Dinah Washington on Mercury

[Richard Kaplan]

As a new Dinah Washington fan, I've just picked up "Complete 1943-1951 Mercury Master Takes" on the Jazz Factory label. Does anybody know if Jazz Factory has more Washington sets coming up? I'm eager to hear more, but not sure if I should buy the 3-disc Verve sets that cover the remaining Mercury recordings, or wait for more of the cheaper repackagings from Jazz Factory. What do people advise?
Thanks,

i have the three disc verve set it is very good....you should get that right away cause the price was very reasonable when i got it

Jazz Factory will no doubt continue to issue Dinah as the 50yr copyright limit that applies to the world outside the USA continues to roll through her catalog. I guess it's up to you if you want to wait...
