This four-CD set from Spain's Definitive label is a redone replica of the Mosaic set issued in the United States as a limited edition for a far better price. What the consumer gives up are the stellar liner notes of the Mosaic set, but he/she gains the same remastered material featuring all of Illinois Jacquet's sides as a leader for the Apollo, Aladdin, Metro, Savoy, and Victor/Bluebird labels. During this period, Jacquet's popularity was soaring and the music here, from swing to honking R&B, reveals why. Much of the material here is readily available elsewhere, but only on the Mosaic set -- now out of print -- is it assembled in one place, making this an indispensable and smart buy for fans of the music of the era, as well as Jacquet aficionados. ~ Thom Jurek
