The Complete Edmond Hall / James P. Johnson / Sidney De Paris / Vic Dickenson Blue Note Sessions Mosaic 1985 Box Set! NM / EX - OOP

This 6LP Mosaic Box Set is a comprehensive collection of vinyl records featuring various artists from the early Blue Note era. This box set includes six LPs of classic Blue Note sessions, providing a complete listening experience for fans of early days of Blue Note Records in New York City. With the renowned Blue Note label behind it, this box set is a must-have for any vinyl enthusiast looking to delve into the deep wells of 1940's and early 1950's jazz. NO RESERVE.
From 1985. Vinyl could pass as un-played. NM. In fact, in the years I have owned this set - I've not played it. The deluxe box has been sitting safely on a Blue Note Shelf. If the original owner played these, they took great care. Box has no tears or broken seams. EX grade. Maybe some very minor shelf wear. NO RESERVE. See pics and message me with any questions.

- AllMusic Review: Complete Edmond Hall / James P. Johnson / Sidney De Paris / Vic Dickenson Blue Note Sessions
Review by Scott Yanow: "To say that this limited-edition six-LP Mosaic box is overflowing with classics is an understatement. Included are a variety of small-group sessions (with overlapping personnel) from the early days of Blue Note. The Edmond Hall Celeste Quartet has five songs that are the only existing examples of Charlie Christian playing acoustic guitar; clarinetist Hall, Meade Lux Lewis (on celeste), and bassist Israel Crosby complete the unique group. The king of stride piano, James P. Johnson, is heard on eight solos; other combos are led by Johnson, Hall (who heads four groups in all), trumpeter Sidney DeParis, and trombonist Vic Dickenson (heard in a 1952 quartet with organist Bill Doggett). Among the other key soloists are vibraphonist Red Norvo, pianist Teddy Wilson, tenor great Ben Webster, baritonist Harry Carney, clarinetist Omer Simeon, and trombonist Benny Morton. But more important than the all-star personnel is the fact that the musicians are consistently inspired, and that the performances (ranging from Dixieland to advanced swing) are well-planned yet spontaneous. The accompanying 26-page booklet is a major plus too. Essential music; get this box while you can."
