montg Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 Thad Jones, Disc 1. Interesting to compare Shadow Wilson (first half of the disc) with Max Roach (second half). Quote
HolyStitt Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 Finished the Prima/Manone set yesterday and this morning I started in on The Complete Verve Johnny Hodges Small Group Sessions:1956-61. So far not too many surprises here, just wonderful music. Quote
king ubu Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 I think the rules vary from label to label (and in the case of the Cole for exampe, artist estate to artist estate). The labels take influence on how much music Mosaic's allowed to put on a CD? Seriously? In what ridiculous a world are we living... holding corporation called America, I guess, and everyone else is voluntarily accepting and following its rules... Quote
jazzbo Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 I know that the Cole estate for instance stipulated in the nineties how long a Cole cd could be etc. I didn't think that exited in a vacuum, and i THINK I remember talk of other such instances. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 Classic Columbia Small Group Swing sessions, CDs 7 and 8. Quote

Wow, I didn't know about that! Together with what Chuck (I think it was him) posted in another thread about those GRP twofers were some titles were omitted (Art Farmer Quartet, Zoot Sims) due to similar business rules, that's all quite pathetic! Seems like they started digging their own graves quite a while ago... Quote
jazzbo Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 Well, the amount of people who really care about these things is so few . . .statistically speaking in the market place. Thank goodness for Cuscuna, the Uptown folks and a few others who care and do it right. . .the few. . . the proud. Quote

GA Russell Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 Herbie Nichols, disc 1 I'm not Nichols' biggest fan, but the music here is so different from anything else I own that I enjoy it from time to time. Quote
John Tapscott Posted April 13, 2008 Report Posted April 13, 2008 Thad Jones - Mel Lewis - fabulous stuff - probably my favorite Mosaic set. The sound quailty is amazing. Quote

sidewinder Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 Buddy Rich, Rich in London (Mosaic single) Recorded at Ronnie Scott's in 1971. How is the sound on this? Is this the material that came out on the RCA 'Very Alive At Ronnie Scotts' 2LP set? Quote
BillF Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 Buddy Rich, Rich in London (Mosaic single) Recorded at Ronnie Scott's in 1971. How is the sound on this? Is this the material that came out on the RCA 'Very Alive At Ronnie Scotts' 2LP set? Sound quality is good, though you can tell the band is playing in a confined space. Material originally issued on Rich in London (RCA LSP-4666) and Very Alive at Ronnie Scott's (English RCA DPS-2031. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 Thanks ! I'll dig my 2LP set out of this one. Quote
captainwrong Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 (edited) Duke Pearson Select...two discs of nice Bossa influenced stuff...then disc three comes along. The Xmas stuff, I'm sure I'll dig later, but the easy listening vocal session was more than I could take. However, the first two discs received the rare and coveted wife approval award, so that means something, right? Edited April 18, 2008 by Captain Wrong Quote
