So I take it that's the Mosaic Single this thread is about, not the 2004 set. Thanks for clearing that up.

2004 Woody Herman Columbia Mosaic thread

Are you referring to the Herman Columbia set on Mosaic MD7-223 in the title of this thread? That's not a new set, it was released in the summer of 2004.

Sure. Joe Wilder bio

Don't know about that, I've never heard it. I did listen to Jimmy Scott's earlier Savoy recordings, and his work is not really my cup of tea.

This is it. It was another Rhino Handmade that is most likely long out of print now. It is a beautiful album, one of Scott's best (IMO). Already mentioned in post #24.

Is this the one you had in mind: Bill Barron - Modern Windows Suite - Savoy

Jimmy Scott Handmade (OOP), also listed here: Rhino Handmade catalog (see also my post #19 above)

Mosaic's Scott Wenzel just told me they hope to release the Chu Berry set in about two weeks.

Rhino Handmade did ship the Mayfield to Europe, I got it directly from them.

Rhino Handmade catalog

I agree. He didn't make many recordings as a leader, and those two are the best

Should I thank you for that? Exactly. And by the way, I had nothing to do with it. Your (eeegor's) insinuation is totally out of order.

This is one of three later-period Farmer gems with Clifford Jordan, the other ones being Something to Live For, a tribute to Billy Strayhorn, and Ph.D., which features Kenny Burrell. Blame It on My Youth, with Jordan, James Williams (piano), Rufus Reid (bass) and Victor Lewis (drums), is the masterpiece of the three in my opinion. Get them while you can, before they are deleted by Concord. It all depends how you define "later-period". I have a number of other CDs by Art Farmer with Clifford Jordan that should also be mentioned. The three Contemporary CDs I was referring to were recorded in the late 1980s, hence "later-period", as opposed to his 1950s-1960s work.

So you're now "no longer a registered user"

North, South, East... Wess was reissued on CD. As far as I know the Phil Urso and Marzette Watts were not.

Does it contain the 2 extra tracks? They are really fine. Which extra tracks? The Japanese remaster TOCJ 6560 and all other CD reissues of Smithville that I know of have only 5 tracks. "Tunesmith" and "Au Privave" . First Issued on "The Other Side of the 1500 Series " ( Japan) . Thanks.
