Now on to this classic, in mono form. Herbie Hancock “Maiden Voyage” Blue Note Japan Platinum SHM-CD And then More mono, this time re-listening to disc 4 of this great new Mosaic set. 300×300 17.8 KB Classic Decca Recordings Of Bob Crosby And His Orchestra & The Bob Cats (1936-1942) It’s interesting that this band grew out of the Ben Pollack band, a band I’ve always enjoyed.

I don't think one can hold Mosaic responsible for the "tagging" of the digital files uploaded.

👍 - sounds great too IMHO.

Someone who digitized the recordings, I guess? So wasn't Mosaic involved at some point (remastering, for example??) in this process for each of these recordings that went into their releases? Even if they weren't the first to have digitized the music.

Do the labels create the metadata?

Don Byas? Pop?? This??? What were they thinking at Mosaic?? I could understand the "pop" tag with some of his French ballad recordings from the 50s, but here??

I'll have to pull my cdr of that session out. In my recollection, it's neither as bad as Cuscuna made it out to be, nor necessarily as good as what did come out around that time.

Up for renewed reading. I'd forgotten about the Steve Lehman interview.

I didn't create the artwork, but I think a member of this board did. (I can't remember who.) The image has been floating around the internet for a while. I agree that it's excellent.

Maybe in conjunction with Michael Garrick? I'm not sure how many discs a Harriott set would be. I'd support the endeavor.

That shirt design could be trying to make a point that the music of Strata-East is no longer outsider music and is now staking it's claim astral and true American music and by extension real America. If that's the intent, then that's a pretty radical notion itself

Bread Of Angels, her new memoir, is supposed to be good.

hanks for the link BTW, I'm currently reading the 33 1/3/Bloomsbury book on Television's "Marquee Moon" - covers the early US punk scene transitioning from the glam scene (New York Dolls etc), particularly the CBGB's years. Lots of Patti S included.

A high school classmate played with Patti Smith, Benji King. He died from a head injury while taking subway stairs in NYC a few years ago. https://www.discogs.com/artist/850459-Benjy-King?superFilter=Credits
