    This is one new to me, but what a fantastic group. Does it meet expectations?

    Please remind us (J.A.W. or anyone) what Desmond track (date if possible) was omitted by Mosaic. Thanks.

    I think it was "Alianca". Don't know the date.

  7. Two more from ASTRUD GILBERTO 5 ORIGINAL ALBUMS (Verve) 5CD Box

    CD4
    [​IMG]

    WINDY - ASTRUD GILBERTO (Verve) CD
    Astrud Gilberto (vocals). Arranged & conducted by Eumir Deodata / Don Sebesky / Patrick Williams. Recorded 1968.

    A pleasant enough 'easy listening/pop' album. I could do without her version of
    The Bare Necessities and possibly one or two other numbers.

    I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do / Astrud Gilberto (Verve) CD

    with
    Astrud Gilberto (vocals), Stan Free's Studio Orchestra, Frank Owens & Paul Griffin (piano), Sam Brown & Albert Gorgoni (guitar), Richard Davies & George Duviver (bass), Gary Chester (drums), Albert Gorgoni (arranger & conductor). Recorded 1969

    Good album, and one well worth hearing.

    I doubt I would have gone for many of these titles as stand alone editions, but getting hold of 5 for basically the price of one disc was an attractive proposition for me and overall I am pleased enough with this purchase. I should mention there are a number of tracks (numbers 2 & 3 in particular) on The Astrud Gilberto Album (CD1 in this box) that sound annoyingly louder in parts than they probably should. Unfortunately not the best master has been used for this one. The other 4 discs in the box all sound fine.

  8. Re Nat Adderley The Scavenger
    Well Joe Henderon at this early stage (1968) is the promising artist for the future on this date. Nats compositions are in the line of his "Work Song", some with latin rhythm which is not my cup of tea. Joe sounds very funky when playing e-p. Steig with his flute blends fine with the cornets but isnt on all tracks. I would give it 3 1/2 stars. The rhythm section is fine througout the whole session.

  9. Have them all on the original vinyls. A fine box with the best selection of her voice except the one with Getz is missing.

    Checked the liners and it's noted that CEDAR was used by Paul Brizzi. I have to say, it hasn't bothered me at all just yet. And I've gotten rid of my share of CEDAR'd jazz discs as they sounded like I was listening to the music from a heavily blanketed speaker in another room. This one's not like that yet, but I haven't gone through the whole thing.

    Side note, need to edit my comments on the music of What's New. Turned out to be pretty kitschy overall. Not my thing. I wouldn't buy this album on its own.

    Listened to the first 2 discs in this box set. Terrible packaging for the discs inside, but I'm loving the rest of it even though it's a bit of a mash-up.

    Just played quiet kenny preceded by Freddie Hubbard "going up". These albums share a song but it goes by two different names. Lotus blossom= Adriatic Raes on the Hubbard album. Both are good records. Which do you like better?
