sidewinder Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Earlier today - Art Pepper Mosaic Select, CD2. Very high sustained standard on this set. Listening to the interaction between Pepper and Russ Freeman is a joy. Quote

Very nice ! yes, yes, yes. very, very nice. but what i wanted to state here is the complete blue note fifties hank mobley sessions. very, very good! and a good way to own all of the great and not always availalble 50s albums. plus the sidemen list is amazing.

king ubu Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Discs one and two so far, going on for a few more hours... lovely music! Quote
Face of the Bass Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 Listening to the first four discs of the Modern Jazz Quartet box. Love discs one through three...such thoughtful, patient music, and the collaborations with Giuffre and Rollins are beautiful, arresting. Disc four, on the other hand, presents the kind of music that made me skeptical about grabbing this set. I find that I can't stand Third Stream Music, maybe because I'm not that interested in the arrangements, and the whole thing feels encumbered by the added instrumentation. Not a fan. Quote

Sundog Posted July 17, 2011 Report Posted July 17, 2011 Charles Tolliver Big Band, Disc 1 Absolutely top notch writing, arranging, playing etc. Nice notes as well. Mainly consisting of an enlightening interview with CT. Quote
golfcrazy1984 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Just put in the Jimmie Lunceford disk 1. AMAZING sound and musicianship! I was wary because Andreas Meyer was the remastering guy (didn't care for the Armstrong or the Artie Shaw Mosaic sets sound...perhaps it was the best he could do). At any rate this should be a very fun next few weeks discovering this new music (to me)!!! Quote

Mainly consisting of an enlightening interview with CT. That'll have to be be in on my next order then, together with the Sam Rivers. Now spinning - Blue Mitchell, CD4. Quote
ghost of miles Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Just put in the Jimmie Lunceford disk 1. AMAZING sound and musicianship! I was wary because Andreas Meyer was the remastering guy (didn't care for the Armstrong or the Artie Shaw Mosaic sets sound...perhaps it was the best he could do). At any rate this should be a very fun next few weeks discovering this new music (to me)!!! Just started listening to it myself last night and yes, great sound and musicianship. All I've had of the Lunceford Deccas are the two 1990s GRP compilations, so hearing this set promises to be a real revelation for me. Nice article by Marc Myers in the Wall Street Journal today: Swing's Forgotten King Charles Tolliver Big Band, Disc 1 Absolutely top notch writing, arranging, playing etc. Nice notes as well. Mainly consisting of an enlightening interview with CT. Got this one just yesterday along with the Lunceford and am going to feature them both on our weekday afternoon jazz show next month. Quote

golfcrazy1984 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 The Sarah Vaughan Roulette set. It's beautiful music, and of course, there's Sassy. Incomparable. Sure there's a lot of fluff and corny pop, but man, can she sing!!! Also, very nice sound quality in this set. Quote
