tranemonk Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Roy Eldridge Disc 1 and 2... I was very hesitant about this one... and I only took the plunge 'cause I had an $88 credit at Mosaic having returned the Sidney Bechet & Weston Selects.... So far..... We'll see how I feel by Disc 6.... Quote

ghost of miles Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 I've been revisiting the Woody Herman 1945-47 Columbia box... lots of musical gems here that I'd never heard before (before this set came out, all I had of the Columbia material was the 2-CD BLOWIN' UP A STORM compilation, which is worth checking out for the Ralph Burns liner notes in addition to the "Best of" sides gathered within). Those interested in the young trumpeter Sonny Berman should seek this Mosaic out as well. Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 Listened to all 3 discs of this last night; A truly excellent set, almost perfect, I just can't get into "Nixon, Dixon And Yates Blues" though. It's the only stinker IMHO. Quote

It's the only stinker IMHO. I've got the CD "Chambers' music" with that on it. You've inspired me to dig it out to play over breakfast tomorrow (it's nearly bedtime now). MG Quote

MG Yes, listened to it this morning. Those Transition sides are very nice; just like a mid-fifties Prestige jam session without Gene Ammons. And the blues at the end is one I love. Pepper Adams is very beguiling and Trane is at his funkiest. Glad I played it. MG Quote

tranemonk Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 Disc 6... I have to say I'm enjoying this set far more than I expected!!! Hey Ron and Mag Goldberg - Have you picked this set up, yet??? Duke Ellington Complete 36-40 Variety, Vocalion and Okeh Small Group Sessions Disc#4 Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 Disc 6... I have to say I'm enjoying this set far more than I expected!!! Hey Ron and Mag Goldberg - Have you picked this set up, yet??? Duke Ellington Complete 36-40 Variety, Vocalion and Okeh Small Group Sessions Disc#4 I probably should think of it, but I've got a lot of other priorities, including getting a huge bunch of African stuff later in the spring. At present, I'm cutting down in preparation for that splurge. MG Quote
Ron S Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Disc 6... I have to say I'm enjoying this set far more than I expected!!! Hey Ron and Mag Goldberg - Have you picked this set up, yet??? Duke Ellington Complete 36-40 Variety, Vocalion and Okeh Small Group Sessions Disc#4 It's definitely on my list for some point in the future. In the interim, I still have the 2 Columbia "Duke's Men" doubles--containing a lot of these tracks--to tide me over. Quote
