kh1958 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Are these the discs, without the booklet and large box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjobbe Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Those Universal-Mosaic's are the nearly identical to the original ones incl box and booklet but they do not carry a unique number and are boxes that Universal sells on their own responsibility.

djcavanagh Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 They also seem to have the Monk (€50), Wes Montgomery (€40) and Bill Evans (€45) Riverside boxes incredibly cheap (although they don't seem to currently have tehm in stock). Does anyone know if these are the 12x12 size boxes or just the slipcase ones that seem to be sold in some places in Europe? I am assuming the latter given the price. Even so... They also seem to have some OJC cds at €2.99 but finding them means going through each artist individually unfortunately. I have no idea whether or not these are in stock though.

tjobbe Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 (edited) I saw those three boxes in their online listing. Within the printed catalogue I haven't found those as well none of those OJC's so maybe they place them in stock later on as sell out of the ZYX stock.

Alfred Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Sorry for misusing your thread: €6.99 for Chesky CDs is a good price too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Hawkins Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I don't know about now, but I bought those Riversides from them a while back and they were the simple slipcases, not the 12*12 boxes. But, given it's about the music, GET'EM!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, given it's about the music, GET'EM!!!!!!!!!! Thanks. I'd come to the same conclusion given that you can get three for the price of one but will have to wait and see if they come back in stock.

tjobbe Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 (edited) I do suspect those will be the 12*12 (but don't sue me if they aren't ) as I believe those OJC stuff being the rest of the Fantasy stock from the previous German distributor ZYX. The boxes they have sold some years ago where older ones, but ZYX recently sold the US ones according to their WebSite.... Cheers, Tjobbe EDIT: 2001 might have skipped to add those to the current catalogue because of legal issues due to the distributor contract Fantasy had should terminate end of 2005 so maybe they will add them in January...will be another bad day for my bank account Edited December 29, 2005 by tjobbe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garthsj Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Interesting .. I just did the "math" on ordering the Basie set, and it comes out to $85.00 or $97.00 depending on the postage that you choose. It is worth it, I wonder, considering that most Mosaics seem to hold their prices on the aftermarket when you go to that big jam session in the sky? I do suspect those will be the 12*12 (but don't sue me if they aren't ) as I believe those OJC stuff being the rest of the Fantasy stock from the previous German distributor ZYX.

tranemonk Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 guess I still didn't get my question answered in the affirmative... (which was... Is there a US Distributor selling the European Roy Eldridge Mosaic.... and at what price...?) I will take that to assume that the answer (that we know of) is no....

Bluerein Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 and we all are wondering why Mosaic has to lay off staff and cut costs otherwise and has to raise prices....... If we all would order them directly at Mosaic this might not be necesary. But I know this is utopia. A healthy and great jazzy 2006 for all at Organissimo and you families.

tranemonk Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Did they really lay off staff???? uh oh.... I only bought one European edition (out of 30+ Mosaics)... but if that's true.... I'll stick to their website then.... and we all are wondering why Mosaic has to lay off staff and cut costs otherwise and has to raise prices.......

ejp626 Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 My thoughts are that they had to agree to supply a certain number of these European Mosaics to get the Verve licensing (they are mostly if not all Verve material). So that was a business decision on Mosaic's part. That said, one probably should not try to import them back into the US. I would definitely order more from Mosaic directly if there was a way to avoid customs. Overseas shipping prices are bad enough, but customs charges push almost all Mosaic sets beyond my willingness to pay threshold. Thus, I am extremely glad to see the European Mosaics. This is probably the way I'll get the Dizzy set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron S Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 It still seems to me that the Universal-distributed Farlow Moasic is unique among these sets in its widespread availablity in the US through large, "legitimate" retailers at a low price over a long period of time. I've suspected for a while that there's a story behind that, but so far haven't seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I understand the comment... Does it have something to do with the LP ("Swing Guitars") that I'm using for an avatar? Those were of course three different sessions (the Farlow tracks are also on the original Norgran, "The Tal Farlow Album"). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim R Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Ah, I hadn't noticed that (surprised it wasn't mentioned sooner). Whoever wrote the description must have looked at the inclusion of "Swing Guitars" in Tal's discography, and made an ASSumption they shouldn't have made.

tjobbe Posted January 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Just a quick updater on 2001: as suspected those Fantasy disc-set and individual OJC etc are now dropping in one by one... Currently already available already: Art Pepper 16CD Galaxy Set 50€ Monk Complete Riverside Set 50€ Wes M. complete Riverside Set 40€ some crappy 20Bit OJC for 3€, some regular remasters for 4€ and some 2CD sets for 5€ Cheers, Tjobbe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejp626 Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Monk Complete Riverside Set 50€ Wes M. complete Riverside Set 40€ Cheers, Tjobbe Wow is right. I've had the Monk forever - it was my first jazz box set. I think I paid $250 or so for it within a year of its coming out. But at this price I could get it for a really good friend. I think I will get the Montgomery as well. I've been slowly downloading the box set off emusic, but obviously the sound is going to be a lot better on CD, plus the booklet, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
