'The Complete Max Roach Plus Four Mercury' box, 7CDs. Spurred on by the Max Mosaic thread and about time I gave this one another spin. CD1 - sounding excellent, first time I have heard this set since changing the pre-amp.

"Synthetic" Andrew Hill: all the single Blue Note CDs that were collected for the Mosaic.

One of my first Mosaics and still one of my all-time faves.

I've been listening to a lot of Sidney Bechet recently.  Great stuff!

I wasn't sure if I really liked Artie Shaw.  A while back I gave his Centennial Selection disk a good listen and decided yes, this is good big-band stuff and quite a bit of it does swing pretty nicely.  And I've gotten into big band a lot in recent years.  So recently found a copy of the Mosaic and have been checking it out.

There are two 2 cd sets called "Last Sessions" that have all star small ensemble recordings by Shaw that are wonderful.

Scott Wenzel's lovely epitaph for Dan Morganstern in which he discusses the latter's notes for this set caused me to get it out and give it a listen.
