ghost of miles Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 That's great news if the Mulligan set is doing so well; didn't Cuscuna say they'd look into releasing some of the live material if this one succeeded? Hey Wesbed, the New Orleans set appears to finally be gone! Glad I got one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajf67 Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Just bought Teddy Wilson, and since I was there I thought it would somehow be wrong of me not to pick up another one too, so I added the Turrentine set. Makes sense, right? Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Just bought Teddy Wilson, and since I was there I thought it would somehow be wrong of me not to pick up another one too, so I added the Turrentine set. Makes sense, right? Right? Absolutely. I do that all the time. Especially when shopping online. For that matter I can never go into a store and buy just one CD. Always have to get two or more. I usually make a quick trip through the alphabet looking for the titles on my list (I have to make a list and keep it in my wallet, otherwise I never remember) and then I will go back and start again looking for suprises (i.e. compulsive purchases). And I prefer to do this alone, no distractions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Hmmm. Maybe one of these days in the future, I'll actually allow myself a "Mosaic budget" again...but that's after I get the collection agencies off my ass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesbed Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 (edited) The Teddy Wilson Mosaic is part CD and part LP. Is the limit of 7500 copies a total of BOTH the CD and the LP copies? I wonder how much of each? I received my copy of the Teddy Wilson Mosaic two days ago. My CD set is number 4649. If the number is an indication, and depending on the numbers used on the LP sets, it appears that '4649' is hardly close to the limit of '7500' after seven years on the Mosaic web site. --------------- I've listened to only the first disk (out of five). I enjoy the trio format since, for me, it can be difficult to acquire trio-only material. The CD remastering (by Master Addey) is great as usual. But, it's the playing of Master Teddy Wilson that makes this set come to life. Wilson plays ALL the old standard standards. His playing is lavish, refined, relaxed, comfortable, sublime, colorful, and warm. I wouldn't choose to listen to all five of the disks in a row (I don't believe there is any Mosaic Complete box that I'd want to listen to straight-through). However, the 75 minute duration of Disk One does not grow boring or fatiguing. Wilson just keeps moving along, standard after standard, his trio popping and bouncing, and continues to keep the listener's interest.

Shrdlu Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 That's great news if the Mulligan set is doing so well; didn't Cuscuna say they'd look into releasing some of the live material if this one succeeded? Does anyone have any definite details about which selections, dates and cities would be included? I think it was said that this set would NOT include the material recorded in Paris, Zurich and Newport, all already available. The "problem" with such a set is that it would largely consist of a lot of "alternate takes" of the (by now) very familiar repertoire from the 1960 live dates that we already have. I wonder how much demand there would be for this. The plus side is that the performances and arrangements deliberately left room for on-the-spot variations and riffs, etc., and Mulligan was a very inventive improviser, so that each version of any given piece is different from all others, to some extent or other. Not all of the soloists, however, were as capable as Gerry of coming up with fresh ideas all the time. Quill, and the trumpeters (except for Clark Terry, who wasn't on the tour) repeat themselves a lot. Can't have too much Zoot, though!

Looks like this consignment is on a slow boat to China I used to ask for surface, but then made the discovery that it was easier for the parcels to slip through customs without VAT being added if going airmail. (At least sometimes) Now, I usually receive the CDs before the Mosiac invoices arrives. Edited October 13, 2004 by andersf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Usually there's no problem Anders - the single Mosaics come by air via the 'small packet' route within the week. The complications come when you add the weight of an LP set ! Just checked Mosaic's site BTW and it looks like the 'Kenton Presents' is now officially OOP. Cue for Procrastinator piccie?

LAL Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 Not on Last Chance or Running Low, but the Hank Mobley set seems to have been backordered for quite some time. A friend tried ordering a set about 3 weeks ago but was told this would only be available in 2 weeks. He checked again yesterday and Mosaic said they'll only ship this in 3 weeks. Hope the set's not timed out and this is merely a delay in the printing of the latest batch of Mobleys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
