There's a number missing. Jackie McLean, Monk Black Lion/Vogue, Buck Clayton for starters. Having said that, there's the Atlantic Jazz LP version. Not too often you see that. All I can say is...... drool

Thanks for the heads up - I'm on an economy drive ! ( ). Looks like the proverbial Motherlode in this listing..

Jaro original? What is the pressing quality like on this label?

Love both of these Gordon Beck LPs - the 'Gyroscope' took some tracking down, to put it mildly ! It is nearish-to-mint but needed some playing in before the sonics came to life. 'Experiments with Pops' is the one that sounds particularly astonishing on the vinyl though. Worth snapping up if seen ( ).

Yes Patricia, if it sounds good it is good, that's my mantra.. Currently spinning: Gordon Beck Trio 'Gyroscope' (Morgan). With Jeff Clyne and Tony Oxley Jazz Crusaders 'Uh Huh (King Japanese Pacific Jazz pressing)

Late in the day but hope your day was a good one !

A late one but hope your day was great !

Does she have a sister?

Yes, thanks for the info John. You are a lucky man to have it !

Was it just issued on CD, John, or was there also a limited vinyl release of this? Never seen it - would love to find a copy.

My pre-order set is apparently winging its way across the pond. It's serial #033

JJ Johnson LP 2

I can remember the original TV broadcast (around 1977ish?)

A scan of Popsike shows that the range is $100 to $200, with about $120 the average. The $99 for a set in this condition is a very nice deal. I think my set cost about $120-130. Needless to say, the music is superb. Maybe the 'Wolffometer' can throw further light on the price range?

I was afraid it might be.. (maybe next month's Mosaic allowance will permit )

Those 2 Onyx LPs smoke big time !

Looks like some lucky person went for it...

No. 7??

I'm not the seller but spotted this on ebay and it may be of interest to someone. Pretty good price for a buy-it-now. US buyers only, unfortunately. Clifford Brown Mosaic link

Yes, I think it was a mail-order record club that operated through the early to late 60s. Some of their releases were unique to the label (e.g. one of the Tubby Hayes/Paul Gonsalves sessions) whilst others were licensed from US labels. I have the Bill LeSage 'Twice Times Keyboard.' As you say, sound is very acceptable - although the cover art is a bit 'spartan'.

I was just thinking of rockin' that myself. ← Very nice session. Just love those Marte Roling sleeves too !

Kenny Wheeler 'Song For Someone' (Incus) Terry Smith 'Fallout' (Philips)

This one is next on my list too (and has been since last year.. )

Four Freshmen set, disk 3. This set has exceeded all expectations so far, gets my award for 'most under-rated Mosaic', I think. Full of fine harmonies and some wonderful West Coast backing groups (liberal doses of Milt Bernhart trombone, for example). Another winner ! .... and Malcolm Addey re-mastering.

Laurie Johnson 'Synthesis' (Columbia Lansdowne stereo). Third-stream-ish session with Tubby Hayes and Joe Harriott. New York Art Quartet 'Mohawk' (UK Fontana). With John Tchicai Eric Dolphy 'Last Date' (UK Fontana mono)
