Jim Duckworth Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 I listened to discs six and seven-with Roy Eldridge, Dodo Marmarosa, and Barney Kessell. I must confess, however, that I've been listening to alot of Woody Herman the last few weeks, and I found myself missing some of the entertainment I find in the music of the Herds, As Uncle Dave Macon said about Earl Scruggs, "He ain't a bit funny."  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always a lot to chew on in this one: It wasn't my first, but it was an early one. Interesting that there seems to be a resurgence of interest in Andrew lately. Especially regarding all the new vinyl BN reissues. I never got that Braxton box. Sorry I missed out. Will hopefully be able to see him at the Big Ears Festival in March, though.

Bluesnik Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 A set I love, because I like small group swing very much. And I never enjoyed it like today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles65 Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 Just finished disc I Woody Herman 1943-1954. Nice arrangements. I allways have to revise my opinion on Woody's clarinet playing. It's Always better than I remember. But not on par with Goodman or Shaw. Ben Webster's solos are great but to short. Best track: Crying sands.

Just got back from the new Star Wars movie and am contemplating a late-night spin of disc 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Thanks for that - looking forward to this set even more ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 Disc 3 of the new Mobley right now, after having listened to disc 3 of the new Herman earlier. So nice to have fresh Mosaics in the house the Sunday before Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted December 24, 2019 Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 Disc 4 of the new Mobley Mosaic. Still crazy to think that A Slice Of The Top stayed on the shelf for 13 years before being released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still crazy to think that A Slice Of The Top stayed on the shelf for 13 years before being released. Slice of the Top is my #1 favorite Mobley leader-date. Great in every way: writing, arranging, ensemble-work, soloing, complete with Lee Morgan — what’s not to love!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 Tal Euro-Mosaic, CD2 There’s a great little bio of Tal in the booklet. Sounds like a great, well-grounded and friendly guy as well as being a guitar genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 Taking a break from Tubby Hayes set with Discs 5 & 6 from JJ Johnson Columbia Small Group Sessions. Brilliant set in stunning sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
