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....

Can we stick this discussion to 1 thread????

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...

Onto the 2nd spin of Charles Tolliver Disc 3!!!! and Disc 2!

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!!! )

Sonny Stitt Disc 5.... I'm beginning to think this is an underrated set.. by the very few mentions of it on this board...

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????

Uh Oh... !! They yanked it off the website.... No more future projects???

Fortunately... this is one I can pass up!!!!

Just got the Email... the Mulligan and Bechet are scheduled to go out within 24 hours.. which means I'll get it today or Monday...

Go for the Elvin 1st... Sonny Stitt 2nd....

I meant the Last Chance.... Category...

whatever it was is no longer "Running Low"... just updated on the Website...

Just sent the following email off to Mosaic.... whaddya thinK? hey there.. How about the Complete Verve/Roulette/Capitol Recordings of Betty Carter. I know some of these titles are still in print and were released in the late 80s/early 90s but this is a compelling set for a few reasons.... 1. She did not have a tremendous number of sessions (and this 6-8 CD set) would represent a major portion of her career. 2. She was (at the time) and still is a tremendously underrated rated musician. 3. Once these final existing Cd's disappear from record shelves no one is going to reissue them. 4. With the popularity of the jazz vocalist today (good and bad)... she represented the one of the last great "throwbacks" if you will. 5. It will do well with the hardcore (me) Mosaic fan base.... So please let me know if thats a good possibility..... And any chance.... we'll get some a Select set of unreleased live Michel Petrucciani??? thanks

Bummer... which means that the Oliver Nelson... due out in February is more like March.....

mulligan Concert Jazz Band Disc 3....

have we finally determined... on that upcoming dizzy set... What is currently in print??? I know that "An Electrifying Evening with Dizzy Gillespie" is still in print??? Others??

Mulligan Concert Jazz Band - Disc 2...

don't know but if there is ... that would be a heckuva set....

Sonny Stitt - Disc 7.... I'm beginning to feeel like I need to plug this set a little more....

Horace Parlan Disc 3... Wadin'... a great way to start this set.... and there's a bottle of red wine airing and waiting for me... So at the end of disc 3... comes dinner... wine... and disc 4.... I NEEDED this after 2 days with my infant daughter who's sneezed, coughed and wiped her runny nose on every article of clothing I own.... Those of you with kids - KNOW what I'm talking about!!!!

so each will have 1 disc... or did they record together???

makes me pretty glad I pre-ordered....
