Rooster_Ties Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) For the record, my post above was just my reposting of a cover of the set from another thread around here. (I'm not takin' the credit for it. ) That Nabors / Jackson Five thing is da bomb!! Edited April 1, 2005 by Rooster_Ties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron S Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) Both Nabors sets are among my all-time favorite Mosaics, along with the Lawrence Welk and the Kenny G and Jimi Hendrix Selects (with thanks to AfricaBrass and BFrank for turning me on to these wonderful sets) Edited April 1, 2005 by Ron S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Twizzle Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 If AMG is to believed, Jim Nabors once played Trumpet on a 1961 Lil Hardin Armstrong record produced by Chris Albertson. http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&t...9l98b5b4tsqs~T4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AfricaBrass Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Nabors is a fantastic musician who's severely underrated. I wish I could spread the gospel of him to jazz lovers everywhere. One of my favorite periods was in the early seventies when he replaced Joe Zawinul in the Cannonball/Nat Adderley group. I hear he was playing stuff so BAD that Miles made an offer for him to join his group. To Nabor's credit, he stayed loyal and kept burning up the keys with Cannonball. I was lucky enough to find a photo from this period: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Is it true that Cuscuna didn't include the Nabors/Mormon Tabernacle Choir session in the set because he doesn't like large vocal groups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky enough to find a photo from this period: It's too bad nobody's yet found the long-lost Adderley session tapes featuring Jim's 2 orginal compositions "SHAZAAAAM!" and "GOLLLLLLLY!" I've heard they were smokin'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 I bought out all the Nabors Mosaics. Figured I'd do a little hoarding. I'll sell you one but first I have to offer it to Allen Lowe for around $2,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Anybody remember the eprisode of Gomer Pyle, USMC where Sgt. Carter needed a female singer for the officer's club and Gomer called in a favor and got Dinah Washington for the gig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
