HolyStitt Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 The Columbia/OKeh Joe Venuti & Eddie Lang Sessions Disc two and three. Just finished the second disc and now starting the third. I was on the fence with this set for a long time but now that I am actually hearing the music I am glad I made the purchase. Quote

HolyStitt Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Woody Herman Philips Recordings (Mosaic, MS-031) I just finished disc one and now I am going to listen to the rest of this set! I had not heard any of this music but the reactions from board members and the endorsement from Scott from Mosaic (while ordering my Venuti/Lang & Chu Berry sets) was enough for me to take a chance. So far I am very glad I did! Quote
montg Posted February 9, 2008 Report Posted February 9, 2008 Just opened up Disc 4 of the Buddy DeFranco box. I've had this set since 1990. Opened up Discs 2 and 3 in '92 and '02. I was talking with sjarrel about it the other day, and our conversation reminded me I still had one to go, so today is the day I checked it out and finished the box. Years ago Cuscuna said in one of his catalogues that the DeFranco and the Shorty Rogers were his two worst-selling boxes. I bought both and enjoy them both. Maybe it's time to check out the next Rogers I haven't heard yet too! I once e-mailed MC about a possible DeFranco Verve set. I didn't realize the earlier DeFranco set had been such a poor seller, makes my request seem kind of stupid in hindsight Needless to say, the response was polite but less than enthusiastic. Quote
