All the more reason to have Mosaic rethink the alternate take idea. I haven't bought the Goodman set yet because there are so many alt. takes on it that I feel like I'm just wasting my money. I would much prefer, and I'm probably in the minority on this, that the sets, especially the Show one, be filled with master takes, and maybe a couple of interesting alt. takes. I can understand the limit, Mosaic deserves their profit, but if disk number is limited, make each disk count. It may be only of minority interest but apropos the Goodman set - there really is a lot to enjoy - and learn - if one listens to each set of alternate and master takes sequentially. (A remote helps!) Especially in terms of the development of solos and the manner in which the guys take something almost perfect and transforms it into something extraordinary. It is a pity about the Shaw vocal items though - they contain some of the best writing of the period, and Helen Forrest's entry, on a key change, on 'I Didn't Know What Time It Was' is one of the most amazing things I've ever heard.

Ruby's 1958 RCA album of tunes associated with Berigan is very good - the lineup includes Pee Wee Russell. Benny Morton, Walter Page, and Nat Pierce.
