  • Prestige Label Discography
    Discography of the Prestige Labels Robert S. Weinstock started the New Jazz label in 1949 in New York City. The Prestige label was started shortly afterwards. Originaly the labels were located at 446 West 50th Street, in 1950 the company was moved to 782 Eighth Avenue. Prestige made a couple more moves in New York City but by 1958 it was located at its more familiar address of 203 South Washington Avenue in Bergenfield, New Jersey. Prestige recorded jazz, folk and rhythm and blues. The New Jazz label issued jazz and was used for a few 10 inch album releases in 1954 and then again for as series of 12 inch albums starting in 1958 and continuing until 1964. The artists on New Jazz were interchangeable with those on the Prestige label and after 1964 the New Jazz label name was dropped. Early on, Weinstock used various New York City recording studios including Nola and Beltone, but he soon started using the Rudy van Gelder studio in Hackensack New Jersey almost exclusively. Rudy van Gelder moved his studio to Englewood Cliffs New Jersey in 1959, which was close to the Prestige office in Bergenfield. Producers for the label, in addition to Weinstock, were Chris Albertson, Ozzie Cadena, Esmond Edwards, Ira Gitler, Cal Lampley Bob Porter and Don Schlitten. Rudy van Gelder engineered most of the Prestige recordings of the 1950’s and 60’s. The line-up of jazz artists on Prestige was impressive, including Gene Ammons, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Booker Ervin, Art Farmer, Red Garland, Wardell Gray, Richard “Groove” Holmes, Milt Jackson and the Modern Jazz Quartet, “Brother” Jack McDuff, Jackie McLean, Thelonious Monk, Don Patterson, Sonny Rollins, Shirley Scott, Sonny Stitt and Mal Waldron.

We are in the midst of a worldwide pandemic, COVID-19. We have no way of knowing how long it will last or the lasting health and economic impacts it will have on our world. What we do know is that our lives will be forever changed by this crisis, hopefully, eventually, for the better. The Destination Missoula 2020-21 Marketing Plan was written when we were only aware of COVID-19 as a disease that was taking its toll halfway around the world. We did not know, at that time, that we too would be embroiled in the same crisis only a few short months later. Since we do not have the ability to predict the future, Destination Missoula has chosen to leave our Marketing Plan and budgets as originally written. We will be using it as an aspirational plan and target of where we will eventually bounce back to. That being said, our Board of Directors has in place an internal plan for constant evaluation of our Marketing Plan and budgets, working on a cash basis, to ensure that our expenditures do not exceed the income actually coming into the organization.

  • Sonny Red Oral History 2020
    BLUESVILLE: THE JOURNEY OF SONNY RED Anders Svanoe INTRODUCTION The first time I heard Sonny Red on record, I wondered, “Who is this guy?” Luckily for me, I had stumbled on Curtis Fuller's New Trombone, which started the nine-year (and still counting) love affair with Sonny Red (a.k.a. Sylvester Kyner). That particular record really caught my attention, since I had never heard that much trombone and alto saxophone pairing on the front line. But there was something almost suspicious in how these two masterful musicians blended and embellished every note together as if they were one. It seemed they knew each other well. Almost too well. Red's organic sound on the alto saxophone was a perfect match for Curtis Fuller. I couldn't explain why I liked it so much, other than to say it was captivating, heartfelt and real. Imperfectly perfect, if you can say that. In the following weeks I looked for additional record dates that featured Sonny, but found very few sessions available on CD. Not even Out Of the Blue, perhaps Red's finest effort, was available in the U.S. Now Sonny's albums are finally resurfacing on CD, and are beginning to attract positive attention. When these albums first came out in the late 1950s and early 1960s, they were sadly overlooked. This was a common problem for bebop alto players recording in the 1950s: there were just too many other great alto players recording a similar type of music, and Red's style somehow got lost in the mix.
