Where to begin...
I suppose if one can avoid the NEED to have (selected) Mosaics, one should. For the rest of us...

Sugar Chile! (Robinson). I was so awed with this musical talent, I picked up the Classics CD.
I'm joking on the 'talent' part, but I did pick up the Classics. (Classics? This is Classic?)
-
Over the course of three purchases, I managed to assemble a complete Gerald Wilson. And within a weeks' time, I saw, but failed to buy a complete Andrew Hill; lesson learned.

Just perused the list of 'benefactors' over at All About Jazz. And there they were: Organissimo. I know the boards aren't rivals, but it is nice to see support for the music, across the divides.
-
I was present for several portions of these recordings (based on ticket stubs and best-recollections - I was a Keystone regular back then). Someday, I'll probably pick up this set, perhaps if/when there's another Mosaic sale/promo. I recall liking the band at the time, and I've continued to enjoy Cables in other settings (e.g., Art Pepper). Yet, somehow, I managed to 'pass' on the earlier issue.

Ohhellyeah!
Money a-comin' my way. Okay, it's US$47. But that'll get me...uhm...a bus pass? A Senior bus pass?

Wardell Gray cut a few of these sides (with Little Willie Littlefield, Ivory Joe Hunter and I forget who-all else.) Frankly, they're disappointing - as much as I love WG. And not surprisingly. Wardell's tone and approach were just too light for this setting.
Love those old Saxophonograph LPs. Wish I had one with me. And a turntable. and a phono preamp.
Red Prysock, Griff, Cleanhead (alto), Big Jay, Jug, Gator, T, Arnett, Harold Vick...even Sonny Stitt. And who was the cat who cut a couple of albums for Blue Note? (Drawing a blank. )

Only one beer I drink: my own. (Been brewing since 1978.)

Not certain yet, but you can be sure I'll be Keepin' it greazy!!!

Jazz: Wardell Gray "Way Out Wardell" on Crown Records
Un-Jazz: Led Zeppelin "Presence"
Tip of the hat to Aebersold All Bird and Miles Davis...

Truly one of my favorite players.
And one of my favorite people.
A beautiful cat all around.
Someday, I'll tell the story of Moody's birthday, oh so many years ago. I still laugh. I still cry. But the bottom line on it was, Moody's one h*ll of a guy.

I travel quite a bit - 115 countries or so in the past dozen years. I always try to learn ten 'key' words or phrases from each language I encounter. I can only echo the sentiments of others: Finnish is among the toughest. Heck, even Russian - with the Cyrillic alphabet - is a relative cinch.

11 members reading this thread. Interesting that this should attract such a crowd.

Princeton, NJ. Check it out.
Seriously, don't know what your criteria are, but Princeton is okay: location, local attitude, etc.

Where to listen/eat/amuse one's self/shop. I'll be there for about a month (late-April - mid-May). Haven't been in a few years.
-
I bought it used a couple years ago...an ok recording my nothing special!
Agreed. My decision to place this in Artists rather than Recommendations was deliberate.
-
Oh yes, any thoughts on this recording, Mr. Gould? (I'm not sure we've 'met', but yours is a familiar name. Three Sounds/Gene Harris, is it? Or have I confused you with...??? So much for the memory.)
-
You've got a good memory to specifically not include me in your question!
.....uhm, forgot what I was going to say.
-
Anyone besides Dan Gould have this recording? I bought it mainly as a curiousity. Recorded late in the career of each featured performer in a relatively informal setting (clearly, the audio engineer was not RVG), it's a pretty loose set. And, just when I think something's going to suffer a total breakdown or the proceedings are going to lapse into the entirely banal, one of the performers plays something that seems to bring things back together.
By no means a great recording, but it did meet my objective: it's a curiousity.

I'm presently on the (in)continent of Florida.

Not exactly an answer to your question, but Jazz Record Center in NYC has heaps of these and, one would assume, a good source.
Japanese versions of US Jazz CDs at Tower Mtn View
in Miscellaneous Music
Posted
Tower in Mountain View, CA has a hundred or more Japanese CDs of Blue Note, Savoy, Verve and other on the shelves below the used Jazz CD racks. $7 - $12. I picked up Newk at the VV (double) for $14.99. Left the rest for y'all.
