Indeed very ineresting!

Any comments on this release: It caught my attention at the time it was issued, but I never got around to listen to or buy it.

I have these three Spotllte LPs, the music is very good and these albums did an excellent job at keeping Al Haig in the minds of jazz lovers. Lots of rare stuff. Many Spotlite LPs were released as CDs, no idea if these were among them.

In memory of Russell Malone

Listening to a lot of Janitsch this morning to identify his compositions in the new published works catalogue:

What a beautiful photograph!

Oh my ..... much too young. Excellent guitarist.

Hmm .... maybe there is a remark i the brochure. They sit on a shelf in the basement but not easy to access right now. I will take a look.

No idea, I don't have that set. Maybe someone who has it can take a look into the booklet. Cuscuna used to say such things in his producer's notes on tha last page. I just thought it confirms to his general production citeria.

.... my edition is the original German CD which I cannot find on discogs.

My guess would be Mosaic wanted to feature the Getz-Raney unit as a working group. The sessions before 1951 would not match that. There was more recorded at that 1948 session for Sittin' In With: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stan Getz Quintet : Stan Getz (ts) Al Haig (p) Jimmy Raney (g) Clyde Lombardi (b) Charlie Perry (d) New York, October 25-26, 1948 C121-1 Pardon my bop (*) Dale LP21, EP201, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Mainstream MDCD722 [CD] C121-2 Pardon my bop (*) Dale LP21, EP201, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Mainstream MDCD722 [CD] C121-3 Pardon my bop SIW 532, Jade 702, Vogue (E)V2030, EPV1016, Jazz Sel (F)630, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Definitive (And)DRCD11257 [CD] C122 As I live and I bop [Bopcycle]SIW 505, Mainstream M56025, Jax 5002, Dale LP21, Mainstream MRL364, MSTD101, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Mainstream MDCD722 [CD], Definitive DRCD11257 [CD] As I live and I bop (alt,*) Mainstream MDCD722 [CD] C123 Interlude in Bebop [Bopelbath] (*) SIW 549, Dale LP21, EP201, Jade 702, Vog (E)V2031 Spotlite (E)SPJ140 C123 Interlude in Bebop SIW 505, Dale LP21, EP200, Vog (E)V2033, EPV1016, (Dan)JS673, Jazz Sel (F)673, Mainsteam M56025, S6025, MSTD101, MRL364, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Dejavu (It)DVRECD17 [CD], Mainstream MDCD722 [CD] C124 Diaper pin [Pinhead] (jr out) SIW 532, Dale EP200, LP21, Vog (E)V2031, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Mainstream MRL5007, MDCD722 [CD] C124 Diaper pin (jr out) SIW 549, Dale LP21, EP201, Vog (E)V3031, EPV1016, JS630, Mainstream MRL5007, MRL364, Spotlite (E)SPJ140, Dejavu (It)DVRECD17 [CD], Mainstream MDCD722 [CD] Note: Mainstream MRL364 titled "Yesterday"; rest of this LP by Wardell Gray, Al Haig and others.

If I read these data correctly, no reissue ever included all takes. There were sessions in 1949 with Getz and Raney for Savoy, Seeco, and Harry Lim, too. Kind of a pool of musicians.

That's more information than one would expect. Much thanks! The Tom Lord Disco misspells his first name Hindai, btw, probably a typo in the database.

Sorry to say this, but I kind of lost the taste for these. It goes into the sales box, like the one I listened to next:

Beautiful music!

Next, the only way for me to listen to Wagner operas.
