In May when I get some extra money the Ella/Chick Webb and the Condon/Freeman set. And for autumn I plan James P. Johnson and the coming Teddy Wilson set.

Some of the solo piano recordings and altenate takes

I've been looking into the 'Teddy Wilson School For Pianists' label. According to 'The New Grove Dictionary Of Jazz' it recorded in 1938-1939 and issued 5 78's with scores and analytical texts. I don't think they are owned by Sony but by Universal. The matrix numbers fit in with the ARC Brunswick numbers but they have a P prefix instead of B. Maybe P stands for 'private' or 'personal'. According to the TomLord online disco Merrit 23 included 14 of the 18 tracks. Mosaic MR23-123 The complete Commodore Recordings vol. 1 includes them all. As does the Classics/Neatwork Cd's. Commodore is part of Universal. Unless Mosaic was able to strike a deal with Universal for these recordings they are not part of the coming Mosaic set.

Yes. Masters of Jazz has 2 CD's with small group recordings and 3 CD's 'Teddy and the girls'. Plus the piano solo's and the 39/40 bigband.

I made a quick count: 155 tracks. My guess is 7 CD's. If Universal co operates and the 'Teddy Wilson School For Pianists' recordings (18 tracks) are included there would be an 8th disc.

Great news. A must have for me. Years ago I suggested this set to Scott. Guess I was not the only one.

Jazz Oracle just announced West Coast Jazz. It includes the Kid Ory sides, Harvey Brooks' Quality Four (with alt takes), Reb Spikes, Dick Lucke, Freddie Carter, Lake Arrowhead Orchestra and a unknown band. Frog announced Frog Spawn The Fourth Batch no track listing yet.

Duke Ellington Complete RCA Victor recordings 24 CD set Duke Ellington Columbia Studio Albums 1951-1958 Duke Ellington Columbia Studio Albums 1959-1961 Charles Mingus Passions of A man Miles Davis Prestige set Miles Davis/Gil Evans Columbia CD Set (Don't know if this counts it was also a Mosaic LP set) Miles Davis John Coltrane Columbia Set Louis Armstrong Hot Five/Hot Seven JSP set Bix Beiderbecke Bix Restored vol. 1-vol. 5 Charlie Christian Genius of Electric Guitar Clifford Brown Brownie Complete EmArCy recordings Had it been organised differently: Bird the complete Charlie Parker on Verve. All those incomplete takes should have been on a seperate disk. And it isn't complete anymore. The same goes for the false starts, incomplete takes and studio chatter on the Bilie Holiday and Lester Young verve sets.

The Jimmie Lunceford complete Decca set, The Classic Earl Hines Sessions 1928-1945, The Rosemay Clooney CBS radio recordings and the Stan Getz Norgran Studio sessions (LP set) are now running low. The Monk/Coltrane LP has sold out.

In 1963 Duke played at Grona Lund Tuesday June 4th till Sunday June 9th. Performances were recorded every day. Two shows on both Saturday and Sunday. Except for the 2nd concert on Saterday (called a Dance date in the New Desor) the playlists are almost the same: Take the A train (theme), Afro Bossa, Perdido, Medely, Take the A train (theme). June 4th no end theme recorded. June 6th Concert ends with Satin doll. The dance date is on the Storyville 2CD set issued in 2014. For a new CD recorded at Grona Lund Storyville chose the June 6th concert. Sound samples are up now on the Storyville site

No this won't be part of it.

Why not try the booklet and the box too from Mosaic? Can't hurt to ask.

This set is at various prices avaiable second hand on Amazon. Beware it listed several times at idiotic prices.

There is a update on the Jazz museum website just below the track listing http://jazzmuseuminharlem.org/savory/. Basicly there was a misstaken in the editing.

Would love a Mosaic Lunceford Columbia set to complement the Decca set.

For me it will fill a number of gaps. Especialy Fats Navarro and Bud Powell alt. Takes. Hopefully this set will sell well so there will a swing groups set as Well.

Thanks for posting this. I just love Anita O'Day

That was the varoius artists lp 'Kings of swing' Stil play Artie Shaw 'Night and Day'

The Quincy Jones set is now oop.

Thank for pointing this out. I didn't realise this. I was satisfied when burning a wav on a CD it played on the CD player.

Off course other formats than wav can be burned on a cd. But my point was that converting to wav en than burn it on a cd makes it posible to play it on a standard cd player.

WAV files can be burned to a CD and played on a CD-player.

The Charles Tolliver big band select is now sold out.

Just listend to Body and soul on the NY times site. Almost 6 minuten of brilliant Hawkins. The album no. 1 can be pre ordered at I-tunes. Body and soul seems to be ready for download at 99 cents. The booklet is only available if you buy the whole album.

Yes and now CD's are on last chance. ?
