Which Mosaic Are You Enjoying Right Now?

[Matthew]

Decided that I need to make my way through Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions since I haven't listened to it in a long time. Disk one right now, Paul Whitman is blasting as I type.

Disk two now. The Nappy LaMare stuff is very nice.

Earlier today on the sunlounger with a beer - Charles Tolliver Select CD1

[GA Russell]

Ike Quebec 45s, disc 1

[sidewinder]

Woody Shaw CD2. Inspired by a recent viewing of that great Griffin/Shaw 'Subway' video.

[GA Russell]

Chet Baker Live PJ, disc 2

The music of this box was released by PJ as three separate CDs in 2000-2001. I think that more tracks were found for those later releases, but I haven't gone over the lists track by track to be sure.

Up to disk five now, The Cootie Williams sessions which, for me, are one of the highlights of the whole box. Great music.

[GARussell]

Before: A 1989 PJ CD entitled Trio which features 12 Russ Freeman sides from 1953 and 8 Richard Twardzik sides from 1954. I believe that all tracks are included in the PJ Piano Trios Select.

Now: Herbie Nichols, disc 2.

Mulligan Concert Band

[king ubu]

yesterday: disc 2-4 of the Elvin Jones Mosaic (all three albums with Wilbur Little on bass plus the first with the new band w/Gene Perla and Dave Liebman) - fantastic!

now: Harry James Capitol recordings (discs 5-7 of the Krupa/James box) - rather nice, didn't expect to like it that much...

to be followed by disc 3 of the Woody Herman, I think... will see.

[king ubu]

Went with Roy Eldridge, not Woody Herman... into disc 2 by now

[Tom 1960]

Disc 1

A really outstanding collection. As much as I admire Dizzy's fine work, Tubby Hayes is just outstanding on this first disc. An artist I need to explore in greater detail.

[Kalo]

The Ciomplete Atlantic Recordings of Lennie Tristano, Lee Konitz & Warne Marsh

Disc 3

[Matthew]

The Complete Blue Note Recordings of Freddie Redd. Disk one. I'm still in shock over today. I go into Silver Platters in North Seattle, and I'm about ready to leave, I look down under the used jazz cd bin, and there's the Freddie Redd Mosaic for $29.99, so I jump on it. The set is in mint conditions too. Pure luck.

Good grief ! Nice find indeed - congrats.

I once found the Bechet and Herbie Nichols CD boxes in a store for £10-15 each with bent boxes but the books and CDs were fine.

Currently spinning 'Curtis Amy Select' CD3.

Got the Onzy Matthews Select yesterday. Really pleased to do so. Very nice stuff, a bit along the lines of Gerald Wislon, but more raw and brash - Clifford Scott makes a difference there, I think.
