A listener recently inquired about a Gerald Wilson discography. I don't see one on Mike Fitzgerald's page, and an initial Google search turned up only relatively recent items. Any suggestions or recommendations for a decent discography?

not a decent discography but a starting point is the contents listing of the gerald wilson mosaic

http://www.mosaicrecords.com/discography.a...umber=198-MD-CD

this is 60s

for some 40s sessions there is the Hobart Dotson discography at jazzdiscography.com...

no idea besides allmusic.com for 50s, or a more complete listing

Way too obvious for a dumb smart-guy like me! :lol: That's actually perfect for the needs of this listener, a casual fan who's interested in checking out some GW sounds. I recommended the recent ARTIST SELECTS comp as a good starting point. Have sent the AMG link to her now as well. Many thanks for helping me locate the forest in the trees (or something like that).

I have been looking for a complete discography as well because the 1970s and 1980s recordings seem a little grey to me.

Does anyone know much about the Discovery recordings?

The Discovery albums I've seen are reissues of his World Pacific/Pacific Jazz albums. Not sure if he recorded anything especially for this label. Come to think of it, the only albums I've seen on Discovery by anyone are reissues.

If you are "serious" about the music, why not buy a discography or discographies?

Yes we really should abolish this discography forum , since all available discographies are complete and error-free . :rolleyes::rolleyes:
