DIZZY REECE: MOSAIC SELECT 11
Dizzy Reece, a New York-based trumpeter born in Jamaica, made four solid records for Blue Note from 1958 to 1960 that disappeared into collectors-only oblivion; this set resurrects them. ("Blues in Trinity," recorded before he got to America, with a band including the little-known English saxophonist Tubby Hayes and the American drummer Art Taylor, is a special find; the rest come from after his resettlement, using New York musicians from the A-list or close to it.) Mr. Reece played with a hint of downcast calm; his style wasn't as hard-shelled as many American trumpeters of his time. Three CD's. $39. Available from Mosaic only. BEN RATLIFF
