Well apparently the sale was a hit. I placed my order a week ago and still haven't even been charged yet. The website states: Due to the popularity of the sale, we sold out of some titles. More are on the way so please allow up to 3 weeks for processing!

David, Moffet, & Ornette/Sound. It mostly concerns the Coleman trio recording the Who's Crazy soundtrack material. A very fascinating watch. It's coupled with another short film about Roland Kirk and John Cage. Available here: http://www.amazon.com/Ornette-Coleman-Trio-Featuring-Roland/dp/B0002SLYMS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1297784223&sr=1-1

An impeccable set of music.

Roots & Herbs it is! PM me your shipping info and I'll put the disc out in the mail.

Nope. I don't care if it's an RVG or earlier. Like I said, the only Blakey stuff I have is the Birdland dates, Moanin' and Mosaic. Other than that, I'm open.

I just scored an LP copy of the Mosaic box that contains this material, so this CD is reduntant. I could sell it, but I figure I'll make it more interesting and offer it for trade since I'll just use the money to buy something else anyways. Also, the disc is currently going for about $3-4 on Amazon, so I'm not looking for much. A spare RVG or other Blue Note (or umbrella label) CD will do. Particularly, I'm looking to fill holes in my Art Blakey, Wayne Shorter and Grant Green collections. As far as they go, I only have: A Night at Birdland, Moanin', Mosaic, Idle Moments, Quartets w/ Sonny Clark, Green Street, Speak No Evil, Night Dreamer, Ju-Ju, The Soothsayer so I'm open to just about any other titles. Also interested in early BN Jackie McLean & the like. As I said, I'm open.

Bump for price reduction.

After hearing the stories, I'll just bide my time. It sounds like the seller is legit.

Cool. I'm kicking myself for not taking it at that price (or lower?) from Columbia House in the waning days.

If anyone's in the market for a new Mosaic, there are dozens listed on ebay right now and nearly all have low starting bids. Some rare ones, too: Lang/Venuti, Phillips/Ventura, the 3 single LP sets, James/Krupa, Jazz Piano Moods, etc. I'm hoping that this will flood the market a bit and I can pick one up for a deal. link: http://music.shop.ebay.com/Music-/11233/i.html?LH_Auction=1&_trkparms=65%253A12%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1%257C72%253A4845&rt=nc&_nkw=mosaic&_catref=1&_dmpt=Music_CDs&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1513&_pgn=3

I have yet to receive mine. Ordered Jan. 24th. Hopefully in the next couple days?

Cool, thanks.

3-disc set. Discs are in perfect condition and the outer box is in good condition. It does not include the booklet, but all the discographical info in contained in the CD liners. Price is $25 shipped to anywhere in the US. I'll ship international for cost.

Quartet (Mestre) 2008 is now available: http://www.jazzloft.com/p-53588-quartet-mestre-2008.aspx

I took advantage, as I'd been eyeing these cutouts around the 'net for some time. Definitely the best price you can get! Shipping was $4.79 for the 10 discs. I already had the Ortega, To Ornette, the Grossman and the Mehta/Lovens duos, all of which I'd recommend. I picked up: Barcelona Series - Sven-Ake Johansson (Hatology) L'Heure Bleue - Franz Koglmann (Hatology) Four And Five - Jon Lloyd (Hatology) Out Right Now - Joe Maneri (Hatology) Even The Sounds Shine - Myra Melford (Hatology) Filigree - Lauren Newton (Hatology) The Roots of the Moment - Pauline Oliveros (Hatology) By The Law of Music - Matthew Shipp (Hatology) Proklamation / Farewell to Sweden - Per Henrik Wallin (Hatology) Phonolith - Bernd Konrad (Hatology) I take an interest in anything the label puts out, so I'm excited to hear these.

Remove the period from the end of the link.

I'm currently on day 15 waiting for the Oscar Peterson Mosaic.

Good to hear. Enjoy!

PM on We See.

Got the discs yesterday, thanks!

Got that one coming in the mail to me right now. I very much look forward to hearing it.

Maybe just the quintet records on a Select? The two Jazzland titles, Southern Horizons and Free Form followed by the 3 Columbias. Sounds more reasonable, but does Mosaic have access to Jazzland, which is owned by Concord? Just the three Columbia quintet albums would make for a very brief set-- probably too brief by Mosaic's standards, but I'd shell out for it anyways.

This reminds me I need to grab a copy of the LP reissue of Amalgam's Prayer For Peace, which is also limited to 500 copies. Different label, of course.

Thanks for the heads up.

On the flipside, the Don Pullen, Dexter Gordon and Pacific Jazz Piano Trios are trending lower. I have the PJ one, but do still need the Gordon and Pullen. Those two have been sitting around $60, which I feel is more or less fair.
