Me too. This was sudden, though, wasn't it?! No pre-order pleas, no upcoming. Just popped up! Thanks to Ghost for cluing us in! gregmo

I have an Edison Blue Amberol Cylinder of the Edison Concert Band, but that's just a decoration. My earliest listenable music is the ODJB on LP and cd. gregmo

I assume that until the lockdown ends, there will be no progress on much of anything. gregmo

Disc 3, with Clifford Brown

Tough one. I go back to the Teagarden Roulette a lot (and the Basie Roulettes too). Still like the Herman Philips Select, but really, I like all of 'em. gregmo

I loved him in that one too. Recently did some nice guest shots on The Blacklist. RIP. gregmo

Disc 1 of the complete set

Such sad news. By all accounts a very gentle man, and what a marvelously individual style he had! RIP gregmo

Frank Rosolino recorded with Ed Bickert in Toronto in the early/mid 70s, but I'm not sure they ever did a duet. Used bass and drums. Still some very nice music. gregmo

Disc 4:

Disc One. Some really fine Wallace Roney on this great set.

I think Universal owns the Capitol stuff, doesn't it? I didn't think it was part Sony's holdings, but Lord knows, I can't always keep track of who owns what! If so, a 7-8-cd set would certainly be within Mosaic's usual limits. Many of the Riverside albums have been issued on cut-rate labels like Enlightenment. gregmo

Me too!!! gregmo

How many cds would it take to do a complete Cannonball Capitol album? Always seemed to me like that kind of Mosaic set would actually sell. gregmo

Needed a Basie fix and turned to one of my favorites:

The LP in question was "Little Band Big Jazz," correct? Cool story Chuck! gregmo

I like Peterson's Live at the Blue Note recordings on the label--some of his last really good ones before the stroke. (He also recorded for the label after it.) gregmo

No matter where one stands on them, the family he sired, taught, and encouraged has had a formidable impact on America's greatest art form. And he was a fine pianist. RIP. gregmo

Evans in Third Stream:

I was just listening to an intro to a set from Tubby Hayes "Couriers of Jazz," and Ronnie Scott mentioned they were going to play a tune from THIS album!! Scott apparently did pretty good stand-up back in the day! (At least I *assume* it was Scott talking!) gregmo

Interesting. I never bought that box since I had all the individual albums on cd. gregmo

Enjoyed the Fontanas so much I decided to get this one. Listening to disc 1 now. It does not disappoint!

I don't see it on "The Complete Ellington Indigos" on Jazz Beat, though I guess that's not considered a "legitimate" release since it's not Sony? The only Columbia I find is the old 90s cd, and it's not on that either. Maybe there's a recent Sony release I haven't seen! Don't know those 56/62 comps. gregmo
