connoisseur series500 Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 byrd and adams disc #2 i can't wait for this one to go to last call ss1 why?? Quote
king ubu Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 Will soon be enjoying the Mulligan CJB - finally! Picked it up in its Universal version in a store I NEVER imagined to have it, and for quite a good prize, as well (a bit less than the Mosaic prize, no shipping, no taxes, no nothing). The set I have has no number, but it states that it's part of the 7500 edition - so there will be numbers NOT on any of these sets... strange! ubu Quote
Tony Pusey Posted September 7, 2004 Report Posted September 7, 2004 Duke Ellington, complete Capitol sessions. Quote
brownie Posted September 7, 2004 Report Posted September 7, 2004 Not a Mosaic but have enjoyed these past few days discs 1 thru 12 of the 24CD RCA Duke Ellington Centennial Edition. A Mosaic class reissue! Been waiting for years for Columbia to go ahead on a similar box with their pre-1952 Ellington sessions! If Columbia won't work on this, let's have Mosaic do it! Next on the listening range will be discs 13 to 24 of the RCA box. Quote
vibes Posted September 7, 2004 Report Posted September 7, 2004 Lee Morgan/Wayne Shorter Vee-Jay set - The Young Lions session Quote
LAL Posted October 5, 2004 Report Posted October 5, 2004 Gene Krupa/Harry James Mosaic - disc 7 ~ Starting this set from the last disc. Some nice Ernie Wilkins & Neal Hefti arrangements. The James' band sound a little like the Basie new testament. Quote
LAL Posted October 11, 2004 Report Posted October 11, 2004 Just completed listening to the Harry James recordings over the weekend. Nice swinging music, immaculate arrangements and playing. Really liked the 4 songs with Helen Forrest on vocals too. Quote
sidewinder Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 'Kenton Presents' CD1, the Bob Cooper sessions. Malcolm does it again ! Quote
Clunky Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 Disc 1 " Complete Verve Tal Farlow Concert Band Sessions" , lovely unassuming stuff. Think I'll stick to regular Mosaics from Mosaic from now on. Then again this euro set was very cheap at £62. Quote
sidewinder Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 " Complete Verve Tal Farlow Concert Band Sessions" Cracks me up every time I read it ! Quote
vibes Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 Bennie Green Select, "Soul Stirrin'" session. Quote
sidewinder Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Teddy Wilson LP1 - lovely stuff.. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 The first Krupa disc. Listened to the Christy/Lee set for the first time earlier today. Loved the Lee; the Christy stuff pretty much left me cold... Quote
wesbed Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 Listened to the Christy/Lee set for the first time earlier today. Loved the Lee; the Christy stuff pretty much left me cold... I felt the same way the first time I listened to the Christy/Lee set. Upon repeated listening, however, June Christy has become my preferred singer from the set. She is just oh so cool. I really enjoy the "You're Blasé" track. Quote
Dave James Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 The Carmell Jones Select. Some mighty fine stuff on this one...especially the nonet and sextet sessions arranged by Gerald Wilson on disc 2. Not to mention the fact that the elusive Hadley Caliman is in the tenor chair for one of the sesssions on the third disc. Up over and out. Quote
BruceH Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 I plan to put on the Bud Shank tonight. Does that count?? Quote
ajf67 Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 I've been playing a lot of the Anita O'Day box. She's consistent throughout, but there are so many different groups behind her that they become the most interesting thing about the set to me. Some really great players on this one. Quote
