A little late (2 days ago)... but Finished another spin of the Tolliver Disc 3... that's a good set... but I do have a question...
On Disc 3... does the band sound kinda distant??
the old fashioned.. telephone to Headquarters!!!
Okay, I give. How does one pre-order these titles? I certainly don't have any live links on the Mosaic website that would permit. Perhaps this is a conceptual/spiritual preorder.
I assume people are getting their discographical information from other sources (e.g., AllMusic, LPs owned...), since what Mosaic provides is sketchy.
Sorry.... I stand corrected.... Disc 4 has been inserted....
thank YOU
It's a requirement--can't play Disc 3 without following it up with Disc 4 (read your user's manual ).
probably 10-12 (Stitt, Blakey, Morgan, Columbia Swing, Elvin, Parlan, Anita, Sarah Vaughn, Dinah W., Farlow, Johnny Smith, Wilson, McLean... and a few more... ) AND????
So how many 5-10 cd sets have you purchased?
Yeah... and now youre going to tell me there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq....(Sorry I couldn't resist... ) But I don't think I'm completely crazy....
it DOES seem that by doing this.... they are going AGAINST/EXPANDING (choose your own term) their original focus.....
Curtis Amy Select Disc 1.... Haven't given this a spin since it came out... Didn't like it much originally... Time to see if it helps my tax preparation....
I still can't shake this bad feeling of inevitability that this means... (Sacrilegious statement...) the beginning of the end of the box set.... It's nothing more than my sense of impending doom....
I'll buy the Singles... but I'm just can't shake that feeling....
okay I caved... Just preordered the Al Cohn, Ellington, Blakey and Charles Lloyd...
I hope your right Ron.... My pessimisstic side is emerging... I hope their business plan reflects your line of thinking...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know what to make of this.... Is the subtext here.. they are getting away from our treasured 8 CD boxed sets???? I'm afraid... Although these titles sound fab... I'm nervous about the next shoe dropping...
getting the morning off to a swinging (hopefully productive) start with Stanley Turrentine Disc 4 and 5..
DAMN this is a GOOD SET! (Forgot how good!!! )
Got a positive reply from Mosaic about the Betty Carter possibility... to summarize...
"The Verve stuff and the material from her own label... might be a possibility...."
I really HOPE they do this... She deserves it!
How about some lobbying????
