  1. Records By Mail (not Discogs) Data Breach

    in Miscellaneous - Non-Political

    RBM sells on Discogs but I can't find anything to suggest they're the same entity.

    And as I see it Discogs is a marketplace rather than seller and I can see no reason why they would hold financial details. All transactions are carried out with individual sellers not Discogs per se.

    Happy to be proved wrong by someone more knowledgeable.

    Correct, Discogs is a marketplace that holds no financial details. The transactions are done directly with the sellers, not Discogs. The title of this thread is incorrect and misleading.

    Note that Discogs is mentioned as a "third party" in Records By Mail's message ("What we are doing"), and that's exactly what it is.

     

    -edit-  Just noticed that the originally incorrect thread title has been edited.

    I also think that the Point of Departure indicated that they wanted to go on recording Dolphy. they signed some important Avantgarde Artists that time. 

    Yeah, they didn´t usually do one Offs. One exception was Charlie Rouse ´s "Bossa Nova Bacchanal", this was the only Album Charlie Rouse made under his own Name for BN, same Thing Art Taylor´s Album.....

    Sheila Jordan, Sonny Red, Duke Jordan, Dodo Greene, and there were others.

     

    John Coltrane was another one with his Blue Train.

  5. Johnny Hodges Mosaics

    in Mosaic and other box sets...

    Posted · Edited by J.A.W.

    Several years ago I asked someone at Mosaic (I think it was Scott) about this and he told me they weren't allowed to release a CD-version of the first Hodges Mosaic, they could only get a license for the LP-version; it was Verve's decision, not Mosaic's.

    I think that's part of it. A few sets were "reissued" on cd not long after they came out on LP. I got the Bechet Blue Note set that way. Bought it first on LP, then when the cd set came available, I got that and gave the LP set to a library, but that's the only time I ever did that. The first sets were all LP only--Monk, Art Pepper, Clifford Brown, Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker, Tina Brooks, and Budde DeFranco/Sonny Clark.

    The Buddy DeFranco/Sonny Clark Mosaic was also released on CD by Mosaic, 4MD-117.

    That would mean lot of overlap/doubling for those that have the big RCA box

    Yes, there would be quite a bit of overlap, but the Mosaic would probably have better sound - the big RCA sounded overprocessed to me. It's been a few years since Scott said it still was on their radar, and I hope it still is and will actually be released in the near future.

    Yes, this one

    Thanks. I'd seen that one, but was somehow under the impression there'd be another, licensed release. My mistake.

    So by now, does everyone here have this CD of Marsella's trio's tribute to Hasaan?

    If not, what are you waiting for?  A phenomenal album, in tribute to a phenomenal album -- what's not to love?

    Just listened to the album on YouTube. Nice, but not quite my taste, and don't like the drums being so forward in the mix.

  23. Paul Desmond/Ed Bickert Mosaic - NOW AVAILABLE

    Probably safer to order from Mosaic direct for this one.

    I asked the same question and received this reply from Jorge on June 11th:

    Well the truth is that we are waiting for this box set, since long time ago. They ran out of it, and they are now reprinting more.

    This is why we are still waiting. But, we are doing everything we can to get it. Actually if we have any luck, we will have it here in a couple of weeks.

    We will announce it! 

     

    Just heard back from Jorge. He is expecting the Desmond set tomorrow (Wednesday 24 June), and he thinks it'll be around 165 euros - which is pretty steep I think.

    [edit] The price of the Desmond is actually just under 160 euros, which, in my opinion, is still a bit high.

    I keep checking on there and haven’t seen any sight of it yet.

    I wonder if they will ever get it, I'm beginning to have doubts... OK, there's probably been some delay due to the corona thing, but they could have had some Desmond sets by now, I guess. The 63-70 Mobley has also been missing from their site for quite a while; I jumped on that one when they did have a few copies, it was gone in the blink of an eye.
