Was fortunate to recently acquire the Fresh Sound 2 LP on 1 CD release.

I hope it's all going well, and that you're feeling better. Can't wait for the release; I emailed my info to you.

Release date June 26: One of the largest and most productive families is the Weiss family. Numerous outstanding hot jazz musicians are descended from them, perhaps the most famous being guitarist Traubeli Weiss, who died in 2012. David and his cousin Danino Weiss also learned from him, their uncle, and yet, like many Sinti musicians of their generation, i.e. the now 20 to 30-year-olds, they broke new ground. If only because they did not choose guitar or violin, the classical lead instruments of Gipsy Swing, but David chose the accordion and Danino the piano. On these instruments they grew up with a wider range of jazz right from the start. So, it is no coincidence that their new, second album is called The New Gipsy Sound. Now, on The New Gipsy Sound it's mainly back to France. Joseph Cosma's Clair De Lune is swirled around with melancholic accordion and piano lines just as idiosyncratically as Charles Aznavour's J'aime Paris au mois de Mai, here accelerated in a hard-hot swing. Michel Legrand's Watch What Happens breathes the flair of great Parisian jazz galas of the fifties, and once there is also a side trip to the old Hot Club, with Django Reinhardt's Douce Ambience - although the classic comes along in a dewy fresh, modern swing version. In addition, there are exquisite trouvailles such as Hildegard Knef's anthem Für mich solls rote Rosen regnen right at the beginning and the languishing Wonderful You by the now unfortunately almost forgotten Easy Listening King Peter Nero. And of course, there are also compositions of the two band leaders, such as the dynamic Gipsy Keys, whose harmonies almost remind of Coltrane's Giant Steps, or Sourire, which is enriched with Latin rhythms.

Release date May 1: When Dizzy Gillespie put his hat in the ring for President of the United States in 1964, he also oered to be the first African-American astronaut, just in case they couldn't find anyone else. In making Dizzy Atmosphere, Dave Douglas's tribute to the great trumpeter, composer and humanist, Douglas said he wanted to explore Dizzy's experimental and wide open mind as well as the influence of his music. This album shines a light on the whole legacy of Gillespie, one of America's finest artists. The original music Douglas wrote swings and shimmers with a grace reminiscent of the great man. Dizzy Atmosphere also contains several imaginative arrangements of Gillespie compositions, including reinterpretations of two key Gillespie tunes 'Manteca' and 'Pickin' the Cabbage.' Douglas's band is also remarkable, featuring fellow trumpeter Dave Adewumi, recent winner of the Carmine Caruso Competition, along with pianist Fabian Almazan, guitarist Matt Stevens, bassist Carmen Rothwell, and drummer Joey Baron. Like his previous explorations of the influential music of Mary Lou Williams, Wayne Shorter, and Booker Little, this album is sure to inspire listeners to hear the music of Dizzy Gillespie in new and interesting ways.

Release date May 15: Recorded in May 2015 in San Diego, CA, this is one of the last recording of the extraordinary clarinet player Perry Robinson, a musician that since the 60s has been considered a staple of the NY avant-garde scene. Not only he also had more traditional collaboration with musicians like the Brubeck's, Tony Scott and many other. Hi was one of the columns of the Charlie Haden Liberation Orchestra, a sideman with Don Cherry, Gato Barbieri, John Fisher. In this CD in duo with percussionist, electronic experiments artist Andrea Centazzo once again he cross the genres from extremely inventive sound scapes to hunting melodies all improvised in 2 days session.

Release date May 29: Debut Whirlwind Recordings release from acclaimed British saxophonist and long-time NY-resident Will Vinson. '441' refers to the five pianists (88 keys) plus one saxophone present on this hugely impressive recording. Featuring a truly stellar cast in pianists Tigran Hamasyan, Fred Hersch, Gerald Clayton, Sullivan Fortner and Gonzalo Rubalcaba, bassists Larry Grenadier, Matt Brewer, Rick Rosato and Matt Penman, plus drummers Billy Hart, Eric Harland, Clarence Penn, Jochen Rueckert and Obed Calvaire. Originally from London, alto saxophonist/composer Will Vinson moved to New York City in 1999 and has remained there ever since. Since his arrival, he has appeared and/or recorded with Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Ari Hoenig, Marcus Gilmore, Chris Potter, Kurt Elling, Lage Lund, Aaron Parks, and many others

Release date July 10: Product Description Originally released in 1988, this extremely rare recording returns to the market for the first time in over 10 years. The debut album from one of Canada's most important bassists, Neil Swainson who has played with George Shearing, Diana Krall and countless others. Features tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson & trumpeter Woody Shaw and includes a previously unreleased track. Includes previously unreleased track featuring Woody Shaw. Woody Shaw's last ever studio recording. Features new liner notes by Phil Dwyer, interviews and rare photographs! Review Bassist Neil Swainson is known more as an accompanist (most notably with George Shearing) than as a bandleader, and this was his first opportunity to head his own recording date. Swainson was able to secure the services of both trumpeter Woody Shaw (on his final studio session just two years before his death) and tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, in addition to a couple of Toronto-based musicians: pianist Gary Williamson and drummer Jerry Fuller. Swainson, who has long had impressive technique and a beautiful tone, performs five of his originals, plus Henderson's ''Homestretch.'' Overall, this is an underrated, high-quality advanced hard bop date worth exploring. Scott Yanow --AllMusic Review

It's not on this box: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legendary_Prestige_Quintet_Sessions It appears on disc 12 of this: https://www.amazon.com/Miles-Davis-Recordings-1948-1957-Featuring/dp/B005HPQ7KK

Also the Blackhawk box with Mobley.

I'm now listening to, and enjoying, the Jan Garbarek & Hilliard Ensemble release "Remember me, my dear." But look at the ECM New Series logo in the upper right corner. The last letter of the word Series is some sort of stylized G or 6. SERIE6? SERIEG? This is repeated on the booklet cover. What does this mean?

I think Bill Evans was the problem that evening.

Then it's not really a valid offer. Consider the logic: once you buy the OTC box (which is your first order), you can never again use the offer. Another semi-sleazy thing: there's free shipping on orders over $75. OTC happens to cost $69.95.

The one time I saw Lee, he was with Attila Zoller and Don Friedman at the New School. Magic.

There's a pop-up when you first access the site. You must give them your email address to get the discount code.

RIP. He was his authentic voice. A lot of jazz history just died.

Thanks for the alert! I tried ordering, but the 15% was not coming off the order. I've emailed the site (which seems to be Sony's Popmarket behind the scenes) and am awaiting a response.

I am loving the new Mosaic box. Gives me a new appreciation of Hank's craft. This may turn out to be one of my favorite Mosaics.
