    I asked Scott about a Mercer set. Not enough material for a set.

    And part of it is Great Times Duke Ellington Billy Strayhorn (OJCCD 108-2). I love this CD but it would have been even better if it had been a 2 CD set with the vocal tracks on CD 2. All recordings are on Duke Ellington Classics 1191 1949-1950, 1217 1950, 1258 1950-1951, 1282 1951 and 1300 Al Hibler 1950-1952. The Alternate take of Moonlight Fiesta is on the Prestige CD.

    Mozart Horn Quintet in E K407. From Mozart 225 CD 49 I just love his horn music.

    I have CD's from London 2008 with Ellington in London 1958 and New York 2016 with Hurricane Broadcasts from 1943-44 from the Timme Rozencrantz archive. Ken Steiner produced a booklet 'Wild Throng Dances Madly in Cellar Club' for the 2008 conference. It is a chronical with press clippings from 1923-1927. It contains a lot of information not in Tuckers book.

    Just listened to disc IV Mel Powell in various combinations. What a delightful music. Part is Mainstream meets Tristano (tracks 9-14). Braff at his best. A truly delightful disc.

    Just started disc one. Ray Bryant wasn't on my radar before. He is now.

    Mine just arrived.

    My often played copy is not perfect. It has hiccups during 'Hittin' the bottle' take. It's not a disaster if the booklet is missing. I have that. But the CD must be perfect. I also looked at Discogs and other websides to no avail. International I use Paypal. Within Europe I can also pay by bank transfer (IBAN)

    The Vanguard set. Disc 6. I was underwhelmed by the first 2 discs. i can't put my finger on it why. Sir Charles Thompson has a good session. Joe Newman session great. Buck Clayton never disappoints me. Neither does Jimmy Rushing. Sound quality is great.
