Next Selects

[BFS]

The next Select Sets (after the Curtis Amy and Duke Pearson sets due by year end) will be 3 CD sets by Bob Brookmeyer (# 9 in the Select series) and another of Bud Shank with Bob Cooper (#10 in the series). Projected release date: late Jan. '04.

I assumed that all the Bud Shank/BobCooper dates were included in the Shank Mosaic box.

Was I wrong?

There are also the two Shank/Cooper sessions that were on one of the Pacific Conns. I have no idea what else will be on it, but I hope it does not dublicate the Shank set!

The two West Coast Classic titles (Shank's Blowin' Country and Brookmeyer's Traditionalism Revisted) will be duplicated, but other than that, this music will be new to compact disc. In the case of Traditionalism Revisited, the track "Jada," which is on the original vinyl version but not on the 1998 West Coast Classics disc, will be added to that session's songlist. Here are some details regarding these two Mosaic Selects:

BUD SHANK / BOB COOPER / BOB BROOKMEYER Mosaic Select

Bud Shank / Bob Cooper - PJLP-14

Bud Shank / Bob Brookmeyer - PJLP-20

Alternates for some tracks from above sessions on JWC-500

There was a brief discussion of these Sets when they were announced a while ago.

[P.D.]

Both the Cooper and Brookmeyer sets offer some hard to find sessions. Most have only been available on vinyl.

Strangely some of the Coopers ( Jazz at Cal Tech etc) showed up recently in the local used vinyl bins... could there be a Mosaic purchaser dumping his vinyl in the neighborhood?

JaDa from Traditionalism.. has been issued.. it is on the vinyl copy I have.. but for some reason it was left off the CD issue

Thanks for the correction, Peter. Will edit!
