Sonny Stitt: The Complete Roost Sonny Stitt Studio Recordings

Read "The Complete Roost Sonny Stitt Studio Recordings" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Easily one of the most recorded saxophonists in the annals of modern jazz history, saxophonist Sonny Stitt’s catalog is filled with almost equal portions of the inspired and the routine. At his best, he was a melody man who combined a love of Johnny Hodges’ rich sonorities with a bop-inflected tartness akin to that of Charlie ...

Stanley Turrentine: The Blue Note Stanley Turrentine Quintet/Sextet Studio Sessions

Read "The Blue Note Stanley Turrentine Quintet/Sextet Studio Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


With Mosaic Records expanding its horizons over the past few years, fans of many different styles have had the opportunity to expand their collections and recent Mosaic honorees have included Mildred Bailey, Eddie Condon, Bobby Hackett, Chico Hamilton, and Anita O’Day. But to those long time followers, it continues to be the hard bop verities of ...

Bobby Hackett: The Complete Capitol Bobby Hackett Solo Sessions

Read "The Complete Capitol Bobby Hackett Solo Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


For a myriad of reasons, it seems that the audience which supports a major portion of jazz music’s current fortunes knows little about the mainstream artists of the ‘40s and ‘50s. It’s as if anything that occurred before Charlie Parker hit becomes lost in the shuffle. Sure, these fans may be familiar with Duke Ellington or ...

Various Artists: The Classic Columbia Condon Mob Sessions

Read "The Classic Columbia Condon Mob Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


As documented over the past century, the jazz message can be a varied and diverse thing, encompassing everything from the blues to the avant-garde. This is not to say that some styles haven’t been more popular than others. Clearly, the swing music of Benny Goodman and Count Basie rings truer for the average jazz fan than ...

Paul Chambers/Wynton Kelly: The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers/Wynton Kelly Sessions 1959-61

Read "The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers/Wynton Kelly Sessions 1959-61" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Following hard on the heels of Mosaic’s already acclaimed Vee-Jay set collecting early works from Wayne Shorter and Lee Morgan, we get The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers-Wynton Kelly Sessions, a superlative companion piece that sets straight material that has been issued and reissued in haphazard form for many years now. In addition to a pair ...

Lee Morgan/Wayne Shorter: The Complete Vee Jay Lee Morgan-Wayne Shorter Sessions

Read "The Complete Vee Jay Lee Morgan-Wayne Shorter Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


It’s unlikely that we’ll ever again see the kind of concentrated intensity and sheer amount of music amassed as that which entered the jazz lexicon during the ‘50s and ‘60s. Not only does there seem to be less of an interest in the music by fans and musicians alike, but also the precipitous nature of the ...
