CHICO HAMILTON QUINTET Complete Pacific Jazz Recordings (Mosaic MQ9-175) RARE US 1st Pressing MINT!
RARE US 9xLP limited-edition pressing of the Chico Hamilton Quintet`s "Complete Pacific Jazz Recordings", released on Mosaic Records in 1997. 
A limited-edition release numbered within the booklet, this is copy number 0485 of 5000 copies.
"The original Chico Hamilton Quintet was one of the last significant West Coast jazz bands of the cool era. Consisting of Buddy Collette on reeds (flute, clarinet, alto, and tenor), guitarist Jim Hall, bassist Carson Smith, and the drummer/leader, the most distinctive element in the group's identity was cellist Fred Katz. The band could play quite softly, blending together elements of bop and classical music into their popular sound and occupying their own niche. 
This nine-LP, limited-edition box set from 1997 starts off with a Hamilton drum solo from a 1954 performance with the Gerry Mulligan Quartet; it contains three full albums (and many previously unreleased numbers) by the original Chico Hamilton band and also has quite a few titles from the second Hamilton group (...). In addition, there are three titles from the third Hamilton Quintet (with Eric Dolphy on flute and alto) and a 1959 Duke Ellington tribute date that featured both Collette and Paul Horn. Most of these performances were formerly quite rare and never reissued coherently before. Highly recommended to jazz historians and to listeners who enjoy classic cool jazz, this box is sure to be sold out quickly." - Scott Yanow for allmusic.com
