Charlie Haden on Black Saint - Soul Note


Please note these reissues from the (not so distant) jazz history:
"The Complete Remastered Recordings on Black Saint & Soul Note".
So far I have heard The Charlie Haden box (thanks to the Bergen music library!), with:
Don Cherry, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Ed Blackwell: "Old and New Dreams" (1976).
Don Cherry, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Ed Blackwell: "A tribute to Blackwell" (1990).
Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, Geri Allen: "Etudes" (1988).
Charlie Haden, Chet Baker, Enrico Pieranunzi, Billy Higgins: "Silence" (1989).
Charlie Haden, Billy Higgins, Enrico Peranunzi: "First Song" (1990).

What a box of great music! I might prefer the "Old and New Dreams" band, with the Ornette Coleman sidemen Haden, Blackwell, Cherry an Redman (and love their two albums on ECM too!),but I was quite happy to hear the beautiful "Silence" with Chet Baker. That one was new to me.
