Bought the Fresh Sound 2 CD set. Love his arrangements for the Jack Nimitz Orchestra.

The Mosaic edition makes no mention of an edit in this recording.

I'm 63 and I don't feel old. I fact I feel younger than 5 years ago. Not the body but in spirit. My social network expanded with younger people. With whom I have innocent uncomplicated fun.

I'm not saying Anita O'Day started Rock and Roll but she recorded Rock and Roll Blues in 1952.

On the Storyville website is 20 euro's

I quite like his music especially the Bix periode. Favorites: Lonely Melody, Changes, When and most tracks on Bix restored. On CD 9 from track 11 on a string a delightful recordings. And I think Whiteman's recording of Gershwin's Concerto in F is for me the best version I know (not that many).

Charlie Parker on Dial were 6 single LP's on Spotlight for me still have those as well.

My first box was The complete Charlie Parker on Savoy 5 LP set. 60 guilders at the time. I still have it.

Mine arrived today from Belgium.

For the completists The Savory collection has a few recordings with Ellington unknown at the time. And unavailable if they had known. They are from Carnegie Hall. My notes are sketchy. Among the tunes are Happy Go Lucky Local, Improvisation 1, Honeysuckle rose (14:33) and iirc Happy Go Lucky Local, Improvisation 2, Honeysuckle rose (14:35). There were concerts 23th and 24th November 1946.

A Carnegie Hall concert from November 23, 1946. First issued on a Italian lp on the Queen label. The four non V-disc tracks from that concert have never been reissued since.

I love the movie and I have a 78 of the Harry Lime theme by Caras . Don't know if I need more.

Ellington V-disc recording consist of: aircheck, concert, transcription etc. recordings. I like the sunrise is an instrumental version of the take used on the Liberian Suite Lp. For the LP the vocal was dubbed over. Most if not all V-discs were issued on various Classics CD's. Thanks to V-discs we have the never completely recorded Deep South Suite.

The set can now be pre ordered. I all ready did through TYQmusic. Jazzmessengers is also possible for European customers.
