Miles Davis Complete in a Silent Way Sessions record 2 - this set still has a strange sound quality to me. It is a little flat and lacking oomph - maybe getting a couch in the living room this weekend will help, but the effect is far more pronounced on this set than on my other records.

Today I made a Mosaic purchase that I believe will forever change my life. I bought the Django Reinhardt set, and by early next week I will be sitting back, pretending I am listening to it in a smoky Paris cafe while reading Sartre.

How existential! :cool:

That Django set seems to have been in print forever.

Currently spinning Count Basie 'Complete Roulette Studio Recordings', LP2. This one and the 'Live' box will be in heavy rotation this weekend. Timeless !

Can we come to the cafe???

Thad Jones & Mel Lewis LP3.

Fabulous set. The improvement in sound over the original Solid States is very significant. Love the booklet too !

ARGH! Wish I had that one.... :angry:

I'm enjoying the fact that I finally got a shipping confirmation for my Roach set - phew! The Berigan still hasn't arrived, so I'm looking forward a lot to both of these! During the wait, I'll try and make my way all through the Mildred Bailey, a great one, in my opinion!

Chu Berry, disc 5. The Hampton and Manone sides aren't quite as enjoyable for me so far, but there are some very good moments--Chu's playing on "Sweethearts on Parade" (which really does seem to anticipate Hampton's Jacquet turn in the 1940s) and the modern-sounding "Shufflin' at the Hollywood."

I'm listening to that set as well. Disc III which I really like. This set is another sonic wonder from the team of Ellen Fitton (tape transfers) and Malcolm Addey (mastering).
