Which Mosaic Are You Enjoying Right Now?

[king ubu]

hugely enjoyed revisiting the Vee Jay sets ... and frankly, I'd love to have a huge number of alternates on the albums that don't have any - "Kelly Great", the first Kelly trio w/Philly Joe and the Chambers with Lateef and Tommy Turrentine - that's one cool band right there!

Complete Argo / Mercury Art Farmer / Benny Golson / Jazztet Sessions; Meet the Jazztet and The Jazztet & John Lewis. This is one of my least-played Mosaics, but tonight I'm not sure why - as I was looking through the booklet to decide which sessions to spin, it seemed to have an embarrassment of riches.

I don't have the Jazztet box, but I had a similar occurrence recently. I played some Benny Golson and remembered what a great player he is and how I've tended to overlook him - and for no good reason.
