Probably the Columbia Jazz set. . . in due time

I'm with you on that one Lon. I'm looking for it to be here on Christmas morning. I haven't heard a lot about this set, but with Buck Clayton, Ruby Braff, Pee Wee, Ben Webster, how can you go wrong.....

Reece, Brookmeyer, or Shank Select (fall or winter 06)

Andrew Hill select in early spring 06.

--of course, this could all change if the Parlan or Roach go on the 'last call' list

A couple of days ago I listened to Oliver Nelson Vol. 48 in the Verve Jazz Masters Series. It sounded GREAT! and caused me to add the Nelson to my Mosaic list, though it will won't be my next purchase by any means. But get ready folks, because this will be a wonderful set.

The Brookmeyer Select is a must-have (IMHO)... I was on the fence for A LONG time on this one... and am very glad I picked it up...

Doesn't get a lot of talk on this site... but I suspect folks who got it... like it....

Parlan's high on my list, especially when it becomes endangered.  That goes for Hodges, also.

Parlan yes. Could never really get into the Hodges. Probably sell it when it retires.

Some of the Selects coming up look nice like the Pacific Piano and Tolliver but the killers will be Chu Berry and Oliver Nelson. I'm sure they're going to be fantastic.

Oliver Nelson really doesn't sound great to me lately, I'll not jump into that one. I have likely all the Chu Berry material (darn it!) I'm not that excited about upcoming stuff I guess!

Wow, it's the opposite for me, I think the Hodges is about twice better than the Parlan (which I like but. . . Johnny Hodges!)

I love the Parlan set but I think Parlan recorded his best sessions (at least the trio sessions) for SteepleChase and not for Blue Note.

That's what I'm hoping, the Berry I'll get for sure. The Jazz Masters series sampler of Oliver Nelson's is very good and does stimulate my interest in this set.

Any opinions on the Bennie Green select? I've been on the fence on that one for a REAL long time...

I've really enjoyed this one- dripping with soulful swing. Soul Stirrin' is a favorite Blue Note for me, 'cause I do loves me some Jug and Elvin. BG is a swinging trombonist, to my ears shares some similarities with the great Willie Dennis (see the Mulligan CJB Mosaic for some greta WD). You've also got Turrentine and Quebec, how much more can you ask for? I do listen to this one more than some of the Selects.

I say :tup:tup

I agree about Nelson. He wore off on me some time ago and I doubt I'll be revisiting this material in its new setting, even though I don't know it all.

Chu Berry is another matter...

Yes, the Bennie Green is great. Though I must say I prefer the sound of the Japanese cds of these sessions which I have. BUT one session appears here in stereo (for the first time?) that is mono on the other cd I have.
