How is it?? Seems a little pricey but I might have to consider it. I assume these are live dates? Who's in the band? Thanks I have it - it came out in '92.

Glad you got it.. It's my Top 5 Mosaics...

Count Basie Live Roulette Recordings Disc 2.. Went through Discs 1, 3 and 4 in the car... No matter how much I hear Joe Williams I am so grateful I got to see him perform live...

Caught her at the Newport Jazz Festival last year and she was quite impressive...

thanks

Woo Hoo!!!! Great news... We'll take it!

I've been listening to the entire Tal Farlow set in my car... This is one of the very few times I've been compelled to listen to an entire set in sequence (more than a few times). I repeatedly find both the music and sound quality outstanding... I love this set. (Thanks Ron S.)... This set has long been one of my top 5 and this process is just reaffirming that.

That's sad news...

thanks for the heads up on that one.. Just grabbed it... $15 is too good to pass up.... :excited:

Good question... Those of who had the Albums/cd's... ?????

I thoroughly enjoyed the Monk book... What's the new going to be about? The title doesn't say much.

Oh this is horrible.... I'll be there next week!! Thanks for everything Jack! I guess the cat is out of the bag. Yes, we will be gone at the end of March. Until then, it's business as usual.

I have the Johnny Smith set... I would say it's good not great... It does get a fair amount of play in my house.... Not close to the Farlow but a good set nonetheless.

Ahmad Jamal Disc 7... Can't get enough of this set... :party: :party: I assume no one's still on the fence about this one, right???? :crazy: :unsure:

I have it and that's not my experience of it.

I was listening to a couple CDs from the Sonny Stitt set in my car... Hadn't listened to that set in years..... I'm surprised this one is still in print....

It is a pretty good set... From what I remember Mike Manieri's playing is also a highlight....

thanks for that link.. Kinda interesting...

You're making me a little more interested in this set... I'm going to have to dig out Dedicated to Connie and take another listen...

No not really... I just take the tack that most Mosaic sets are worth buying...(I just make Mosaic sets a moderately high discretionary item....) You must have plenty of green to spare if you're ready to spring for a Mosaic box on a group you don't dig.

I continue to see a plethora of typos and misspellings since more and more organizations/companies increase their online/blog sites... Horrible...

Although I've never been a huge MJQ fan... I think I probably will get this set and try to give them another try....

So does this mean that Hip-O-Select is the new bully on the block... My main issue is that their stuff is really overpriced (presumably justified by them with extremely mediocre and unnecessary packaging...)... I thought we were done with BAD overpriced packaging at the end of the 1990s :(

I don't get this partnership at all... Hip-O-Select is a relatively new player with overpriced recordings and mediocre packaging... Why not release the Getz as a Mosaic Select? I hope this is not a portend of things to come....

Can's really answer any of your questions but it was a great label... I got a lot of those when they came out especially the two-fers... Only wish I had gotten those Woody Shaw two-fers....
