  9. Ray Abrams played in Dizzy Gillespie's big band in the 40's. By 1959, assuming it's him, his style had moved closer to R&B.
  10. The Chess Paul Gayten CD (Chess King of New Orleans) credits "possibly Ray Abrams" as the tenor on "The Hunch". The track was cut in New York, btw, even though it was issued on the Detroit-based Anna label (which was distributed by Chess).

  20. Goldmine is wrong? Say it isn't so!. I bought "Tauhid" as a new release, and it is on the orange label. Btw, "Karma" was the first record I saw with the new black label w/ red border. Not saying it was the very first, but it was among the first.

    Beautiful! Thank you so much.
  25. I bought the box last year, having owned the 1960's 3-LP set since it came out. Positives: The sound is terrific, expertly mastered by Mark Wilder. I'm not always happy with Mosaic's mastering, but this one is superb. I was already familiar with most of the music, and I can highly recommend this set for the many classics it contains, and the lineup of great players - Bill Harris, Sonny Berman, Flip Phillips, Red Norvo, Dave Tough, Stan Getz, Mary Ann McCall, et al. Negatives: I wanted everything by this band, especially the material that had been left off of the LP set. Unfortunately, most of the tracks that were new to me were forgettable vocals by Herman. The compilers of the LP set had made their selections wisely. The new set does contain a number of interesting alternates, however. I find Loren Schoenberg's micro-detailed liner notes really superfluous. I wonder if Loren was being paid by the word.
