king ubu Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 YOWZAH! enjoying looking at the Hall/Johnson/De Paris/Dickenson Mosaic (CD-version) that just arrived! know much of the music already, but this does look nice, very nice! the page with the cd-tracklists is a loose sheet, slightly smaller, put inside the booklet - was that how they presented their early CD-versions, with the booklet being just for the LP-version and thus they had to add an additional page?

That's exactly right about the slip-in page with the CD info; I have several of the early Mosaic CD editions. You already know that there's some fabulous music on that set.

Yes, that's why I spent some $$ to get it (135$ to be exact... and it slipped through customs without trouble, luckily). I've got two early vinyls (Tina Brooks and Art Pepper), but then there's quite a gap... I think the next ones I have are in the 130s. From about the 150s/160s on I have most of what I wanted. But it's always a thrill when I get a chnce to grab another earlier one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfcrazy1984 Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Listening to the newly acquired Mobley set, it sounds wonderful!!!

Dharmafor1 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Chico Hamilton , starting with Satin Doll. Been listening to a lot of West Coast and it led me back to both Shelly and Chico. since I often put the Shelly Blackhawk sides on , I figured I'd zag this time instead of zigging, and I always forget how his chamber approach is such a nice departure from other dates of that time.

golfcrazy1984 Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 The Classic Artie Shaw Bluebird and Victor Sessions. ALL DAY. I've neglected it in favor of the Benny Goodman set for too long. Great set, and the sound is fine, but not like the Malcolm Addey remastered Benny Goodman set.

golfcrazy1984 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Classic Columbia and Okeh Benny Goodman Orchestra Sessions Disks 5-7 today. Being a lifelong Ellington and Basie fanatic, I am shocked how much I LOVE this whole box set. Benny is amazing and every incarnation of his band is TIGHT and SWINGIN'. I listen to this set often.

golfcrazy1984 Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 I listened to a little Lionel Hampton (Hodges, and Benny Carter), Count Basie Roulette Studio Recordings (gotta love that SAXOPHONE section!) and a little Benny Goodman Sessions (Clarinade in particular). I am really looking forward to splurging on a new Mosaic set soon and have my eyes on a few that I missed out on as they went out of print.

golfcrazy1984 Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 While doing some editing work on a book before a New Years gig I am listening to Dizzy Gillespie disk #2. St. Louis blues! They are cookin'! I will be spending some time listening to the new Ellington big set tomorrow, as I haven't been enjoying it as much as I thought. Am I being to nearsighted listening to Mosaic records exclusively? I really haven't listened to much else recently... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfcrazy1984 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 The Complete Lionel Hampton Victor Sessions (1937-1941). Disk 1 (probably all disks today). This was the first set that I got after a Mosaic hiatus of a few years. Now I'm back to large orders, maybe I should ship them to the office....

golfcrazy1984 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Duke Ellington Small Groups Disk 6. I return to this set often. This music is straight from the heart. Looking forward to spending more time with the Ellington big band set this week I broke down and ordered several OOP Mosaics from Amazon sellers that I missed out on back in the day. Buck Clayton CBS Jam Sessions, HRS Sessions and The Classic Capitol Sessions (not sure why I didn't get them originally) I paid $75 for the Buck Clayton, $179 for the Capitol and $150 for the HRS... I know it's a chunk of change but this music's gonna be GREAT and I will be in Mosaic heaven for the next few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
