sidewinder Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) 2CD version. Sonically, more than acceptable. In the process of dusting it and its colleagues, now have a sneezing fit though ! Edited November 21, 2022 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stompin at the Savoy Posted November 26, 2022 Report Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Listening to this as I await the arrival of the recent The Complete Louis Armstrong Columbia & RCA Victor Studio Sessions 1946-66.

Jim Duckworth Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 I've had this set since it came out and have utterly failed to enjoy it over the years. A bit of judicious editing (the vocals and Satin Doll-which I cannot seem to like) and it's pretty listenable. I've played this one so infrequently the top is still 100% affixed to the rest of the box-a rarity for Mosaics of this vintage in my collection.

Stompin at the Savoy Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I've been listening a lot to the Shorty Rogers set which I recently obtained. But today I was thinking about this, which I bought new when it came out. I come back to it periodically and it grows on you. Tram, Bix, and Lang and Tea, oh yeah.

Bluesnik Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Today I will be listening to The Gerald Wilson Mosaic. In a little while. Celebrating I read about him in Jazz in Detroit. So he's a Detroiter (?). Edited December 16, 2022 by Bluesnik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjzee Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 Disc 1. Â Sound quality is very nice and smooth. Â Intriguing note: Mosaic says the front cover photo is "With the J.J. Johnson Quintet at The Village Vanguard, NYC, July 1960." Â Was this recorded? Â Why was Francis Wolff photographing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 (edited) I doubt that they could record that Quintet as it was signed to Columbia, probably exclusively. Maybe they were just out to hear the group, and Francis probably took his camera around with him. This was not long after "Open Sesame" was recorded.

ghost of miles Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 One of my earliest and still one of my favorites (along with the Andrew Hill 1963-66, which was my first Mosaic purchase): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stompin at the Savoy Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 The other day I snagged surprisingly inexpensive (and in beautiful shape) copies of this and the Herman Capitol box. Swinging. And wacky! Some throwaway songs but some great arrangements and soloing.
