I find myself. . . bored. The music just doesnn't excite me these days. Other days in the future will probably be different.

:o

To paraphrase Dr. Johnson - "A man who is tired of the Jazztet Mosaic is tired of life.." :)

That Capitol Set is a good one. I have it on vinyl so will prise it off the shelf (with fork lift truck) later.

Oh I've listened to that music on and off for most of twenty years. . . . I just find the Jazztet material in particular to be a tad too "arranged" for my current tastes. I crave rawer and more visceral stuff I guess. Life's circumstances seem to color my listening habits.

Loving the Sarah Vaughan Complete Roulette Recordings at the moment. Yup, there's some schmaltzy stuff in there that Sarah was stuck doing while under contract to Roulette. However, once you get past that, there are some true gems, such as Sarah + 2. Up until I was gifted this wonderful set last week, I had the LP with many a scratch. Wonderful to have a scratchless source for this magnificent recording.

Been up for 120 minutes. . . listened again to the first disc of the Fats Waller Legacy box set, and now I'm really enjoying disc 3 of the Mildred Bailey Mosaic.

Miles Davis Plugged Nickel Lp set. Just got this in the mail yesterday. I won this from eBay; a partial, new unplayed set with box & booklet. Has 8 of 10 records, missing Records 1 & 5. List price new was near $200 with the shipping. My cost:

$96 shipped! I'm thrilled as it's perfect! :cool:
