BruceH Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Art Farmer/Benny Golson - The Complete Argo/Mercury Art Farmer/Benny Golson Jazztet Sessions - 7 CDs (Mosaic) Fall — will include 12 LPs recorded from 1960-62: — The Jazztet: "Meet the Jazztet", "Big City Sounds", "And John Lewis", "At Birdhouse", "Here and Now", "Another Git Together" — Art Farmer: "Art", "Perception", "List to Art Farmer and the Orchestra" — Benny Golson: "Turning Point", "Free", "Take a Number From 1 To 10" I know it is a question of taste but from my point of view this is the most interesting set. I love the combination of Golsen & Farmer and they always sound better when Curtis Fuller joined them to the front line. I can promise you I'll be one of first to pre order this set and I have started already the count down... The Jazztet really deserve a Mosaic set so thank you Mosaic for doing this historical justice. I have to agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleM Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 I've often wondered why there have never been any boxed sets featuring Freddie Hubbard (as a leader, of course) . I'm sure there are some compelling marketing reasons why there haven't been any, but I don't give a rat's ass. I want a Hub box set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundog Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 How about an Ahmad Jamal Mosaic of his Argo recordings? That one needs to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Again, with the Jamal there are licensing problems. I have read that Verve released one without asking him and he has taken them to court, and is denying them the release of any others.

That music should be available to the jazz buying public. Hopefully all parties can work things out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 My name is Bill Byam,a new member. The Garner situation is sad indeed.Martha Glaser ,Errols former manager, has control used her veto power to sabotage a Mosaic box set issue.She has a bitter personal vendetta with Columbia executives and in her mid-eighties has been victimized by senility. Classics will release the remaining Garner material over time .Look for a fall release of the solo recordings of Feb 1952. Hope this clarifies the matter. I bet the people at Disconforme will release an Erroll Garner box on Definitive or Jazz Factory of whatever as soon as the 50-year copyright limit has been reached. Will be looking for that one!

I'm sure there are some compelling marketing reasons why there haven't been any, but I don't give a rat's ass. I want a Hub box set! There was a 5-LP box issued in Italy by an outfit called Black Shell of concert performances (in Venice, Milan and Modena) by the Freddie Hubbard Quintet of 1981 (with David Schnitter, Billy Childs, Larry Klein and Carl Burnett). It was a limited edition box. And pretty expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleM Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Well I'll be damned! I think I saw one of these on eBay a long time ago, and completely spaced it. Should've swooped. AAARGH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill B Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 The Jamal litigation has been cleared up.It depends now on how much money Jamal wants. Orrin Keepnews reported that all the unissued tracks of Jamal sessions had vanished from the Argo/Chess vaults. Hopefully,as in the case of Coltrane, they went home with Ahmad. A Jamal Mosaic box may be a better prospect than some now on that list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swinging Swede Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 The Jamal litigation has been cleared up. Which immediately shows in Verve's reissue schedule. There are already two Jamal albums slated for reissue later this year in the LPR series: Chamber Music of the New Jazz and Sound of Christmas.

I preordered it, and I have zero Farlow in my collection. Just going by the line-ups, and the fact that everyone ravs about these sessions.

JohnS Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 No mention in the Mosaic brochure that the Tal Farlow set will be reatiled outside the US. Looks like we are going to have to pay shipping and duty to get the set. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 (edited) Thanks for that Edward, I'm grateful. I'll hold on to my money for a while. Hopefully the Farmer/Jazztet box will be the same. Edited May 26, 2004 by JohnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Hey, where's the Woody Herman Columbia box? Tjazz, Mosaic told me it's been pushed back to mid-July. In the meantime, I'm just going to have to console myself with the Farlow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill B Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Clem, I think that the intent is to do a Jamal /Crosby/Fournier box. I saw Jamal in Boston 2 years ago and he was playing two-fisted hard driving piano. If he comes your way go out of your way to see him.
