These sessions live at Art D'Lugoff's Village Gate night club in Greenwich Village on May 31, 1963 were at one point previously unreleased, eventually issued by the short-lived Metro subsidiary of MGM on vinyl sometime after being recorded. The session is barely over 30 minutes, the sound is a bit thin (but not to its detriment), but Smith's playing is peerless as always, and his band with guitarist Quentin Warren and young drummer Billy Hart may be a curiosity for some. Warren is not the best or most adept plectrist Smith had employed, but gets the job done in a quiet, unassuming manner. Well before hitting his stride as a premier progressive jazz performer, Hart's style is set apart from soul-jazz drummers like Donald Bailey, Billy James, or Bernard Purdie, using looser rhythmic associations instead of hard-edged funky beats…

The three CDs that make up the Randy Weston Mosaic Select package comprise the complete sessions from six different albums, one of which was previously unreleased. Weston has had a long and varied career, and one that has established him in the consummate realm of piano soloists with his idiosyncratic, inclusive style. His deep jazz roots were accompanied, almost from the beginning, by the influences of Afro-Caribbean folk and the music of Asia, which he encountered during his tenure with the U.S. armed forces.

"Scapestrati, stravaganti, ingenui, incompetenti, eccentrici e industriosi oltre ogni limite": così nel 1930, in una lettera al nipote Quentin, Virginia Woolf definiva i componenti di quello che fu il gruppo di Bloomsbury. Dello spirito di Bloomsbury David Garnett è stato capace di catturare nei suoi libri la quintessenza: lo humour, la leggerezza, la finezza, ma anche la capacità di penetrare a fondo nelle pieghe dei comportamenti amorosi. Qualità che rendono unico questo conte fantastique, dedicato a quel Duncan Grant che era stato il suo amante e che lo avrebbe poi visto, molto tempo dopo e molto controvoglia, sposare, cinquantenne, la figlia che lo stesso Duncan aveva avuto da Vanessa Bell e a cui il marito di quest’ultima aveva dato serenamente il proprio nome (i triangoli erano la specialità degli "scapestrati")..
