mikeweil Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 ....  I'm not through the whole box yet - I like the stuff with piano very much, the two guitars album much less. I'll see how the rest is. Funds are very low this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Yep, the 'Catch Me' material is a real highlight of that set. Available at Jazz Messengers still, I think, should it disappear from the Mosaic site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the booklet with this one - with the excellent introductory essay on Teddy Reig. What a mark that guy made on the world of music !  Too bad there weren't any Savoy session photos but I guess Mr Lubinsky didn't believe in all that..

Music on both will be great and I have loads of it on 2LP sets and a few CDs and even a very few original Savoy 78s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) I've been listening to both sets and so far, the view is positive. Don't have other CD sources to compare with but the sound is pretty clear, considering this is 70 year old music (gasp) and it is great to have it all compiled in archival sets. I think they did a pretty good job ! (stands back awaiting flame-out response..). The music, of course, on both sets - is historic.

sidewinder Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Just run a comparison between LP 1 track 2 'Blow Mr Dexter' from the Arista 2LP set and the same track on the Moaic set. There's no question that the sound of Dexter comes across in the Mosaic as more in focus and with a 'bigger' sound. Noticed though that there was what sounded to be a very short duration drop off on the Mosaic just before the piano solo - tape deterioration perhaps? All in all though I prefer the sound of the Mosaic, although the Lps are no slouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
