Carmell Jones left Horace Silver's group in June 1965 and was replaced by Woody Shaw. Accustomed to the west coast scene, Jones felt stifled in New York. He was also becoming disenchanted by life in the United States. After witnessing the tragic Watts Riots in Los Angeles in August 1965, Jones had had enough of the racial tension that plagued America at the time. Soon afterward, he fled for Europe, landing first in Germany to perform at the Stuttgart Jazz Festival with his childhood friend, saxophonist Nathan Davis.

German jazz critic Joachim Berendt, who had heard Jones in Kansas City years earlier, recommended that he stay in Germany to perform and record. The trumpeter consented, moved to Berlin, where he joined the SFB Big Band and Orchestra. SFB stands for 'Sender Freies Berlin,' which means 'Radio Free Berlin." Jones was contracted as a soloist, composer, arranger, and musical consultant. When the SFB groups were not touring, they recorded in the studio for eight hours a day.

In 1969, Prestige released Carmell Jones in Europe: 1965-66. Two of the six tracks were recorded live at the 1966 Frankfurt Jazz Festival with Leo Wright and Pony Poindexter on altos, Fritz Pauer on piano, vocalist Annie Ross, Andre Condouant on guitar, bassist Jimmy Woode, and drummer Joe Nay. The other four songs were taken from the same September 1, 1965 session that produced Nathan Davis's The Hip Walk, featuring fellow expatriate Kenny Clarke on drums.

Jones became a star in Europe and would travel and perform throughout the continent until 1980, including trips to most Eastern Bloc countries. During his stay overseas he was consistently in high demand as a soloist; Jones was a member of Oliver Nelson's Berlin Dream Band in 1970 and had an extended association with altoist Leo Wright. He also performed with many of the leading American jazz orchestras as they passed through Europe, including Quincy Jones, Don Ellis, and Stan Kenton. Jones led his own big band for a time, performed at most of the major European festivals, played with the Berlin Symphony, and composed for radio, TV, and movies.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VG++. A few light abrasions  ARE VISIBLE, but they appear fairly  insignificant relative to the overall condition of the vinyl, and are only moderately visually distracting. For most part, the vinyl looks impeccable, without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
