The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 Nice afternoon with Sonny Stitt - Roost sessions discs 7-9 MG Quote
mikelz777 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 Inspired by an earlier post and because I haven't listened to this in a long time. It's even better than I remembered! This set is awesome. I was pleasantly surprised by Tubby Hayes on the first disc. It makes me want to check out a little more of him. Quote
Tom 1960 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) I agree with you 100%, Mikelz777. Tubby Hayes is definitely someone I'm going to further explore also. Not unlike the great job Harold Land did on the Carmel Jones set. Right now: Disc 3 What a dynamite set! How come this guy wasn't more well known? I'm incredibly glad I bought this set. In addition, since I've now become alot more familiar with Stanley Turrentines work featured in the 2 above sets, his 5 cd set on Mosaic is now on my radar screen. Maybe in another month..

mikelz777 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 I'm a big fan of the Stanley Turrentine set. Just look at some of the personnel: Blue Mitchell and Lee Morgan on trumpet; Curtis Fuller on trombone; Sonny Clark, Horace Parlan and Cedar Walton on piano; Shirley Scott on organ; Kenny Burrell on guitar. I was also very impressed with his brother Tommy Turrentine on trumpet. I'm a Mr. T fan and his Mosaic was well, well worth the investment. Quote
Tom 1960 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 It sounds like a great set Mike. Thanks for your thoughts. I too am quite impressed with Tommy Turrentine owning a few releases where he's featured as a sideman for both Sonny Clark and Jackie McLean. Quote
king ubu Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 I finally got started really digging into the chubby Mildred box... great stuff! I'm only halfway into disc 2 but this looks like a great box. One of the most thorough booklets I've yet seen, not just documenting/annotating the sessions but filling in the gaps and actually providing a timeline of all those years. About time I come to listen to it, I picked it up when it went OOP... Quote
tranemonk Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 (edited) now Disc 2... so far I like it... Disc 1 Oliver Nelson.... Don't hear too much talk about this one ... Edited February 24, 2007 by tranemonk Quote

I'll get it a few month before it goes OOP and likely will give it a first spin a few months after it's OOP... and I think I'm not alone there... too many things to pick up, no chance to keep up with the Mosaic release schedule!

That's my plan too (unless zweitausendeins bale me out). And I can't wait to hear this Nelson Mosaic ! Edited February 27, 2007 by sidewinder Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 To the shops this morning with Bennie Green, all 3 discs. First time I've listened to the "Soul stirrin'" and "Congo lament" sessions on walkman, though I've had these recordings for years. Two tenors and a trombone is a fabulous sound! MG Quote
