The page has moved - and is now dedicated to both labels, Allgero and Cawthron.

Thank you for filling me in and listing the personnel.

They have the same speed, but really different themes.<BR/><BR/>Propable personnel on the Cawthron:<BR/><BR/>Lazar (org), Grant Green (eg, he's identifiable), Chauncey Williams (dr), recorded St. Louis, 1959<BR/><BR/>Now for the Argo: Here the "Space Flight" is a rerecording of "Space Flight Part 1 from the Cawthron 45.<BR/><BR/>The Argo also contains a new recording of "Space Flight Part 2", although under a new title, "Big Willie", in honor of Chess/Argo Blues session bassist Willie Dixon, who was added to the personnel from the Cawthron session.<BR/><BR/>The Argo LP was released in 1960.<BR/><BR/>Armincrownpropellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415100846056046590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11910289.post-73079947219459680082009-02-01T09:44:00.000-06:002009-02-01T09:44:00.000-06:00abuettner, Fell free to use the picture of the Sam...abuettner, <BR/><BR/>Fell free to use the picture of the Sam Lazar label. <BR/><BR/>ToddTodd Lucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121569810897361036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11910289.post-47425620700788947992009-01-30T12:31:00.000-06:002009-01-30T12:31:00.000-06:00Hi, ToddI have a webpage on the Allegro label whic...Hi, Todd<BR/><BR/>I have a webpage on the Allegro label which as i just found out was owned by the same man as the Cawthron label that your Sam Lazar 45rpm was on. I managed to get the Lazar 45 on Cawthron, though my copy has a St. Louis adress on it. <BR/><BR/>I have not yet added the info about the Cawthron label on my Allegro page but will soon do so. If i do, could i use your picture of the Lazar 45 with the L.A. adress label?<BR/><BR/>Please let me know<BR/><BR/><BR/>See: /www.jazzdocumentation.ch/allegro/allegro.htmlcrownpropellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415100846056046590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11910289.post-1131902597052009262005-11-13T11:23:00.000-06:002005-11-13T11:23:00.000-06:00Allan, thanks for taking the time to comment.

Given the length of the album cut, I'd guess you're right about Part 2 being an alternate take.Todd Lucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121569810897361036noreply@blogger.com
