Jazz Masterpieces Volume Two

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

I have managed to (with my burgeoning knowledge of jazz music) identify where *most* of these tracks originated from and have put in the necessary edits to merge them together with their originals.

The following tracks I am having difficulty with:
Track 4 "My Funny Valentine" by Wynton Marsalis doesn't seem to match up to anything, and is likely an edit of some kind. The only matches via fingerprint that have been found are to more cheap/budget Jazz compilations. It is however a live performance, much like the other tracks on this compilation.
Track 7 "Take Five" by Dave Brubeck seemingly matches up in duration to the Carnegie Hall performance but when listened to back-to-back sound very different.
Track 9 "Apple Core" by Gerry Mulligan, I can't find anything useful with this one either - but have found its appearance on a good selection of other "budget" compilations.
Tracks 11+12 need me to review as they've currently got two fingerprints assigned.

Due to the relative "cheapness" of Pulse releases, there aren't any useful bits of infomation in the booklet to help identify these recordings, however it does state that all recordings are produced by RTV Communications Group.
