I believe you will see some action in the future from the Xanadu catalogue, but not from Mosaic.
Oh.... do tell!
Zev Feldman is going to be reissuing several Xanadu titles next year on the Elemental Music label,
I have these:
Dr. Chicago, Clifford Jordan, 1985, Bee Hive BH 7018
The Burn Brigade, Nick Brignola, 1980, Bee Hive BH 7010
Fire And Filigree, Curtis Fuller, 1979, Bee Hive BH 7007
Every one a fine session.
Regarding Wayne's soprano sound, I think it's the very best ever. In modern times, Tim Garland has a wonderful sound on soprano ( and tenor) also.
In fact, regarding the recording mentioned in the title of the post, I would buy any of them just for his soprano sound and let the other chips fall were they may.
There are a lot of buffoons that work at JALC. Here's one minor example:
Known for his originative four-mallet approach to the vibes, Hutcherson is one of the pioneers of his instrument along with greats Lionel Hampton and Milt Jackson.
Bobby is a master and a innovator, but he hasn't used the four mallet style in decades. I'm sure some minion plagiarized this from somewhere.
As far as the vibraphonist that are playing the tribute, Nelson and Wolf are fine musicians, but the real direct line heir to Bobby H. is Joe Locke.
I heard some of it, but I was driving in my car so maybe my lukewarm impression is skewed.
Then again, Roney isn't a favorite either so I'm maybe not the best candidate for a positive review in any case.
I first saw/heard him with Horace Silver in a band that included Tom Harrell. Joe Locke's 4 Walls of Freedom had what I believe is his last recorded work. Great Recording! Billy Higgins' Soweto has some very good Berg, also.
