YOWZAH!

enjoying looking at the Hall/Johnson/De Paris/Dickenson Mosaic (CD-version) that just arrived!

know much of the music already, but this does look nice, very nice!

the page with the cd-tracklists is a loose sheet, slightly smaller, put inside the booklet - was that how they presented their early CD-versions, with the booklet being just for the LP-version and thus they had to add an additional page?

That's exactly right about the slip-in page with the CD info; I have several of the early Mosaic CD editions.

You already know that there's some fabulous music on that set.

Yes, that's why I spent some $$ to get it (135$ to be exact... and it slipped through customs without trouble, luckily). I've got two early vinyls (Tina Brooks and Art Pepper), but then there's quite a gap... I think the next ones I have are in the 130s. From about the 150s/160s on I have most of what I wanted. But it's always a thrill when I get a chnce to grab another earlier one!

Listening to the newly acquired Mobley set, it sounds wonderful!!! But I also just received the new Ellington big band box set. Kid in a candy store=me!!! Very good night of listening ahead!

Duke Ellington Small Group Sessions, disc 4

[gslade]

Just started the new Ellington MD11-248

[Dharmafor1]

Chico Hamilton , starting with Satin Doll. Been listening to a lot of West Coast and it led me back to both Shelly and Chico. since I often put the Shelly Blackhawk sides on , I figured I'd zag this time instead of zigging, and I always forget how his chamber approach is such a nice departure from other dates of that time.

Jack Teagarden Roulette Sessions Disk #3

[sidewinder]

CDs 1 to 3

[brownie]

Hank Mobley BN Fifties Sessions, disc 1

[jazzbo]

The Lionel Hampton, it's lifting my mood.

[golfcrazy1984]

The Classic Artie Shaw Bluebird and Victor Sessions. ALL DAY. I've neglected it in favor of the Benny Goodman set for too long. Great set, and the sound is fine, but not like the Malcolm Addey remastered Benny Goodman set.

[brownie]

The Andrew Hill Solo Select, disc 1 (disc 2 will be next...)

[golfcrazy1984]

Classic Columbia and Okeh Benny Goodman Orchestra Sessions Disks 5-7 today. Being a lifelong Ellington and Basie fanatic, I am shocked how much I LOVE this whole box set. Benny is amazing and every incarnation of his band is TIGHT and SWINGIN'. I listen to this set often.
