Tony Williams Discography

Postby matthughen » Tue Nov 09, 2010 6:58 pm

I have a Tony Williams compilation consisting of 40+ solos and performances spanning from 64-94 that I am going to seed on DIME in the very near future. One of the last details is a discography page to be included in the DVD menu page. Is there anything that has been left out of the Wikipedia discog page?
I found one: Carols Santana - Swing of Delight [edit] found another Hal Galper's Now Hear This

I appreciate any and all input.
TIA

Added too. Thanks.
Putting this DVD together has been quite a learning experience. For one thing, I have discovered new recordings to check out.

Have you got some Jan Hammer/Tony Williams Group stuff?

There's a show form the 1991 Montreal Jazz Fest that was broadcasted and released on DVD. I have it on VHS. A young Jordan Rudess was with them at the time.

I happened to be in NYC in 91 and saw the show at the Blue Note, front table, amazing!

There's a V.S.O.P. album called Five Stars - released in Japan. I also have an double CD of him playing live with Chick Corea in Japan - late 70s. I think this was only released in Japan as well though.

Favorite live recorded drum solos post Miles:

V.S.O.P. Live Under The Sky - One of Another Kind
V.S.O.P. Tempest in the Coliseum - Eye of the Hurricane
V.S.O.P. The Quintet - Byrdlike
Great Jazz Trio Live at the Village Vanguard - Moose the Mooch
Tony Williams Live in Tokyo - every solo
