Forgive me if I mentioned this before please, but Big Star's "much loved" Holocaust is the same music as Yoko Ono's Mrs. Lennon:

I only know him from a couple of Don Cherry records, but he definitely got my attention.

I've had this for quite a few years but just now finding my way to disc 4.

I think I'm just feeling cocky about my eyesight since I had cataract surgery in 2020 and could suddenly read again. It seems likely that I'll be using Kindle sooner rather than later.

The virtues of a Kindle reading device were enumerated to me recently, and it did sound functional-but I remain affiliated with print.

There is some really excellent Don Preston on the versions of King Kong but still...

Bach Concerto for Two Violins in D Minor followed by Hank Mobley then Sidney Bechet and finally Emmylou Harris-this is how I pictured retirement.

I've had this set since it came out and have utterly failed to enjoy it over the years. A bit of judicious editing (the vocals and Satin Doll-which I cannot seem to like) and it's pretty listenable. I've played this one so infrequently the top is still 100% affixed to the rest of the box-a rarity for Mosaics of this vintage in my collection.

A classic!

Even better!

Thanks for posting this.

It's been a while for this one...

Ethan Iverson mentioned the second of these in passing recently. I realized that I inevitably reach for the Fats Navarro related Tadd Dameron, but now these are getting some play.

This is a go-to for me: I love those Duke Pearson arrangements with Lee.

Tiny Parham was a Chicago based bandleader, composer, and arranger. If I remember correctly he arranged some music for a Jelly Roll Morton recording date-but I could have this backwards. I really like the New Orleans born Punch Miller on trumpet on about half of these sides. The Timeless release is excellent front to back.

I must read this one.

There is a version of Born on the Bayou by Creedence with Booker T and the MG's on the extra tack laden version of Cosmo's Factory.

My old buddy Bob Palmer gave me a cassette tape with this on it nearly forty years ago-it continues to work for me.

Low Down has also been made into a film.
