jazzbo Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I love that Weston, just great music. Right now, Curtis Amy disc two. Again, a great set of music from top to bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Been listening to the June Christy/Peggy Lee Complete Capitol Transcriptions set. I forget about this set for a while and when I pull it out I nearly always listen to the complete set. The Christy sides are great. As a warm-blooded guy I get the impression listening to June that she's a beautiful and sweet gal that you just want to protect and build a nest with. And then the Peggy sides come along and you all of a sudden want to hold the door to your convertible open to Peggy and go for a long cruise and end up with a steak and martinis by the ocean by candlelight. Ah! A great set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah! A great set. Hey Lonson - nice commentary, great sales pitch. You make me want to buy that set (which I will in any case when it gets to 'running low'). You should definitely be working for Mosaic A&R/Marketing. Edited May 4, 2008 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Well. . . since I've just retired I don't think I'll take that job yet. . . . It's a great set, you definitely should grab it when the time is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Randy Weston Select - the Piano-a-la-Mode session Had this on a Jubilee LP when I was in college, & wore it out playing it on a bad turntable. Great record and great to be able to hear it again. Thanks to Mr. Weston for the music and to Mr. Cuscuna and Mosaic for making it available again.
