Mosaic Select: Toshiko Akiyoshi-Lew Tabackin Big Band


Recommended Posts

Offered for sale is a great (and pretty rare) Mosaic Select:


Mosaic Select: Toshiko Akiyoshi-Lew Tabackin Big Band
(3 CD, Mosaic Select, 2008)
Limited Edition of 5,000 sets


This is a nice copy. Jewel cases and CDs are all in NM condition. Booklet is in nice condition save for a small (approx. 1") crease to top of rear cover of booklet. Slipcase is VG+ due to the usual minor shelf wear to slipcase corners (quite common on the thin cardboard Mosaic Select slipcases), some slight rubbing to upper front panel of slipcase, and a small, perhaps 1/4", rubbed area to lower right corner of lower spine of slipcase due to what appears to be a price sticker removal as it still has a very small edge of price sticker present there.

$79 + $6 media mail shipping (U.S. shipping only)
Payment by pay pal friends/family

Pics available upon request (please pm me an email address if pics desired so I can email photos).

I think this is a fantastic set -- I absorbed these records in real time in the 1970s and played a good number of these charts along the way. Toshiko's best work is represented here, and I think that's true for Lew too. They hold up really well.

Odd as it may seem (or not?), NT in the 70s was not the place I needed to be to foster an appreciation of that band.

But some decades and distances later, fresh ears and a cleared head about it were just the trick!
