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

7 CDs - $119.00

Bing Crosby
The Bing Crosby CBS Radio Recordings (1954-56) (#245)
This Collection will be released mid-late November. If you preorder, we will not charge your card until it is released.

The 160 songs in this Mosaic collection were recorded with the Buddy Cole Quartet between 1954 and 1956 for Bing’s CBS show are absolutely revelatory. Crosby’s 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

Peggy Lee
The Peggy Lee & June Christy Capitol Transcriptions (#184)
These 1945 to 1946 recordings for Capitol present these two inimitable singers in carefree and musically compelling settings. Originally recorded for radio station airplay only they are extraordinarily collectible because they are so rare. - Limited Edition: 7500 Copies

5 CDs - $80.00

Dave Liebman
Mosaic Select: Pendulum (MS-032)
The unique relationship that was cultivated between Dave Liebman and Richie Beirach beginning in 1969 was exceptional. The deep symbiosis between them grew over the decade that followed and by the time of this gig at the Vanguard, their creative partnership had become one of the great unions in post-bop jazz.

Johnny Mercer
Mosaic Select: Johnny Mercer (MS-028)
In this Mosaic Select, we present 79 Capitol tracks from the label's birth in 1942 to 1947, which showcase the more jazz tinged efforts as well as some non-jazz items that are impeccably delivered by Mr. Mercer. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies

Helen Merrill

Helen Merrill formed an alliance with the versatile pianist Dick Katz who was the pianist , arranger and producer of two of the greatest albums Merrill ever recorded.

Helen Merrill
Helen Merrill - Casa Forte (MCD-1020)
In 1980, she collaborated with her future husband, arranger extraordinaire Torrie Zito and he created the gorgeous setting for a career-defining signature album.

Sarah Vaughan
The Complete Roulette Sarah Vaughan Studio Sessions (#214)
Listening to this music in its entirety, you hear how the simplest tune could become the canvass for a singer’s art. Sarah Vaughan could hit a note head on and hold it, pure and clean. Or, at her command, add a pretty vibrato. - Limited Edition: 5000 Copies

8 CDs - $128.00

Lee Wiley
Lee Wiley - West of the Moon (MCD-1008)
Despite her acumen for picking great songs and her way with a lyric, Wiley found little success beyond the jazz world and her opportunities to record were shamefully scant. Here she is fittingly paired with arranger Ralph Burns whose richly-voiced orchestrations are ideal for her style and delivery.

1 CD - $15.00

Jimmy Witherspoon
Jimmy Witherspoon - Goin To Kansas City (MCD-1011)
Jimmy Witherspoon's first full-length album as a leader is a knock-out! The most inspired notion for this album was reuniting Witherspoon with McShann, who gave him his professional start.
