It is! Live in Paris at St. Germain. Check out the full recordings of that band at that club. Fire!

Hazel Scott is on your side:

There ya' go.

Ok then. Good luck!

Liking it. Liking it just fine, in fact. If we're done with true innovation, this kind of assertive evolved identity music will do just fine as one of the viable options. Produced by Walter Smith III, facilitated by Don Was and crew. Blue Note is having a moment!

So much of the discussion was (and apparently still is) about the Lewis/Jackson relationship, but...Percy Heath and Connie Kay were where the glue was. Those other two guys could yin/yang their asses off, but it only worked because that glue was always stickying.

Turn turn turn.

People who are looking for something that is intentionally not going to be there are sure to not find it!!!🎄🎄🎄🔂🔂🔂

I've really come to appreciate Lewis' comping. He's always playing riffs and other "big band" type devices that create things that Heath and Kay can bounce off and around in some pretty funky ways.

It's the composer, that's how a composer turns a small group into an organized ensemble. I've never disliked him or the MJ@, but I really think that he last few years of the original run saw the band really finding another level.Starting with Blues at Carnegie Hall all the way through Blues on Bach. From 1966-1973. Things seemed to loosen up, breathe more, and Heath/Kay found some funk. It's by far my most consistently favorite MJQ.

That comping...sublime!

I bought the Mosaic and also picked up the later Atlantics, live and studio. Also the two Apple records, and the OJC(?) collection of the Prestige/Pablo records. I'm not an unqualified/uncritical fan, but when I like them, I like them a lot. For that price, hey... But do not miss Space

This one was on the list, one that I had long overlooked: But hey, looks like it's not unknown! http://www.stevekhan.com/59tha.htm

Bob gave me a list of Most Overlooked Herbie Hancock Sideman Dates (or something like that) and it was full of Creed Taylor easylisten-ish sessions that i would have easily overlooked. That list made for some really fun investigating!

Glad I carpe-diemed. But fret not if you get the Mosaic!

There was a DB review. **** Iirc
