Note: When Don Cherry started recording he was playing a pocket-cornet (which he named a pocket-trumpet) but later he changed (at least for some years) to a full-sized cornet. On most recordings his instrument is listed as pocket-trumpet; this discography lists the instrument as cornet (cnt).

Note: The above titles are generally listed as recorded at the same session as the ”Rufus” LP (Fontana(Eu)681.014ZL) – i.e. August 23, 1963. According to Tchicai Don Cherry was late for the session – therefore the five titles on the ”Rufus” LP were recorded with- out Cherry; when Cherry arrived the above titles (for the ”Consequences” LP) were recorded. The two records however have dif- ferent sound characteristics – suggesting different sessions.

Impulse(J)MVCI23016 (CD): ”Complete Ascension”. Impulse(J)Y136: ”Impulse Jazz Special Digest”.

Note: Each take was recorded as one continuous piece. Two takes were recorded. According to ”The John Coltrane Reference” (Vito, Fujioka, Schmaler, Wild and Porter – 2007) ” Col- trane chose take 1 (40:31) for release, but take 2 (38:37) was mistakenly released first; take 1 was then issued within a few month in identical packaging (and thus wrong timings on the jacket and labels), the only difference being the identifier ”EDITION II” scratched into the wax of the LP itself.”. Some of the CD issues include both takes and Impulse 543.413-2 (CD) (”Ascension”) even incl. a short announcement at the start of take 2 (which definitively establishes that this take was used for Edition I).

Note: The Storyville session file lists that the above session was recorded – and mixed – November 10-14, 1987. It has however been verified, that Tchicai recorded November 14, 1987 in Zürich and that Danstrup was playing in Jutland with Jan Kaspersen’s group November 10-13, 1987. Danstrup did play with Tchicai’s group November 25-29, 1987 (November 27-29, 1987 in The Netherlands). Therefore it seems unlikely that the above titles were recorded November 10-14, 1987.
