Pre ordered the set. I have one Decca 78 from this set and if fills the gaps in and between the previous sets.

Concentrating on the period covered by these 3 boxes (1943-1956): The V-discs most of them are on HEP 34/35 The V-disc years vol's 1 & 2 A 1946 Woodchoppers session (4 tunes) for a The Pioneer Musical Instrument Company in Chicago. Flip Philips demonstrating the sweetwind. They have never been issued commercialy. I could not find information on the sweetwind. 21 May 1954 4 tunes for Columbia available on a Poll Winners CD 'The 3 herds' 25 Columbia sides from 1947 with Woody as featured singer with the Four Chips or orchestral acc. Not his own band. From December 1946 until October 1947 it seems Woody was between Herds.

To the best of my knowlege James P. Johnson never recorded 'Charleston'

Not on the upcoming soon page but on the recent releases page the complete Woody Herman Decca, Mars, MGM 1943-1954 sessions. 7 CD's 2000 copies. This fills the gaps between the Columbia and Capitol sets. Classics got to early 1941. Whith the 6 Classics and 2 earlier Mosaic sets there remains the 1941-1942 period not covered on CD. http://www.mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=267-MD-CD

The Kirk lp set is gone.

The Roland Kirk LP set is on last change. The Ruby Braff single is running low. This is the last Mosaic Single.

The Goodman set is gone

I checked the plosin Miles Davis site. Near the bottom of the page devoted to this session there is a breakdown of wich music is used at what point in the movie. It states 74:00-79:05 Clarke High hat+brushes (not issued?). I don’t have the movie so I can’t check but I remember vaguely there is a scène with drums only. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a track without Miles or the other musicians.

Indeed don’t hesitate. Chances of this being reissued are minimal.

They did. JPJ went on last chance but got a repressing because of the responce. I’m glad I got it.

The Chick Webb/Ella Fitzgerald, Eddie Condon/Bud Freeman, Duke Ellington big band and James P. Johnson sets are now last chance. Benny Goodman is now running low. Funny the Condon/Freeman and James P. Johnson sets are also on the recent releases page.

Onzy Matthews.

Hank Mobley and Charlie Parker are last chance. James P. Johnson is now running low.

Thanks for storting this out.

Great news but I downloaded the first 3 volumes. A pitty the Ellington material is not included. But I’m not complaining about more Lester.

James P. Johnson yesterday discs I & II now disc III.

Got a mail yesterday giving the expected release date Januari 2018.

For me this set will mean that I have most of it in one package in the best possible sound and with a Mosaic booklet. I allready have most of this music on Clasics/Neatwork and Masters of Jazz. The other day I have been listening to a number of the Piano solo’s and I was more impressed than I remembered. So this set is a defintive yes for me.

The Slide Hampton single Drum suite is now last chance. When this one is gone Ruby Braff Hi Fi salute to Bunny is the last Single.

This set is up for pre order. Release date December.

The Pathé tracks are included in the French CBS 2lp sets and therefor I asume they are owned by Sony. They are part of the 97. Last year at the Ellington conference in New York he gave a presentation with rare Ellington moves and clips. So in 2016 he was still around.

The Hank Mobley and Clifford Jordan sets joined the running low list.

Duke Ellington and Teresa Brewer

Got a notice the JPJ will be shipped shortly.

Track 7 Sweet Sue made me think of John Kirby sextet like music. But he didn't use xylophoon in his band. It took me some searching to find Kenny Clarke's Kvintett Stockholm 1938. Great fun find.I got it on a Edgar Hayes Classics CD. Hadn't played it for ages. Realy liked track 8.
