sidewinder Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 (edited) Another for the 'Mulligan' Concert Band box (I recommend the Tal Farlow Concert Band Mosaic as well ). Being in the midst of digesting the Basie, Eldridge and Jazztet boxes of late I would say that Mosaic are on a huge roll at the moment and really coming up with the goods, big time. It will be next year before I can think of going near that Columbia Small Group box. The Kid Ory and the Charles Tolliver are still sailing on their way to me (in a pea-green boat perhaps?) and I'm looking forward to them immensely. All in all a 'vintage' Mosaic year.

tranemonk Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Hey Ron... I didn't know you got the Concert Jazz box??? Cool... If it's got your seal of approval.... Thanks!!! Are u getting the Mulligan Songbook select? It ultimately came down to the Mulligan and Shank vs. Max Roach set... (I've got a lot of Roachie...) TM: Mulligan CJB box=Fantastic. 'Nuff said. ← Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron S Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Are u getting the Mulligan Songbook select? Absolutely. I love Jeru. But I'm not sure when I'll get it. Too many other older Mosaics on my wish list. Not to mention lots of other CD's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Goren. Posted November 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 I'm still debating: Buddy Rich or Columbia Small Group Swing. Eventually I'll order both… Tough life... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Do the Rich... I seem to be the only one on the board who bought and does NOT like the Columbia Swing Sessions....

Ron S Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 I seem to be the only one on the board who bought and does NOT like the Columbia Swing Sessions.... . . . . and if that doesn't make you buy that set, nothing will.

ejp626 Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I finally pulled the trigger on the JJ Johnson Small Groups (didn't want to be the only one here without it when they moved it to the Sold Out list), the Columbia Small Group Swing Sessions, Pepper Select and Johnny Richards Select. (What with shipping and customs, etc. it only seems to make sense to get the big orders. Well, it will probably show up just before Christmas, appropriately enough.)

Fran Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I keep waiting - then giving in and saying HELL they'll never bring out the gigantic Columbia/ Okeh/ Vocalion Basie - But just like the greatest thing so far - The Herman Columbias - I KNOW they will hit us eventually with the 12 or 14 ????? CD Basie and by that time I will have spent my $$$$$ on the Richards (which I did - Gladly) the Slack (great) and in the mean time the 50's Goodman's. I'd accept a trim Select of Les Brown Capitols too if they wish to issue one. Yes I am a Big Band guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjazz Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I'll probably get the Sidney Bechet and Andrew Hill Selects. (maybe the TRIOs too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 Farmer/Golson looks interesting to me. Not only is that a big set, but it looks like Mosaic has high hopes with their edition of 10000. Also need to get the Mulligan. Whew! ... for a moment I thougt I missed something.... then remembered I already have the JJJ on vinyl...and that was along time ago. These sets do stay around for awhile don't they.

Alfred Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 The Spann/Hopkins is up next for me. For a 'Buy it now'-price of $50 I couldn't resist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 (edited) I'm leaning toward one that I've heard a LOT of mixed reviews about ... Joe Pass.... I held off for a long time for this one.... I just seem to getting into him a little more this time around... Who's got this set??? Reviews?? Hey Ron S... GEETAH man.... How do you like this one compared to the Farlow, Johnny Smith???? Edited December 20, 2005 by tranemonk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it a lot. Haven't listened to it in a while, but remember it comparing very favorably with Farlow and Smith. Perhaps even a bit more swingin'. If you're into jazz guitar, you can't go wrong with Pass. Of course, even at only 5 discs, it's gonna cost you more than the Farlow did.

LAL Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Mosaic is not getting my money for at least the next 6 months... But when they do, it's going to be for the Basie and Sarah Vaughan sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 I'm sure it's just a temp glitch... but for those of who you wanted to use your Xmas/Hanukkah/Kwannza/Winter Solistice gift cards for either the Mulligan or Bechet Selects... You might have to wait a bit as they are not on the website... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dova Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Got the Buddy Rich Set: Mostly stuff that has not surfaced on cd before and the sound mastering is incredible. The musicians are first rate and the drum solos when they happen are not offensive. Only listenened to disc 1 so far but this stuff swings like crazy. Recommended! Merry Christmas everyone!

tranemonk Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Damn.. I hate it when you divulge my trade secrets ... Since you've foiled my ebay scheme ... I've decided to let Mosaic have some of the remaining 9,998 sets... In fact... I'm in such a holiday mood... I even let them put it back up on their website with sound samples... http://mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=MS-021 http://mosaicrecords.com/prodinfo.asp?number=MS-022 Who said I wasn't in the holiday spirit???
