Actually that Reese Markevich LP has been around on the reissue market for some time. Fresh Sound did a facsimile reissue LP in the late 80s. No idea if they ever followed up with a CD when they started re-reissuing their vinyl catalog on CD (it's not in their curent catalog). I've got a copy of that Fresh Sound facsimile LP somewhere (if I can find it !)

Cheers ! Sounds very Santana-ish. Some nice playing there by Terry Smith. Quite different to the more straight-ahead playing on his 'Fall-Out' LP. Both Dick Morrissey and Terry Smith were on one of McDuff's Blue Note albums (I forget which one).

This thread will have me searching in charity shops up and down the land for three green KPM LPs..

Wow - great Mosaic blowout !

Late best wishes ! :party:

Hard to beat Dick Morrrisey on the live 'Storm Warning' LP on Mercury. One of the very best British Jazz releases, that one. That '77' label LP is damn elusive though, so great that Jazzhus put it out.

Welcome !

Hadn't noticed he was sir-ed, too ... guess they're running out of classical conductors Or bankers..

I have to say, I found 'The Real Thing' a bit underwhelming, compared to Shaw's Muse issues of around the same period. Will give it another listen.

Never even realised they did some of those KPM LPs !

Or Sir Bradley..

Unbelievable is the word. I got many of the Prestige boxes via that route - and some incredibly cheap Euro-Mosaics too. Never to be repeated ! The £ was worth something back then too.

How about throwing in some of those Xanadus into the mix? The Sams (Most and Noto), 'Xanadu at Montreux Vols 1 to 4' etc The latter would have made a nice Select.. An Eris Kloss/Pat Martino box would be nice too.

A Kenny Barron Muse set might be quite nice. A Cedar Walton set would be really great though ! If there's anyone who deserves the Mosaic treatment it's Cedar.

£16.99 at sainsbury.com is indeed "very reasonable" and very tempting indeed Looks like it's a Woody Shaw blow-out coming up over the next few weeks. Thanks for that ! I'll order one with the bread and milk.. Nectar points too (32)

I know what you mean but - don't knock it. he put out some good stuff which otherwise wouldn't have seen the light of day I suspect.

Great news - well done.

and I'd buy it just to have another booklet full of Woody Shaw bio, stories and photos too ! But there again, he is one of my favourite artists..

Plus that all that damn house buying rubbish, escape to whatever country, cameras next to police raiding chav estates/stopping speeders, Miss Marple/Poirot shows, Countdown/variants thereof and sex infection clinic documentaries.

Those can sound suprisingly good !

What a nice suprise to start the day with ! This one will go to the top of my Mosaic list, even though I've got most of the Muse material on CD or LP (much of it on those 33 Jazz reissues). IMO the Muse material by Woody is really strong - especially the material around 74-77. Like all of the best Mosaics, this box will have a major story to tell..
