Cannonball Adderley Quintet
7th Newport Jazz Festival
De Doelen, Rotterdam (The Netherlands)
October 27-28, 1972 *sort of" *RESEED*
This one was seeded here before. For the reseed, I made some track length editing and added some more info about titles and track lengths. Some brief broadcast announcements have been omitted. The sound characteristics were unaltered.
According to some Dutch newspaper info (which was also used to add the exact date and location of the concert, which wasn't supplied in the previous upload) and reviews,, the Festival was a "gigantic artistic failure" [De Tijd, 30 October 1972]. Only the sparse contributions of Cat Anderson and some of the efforts by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet got some approval.
In another newspaper [De Tijd, 20 October 1972], I found a picture with Julian and Nat Adderley from the concert, which I've added as well.

Please note: I don't have any of the concerts listed above, other than that of the Cannonball Adderley Quintet.
I do recall that at least the concert of "The Giants of Jazz" was posted here some time ago.
According to the newspapers mentioned above, the whole festival was extensively covered for television broadcast.
A video of "Straight, No Chaser" can be found on Youtube:

where it is incorrectly dated as coming from 1974.
Since the broadcast station logo in the upper left corner is "NPS" and in the upper right corner "Nederland 3", it has to be from a recent re-broadcast of an item, first aired August 2, 1974 (!) as part of a compilation from the 1972 Newport Jazz Festival in the program Jazzorama by AVRO Television, which also included excerpts from the other artists listed above.
