LPs 1, 2, 3. Was the cover image supposed to be off-center like that, or is that just a case of 'stuff happens'? Kind of like the Eldridge box. :huh:

Er... What's wrong with the Eldridge box? Don't tell me it's Red Nichols on the cover :D

That is the way the original photo was cropped and the off center placement seems ok to me. The Eldridge cover shot was reversed if I remember correctly.

Oh shit, yes - and I never noticed :blush:

Sorry, hadn't been keeping an eye on the thread but Chuck covered it for me. The Eldridge had a reverse image. I guess that production must have been too far along to correct it. The off-center placement here -well, there are worse things for sure but it still looks odd to me. D/K if any other Mosaics have that problem.

The Mulligan/Baker is the only one that looks that way, on all copies. Never understood why, but it was in the very first release batch with the Monk & Ammons/Lewis in 1983 so maybe they hadn't yet finalized the look, as it were.

Finally got started with this one last night ... wasn't even aware yet Kenny Washington was involved - love his liner notes and insights! Played discs one and two last night, disc two in all its glory again today.

Now on to this:

Terrific!

Just starting on this myself. Agreed............TERRIFIC!

I would go so far as to say "indispensable," too, considering that when this goes OOP it will become increasingly difficult to acquire the music.
