Thanks for that info, Pete. I have now succeeded, I think, in getting together the correct album
sequences of all the Stitt Roost records in that Mosaic box set. Listed below this message. Where
the numbers are A1 ... B1, etc, I have seen actual images of LP labels. Otherwise, I'm going by
sequence orders listed in various places online. In some of those cases, I was able to match up two
or more sources. I don't have reason to believe any of the sources I used are unreliable, but it is
the internets so be forewarned.
