sidewinder Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 Andrew Hill set. CD1 in fact of the 'Select'. Magnificent - haven't appreciated this one enough. Quote
montg Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 Mobley, Disc 4. Coincidentally the session on this disc with Byrd, Ware etc. was recorded 50 years ago almost to the day (April 21, 1957) Quote
B. Goren. Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 Andrew Hill set. CD1 in fact of the 'Select'. Magnificent - haven't appreciated this one enough. Which of the selects??? There are 2 Hill Selects. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 The first one. I'd forgotten that there was a second one now available of the solo material - which I really must get around to ordering. Quote

Clunky Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 (edited) Just finished disc 2... still a bit disappointing.... Jazz Crusaders - Disc 1... I'm finding this a little disappointing.... Hope it gets better.... I listened to the clips on the Mosaic site the other day and I wasn't impressed. Lift music as far as I could tell. Perhaps their live session might be a better place to start. Right now ....Disc 7 Chu Berry.. Very nice set, the Calloway material is significantly better than expected but pales by comparison to the material with Fletcher Henderson. Transfers are very clean but perhaps could do with a little more top end. I compared "I hope Gabriel ..." from the Gene Krupa session with the transfers of the wonderful Hep discs "Hecklers Hop" issued under Roy Eldridge's name. The Mosaic transfers were in every way better, less surface noise, les distortion, , instruments more full bodied and a greater sense of space. The Heps don't sound bad but the Mosaic transfers are superior. Edited April 27, 2007 by Clunky Quote
