Stan Kenton - Capitol 1943-47 - disc 2 by now - some fine June Christy here!

(never managed to find the Holman/Russo box, but I guess i have most of that on individual Blue Note/Capitol CD reissues by now)

Mosaic Commodore volume 1. The Teddy Wilson record is a real gem. I like this collection more and more.

No kidding. Fantastic music, almost everything on that label is fascinating to hear.

Right now, Columbia Piano Jazz Moods.

What a pity Mosaic didn't issue this fabulous collection on CD...

Yeah, and the least they could have done is keep one of each of the LP sets for me, for the time I found out about Mosaic... or even better, a couple of more years, until I'd have had the knowledge and some money. <_<

into disc 4 by now - very enjoyable! I could do with a bit less Vido Musso and less of the boy singer, too - Christy on the other hand :wub:

Finished the 43-47 box - great one! never made it all the way through before, and I have to say I liked it a lot this time!

The Holman/Russo set absolutely smokes. Recommended without reservation.

Would you have the discography to post here? I never found out what exactly is on that set and would appreciate being able to compare with the single CDs I have (Potraits & Sketches on Standards, New Concepts of Artistry, Kenton Showcase are the ones falling into that period, I think, as well as one lone Russo arrangement on "Easy Go").

The least they could have done is saved me a copy of each volume of the Commodore super-set, and sent 'em to me for Christmas.

Just received Gerald Wilson and Jazztet Boxes today and have begun listening to them alternately, starting with first disc of Wilson, then Jazztet, etc.

Loving both of them so far...
