king ubu Posted September 27, 2011 Report Posted September 27, 2011 The Complete Roost Sonny Stitt Studio Sessions - CD1 Went on with this one... into CD4 by now - great! Blargh ... yet another set on my 'bypass' list that I now feel an insatiable urge to own. Returning for a second round... won't finish it today, I think, but I'm about to finish disc 3 now - amazing stuff! As Zan Stewart says in his notes, some other excellent, even outstanding stuff (the sessions w/Bud, the Cobblestones, some of the stuff w/Jug) notwithstanding, this group of records may be the very best chunk of Stitt's huge oeuvre! And that says me, who generally prefers Stitt on tenor... Quote

golfcrazy1984 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Posted October 10, 2011 Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions. Disk 6. This is a great set, that sadly doesn't get much play. Gonna try to fix that this evening! Quote
Face of the Bass Posted October 11, 2011 Report Posted October 11, 2011 Disc 1, finally, after a long search. This music makes me indescribably happy. Quote
golfcrazy1984 Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 Lunceford Mosaic. Disk 6. Nice band!!! Even after Snooky and Willie Smith left. Cool arrangements. As far as the Mosaic packaging is concerned, the booklet is very informative and the remastering is excellent. Quote

golfcrazy1984 Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 Lester Young/Count Basie Mosaic. "Lester Leaps In". Prez was one of the best (and the first). I think I will be celebrating the tenor greats in anticipation of the new Coleman Hawkins Mosaic!!!! Quote
