Jazzmoose Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 Anyone else find it a bit unsettling that this thread is getting so little response, enthusiastic or otherwise? Can't imagine that bodes well for sales of the set... at least as emanating from our little OrgWorld. ← I wasn't going to respond, but since you asked, no, I'm not going to pick this one up. Let's just say that Buddy Rich isn't my cup of tea. ← This one won't be on my short list either. Hey, I can't buy everything, even if the wife thinks I'm trying... Quote
sidewinder Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 After listening to the 2LP UK Verve set 'Strike It Rich' my appetite for this Mosaic has definitely been whetted. There's some blistering early work by Sonny Criss on these tracks, recorded by Rich in LA. Very fine mainstream jazz and very well recorded ! Quote
Free For All Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 I was told that Cuscuna said 'There's not much left out there to release'. ← I would have agreed a while ago, but the discovery of the Bird/Diz and Monk/Trane concerts has me believing that there very likely is much out there that hasn't yet been discovered. I hope I'm right. Quote
DukeCity Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Will this include tracks of Rich lecturing the band? ← The House of David Baseball Team, for you "Buddy Rich tapes" fans. ← "I want young men...with faces!" -- Buddy Quote
Free For All Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 "We'll see how you do UP there WITHOUT all the assistance!" -Buddy line that was used on a Seinfeld episode Quote
