		Although Dolphy was featured on only two of the five tracks original released from the Vanguard (a matter of some controversy at the time), he is prominently heard on 17 of the 22 tracks recorded over the four nights (11/4 was a Saturday and was probably skipped as not a good night to record).

		Roney solosbeautifully on every track; his tone is dark and expressive in the lower register, and resonant on high notes.

	Carnegie vibe for Village Vanguard - Newsday.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Village Vanguard is a 71- year-old subterranean Greenwich Village nightspot that has come to be regarded as jazz's "holy dive." There are many reasons to love the club and its grumpy-but-lovable owner Lorraine Gordon, and both were deservedly honored Monday night with an all-star JVC Jazz Festival tribute at Carnegie Hall.
		Monday's concert was more the former than the latter - though it was unfortunate that the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, as solid a pillar of the city's artistic life as the club that's nurtured it for 40-plus years, was forced to make a perfunctory end to its closing set to make the 11 p.m.
		The latter's name came up again during the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra's climactic set, when they were joined by saxophonist and orchestra alum Joe Lovano for one of the band's typically adventurous and rousing arrangements.

		Optimum listening is at the seat next to the drums, or by founder Max Gordon's old favorite spot under the "new man/new woman" mural.
		The sound is so exquisite that more than 100 live recordings now bear the moniker "Live at the Village Vanguard." Views are great, unless you sit where a pillar may block the bassist.

	Billboard.com - Discography (more) - Geri Allen With Charlie Haden & Paul Motian - Live at the Village Vanguard
		What a shame this trio didn't keep working together longer -- the finely honed veteran rhythm section of Charlie Haden and Paul Motian was a match made in heaven for Geri Allen, the most stylistically versatile and creative pianist of her generation.
		But praise the music gods they managed to record as much as they did, even though Live at the Village Vanguard may not be the best starting point to sample the interaction of this creatively balanced trio.
		Live at the Village Vanguard is a good CD musically, but there's not much jump-up factor here -- it's moody and very bluesy in feeling if not actual form, almost like chamber jazz at times.

		An institution in the city's Greenwich Village neighborhood that's been a venue for nearly every jazz great of the past seven decades, the Vanguard remains a strong draw today.
		She was also ahead of the curve in more recent years, banning smoking inside the Vanguard before the city nixed it everywhere.

	Bill Evans :Sunday at the Village Vanguard
		The Bill Evans trio had been playing together for nearly two years by the time these dates at the Village Vanguard were recorded, but the group was underrecorded because Evans, ever the perfectionist, was reluctant to commit "final" performances of these compositions to vinyl.
		Evans believed that the trio should be a meeting of equals, with the bass and drums taking on a more active role than the timekeeping to which they were usually relegated.
		This concept is heard very clearly on Sunday at the Village Vanguard--LaFaro plays around the chords and is able to compliment Evans' piano stylings while Motian is able to provide much more coloration than the usual drumwork.

		The Vanguard, in contrast, is an agreeably fan-shaped room, and although all the banquette seats face the middle of the room, and not the stage, the end result, when everybody's seated, is that of an irregular auditorium.

		The original approved takes were initially released on two LPs, Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby.
		In their pristine original orders, those were fine listening experiences; as currently configured on CDs, they have alternate takes of the same pieces ordered consecutively; with just one such situation at the end of the final set, this new set now provides more enjoyable listening.

		Unlike the knotty difficulties in trying to untie the various knots in the "Classic Quartet" box of Impulse recordings, the Vanguard sessions represent something else in the canon of John Coltrane's work.
		In 1961, Coltrane was still experimenting with his quartet format and trying to work in the proper coloration of voicings needed to give his music the proper force and expression he pictured it to have.
		Originally, the Vanguard performances were released on four different albums: "Impressions" (two of the four tracks it featured), "Live at the Village Vanguard", "The Other Village Vanguard Tapes", "Trane's Modes", and "From the Original Master Tapes".

		That same expression is worn by the patrons thanks to the world-famous acoustics of this wedge-shaped room.
		Opened in a former Greenwich Village speakeasy in 1935, this small club had a tradition of showcasing bohemian outpourings—from Lenny Bruce’s earliest rants to Harry Belafonte’s navel-baring dance—before it switched to strictly jazz in 1957.
		Since then, the Vanguard has become a mecca for all things swinging.
