I think there's a OTC box languishing at my local shop.

Bidding for Mosaics always escalates in the closing hours. It's pretty rare for them to go cheap. Even so, I am always a fan of offering a Buy-It-Now price. If you set it up as an auction, it doesn't preclude people from bidding and if someone is intrepid it can be over and done with. That said, I find that the Buy-only auctions are often majorly overpriced. Good luck to the guy selling that Kenton for $350 bucks.

What, no Complete Plugged Nickel? At least I don't have to feel bad about not being able to afford the damn thing anymore, that would've been 75% of my motivation to get it.

Berkshire Record Outlet just got in a shipment of HatArt titles, the most attractive of which is Cecil Taylor's One Too Many Salty Swift and Not Goodbye for $11.98

Nope! I was kinda hoping someone else would! I don't mind $100+ down the line.

Ack, I'm so on the fence about the Johnny Richards! I want it, certainly, but I've spent too much money on OOP Selects in the last couple months as it is.

That would be a delight, but I imagine the licensing would be a nightmare. Then again, who knows. I was very surprised to see them get material leased (owned?) by Hat.

I enjoy them both, the Ware maybe moreso.

Jackie McLean - Hipnosis, the earlier session.

Thanks to board member king ubu!

Sorry, no Richard Davis or Paul Chambers on your poll.

Man, yeah. What a front line this would have made ca. 1957. Just Miles, Gerry, Red, PC and PJJ.

Keeping the theme going ...

Verve Japan. CT side.

My copy is similarly worn. This series of twofers didn't wear well over the years. I don't recall seeing many in better shape than this. The music though!

Fats Waller - Piano Solos 1929-1941 Bluebird 2LP Count Basie Presents...Eddie Davis Trio + Joe Newman Routlette LP Monk - Underground CBS Jazz Masterpieces LP Jimmy Giuffre 3/Mabel Mercer - Travelin' Light/Merely Marvelous Horace Silver - Silver's Blue

Monk w/ Johnny Griffin - "Rhythm-a-Ning" at the Five Spot. The only other Griff/Monk I'd heard up to this point was the Blakey album. This was a revelation.

Exciting. Any word on a release for the upcoming Selects?

Bass On Top is sold.

All discs are in fine shape and have only been played a few times at most. All prices include shipping. PayPal is preferred. PM me if you're interested. Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers - A Night At Birdland, Vol. 1 (RVG) $6 SOLDPaul Chambers - Bass on Top (RVG) $6SOLD John Patton - Along Came John (McMaster) $7 Gerry Mulligan & Chet Baker - Reunion (EMI Manhattan) $6* Paul Bley - Solo In Mondsee (BMG Issue) $4 Louis Armstrong - The Hot Fives, Volume 1 (1988 Columbia) $3 Louis Armstrong - The Hot Fives & Hot Sevens, Volume II (1988 Columbia) $3 (Both Louis for $5) Various - The Jones Boys (Thad, Reginald, Quincy, Jimmy, Jo and Eddie ... Period/OJC LE, sealed, sawcut) $7 *in the interest of full, full disclosure the Mulligan/Baker disc is a Jazz Heritage Society Issue. However, aside from a JHS catalogue number on the spine there is NO difference between this and the normal issue as there sometimes is with the JHS. No photocopy-quality booklet, no JHS-stamped disc-- everything is just as with the EMI pressing.

Well, true. Added!

In a perfect world there would be a box containing Mal 1-4 and Impressions.

Nope and nope. Ron Carter's Where? was, though.

Yeah, seems like a missed opportunity there but I think that would have pushed it into double-disc territory.

Hipnosis was recorded in 1967, so it falls outside the scope of the 1964-66 McLean Mosaic. It appears on the Grachan Moncur III Select, however.
