MG I've got the Gerald Wilson tracks 1-80ish on alphabetical order play in the car at the moment and have been enjoying every bit of it. Some of the transitions at the end of the live tracks sound a bit bizarre though in this play-order.. Edited September 20, 2013 by sidewinder Quote

jeffcrom Posted September 30, 2013 Report Posted September 30, 2013 Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions, disc 6 - inspired by rgodridge's playing of some of the Capitol Jazzmen sides on 78. Quote
David Ayers Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 J.J Johnson #1-3 Gentle music in old-style soft-grained remastering. Just the job. Quote
David Ayers Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 JJ#4 There was a backlash against this set, IIRC, after it went OOP. Folks found it a bit placid maybe? Not sure. I think it's one of those Mosaic minor classics. Quote
David Ayers Posted October 6, 2013 Report Posted October 6, 2013 No takers for JJ? Pushing on with #5 between bouts of work... Quote
sidewinder Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 No takers for JJ? Pushing on with #5 between bouts of work... It gets lots of from me. Have the vinyl version and must dig it out again. Quote
king ubu Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 guess I'll just play it all through ... been way too long! @David: love the J.J. box, wouldn't want to miss it! Quote
David Ayers Posted October 8, 2013 Report Posted October 8, 2013 I. Would. Not. Be. Without. This. Set. Quote

Justin V Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) The Complete Verve Stuff Smith Sessions, Disc 2. I stumbled upon a copy of this last month for $45.99 after shipping. Yes, only $45.99. The only thing wrong with it is that the box is a bit messed up (most of the lettering on the spine is ripped off and the bottom of the box is damaged). The discs, ranging from acceptable to mint, play perfectly and the booklet was included. Having only Cat on a Hot Fiddle, I jumped at the opportunity to get otherwise-unavailable music and the sessions with Dizzy Gillespie and Oscar Peterson. I can't say enough about the previously unreleased Cat on a Hot Fiddle tracks; Shirley Horn is absolutely spellbinding. Given the quality of the music (I now know that I can easily take Stuff Smith in large doses), it's worth the $125 people are asking for on Amazon. Edited October 9, 2013 by Justin V Quote
sidewinder Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 Yeah, the Stuff Smith is a great set. I never tire of that one. Nice find ! Quote
John Tapscott Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 And finally on to JJ #7. Some good stuff. I think that's the best CD of the whole set; at least it's my favorite. Quote
king ubu Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 The album with Victor Feldman? I always found that a bit on the weak side, after all the fine groups before (Jaspar, Little ... then Flaganan Chambers Roach, the the two-brass band with Nat, the band with Clifford Jordan, Arthur Harper etc).
