Listening to disk 3 of The Complete Roulette Live Recordings of Count Basie and His Orchestra. SWINGIN' Sadly, I don't think there will be another band like that. Bourbon in hand, and the new Armstrong set arriving tomorrow!

Last night Mosaic charged my card, and I just got a Shipping Notification from Mosaic!!! Shipping in the next day or two. They got this out quickly! I too was expecting this a bit later in June. Can't wait!! I'll post impressions when I receive it. Hopefully this weekend.

I'd have to say, the Complete Roulette Studio Recordings of Count Basie.

AWESOME!!! Probably no word on the release date already. But hopefully sometime in 2013. I will certainly be ordering this!

That would be AWESOME!!!!

Those are great suggestions! I would love another Jacquet or Stitt set.

If anyone gets this let me know if the "No Count Sarah" session is in better sound quality than the previous digital versions. I am interested. Thanks!

I have updated the list, some sets have sold. Updated pricing. Thanks!

I've added some updates!!! Check the list out. They will be eBay bound soon if I don't get any bites. HRS box is on hold right now.

Thanks for the response, I am moving in a month and may need some funds, and will PM you if I decide to sell. I am not ready to sell, but I may be as time goes by. The set is very well mastered (much like the Basie Roulette Studio). Best luck in your search. Every now and then, a set goes up on Amazon for a more reasonable price.

How much would you pay for this set?

Listening to disk 2 of the Complete Blue Note Hank Mobley Fifties Sessions. This is a great box set. I cannot believe this hasn't sold out yet! Hank sounded great in the mid-late 50s.

The Complete Roulette Studio Recordings of Count Basie and His Orchestra (Disk VI, "Blue on Blue") DANG!!!!!

I preordered yesterday---but I neglected to listen to the sounds samples!!! Not sure what I was thinking?!? Going to the site now, can't wait to hear the samples.

Felser, what you said above are my thoughts exactly as well. skeith, you are welcome!!!

Just listened to disk 1 (Town Hall Concert part 1) and the sound is GREAT! You can hear the hall, all of the instruments, and yes the bass sounds amazing. The piano is great as well!!!!!!!!!! The music is very involving and swinging. GREAT BAND.

Either the 1957-1962 Count Basie Orchestra or the 1956-1959 Duke Ellington Orchestra. Reason being, great sidemen, great charts during this period. And also, the recording quality was excellent (Mosaic Roulette for Basie, Columbia for Duke). I really wish I could have heard these bands live, but I trust the recordings represented them well. The Woody Herman band of '62-'65 was very good as well.

Any impressions yet? Mine will be arriving today! I can't wait! I'll post first impressions either tonight or tomorrow. I know the music is going to be great, but am interested in the remastering (I am sure Malcolm Addey did a fine job).

I bought the disk off of Amazon. Great band (LA studio players including Pete Christlieb, Gene Cipriano and Gary Foster) killin' rhythm section. And Smulyan sounds great. I've listened to it several times.

When was it announced? I admit, I haven't followed the Mosaic site as closely as some. I mean I've gotten the vast majority of their releases through the years, but failed to see this release---until I checked this forum.

It seems like this one was out of the blue.

Got my notice this afternoon! Should be here early next week! I can't wait!!!
