Jazz in Paris

[Brad]

I didn't order the Max Roach but isn't that a duplicate of what's on the Mosaic?

[jazzbo]

Yes, it's on the Mosaic!

[RDK]

Received my first batch yesterday and have been slowly making my way through them. The Barney Wilen is the standout so far, but I've only listened to 5 or 6 of them. The Byas and Peiffer (sp?) discs were sold out. Does DG usually get more of this kind of stuff in or should I search elsewhere for the "missing" discs that I'm interested in? Either way, I think I'll order a few more tomorrow... B-)

I had the Barney before the sale and it is a standout. I like the story in the booklet about how a listening session of 78s led to the Reinhardt & Trenet songs being played at the session.

I'm not sure how Dusty restocks things, but be sure to pick the Byas offerings by any means necessary (well, short of high crimes, but misdemeanor at will!) I will have to go beyond this series to hear more from him, as what a discovery 50+ years after the fact!

And thanks to Brownie for suggesting #54, Clarinettes - a Saint-Germain des Pres featuring a session each from Hubert Rostaing & Maurice Meunier, as this one would have passed me by otherwise. The timing was perfect too, as I got the Reinhardt Mosaic for Christmas.

OK, as great as this series is, I'm still staying away from the Dusty site for....maybe another week or...must...not...click....

[ghost of miles]

One of the pleasing surprises for me so far: Raymond Fol's big-band take on Vivaldi's THE FOUR SEASONS.

[RDK]

FYI.... a lot of titles that were temporarily unavailable are back in stock. Some are already sold out again. I should have another batch waiting for me at home tonight.

[LAL]

Going to place my fourth order of J.I.Ps now - there goes another stack of dollars.

[Late]

Listened to this one this afternoon. If you're a Shearing fan, or a Benny Goodman fan, you'd probably like this disc. Some fun tracks on it.

The Byas discs and most of the Thompson discs are back in stock I see. Good news, and another opportunity for those who don't yet have them.
