since we're on the 22nd year of the company... and I'm sure they've done better than they could even dream... Where will this lead??? What will it/they be in 2025???? Which box sets will we be seeing??? I for one... suspect similar to the Leibman/Barach, Tolliver sets... they will start focusing more and more on unreleased live stuff.... (How about a live unreleased Stanley Turrentine set??? What do you think??? And I'm sure this thread will eventually get hijacked toward the inevitable "Best of.... Gomer Pyle/The REALLY Complete Bitches Brew thread again.... but in the inital phase of this thread, I am curious what you SERIOUSLY think will happen to the company????

Jackie McLean... and I would never get rid of Mosaics...

Wow... if we can pull this off.. this may be a minor miracle.... Hmm..... Mine, too. They're showing the "regular price" now as $97.89. I think we got ourselves a DEAL! ←

I'm not entirely sure I get this rant... but... there's been a long discussion about the newer/cheaper (perhaps better for your purposes) longbox packaging... try here... http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21167 and here.. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=9596 I have several Miles boxes and both the spine version and the longbox... I just recently donated my single Miles/Trane CDs and got the longbox because of very, very good prices.... If it's bugging you that much, return it and buy the longbox version... I got mine over here... less than $9 a CD.... http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?pa...&prod_id=712335 hope that helps...

thanks!!!!

would someone be so kind to post the Count Basie Studio Roulette Recordings Discography??? (the CD Version) I have much of the session info but it's incomplete and I have no song titles... thanks.

Hey.. it was either give it to Mosaic or Uncle Sam.... (Just Kidding.... if anyone on the board works for the IRS..... ) You're pathetic. ←

Hank Mobley.. was on the fence... but decided to bite the bullet before he went the way of Donald Byrd and Pepper Adams... Resurrected in e-bay land...

Luigi.. why... I have no idea... just kinda came to my mind....

Have to say I cheated... I called them and begged to take my pre-order... I've actually called and placed an order for that ever elusive, found in a dead guy's closet, acetate Diz, Miles, Trane, Monk, McCoy, Lee Morgan, Oscar Peterson, Art Blakey jam session... I was even told there was only 2 left... (Never even made it to last chance... !!!! ) They're already taking preorders for those??? DAMN! I wonder if they'd take my preorder for that Quartet Out set they haven't even thought of yet? ←

I'm sure this has been covered before... and I know a little about the European vs. US vs. other countries (Spain) licensing issues but here's my story and question... A friend gave me the 4CD Proper Box... "Roy Eldridge - Little Jazz Trumpet Giant." Disc 4 is entitled "Dale's Wail." When the Mosaic box came out, I was tempted to order it and actually had ordered it before I looked carefully at the Proper Box and the Mosaic discography. Mosaic's set... two sessions (or so) comprise "Dale's Wal;" with the following from their website.. "(D) THE ROY ELDRIDGE QUINTET: Roy Eldridge (tp), Oscar Peterson (org), Barney Kessel (g), Ray Brown (b), Jo Jones (d). Fulton Studios, NYC, April 23, 1953 1222-1 Love For Sale Clef 89056 1223-5 Dale’s Wail - 1224-3 The Man I Love Clef (Au) CL011 (45) 1225-2 Oscar’s Arrangement - 1223-10 Dale’s Wail (alt) previously unissued 1223-12 Dale’s Wail (alt) previously unissued 1223-13 Dale’s Wail (alt) previously unissued Note: All issued titles on Clef EPC200, MGC150, MGC705, Verve MGV8089. Take 13 of Dale’s Wail was originally chosen as the master take, but take 5 was ultimately used for release. The alternate takes of Dale's Wail were recorded at the end of the session. _____________________________________________________________________________ (E) THE ROY ELDRIDGE QUINTET: Roy Eldridge (tp), Oscar Peterson (p), Herb Ellis (g), Ray Brown (b), Alvin Stoller (d). Radio Recorders, LA, December 10, 1953 1379-6 Willow Weep For Me Clef 89110 1380-2 Somebody Loves Me - 1381-1 When Your Lover Has Gone Clef 89123 1382-8 When It’s Sleepy Time Down South Clef 89116 1382-9 When It’s Sleepy Time Down South (alt) previously unissued 1383-1 Feeling A Draft 1384-2 Don’t Blame Me 1385-3 Echoes Of Harlem Clef 89116 1385-4 Echoes Of Harlem (10” LP master) 1386-3 I Can’t Get Started Clef 89123 Note: For 1384, discographies and Verve files list take –1, which is actually a false start, as the master. All titles (except 1382-9 & 1385-3) issued on Clef MGC162 All titles (except 1382-9 & 1385-4) issued on Clef MGC705, Verve MGV8089" When I found this out... I cancelled my Mosaic order... (since I hate having doubles and had concerns that there was more duplication than that one session.... ) I'm assuming that Mosaic has the "legitmate" rights to this? I'm also assuming that the Mosaic sound is way better than the Proper? How can this happen? Why doesn't Cuscuna go after these guys? Should I ditch the Proper box and get the Mosaic??? Why??? thanks... And how often does this happen? Am I the 1st one to notice this?

Ah... sidewinder.. but that's the beauty of the pre-order.... pay now... forget about ... wait for several months until the set comes out.... and it gets delayed a month... and then just went it arrives in the mail... a NEW "must-have" set is announced and ready for pre-order..... hmmmmm..... Now I know why my checkbook never gets balanced.... (afraid to look...)

they never did a LP version of the Blackhawk Live set, did they????

I'm 1000% with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Preordered the Jazz Crusaders a long time ago... Likely to get the Buddy Rich for a b-day present.. the big FOUR-0 !!!!! And already pre-ordered the PJ Trio and Tolliver Selects...

have we figured out why the pricing scheme is so far apart??? $40 vs. $100... doesn't seem to make sense... (not that I'm complaining!!!! Got my order at CDU...in )

Hey Ron... How did you get here from over so fast at aaj..../jcorner... Did you teleport or something??? Or do you know something about this INTERNET that we don't????? "Record" may technically still be correct since a CD is, in fact, a RECORDing. ←

don't even go there Man... I'm still pissed about having to return my Dexter Manhattan Symphonie - since I didn't know about that bullshit copy system... They need to allow extra time to copy-protect those suckers ... ←

the preordered cost at cduniverse is like $39.19.. not sure why Amazon and other sites are charging triple.... but I preordered mine... locked in the price at cdu.... Great deal to me!!!!!!!!!!!!

No didn't.... When did it air????

Absolutely.... thanks again... Hey PM me...I've got a thank you for you.... (seriously)... . . . especially at the price you paid for the Farlow. ←

never been a huge Cannonball guy... but I ordered Money in the Pocket.. just to hear that live version of Fidder on the Roof....

Johnny Smith... Disc 5... liking it better the 2nd time around....Still 2nd to the Farlow.... but enjoyable nonetheless....

Just about every damn website is like..."backordered"... 2-5 weeks... Guess the NY Times article did it's job... Can anybody get this? Not sure when (or from where) I'll get my copy.... any suggestions?

thanks... but we've been talking about this for awhile.... http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=20913
