The Savory Collection 1935-1940 [Mosaic 266] 6 CD Box Set
Limited Edition Box Set Includes: Six CDs with 108 tracks locked away for more than 70 years and finally available on CD for the very first time anywhere. “Imagine finding an unknown play by Shakespeare or an unknown novel by Mark Twain,” said Schoenberg upon hearing the recordings. “That’s what this is.” There is no better person to write these notes than the celebrated Loren Schoenberg who has written so many of our Mosaic booklets. Loren is the man responsible for bringing to light these storied recordings which were taken off the air and his in-depth knowledge of the music and history of these long awaited recordings is one of the highlights of recorded jazz history. What makes this set so unique is that practically every one of these recordings have never been heard before. They are broadcast material that was professionally recorded onto lacquer discs and aluminum discs by Bill Savory and through today’s advances have been lovingly restored by the pre-eminent engineer and restoration engineer Doug Pomeroy. We have brought together some rare photos of the various artists in this set many of which are unknown. Everything from Miller to Fats to Basie and even a Martin Block Jam Session photo from the studios of WNEW. Includes rare tracks by John Kirby, Ella Fitzgerald, Chick Webb, Roy Eldridge, Joe Sullivan, Coleman Hawkins, Lionel Hampton, Charlie Shavers, Glenn Miller, and many more!
