I am really enjoying Phil Urso and Bobby Timmons on this one.

Yes, it is! Unusual that it includes both leader AND sideman dates. Although on BN, no one's really a "sideman." Part of what makes it great, though.

I actually generally prefer Joe Hen BN sideman dates because they push him in different directions than his leader dates, which are fine but more of a piece.  Feel kind of the same way about John McLaughlin, prefer his work with miles to his own.  Joe Hen as a sideman: Idle Moments, Brown Sugar, Point of Departure, Basra, Real McCoy, sidewinder, Song For My Father.

BN has been doing so much reissuing lately, they should think about putting together other packages like this one.

They could do Lou D and/or Rueben W, they both have significant amount of unissued material.

Revisiting this one for the first time in many years:

I rediscovered this a while ago and am now wth the Jones-Smith Inc. group, Basie's Bad Boys and upcoming the Kansas City Seven. What a treasure of a boxset.

Excellent set, one that I need to revisit as well.

Right now, starting off with disc 1 of some Brownie:

Working my way through this one as I read my father's letters to my mother while he was in the army in '47!

Five months without music, I've recently been binge listening to all my twenty-or-so complete Black Saint and Soul Note sets.  Paul Motian at the moment.  

Any music is great; these have the edge of being easy to get to in my collection.

Rolled through Teddy Wilson, Wingy Manone, and solo sessions; now really enjoying the Cab Calloway elements of this box.

[Bluesnik]

And enjoying it immensly. Not only because of Charlie Christian, also because of all of the others. I was listening to Hampton's Mosaic before, so he's a link.
