king ubu Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 Have finally ordered that one from the recent sale (with the Hamp, Bird and the new Tolliver Select!) - looking forward a lot. Sneeked that one in before the devaluation of the Swiss zlotty then ! Maybe some of us can now go skiing next year.. Yeah well... there's plenty of stuff that cost twice as much here as in other european countries BEFORE the € and the US$ went down the drain... and now some supermarkets are giving such generous currency-related discounts as 7% I'm not afraid about sound of the Turrentine - never had any real complaints about sound of a Mosaic, remember I'm not equipped with the finest of ears...

colinmce Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 Disk 2. Maybe my favorite Mosaic set, period. It was a revelation to me. Quote

You won't have any problems with the sound of the Turrentine - it is fine ! Quote
king ubu Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 Got it today (thanks a lot, jazzkrow - got here amazingly fast!) and am into LP2 now - beautiful! Quote
golfcrazy1984 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Disk 3. This is one of the Selects I'm waiting for Mosaic to get back in print . Seems like it will be very enjoyable, swingin' music, played by true greats. How's the sound quality? Quote
alankin Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Argo, Emarcy and Verve Small Group Buddy Rich Sessions - disc 2 Quote
gmonahan Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Ellington Brunswick Big Band set, disc 11. It's been a great ride listening to these! gregmo Quote

An easier swinging set of music you will not find. Just absolutely blissful stuff. Quote

Clunky Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 (edited) An easier swinging set of music you will not find. Just absolutely blissful stuff. Colin is right. I play this set quite a bit, it still sits on the shelf near the HiFi, a rare honour accorded to among others Beatles mono, Thomas Chapin -Alive, Bob Dylan Mono box and handful of single CDs I can't put away.

golfcrazy1984 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Thanks for the feedback everybody!!! I should've ordered this years ago, but it'll be back in stock soon, and will order then!!! Although it makes no sense to order just one Select....I might get the Chu set too since I don't have it and it looks great. I'm listening to the Count Basie Roulette Studio recordings...it's wonderful and inspiring music. Such a band! Specifically the Kansas City Suite now. Quote
golfcrazy1984 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 After work listen to the Lunceford set. Disk 2 is swingin' away in only the style Lunceford could. Quote
B. Goren. Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 Disk 2. I just noticed that in some of the sessions, Horace Tapscott plays the trombone. Quote
colinmce Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 Disk 2. I just noticed that in some of the sessions, Horace Tapscott plays the trombone. He can also be heard to this effect on Lou Blackburn - The Complete Imperial Sessions from the BN Connoisseur series. Quote

B. Goren. Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 Disk 3. This set is highly recommended. Beautifully orchestrated music. Quote
