Guests include Ben Webster, Benny Carter, Don Byas, Vic Dickenson, Coleman Hawkins, Buck Clayton, Charlie Shavers, Brew Moore and others. 5 CDs + a DVD A great set! Now listening to: Various Artists: Jazz In Sweden 1949-1961 - The Legendary Years (Rhino) disc 1 Disc 1 contains superb recordings by Harry Arnold and his Swedish Radio Studio Orchestra from 1957-61, among the first rate soloists are: Bengt-Arne Wallin, Benny Bailey, Ake Persson, Arne Domnerus, Bjarne Nerem, Lucky Thompson, Bengt Hallberg, Egil Johanssen Quote
thomastreichler Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 Various Artists: Jazz In Sweden 1949-1961 - The Legendary Years (Rhino) disc 2 Many familiar and some unknown (at least for me) names, great musicians all of them. First category: Ake Persson, Bengt Hallberg, Arne Domnerus, Putte Wickman, Bjarne Nerem, Georg Riedel, Jan Johansson, Rolf Ericson, Nils-Bertil Dahlander, Rune Gustafsson. Second category: Erik Nordström (tenorsax player strongly influenced by Stan Getz and Zoot Sims), Arnold Johansson (agile valve-trombone player with a nice fat tone), Allan Lundström (fine fluent tenor Al Cohn school), Anders Burman (swinging drummer).

felser Posted June 18, 2009 Report Posted June 18, 2009 Not jazz, but great music: Complete Motown Singes, volume 11B - 1971. CD5, "Ball of Confusion" by the Undisputed Truth. GREAT Norman Whitfield work! Quote
Matthew Posted June 19, 2009 Report Posted June 19, 2009 With all the talk of the upcoming Artie Shaw Mosaic, I broke out the Artie Shaw: Begin the Beguine box set; listening to cd five, Alone Together. This is a very good box set for Shaw, ten cds at a cheap price and the sound is very good (most of the time), and I happen to like to vocals also! (hear that Mosaic?) Quote
jeffcrom Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 The Duke Ellington Centennial Edition complete RCA Victor set - the And His Mother Called Him Bill sessions. After a strange Errol Parker album, this was calling me - one of Ellington's most touching albums. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Joe Hen: Milestone Years disc 2. Got this for my birthday. Already have the singles of "In Japan" and "At the Lighthouse", but the sound on the set is excellent so far Quote

CJ Shearn Posted June 23, 2009 Report Posted June 23, 2009 Joe Henderson: The Milestone years Disc 4 (In Pursuit of Blackness, 3/4ths of In Japan) Got the set for my birthday and gave the individual disc of Lighthouse and In Japan to my neighbor for his birthday, he's a huge Joe fan. I actually am preferring the sound of these 2 sessions on the box, listening through Audio Technica ATH-M40FS studio monitor phones. Quote
