paul secor Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Received the Hodges yesterday afternoon. Listened to part of disc one, & from that it sounds like I'm going to be very happy with the music I don't already have. Quote

six string Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I just finished listening to the first disc of the Don Pullen Mosaic Select. I had never heard any of his music afaik, but a friend of mine that I really respect highly recomended him, so I bought it today. Very exciting music to say the lease. More to come after I get better acquainted with it. Quote
WarpedOrb Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) Of all my Mosaics I seem to go to the J.J. Johnson one the most; Elvin Jones second. My new, and newly OOP, Hodges is quite good but offers no surprises. The Lang/Venuti set is not so good and I'm selling that one for beer money. Edited March 7, 2008 by DemonDuckOfDoom Quote
Tom 1960 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Listening to the April 5 and August 14, 1958 sessions of Johnny Hodges Mosaic, disc 2. Great music. Quote

papsrus Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Disc 2 of the Complete H.R.S. Sessions, which just arrived here a few days ago. So impressed with this one. Rex Stewart's "Cherry" (1940) is knocks-the-socks-off great -- slightly sad, slightly happy, easy swingin' ... beautiful. Quote
sidewinder Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Solid State LP set, LPs 1 and 2 Not only great music but one of my fave Mosaic booklets. Edited March 16, 2008 by sidewinder Quote

six string Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 Last night and this morning I listened to disc 4 and 5 of the Stanley Turrentine box. I love his arrangement of Randy Weston's In Memory Of on disc four. Quote
