Disc 1. Fantasy did a really nice job with their label-overview sets (Debut, Prestige, and this one—and they also curated an excellent multi-label West Coast Jazz collection).

Have all of those - FOPP over here sold them off at £10 a shot back in the day. All very good.

Disc Two

[Rooster_Ties]

The back half (last 3 discs) of the Tristano/Konitz/Marsh Atlantic Mosaic.

it starts with 3 Konitz dates — then the one Konitz/Marsh co-leader date — and finally the one Marsh date.

For some reason I found the Riverside set less insightful than the others in the series. The Prestige and Debut sets are favorites.

That Hemphill box is something else.

Still remember hearing it for the first time in a bar in Derby in about 1985 and bothering the bar staff to tell me what it was I was hearing. Been a favourite since. Possibly the first time I knowingly listened to kora too, I have listened to a lot since.
