This is a really good set!

Well in that case... Paul Desmond & Jim Hall....

I thought he meant this one... http://mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=199-MD-CD Its oop...

I've always wondered about this set... No ONE talks about this... Convince me I should get this when it hits running low.... -_- -_- -_- -_- -_-

Anita - Disc 9... a belated tribute.. Damn she was good on this set!!! Personally I think is by far the best vocal set Mosaic has come out with... Those of you who didn't cough up the cash before it went OOP -

Sidney Bechet - Disc 2.. . the good news... Some GREAT blowing!!! The bad news.. WAY too many alternate takes... 12 of the 19 tunes are alternate takes...

In tribute to???

Don't know ... I don't have the LPs... I've got the two volume "Jazz classics" album (BLP1201 & 2). Is the material that isn't on those LPs as good? MG

Sidney Bechet Select - Disc 1-3... No one talks about this one.. but I like it so far...

Got through Of Course, Of Course yesterday.. EXC!!!!!!!

thoroughlly enjoying Stitt Disc 7... and soon Disc 8....

Bud Shank & Bob Cooper Disc 3... I don't care what you guys say I love this set.... Highly underrated....

Farmer Golson - Discs 2-3

Bennie Green Select Discs 1-3... Minus the Babs vocals...

any thoughts??? The Jazz Piano looks pretty interesting... I'm not much into Woody Herman but I might have to try the live version... http://mosaicrecords.com/futureprojects.asp

Cosmic Spacemen...

Just got through the Three Brothers.... not bad.... good sound...

i completely agree

Anita O'Day Disc 7.... the more I listen the more I like this set....

Elvin has left the building... GONE!!! off the Mosaic site... Those of you who missed it... blew it... it's a great set!!

The Farlow is outstanding... for a number of reasons.. Not to start another tread about the sound... but to my neophyte ears.. the sound on this set to be is the best I've heard on a Mosaic set... Secondly.. lots of trio/quartet configurations.. not a lot piano so you get to hear Farlow... and the bass.... and of course (thanks to Ron)... there was the cheaper price for the European version... price aside.... I just really like his playing....

Yea Ron... I'm so backed up with my Mosaic listening that I'm taking the "I MUST REALLY WANT IT" approach now... I suspect I think it will be okay.. but I seriously doubt that I would LOVE it... ( I would put the Mobley, Johnny Smith, Gerald Wilson in the okay.. I like them category... and the Farlow, Shank, Elvin, O'Day in the LOVE category... ) I've got the new Duke, and Selects on order not to mention the Classic Capitol sessions on order... This just isn't rising up the charts.... I got it. I like it.

I downloaded some MP3s' of Eldridge around the same time frame as the Mosaic set... I think I'm going to beg off this one... Just doesn't resonate for me... (I also have the feeling it will feel like the Columbia Swing Sessions and Johnny Hodges set... both of which did not work for me...)

Bud Shank Disc 1... I for one.. think this set is great... and underappreciated.....

I've been contemplating whether or not to get this set... and I don't hear a lot of enthusiam for it on this board... I only recall a couple of folks mentioning it in their "what's playing" list... I had the bad Proper box which contained some of the dates and I didn't like it very much... Any other thoughts? Anybody regret getting this set?
