    As "Bloom County" noted after Prince's death, it's been a rough year for the 80s. I liked the tunes and his brash attitude toward life. gregmo

    Just got my copy of 22. Looking forward to listening to it! gregmo

    Far better just to have them on cd in the first place. Harumph, harumph. gregmo

    Interesting article--thanks for posting it. I think the author could be a bit clearer that the Parker Savoy sides are not in this set. Always nice, though, for a major publication to give Mosaic a boost! gregmo

    The sound does vary from take to take, but I think that's a function of the source. It generally sounds quite fine to me--much like the Dial, which I also liked. gregmo

    New Savoy box, disc III. Lots of nice Navarro. gregmo

    Thanks for the quick reply Jim. The things I learn on this forum! gregmo

    Whoa. Now THAT'S one I've never heard of before! Do you actually have it? How IS it? "Enquiring" minds want to know! gregmo

    Thanks Lon! gregmo

    I think this one definitely belongs on the list. The oddest album Basie ever made.

    I don't find it. Could you post a link? gregmo

    I have most of this material, so I don't know if it will be worth it for me. gregmo

    Enjoying disc 2--some fine Rosolino. Chris Connor too.

    The Hollywood All-Stars session with Art Pepper was very fine. gregmo

    You guys are just not sufficiently obsessive-compulsive. Not only do I have my collection arranged alphabetically by artist, I even have it arranged chronologically *within* each artist's sets. Yes, I do need counseling. No, I'm not going to get it. I can't afford it. I keep buying these damned Mosaic sets........... gregmo

    I might prefer an Atlantic box. Collectors Choice has issued some of that material. Has all of it been available on cd? gregmo

    It's a nice set, very well produced. That said, I'd rate it as something primarily for Sinatra completists, which I am. gregmo

    Getting ready for the Mosaic Savoy set!

    Got my shipping notice as well. Soon I will face one of those really important questions. Do I shelve it under "S" for Savoy or "B" for Bebop? It is one of those profound issues that must give us pause...... gregmo

    I always thought Clark Terry was underutilized. Certainly, he had a couple of features, and he recorded outside the confines of the band, but I don't think Duke and Billy ever quite figured out how to write for him. gregmo

    All this reminds me of the title of Phil Collins's new autobiography: "Not Dead Yet." I thought that was clever. gregmo

    He's not exactly explicit in this video. Assuming he *is* retiring, I wish him well. I was privileged to hear him on his last West Coast tour a few years ago. gregmo
