Blues, Boogie & Bop:  The 1940's Mercury Sessions

Disc Six of Seven, which includes sessions led by Rex Stewart, Buddy Rich and Cootie Williams.  One of the Williams sessions includes "'Gator Tail" Parts One and Two, featuring a young Willis Jackson.

i've been playing that lately.  It's not entirely practical in that it's a little difficult to open but I think it's the most original package ever.  Each disc has its own  design as does the paper sleeve and the cardboard  protector (what is that called?). A lot of graphics . I'm surprised that it was an edition of 20,000.

 

Been listening to the  Roy Bird (aka Professor Longhair) sides. Is this the earliest example of that style of New Orleans  piano playing?

Disc 2: One of my all-time favorite Mosaics.  I'd like to sit down and write a lengthy post about it at some point.
