This is the first of three recordings made at the fourth Juan-les-Pins Festival. The rhythm
section, after playing together for only two months, is amazingly fluid and cohesive,
and Davis' playing is very spirited on all three of the Antibes recordings.
The performance master for this session in the RTF/INA archives is on 1/2" Kodak tape
(item #LVAAA00345). The first reel contains André Francis' introduction and "So What"; the next
reel contains "Stella by Starlight," "Seven Steps to Heaven," and "Walkin'"; the third contains "My
Funny Valentine," "Joshua" (sometimes listed as "Jazz Shower"), "The Theme," and concludes
with Francis' closing announcement from the stage. Apparently "All Blues" was removed from the first reel
when the tune was used in an installment of Jazz sur Scène originally broadcast
on May 29, 1966 (item #101D00088A/B), which also includes three tunes from the
Paris Jazz Festival on October 1, 1964.
I am grateful to Robert Elliott for supplying me with the recordings from the ORTF archives.
