John Tapscott Posted January 3, 2007 Report Posted January 3, 2007 The Complete Maynard Ferguson on Roulette I am two CDs into this set and I am having a blast! Literally, I'm sure. But seriously that is a great set! Myself, I am enjoying a set on the other end of the volume spectrum - the Joe Pass. It is a fine set. Quote
tranemonk Posted January 4, 2007 Report Posted January 4, 2007 Finishing up Disc 3 of Farmer/Golson/Jazztet... It seems that those of who bought this already KNOW how good it is... Now for those of you on the fence.... (Ron S? maybe... - although I think you did get this one... ) Grab the Capitol set... and then the Farmer... Quote

Now for those of you on the fence.... (Ron S? maybe... - although I think you did get this one... ) Grab the Capitol set... and then the Farmer... I've had the Jazztet set for a while now--one of my favorites. I am, however, still on the fence about the Capitol set--at the moment leaning towards not getting it. Quote

I've had the Jazztet set for a while now--one of my favorites. I am, however, still on the fence about the Capitol set--at the moment leaning towards not getting it. I ponied up for the Jazztet. . . even though I had almost all the material. I find myself. . . bored. The music just doesnn't excite me these days. Other days in the future will probably be different. I'm so glad I bought the Capitol set years ago. It's expensive and I would be hard pressed not to go for it, and hard pressed to afford it. I don't want to live without it. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 5, 2007 Report Posted January 5, 2007 I find myself. . . bored. The music just doesnn't excite me these days. Other days in the future will probably be different. 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. Quote

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.

makpjazz57 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Posted January 5, 2007 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. Marla Quote
BFrank Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 Byrd/Adams. Really an underrated set. Very enjoyable. Quote

jazzbo Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 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. Quote
Parkertown Posted January 7, 2007 Report Posted January 7, 2007 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! Quote
