Here's one of the things I'm still confused about. I have this set. It overlaps conceptually and time-wise with the Mosaic set but I'm getting the sense that the Mosaic set doesn't just duplicate this. Am I wrong? I'm finding this so confusing.... https://www.allmusic.com/album/the-complete-norman-granz-jam-sessions-mw0000143380

Well.. I might be one of the few... but I preordered... Happy Holidays to all.

Wow... I thought that this would have generated more interest here but I guess a lot of have some or most of this? Even though I have almost no idea what's been previously available on CD....

Why?

I totally don't get it... I may be dense but I don't understand. Usually in their discographies they do us the favor of listing what sessions have been previously released on CD... That's one of the ways I evaluate whether I'm in or not.. I'm not buying sets which I already have on CD... It may be me, but I find this very confusing.

So I'm still confused by the discography. What if anything has previously been on CD? The Mosaic page implies almost none of it has been on CD before... but that doesn't seem right.... Album Index: 10” LP Concert Blues is a “bonus” LP as part of the Clef MG Vol. 16 shown below. 12” LP Clef MG Vol. 11 (2 LP) Norman Granz’ Jazz at the Philharmonic # 11 Clef MG Vol. 15 (3 LP) Norman Granz’ Jazz at the Philharmonic # 15 Clef MG Vol. 16 (4 LP) Norman Granz’ Jazz at the Philharmonic # 16 Clef MG Vol. 17 (3 LP) Norman Granz’ Jazz at the Philharmonic # 17 Norgran MG JC-1 (2 LP) Norman Granz’ Jazz Concert # 1 Verve MG V-8231-2 (2 LP) Jazz at the Hollywood Bowl Verve 825-101 Lester Young – Carnegie Blues Verve MGVS 6026 (Stereo) Ella Fitzgerald At The Opera House Verve MGV 8264 (Mono) Ella Fitzgerald At The Opera House Verve MGVS 6027 (Stereo) Stan Getz and J.J. Johnson At The Opera House Verve MGV 8265 (Mono) Stan Getz and J.J. Johnson At The Opera House Verve MGVS 6028 (Stereo) Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge At The Opera House Verve MGV 8266 (Mono) Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge At The Opera House Verve MGV 8267 The JATP All Stars At The Opera House

I'm a little confused about one line in the description..... What do they mean "passed over for a retrospective?" Does that mean some of it was released as a single CD? The discography doesn't make it clear if this stuff has ever been on CD before (and if so, which recordings). Anybody know or got any insight? A First-Ever Collection JATP 1950s Jam Sessions JATP concerts from the 1940s were documented in 1998 on a 10-CD Verve boxed set. But until now, the 1950s concerts have been passed over for a retrospective.

I'm very interested in this but I'm confused. I found a photo that shows a 3rd double CD set but I can't find any info - any where about the 3rd set. Why isn't it being released with the other two? Anybody got any info? thanks.

Does anyone have an update on the JATP set that was rumored to be released in December?

so glad to see Monette Sudler recorded again...

I'll take this as a general no... Okay let me try a different bucket list question... Anyone gone to any of the following jazz festivals and was it worth it? Montreux, Monterey, New Orleans, Detroit, or Chicago? Trying to give myself an empty nester gift next year,

Seriously has anybody here taken any of these? Are they any good? My daughter is off to college next year and I'm starting to think about stuff to do as a single empty nester... https://thejazzcruise.com/

Okay so this came across several of my social media feeds but I can't find any more info than the paragraph listed on the website. Does anyone know anything? Twenty-two Mingus tunes should be like 3-5 CDs depending on the length of the tunes. https://www.charlesmingus.com/blog/new-album-from-mingus-big-band-the-charles-mingus-centennial-sessions Ok I found a little more... https://www.charlesmingus.com/centennial-sessions-vol-1

Amen... my bad for missing him....

The latest release from Snarky Puppy... At $8 on Bandcamp... it was a pretty good deal... I don't love every track but there's some good stuff in there.... https://snarkypuppy.bandcamp.com/album/empire-central

Absolutely true... I often saw both of them introducing artists at Newport.

I don't think it's been officially announced but it's been closed since COVID and has not reopened.

We will miss him here. Over the years WGBH kept cutting the amount of on-air time to jazz. I stopped listening at that point to move to WRTI and WGBO streams but I know he was a significant part of the jazz community here. Unfortunately with the Regattabar jazz club closing and Eric passing... things are getting weaker up here in Boston... Kinda sucks...

Jeez... they really are shipping these quick... I really hope this isn't going to be another set that's gone within a month... I would really like to wait and get the JATP first then the Freddie (maybe)....

I'm not sure if someone already posted this but I'm looking forward to it. Sounds like two 2-cd releases with a third forthcoming. Looks promising. Has anybody got any more info? https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/31/arts/music/ahmad-jamal-live-albums.html

Listening to it right now... I don't understand why he is so often forgotten???? My top 5 pianists (probably top 3).

I'm totally into this JATP set... so do we know how much of this set has been previously released on CD in the US?

Wow 10Cds.. JATP... okay I'm going to have to save my $ and hold off with the Hubbard to get that set. Who's likely to get the most tracks on this set??? Which of these has been on CD previously?

I can't get to the web page for some odd reason. Can someone post a synopsis of the set(s)? Also, I've got a question for you guys. Since Mosaic has gone through this new process of announcing a set close to its shipping date, it seems sets sell out MUCH quicker. It used to be that a set could be on the website for 3-6 months. Now it seems like they're gone after a month or so. Do we have an ETA for the JATP set? Also how long the Hubbard set is going to be available? I'm slightly inclined to get it as I only have one of those CDs but cash flow is low this month...

Hallelujah....!! I miss him. Thought the jazz world forgot about him. I'm there. Wish it was a boxed set though...
