thanks... and I think the CD set is different....

so JS... should I assume that you will NOT buy the set?

should I assume that Rich Versus Roach will NOT be on this set? Since it's still in print and its on Mercury?

can I get the George Shearing Mosiac set discography posted (cd version)???? thanks

thanks for that... but here's a more specific question.... Is there any Buddy Rich small group stuff (still in print on CD) that's out there tthat WON'T be in the Mosaic set??? (I'd like to avoid buying doubles if I do like the single cd.....) You can get a sample: Buy one of these: Blues Caravan Buddy and Sweets Both are easily obtained, and I'm pretty sure both will be in the set. If you like them, then buy the set. If not, then at least you haven't spent a ton of money. Personally, I like both quite a bit, at least, the parts where Buddy's not soloing. ←

Don Pullen Select - Disc 2... still Don't know why it took me so long to buy this???

Don Pullen Select - Disc 1....

Good man!!!!!!!11

Wow... Js... You go.. taking names and kicking behind!!!! Phew!!! One of the interesting things is that I haven't heard this much disagreement about a musician since a Wynton rant.... This has got me even more intrigued.... Lawd help us when we find out who's doing the remastering on this... Talk about disagreement.... But I am intrigued.... I wish I could get a taste or sample of this before deciding to buy....

why do you say it's an odd choice?

ignoring that ignorant last comment... Do you think the "Rich vs. Roach" album will be on the set? I assume it's almost always been in print???

WOW... I feel honored...

Don't have anything by him. He wasn't really on my radar screen (I knew who he was) BUT.... the co-stars listed in the Mosaic set is awesome... "....performances that paired him with 'Sweets'Edison, Benny Carter, George Auld (ts), Thad Jones, Joe Newman, Ben Webster, Frank Wess, Oscar Peterson, Sonny Criss, Jimmy Rowles, Barney Kessel, Frank Rosolino, Bob Cooper. Added to this is his live Miami album on Verve with Flip Phillips...." I'm intrigued.... So what's the scoop you wise men.... (Do we have any active women on this board?)...? Who's getting it? Who's not? Why? thanks

Ewwww..... I'm not exactly sure why, but that picture kind of turns me on. I love cooking almost as much as I love jazz. ←

I'm with you on that one... Got my eyes on the Oliver Nelson, McCoy, Tony W., Mulligan.. and MAYBE even the Rich... Anyway I spend next year's tax refund (now - without telling my wife)?

website tunes sound fantastic... I'm juiced to get this stuff (and I didn't get 3,000 hits or 500 homers...

Just curious.... Do you NOT like OP in general or just this session? Oscar Peterson's unnecessary busy playing spoiled that album for me. ←

I admire your resolve.... I'm too weak... bought mine a few months ago... (and don't regret it though) there are a few of the individual CD's are available... Anita Sings the Most... A MUST-HAVE!!!!!!!!!

Fab!!!!!!!!!! It is a great set..... ← Oh it's wonderful. Of course I knew Elvin from his work with 'Trane but the sheer variety of the music here made listening to the whole box in one day feel like nothing. (Listening at work allows one to listen to entire Mosaics in a day) Especialy love the sax trio stuff and the concert on the last 2 discs. ←

and your thoughts????

i might have to develop 50 aliases to rig the voting for Anita... After all I go to both the Chicago AND Florida school of voting.....

now this is a new one (at least to my eyes!)... If you're gonna sell a partial set, at leat SAY that,,,, talk about misleading!!!!!!!!!!!! And it ain't even OOP!!!!!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/Blue-Note-HANK-MOBLEY-...1QQcmdZViewItem

I have both and I think I'm the only person JJ didn't work for... So Anita!!!!

yes.. .I was talking about the regular reissues... that's extremely helpful... thanks...

you and me both.. although I cop... I only got the Anita about 2 months ago.. but it is NICE NOT to have to panic... (and think about which bill is getting paid late this month... since I HAVE to get this set...
