Just a note to get the discussion going on a forthcoming Mosaic set with all the Oscar Peterson Verve Trio's with Herb Ellis. Sceduled for later this year. Will post more details when they are mailed to me by MC.

Correction: It's 1951 to '53. All the sessions with Barney Kessel before Herb Ellis joined!

Yes, with Kessel it could be interesting enough... don't have much of the trio with Ellis (or the later one with Thigpen) and don't feel like buying much more than I have... but with Kessel - any idea how big that set would be? The bigger, the less likely I'll buy, I guess.

Great news!!!

If they can make a Peterson Mosaic, why can't we at the very least get a Three Sounds Select or even a little itty bitty CD? :(

Because OP was a worldwide star for 50 years while the Three Sounds 'just' helped keep Blue Note afloat?

is there anything by oscar peterson that is not in print at the moment ? :unsure:

whenever i look in the jazz section in the cd-stores over here i get the impression that every second disc is an oscar peterson trio album ... :wacko:

There are actually many Clef/Verve albums that haven't been on CD.

Unfortunately I think several albums will be incompletely represented on this Mosaic set, since many 12" albums drew their material from different sessions in the 1951-54 period, some with Kessel and some without.

Well, there's no Mosaic OP title, and I can see the appeal of having one. And this is a good choice of "theme" and the music that will be found on this set is bound to be quite nice. (What I know of the material is good!)
