Bill Dixon
The Complete Remastered Recordings on Black Saint (9CD Box)
A monographic box-set collection aimed at recounting the most beautiful chapters that revolutionised the history of jazz. This new series was launched in March 2010 with the simultaneous release of four box-sets, including albums by some of the artists who participated in the success of the outstanding labels. A philological work, beginning with the original recordings on multi-track master tapes, patiently integrally remastered paying strict attention to the sound quality. Bill Dixon organized and produced the October Revolution in Jazz in New York City and founded the Jazz Composers Guild. He was relatively little recorded during this period, though he co-led some releases with Archie Shepp and appeared on Cecil Taylor's Blue Note record Conquistador! in 1966. He played the trumpet, flugelhorn and piano, often using electronic delay and reverberation as part of his trumpet playing. This set features nine of Dixon's classic albums at a special low price." Albums: Bill Dixon In Italy - Volume One, Bill Dixon In Italy - Volume Two, November 1981, Thoughts, Son Of Sisyphus, Vade Mecum, Vade Mecum II, Papyrus - Volume I, Papyrus - Volume II.
