Clunky Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 The Venuti & Lang is another I'm curious about. I doubt I have 45 minutes of music from them and I like what I have. Big jump into the deep end of the pool from that to the Mosaic. Appreciate your thoughts as you start to explore it. I'm also interested in the Lang/Venuti , I'm considering it of the Bix/Teagarden set. I dont have much from either set. I'm inclining to the Lang/Venuti as Bix is always likely to get his due in terms on releases but Lang is much less heralded. On the other hand I suspect the peaks of the Bix set may well eclipse the best of the Lang/Venuti. The filler material (of pop material and blues on the Lang/Venuti might be more interestin than the equivalent filler on the Bix set. What say you,any thoughts?

Kyo Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Got my Donaldson/Turrentine/Tolliver combo today. That and Lou's "Hot Dog" (with that cover art for the ages!), both Organissimo albums and Tony Grey's "... moving". As much as I had been looking forward to all that stuff it's the Tony Grey CD that has been stuck in my CD player all day so far. What an amazing hour of music from such a young talent (it's his solo debut!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tapscott Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 (edited) According to the Mosaic website, the Stitt is now back ordered and will be shipped in 2-3 weeks. Guess Mosaic met their goal of freeing up some shelf space (at least as far as the Stitt is concerned).

I imagine Mosaic will be having a busy day on August 31. I may buy the Pass, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess Mosaic met their goal of freeing up some shelf space (at least as far as the Stitt is concerned). I think I'm going to take this as a sign. I'm going to be on vacation during that time, so I think I'll get the Venuti/Lang instead to go with the Bix/Tram/Tea. Even "limiting" myself to 2 made it a tough decision, but I think a big chunk of 20s & 30s music ought to be a blast! Stitt joins the ever growing future purchase list instead.

kenny weir Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 I wondered about the use of footy, as well. I've nevber heard that term used outside of Australia. Has anyone? Be it grid iron, rugby league, rugby union, Australian rules, soccer (the "real" football ... ), Gaelic football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a football (soccer) forum based in Canada that i used to go on a regular basis the term was used a few times, i guess i picked it up from there. Don't remember if the posters using the expression were living in Australia or former Aussies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 (edited) I've just had an email from them saying that there's 1 week of the sale to go (ends Aug 31st) and that they now do PayPal.
