jazzbo Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 I'm listening to a lot of Claude Thornhill and WISHING there was a Mosaic set. In the latest stuff. . . I'm hearing piano and bass and drums that seems Monkish. And it makes me think that Thelonious was listening hard to Claude (?) Quote
sidewinder Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Grachan Moncur CD1 More than acceptable sound on this set ! Quote
Soulstation1 Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Posted February 7, 2009 The Complete Big John Patton on Blue Note One greazzzy MP3!!! Quote
tranemonk Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Hate to be the obnoxious grammarian... but that's a double negative..... :blink: Nobody does not beat the Diz! Disc Seven. Quote
P.L.M Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Braxton Mosaïc. For the moment I'm at the end of CD two - Braxton in solo. Love it. Quote
tranemonk Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 a few brief cuts of Anita O'Day... Disc 6... How can this set NOT remind you of Glenn Close (aka Fatal Attraction) or Kathleen Turner (Body Heat)??? :excited: :wub: Who's with me???? :unsure: Quote
jazzbo Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Hmm. . . I'm actually not a fan of Close or Turner particularly, so I'm glad that O'Day reminds me of neither! I listened to disc two of the Handy Mosaic this afternoon. . . right before going off to see "Che (Part One)". . . . Quote
montg Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Byrd/Adams. The 1967 session with Corea, probably my favorite one in this set. Quote
montg Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 next up, Tal Farlow, the 1956 session with Eddie Costa and Vinnie Burke. Love how Costa digs in on the lower range of the piano Quote
jazzbo Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Yes, all the stuff of Tal and Eddie here and elsewhere are special! Quote
mjzee Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 I just sprang for the Benedetti Bird box. It's backordered, though. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Wow, they must be in between printings. That's a fantastic box set. Quote
mjzee Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 I hope so. I actually like the "Bird's Eyes" titles I've heard. The bad sound, the music abruptly stopping and starting, and of course the sheer brilliance of Bird's playing - in total, it sounds like musique concrete! Also, it'll just be nice to hold a piece of history. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 It's a piece of history, it's a labor of love. . . . I think you'll find yourself immersed in it more often than you might originally think. Quote
Guest Bixieland Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Another helping of disc 7... ...there still isn't nobody who does not beat the Diz! Quote
tranemonk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 okay twist my arm Ron.... :angry: Lee/Christy--discs 1 and 2 Quote
Ron S Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 okay twist my arm Ron.... :angry: Lee/Christy--discs 1 and 2 It's about to go OOP, it's on sale, it's got fantastic singing, playing, and sound (Malcolm Addey), PLUS, you just (well, a few years ago) saved a bundle on your soon-to-be-OOP Farlow set (thanks to me ). So what are you waiting for? Quote
Ron S Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Lee/Christy--discs 1 and 2 Now, discs 3 and 4. Terrific set. Get it while you can! Quote
Guest Bixieland Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Those are a couple of sweeties ain't they? Quote
Guest Bixieland Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Mosaic Select: Woody Herman - disc 3 Oh man this is good! Why oh why has it taken me this many weekends to return to thee!! Quote
