"The second of three "volumes" put out by Mosaic that reissues the entire Commodore catalog is, like the first, a 23-LP set; all of the music in this massive box was recorded within 13 months. The limited-edition series is a must (although it will be quite difficult to locate) for collectors of Chicago jazz and small-group swing for it is literally overflowing with classics. The first box is the most essential but Volume II is pretty close with recording sessions led by Sidney and Wilbur DeParis, Albert Ammons, Eddie Heywood, Hot Lips Page, Sid Catlett, Billie Holiday, the Kansas City Six with Lester Young, George Zack, Muggsy Spanier, Miff Mole, Joe Bushkin, Max Kaminsky, Edmond Hall, George Wettling, Bobby Hackett, Hot Lips Page, Pee Wee Russell, Red McKenzie, Jess Stacy, Jack Teagarden and Wild Bill Davison. In addition to the usual performances (many of which were previously hard-to-find), there are quite a few previously unissued alternate takes and some selections (including an entire Joe Bushkin Trio date) that were never out before. This set (if it can be found) will be expensive but worth it." - Scott Yanow, AMG
This a HEAVY item - alternate shipping methods/costs preferred by buyer will be accommodated if possible!
About Mosaic Limited Edition Box Sets:
Complete Definitive Collections
Superior Sound Restoration under the supervision of renowned Jazz producer Michael Cuscuna
Numbered Limited Editions
Elegant 12" x 12" Box & Booklet
"These Limited Edition collections are crammed full of sessions In addition to all previously issued material, Mosaic box sets are usually rich with unreleased tracks and valid alternate takes. We track down the best available source material directly from recording company vaults to a network of collectors around the world and restore the audio quality to the best that's ever been heard. Although we believe the value of these sets are priceless, winning bids on out-of-print sets listed on eBay have topped hundreds of $ more than the original selling price. Nothing will replace what we put out.
The Booklet: To put everything into its proper and fascinating perspective, we commission leading authorities to write our booklets and supply collectors with all pertinent dates, personnel listings and discographical information. The Mosaic Records Box Set booklet has been kept to a large 11" x 11" to allow for easy reading and viewing of all the information we pack into the booklet; original session notes, fascinating essays and rare photographs. Nothing will replace what we put out."
