Some great choices so far. I'd add Wenders.

Now spinning: with arrangements by William S. Fischer

Bill Barron as a leader Bill Dixon as leader/producer for Savoy, or Savoy avant-garde in general George Russell in Europe (Saba, Concept, Flying Dutchman). Could include Soul Notes too but not sure if CAM would license those...

Sold

One I just heard of recently and really enjoyed is Harry Allen’s Christmas In Swingtime from 2001. With Jake Hanna, Peter Bernstein, and Larry Goldings on organ. A hip and swinging group playing the classics in a succinct, tasteful way.

Complete 1970's Max Roach Quartet with Billy Harper.

MCA Records MCA2-4017 - George Russell " New York,N.Y & Jazz In The Space Age" -

I was thinking the same thing.

If the guys at Craft were hip, they'd reissue this, and on a twofer CD as well.

Inocente

Haven't you answered your own question of why its never been reissued? From what you have been posting I assumed this was a super terrific Christmas set and impossible to even hear.

There've been quite a few Mosaic sets containing recordings made in 1960 and later. While Mosaic's direction, with some notable exceptions, currently seems pointed toward pre-1960s recordings, what potential (and realistic) post-1960 sets would you like to see Mosaic release?

New Point of Departure has the unabridged version of Brandon Burke's interview with Guy: https://pointofdeparture.org/PoD93/PoD93Kopelowicz.html Brandon used to post here regularly. Due to questions about rights and the estate, photos are not in the article.

I've only heard it through Bandcamp, but I agree. I sooo wish it would've had a new compact disc reissue. At least vinyl is out there.

He could have been Phil Upchurch's successsor, if he hadn't tragically died so young ... an enormous talent.
