DavidB.Wilkerson Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 Picked up the Dizzy set; it arrived yesterday. Listening to it now. Really digging the cuts from "The Greatest Trumpet Of Them All," with Gigi Gryce, Benny Golson, et. al. Quote
J.A.W. Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 The Bobby Hutcherson, Johnny Mercer, Denny Zeitlin and John Handy Selects are running low: http://www.mosaicrecords.com/lastchance.asp Quote
sidewinder Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) This is going to be an expensive month... I need the Zeitlin and Handy ! Edited February 12, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
BFrank Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I still need to get the Andrew Hill Select (MS-016). And now that I look at the 'Running Low' list, that Dizzy box looks mighty tempting, too. Kind of on the fence about the Hutcherson set - any opinions? Quote
sidewinder Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Kind of on the fence about the Hutcherson set - any opinions? Like it a lot - it gets played a lot (and I have pretty well all of it on vinyl, which reflects well on the sound quality of the Select). Wouldn't want to be without it - but then again I'm a big time fan of Booby. Good way to get hold of the rare 'Inner Glow' session too. Hill Select, Dizzy Box and Hutcherson Select. All 'must haves' in my book. Edited February 12, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
erwbol Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) I'm also a big (Blue Note) Hutcherson fan. I bought two 70s Hutchersons on BNLA999 reissues, one of which is not on the Select (the live album with Woody Shaw). Frankly, I'm more interested in next month's Head On SHM. I've downloaded FLACs of the Select and in the end only got the studio album with Woody Shaw on it. Edited February 12, 2014 by erwbol Quote
king ubu Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 This is going to be an expensive month... I need the Zeitlin and Handy ! Same here ... still not sure about the Hackett. Nor about the Johnny Mercer ... any endorsements regarding that one? Quote
sidewinder Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) I'd put the Johnny Mercer in the same category as the Bobby Hackett. Jazz quotient not that great but an interesting, enjoyable listen in the best tradition of Mosaic and some fine musicianship. The Capitol studio sound is good too. I've listened to the Hackett in full a few times on Spotify and like what I heard - it's going to be an order from me I think (last minute trigger push no doubt).

BFrank Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 Thanks for the 'Booby' input. His 60's stuff is 'must-have' for sure, but the clips on the site didn't bowl me over. On a side note, I see him at SFJazz events periodically and he seems quite frail - always has his oxygen with him. The plus side is, he has a string of performances scheduled there for next week, so he must be doing OK overall. Quote
mikeweil Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 If the Hutcherson and Zeitlin are still available in a week, I will place an order. Glad I already got Ellington's The Cosmic Scene, which is nice. The Andrew Hill is indispensable, IMHO. I wondered why it didn't sell out within weeks after he left this world. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 Let me be the one to say. . . I really like the Hutcherson. And I've bought every one of the new reissues available of this material, they sound a bit better. But it's good stuff. . .took me a bit at first to get into this material (pre-Select) but I got into it. . .really got into it. Quote
BFrank Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 Good enough for ME! I just ordered Andrew and Bobby. Quote
RiRiIII Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I just ordered Hutcherson and Mercer sets. I had got the Hill in the past and I love it. Edited February 13, 2014 by Alexandros Quote
Jay Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Hutch is one of my favorites - way up there. Going to pick up Denny and Handy ... I think. A little on the fence. Think I will pass on the Hackett, though he is a marvelous player. Ditto Mercer (well, great songwriter). Quote
sidewinder Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 John Handy Select is now listed in 'Last Chance'. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 Denny Zeitlin Mosaic Select now on 'last chance'. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 The Zeitlin is fantastic, grab it while you can!! Quote
sidewinder Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) The Zeitlin is fantastic, grab it while you can!! Ordered - along with the Handy and a few others. Blakey 'Hard Bop' now on Last Chance.. Edited February 20, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
