Archaeology is the study of the ancient and recent human past through material remains. The same might be said of distant and recent jazz recordings that have been discovered. Sometimes jazz archeologists find these rarities in the archives of defunct record labels, or buried unmarked at the vast Library of Congress. Several were in the hands of amateurs who recorded performances long feared to be lost forever.In this hour, you'll hear historic treasures of music and jazz history. John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk at Carnegie Hall in 1957. Bill Evans' long lost recording in the Black Forest with Jack DeJohnette and Eddie Gomez. Joao Gilberto and Stan Getz at San Francisco's Keystone Korner in 1976. Wes Montgomery in Indianapolis in 1957, when he was still a local musician. Paul Desmond recording with the guitarist Ed Bickert in Toronto in 1975.
