Well, I just got box set #10 (Teddy Wilson) and I was wondering where I stood in the "mosaic community."

B-)

[Free For All]

31 and a Woody on the way, if you know what I mean. B-)

[Brad]

I have a lot, more than 40, that's all I'll say.

[Free For All]

Wow, Brad, you must already have YOUR Woody!

[John Tapscott]

Comfortably more than 20. Maybe even a few more than Free for All, and my Woody isn't even on the way...yet!

[BruceH]

I see I have some company in the "More than 20" category. Thank God. Actually I'm in the Brad category: More than 20 (x2). Gulp!

[Free For All]

I predict the "more than 20" category will be the winner by far (knowing this crowd). Except for Conn500, of course.

[Sundog]

30, plus multiples of select titles.

[vibes]

I don't know how many I have, but it's more than 20. The George Shearing just came in the mail today. Can't wait to listen to it!

[Noj]

Crikey!

[Free For All]

George Shearing just came in the mail today. 

You know, I just HATE it when he does that. I don't care if he IS blind!

I have 13. (Yikes!! Better get another to get off that number)

It seems like I have more. To thoroughly listen to my 13, it would take me about a month, maybe two.

[LAL]

Voted 2nd last category like almost everyone else.

I suspect jazzbo may have them all.

[Spontooneous]

Crossed the 20 threshold last year, and ain't no goin' back now.

[Big Al]

As the lone voter in the "one" category, I can tell that I am such an amateur. B-)

[Brad]

Wow, Brad, you must already have YOUR Woody!

Yup, got it on Monday. It's great so far and great sound. I even like the singing.

[RDK]

Are we counting both Mosaic and Mosaic Select sets? Also, are we counting non-boxed "sets" or CDRs of oop sets? B-)

Count me in the 20+ category. Depending on the "parameters," I may be able to double that number...

[Free For All]

Sure, let's add Selects to the total. The procurement of Selects requires a mindset as obsessed and "committed" as that which seeks out the larger Mosaics, if not quite at the financial commitment level.

Of course, in that case my total approaches 40. Still not a contender in the overall Mosaic pissing contest, though.

[Peter Johnson]

Zero, zilch, none, nada. Don't like box sets, never have. I prefer the individual albums.

[Jazzmoose]

I thought it was getting out of hand at 17, but I guess I'm alright. At least in this crowd...

[brownie]

I was an early convert in the Mosaic faith!
The box total count is around 50 now.

[Tony Pusey]

33,excluding selects, I have them all except the last 2....
and I sure wish Shearing would come in my mail...

[doubleM]

Well, I put down 16-20, but that was before I read that selects counted. I have 20+. I love 'em all like they were my children. OK, maybe that's too extreme. But I do value them highly.

[Alfred]

60+!

[Claude]

You guys are addicted to those black boxes

I have over 2000 CDs, but only 8 Mosaic sets

[sidewinder]

60+!

I'll second that..

(Lots of black boxes over here in Europe by the looks of things..)

[king ubu]

Another 20+ vote. I have 30+, I think. No selects, so far. Too lazy to count them.

ubu

[tjobbe]

none... although roughly 1000 CD's now on shelf

I hope that doensn't disqualify me ...

Cheers, Tjobbe

[Brad]

If you throw in Selects I'm approaching 50 plus.

I wonder if the gurus at Mosaic are reading this.

[jazzbo]

I don't have them all. Been on a moratorium of that kind of spending most of this year, and I have ignored a lot of the Selects because I have the material and in the case of say the Monchur not my favorite stuff. . . .

I have quite a lot of them though, and in the case of the early sets I don't have them but have the material elsewhere.
