Decca Sessions
1935-46 (#243)
Sort by Artist Name > Sort by Product Number
| | Louis Armstrong The Complete Louis Armstrong Decca Sessions 1935-46 (#243) Some of the performances are among the most significant of his life and a lasting gift to music - there isn't a trumpeter since who hasn't marveled at the brilliance of his tone, coherence of his soloing, and perfection of his execution on the 1938 "Struttin' With Some Barbecue." It is, plain and simple, a flawless record. - Limited Edition: 10000 Copies

| | Chu Berry Classic Chu Berry Columbia and Victor Sessions (#236) A Master Class in Swing.This is a comprehensive collection with countless pivotal sessions. If he hadn't died young, Chu Berry might have become the most influential tenor saxophonist of the 20th Century. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies
| ||
| | Anthony Braxton The Complete Arista Recordings of Anthony Braxton (#242) What made Braxton's output at Arista (1974-80) so unique was the range of projects he was able to realize thanks to the supportive budgets of a major label. This 8-CD set rescues his entire 13-LP Arista output from forgotten vaults. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies
| ||
| | Clifford Brown & Max Roach The Clifford Brown & Max Roach Emarcy Albums (4 LPs)(#3004) In the words of liner note writer Bob Blumenthal, the Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet created one of the very greatest string of small-group recordings in jazz history, worthy of consideration alongside the Hot Fives and Sevens of Louis Armstrong and the quintets of Charlie Parker and Miles Davis. - Limited Edition: 2500 Copies
| ||
| | Bing Crosby The Bing Crosby CBS Radio Recordings (1954-56) (#245) The 160 songs in this Mosaic collection were recorded with the Buddy Cole Quartet between 1954 and 1956 for Bings CBS show are absolutely revelatory. Crosbys early jazz roots informed his influential career as a pop singer. To our knowledge, these are the only recorded performances of Crosby singing the Great American Songbook in an informal atmosphere with a consummate small jazz ensemble. - Limited Edition: 20,000 Copies

| | Duke Ellington Duke Ellington: 1936-40 Small Group Sessions (#235) This set gathers together all the small group sessions led by Duke Ellington and his sidemen Rex Stewart, Barney Bigard, Cootie Williams and Johnny Hodges, during the years 1936-40. - Limited Edition: 10000 Copies

| | Duke Ellington The Complete 1932-1940 Bruns./Col./Master Rec. of Ellington "Sophisticated Lady." "Stormy Weather." "Solitude." "In a Sentimental Mood." "Echoes of Harlem." "Caravan." All of them and many more are a part of "The Complete 1932-1940 Brunswick, Columbia, and Master Recordings of Duke Ellington and His Famous Orchestra," an unprecedented 11-CD set that compiles these recordings for the first, and quite possibly the last, time. There would be many more exceptional compositions in the years following, including his highly regarded suites and longer works, but the scope of our latest, lavish Mosaic collection is the period when Ellington would establish himself as the most important composer ever in jazz. - Limited Edition: 5,000 Copies

And fortunately, for the select group of jazz fans that will snap up this release, the music represents a time in Dizzy's career when he was peaking creatively. - Limited Edition: 10000 Copies
| ||
| | Benny Goodman The Columbia and OKeh Benny Goodman Orchestra Sessions (#240 A treasure trove of seven CDs, spanning nearly 20 years of Goodman's musical life, from the late 1930s when his popularity was already well established, throughout the 1950s when Benny would assemble the cream of the mainstream jazz world to be, even if it were just for one session, the Benny Goodman Orchestra. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies
| ||
| | Bobby Hackett The Complete Capitol Bobby Hackett Solo Sessions (#210) Most of these hard-to-come-by Capitol sessions have been long forgotten and unavailable for decades.

| ||
| | Lionel Hampton The Complete Lionel Hampton Victor Sessions 1937-41 (#238) We regard this set as among our very significant releases, because of the moment in music it captures; because of the quality of the music and the sidemen; because of the comprehensive nature of the collection; and because of the sound restoration. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies

The first definitive collection of his work from this seminal era of his career, it includes all the tunes for which Jamal became renowned, such as Ahmad's Blues, Poinciana, But Not For Me, and Billy Boy, a song so often re-done in Jamal's style that his version has almost become the new standard. - Limited Edition: 5,000 Copies

| | Jimmie Lunceford The Complete Jimmie Lunceford Decca Sessions (#250) With reliable interest in the Swing era, youd think the industry by now would have commissioned comprehensive retrospectives of every name of seminal importance. Every band of era-defining significance. But youd be wrong. Inexplicably, there has been a glaring omission. Until now. With Mosaics latest set of The Complete Jimmie Lunceford Decca Sessions, one can appreciate the innovations and brilliance of this band as never before. - Limited Edition: 5,000 Copies

| | Charles Mingus Charles Mingus - The Jazz Workshop Concerts 1964-65 (#253) This set chronicles the essential live performances of this genius of modern music as his compositions achieved a depth and complexity we would come to know as Minguss most signature work.

| | Hank Mobley The Complete Blue Note Hank Mobley Fifties Sessions (#181) As one of the founding members of the original Jazz Messengers, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley was part of a brilliant innovation.
