bluesoul Posted May 3, 2015 Report Posted May 3, 2015 Just got this one last week (along with the Carter/Bradford select). Still working my way through it, almost all of the material is new to me. I'm loving it, just tremendous music. Quote

sidewinder Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Thad & Mel CD5. Still one of my favourite Mosaics.. Quote
Clunky Posted May 10, 2015 Report Posted May 10, 2015 Monk-------- At the It Club----- ( LP4 Mosaic ) Gallop's Gallop just finished playing. A bit of a mess but it has that edge as a result. I had the French 2CD set which mirrored the original release. I miss it's editing but not it's sound, which was muddy. This Mosaic set really has as much of Monk's quartet as you might need. Great tunes, well recorded. Quote
B. Goren. Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 CDs 2 & 3. Les McCann sounds great!!!! Quote

This Mosaic set really has as much of Monk's quartet as you might need. Great tunes, well recorded. I'll be giving that one another spin today, along with the RRK and Sun Ship. Now spinning Wynton Kelly/Paul Chambers Vee Jay CD1. The Paul Chambers 'Go' session. Edited May 16, 2015 by sidewinder Quote
Clunky Posted May 17, 2015 Report Posted May 17, 2015 Chu Berry set --------discs 3 and 4 Unfailing good set. I'd have like a little more surface noise to give some added crispness to the high end. Don't get me wrong , it sounds fine but having heard 78s of some of this material there is more life to be heard if you're prepared to hear some surface noise. None the less high enjoyable set. Quote
