Rahsaan Roland Kirk Discography of CDs
Also available in a 2-CD set with Yusef Lateef's PART OF THE SEARCH.
From its typically grandiloquent title to its unique structure--the original vinyl album did have three sides, with the fourth left blank--this 1975 album is one of Rahsaan Roland Kirk's all-time classics. SGT. PEPPER-style concept albums are a rarity in jazz, with most jazz concept records based on thematically similar songs or arrangements, which makes Kirk's extended reverie on dreams, lost youth, and jazz history that much more impressive. This album is structured like a Mobius strip, with several songs appearing twice in wildly different arrangements and contexts (there's even a 20-second tape of a movie stampede called "Horses [Monogram/Republic]" that appears later played backwards and titled "Sesroh"), and studded with spoken-word interludes all titled "Dream." THE CASE OF THE THREE-SIDED DREAM IN AUDIO COLOR is simultaneously nostalgic and forward-looking, with the heartbreaking original "Echoes of Primitive Ohio and Chili Dogs" and the stunning Scott Joplin tribute "The Entertainer (Done in the Style of the Blues)" as its melancholy centerpieces.
Remastered reissue packaged in a digipak. Warner Jazz. 2004.

Case Of The 3 Sided Dream
$15.39  
First off, these "Lost Sessions" were never actually lost. The music here was supposed to be released as the Stan Getz Quartet's first issue on A&M, and for the usual record company reasons, it was shelved instead. The tapes were in the vault and catalogs, so it's not like they were found in someone's closet. The bottom line is that Getz, already ill at this point, still had the goods. Produced by Herb Alpert (a genius in his own right even if his records don't always hold up), the bossas here are tough, innovative jazz tunes mainly written by Getz's pianist, Kenny Barron. Don't look for the gentle side of Getz ...
