ghost of miles Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 And I want a whole lot of other stuff, but the main thing now is the survival of Mosaic... Are they on shaky ground right now? I mean, I know they've never been sitting around counting huge piles of cash... but hadn't heard that they might be in any trouble.

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 I suppose, if sales are down, that's not going to look too good to the new owners of EMI, who have a half share in Mosaic. Hence the urgency. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Ah--I just read this post. So this means buying a Mosaic is not a selfish act of acquisition, but rather service in a noble cause... MG, you should pull the trigger on that Jazztet set. It's quite a stunning collection of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Re: a George Russell Select, I hope it happens. I have a cd-r of KANSAS CITY but would love to see all of that material bundled together (including SPACE AGE and NY NY). I'll ask David Baker again about the Decca sessions...I'm pretty sure he's said there's more than what's on the LPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG Well, what if we all pitched in and got it for you as a belated birthday present? Seriously, if Mosaic needs to up their sales I may buy a couple sets as presents for friends this year. I already have everything they've put out, save for the second Andrew Hill Select, and I'll be picking that one up pretty soon... trying to hold off till the Hampton box comes out.

And I've got 10 CDs snarled up in apostal strike at present. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
