I am most intrigued by the expansion of "old stand by" sets with mostly guaranteed audiences to now include a Verve recording artist. (well, for most of these anyway).  Seems like the same effort to keep the lights on with a set with a strong likelihood of sales at this point in time. Not that i don't support Mosaic doing what is necessary to keep the lights on.

That's why I'm confused. I'm extremely interested (and will need to dig through the discography more) but my instinct was that more of this has been out on CD... I mean his estate is the main body (his daughter) who's putting out unreleased stuff and all of that is live, previously unreleased material. I guess I find it hard to think that's there's a lot of studio stuff that hasn't been out before... (Is what I'm saying making sense?) 

I know some on the Board are not big fans of O.P., but I enjoy his playing and always liked this trio. Like Lon, I've ordered every Mosaic for a long time (even the Pharaoh Sanders, though that took some thinking), and I also don't have all these, so I'm looking forward to it.

I'm not sure how Mosaic is listing these, not no, more than three have appeared on cd. And yes, Weiss is a co-producer.

A bit off-track but Harry Babasin has a song called "Evening In Azerbaijan."  It took quite a while to track down (EmArcy MG-36123), but it does exist and I have a copy.  I simply can't remember off the top of my head if it borrows heavily from Night in Tunisia or maybe just takes the chords, or indeed if it is a completely different tune.  I'll try to listen again tonight.
