Sony/Legacy sets on "Music on CD"
romualdo replied to Fer Urbina's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Isn't the correct LP master (tk #12) on the 1991 Euro CD (469140-2) of SST while it's tk #1 on the US 1999 (65568) disc plus the box set -
not to forget the german scene (I was very into) '73 alumni - Can (Future Days), Faust (Faust IV & Faust Tapes), Kraftwerk (Ralph & Florian), Neu (Neu 2)

Which Box Sets do You Regret Buying, and Why?
romualdo replied to northwood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I'm currently digitalising (what I don't already have on CD) the three Mosaic Commodore boxes (66 LPs) - done about thirty hours so far Only did Hackett & Teagarden this week - great stuff there! -
also my fav Zappa "period" - will definitely go for this also considering the recent 6CD "Erie" set

what a crock!!! I've been a small animal veterinarian for over 35 years & have seen dogs older than this, particularly Australian Cattle Dogs -
Thanks - BTW, Zack is not even mentioned in Leonard Feathers Encyclopaedia of Jazz Musicians (first edition)

I've recently scored the three Commodore Mosaic boxes & am gradually mining the lode & digitalising what I already don't have on CD. Came across George Zack who recorded most of his short lived output at Commodore (7 sessions & a total of 50 tracks, just under two & a half hours of outstanding Chicago "Barrel-House" duos (mostly with Wettling and some with Danny Alvin). He was one of Gabler's favourites according to the booklet notes - unfortunately he was a chronic alcoholic & spent most of the recording sessions juiced & wasn't able to play in groups (there was the disasterous Wild Bill Davison session where Dick Cary had to sub for him - he only recorded on a couple of the titles). His last session was in 1951 (Jimmy James in Chicago), then he disappeared I presume due to his affliction he didn't see out his later years?

hoping that one day we'll get the Ra Transition release redone with the extra tracks that were on the acetate found a few years back

Yep, I have many of those but would welcome a digital (CD) set I've got the more simplified, much less ornate (& cheaper) european version -

Yes, I've got a number of releases piled up for me & just waiting on the latest Harriott vinyl release (delayed) to add to the haul Also the Rhythm & Blues label is releasing a Harriott at the BBC (3 sessions) CD - maybe this has already been mentioned https://rhythmandbluesrecords.co.uk/?product=joe-harriott-quintet-the-rakes-progress-at-the-bbc The Amalgam release "Prayer For Peace" is a stunner. Have you heard of the UK label "Hi4Head" - I bought a couple Watts/Amalgam CDs from them - rereleases from the Ogun catalogue (Closer to You & Cynosure) with unreleased material from the same sessions

huge amount of coverage in Australia today - she's an icon here especially wrt her extramusical pursuits - established a cancer clinic here in 2014 She was actually born in the UK then returned in the late 60s to record her early "country orientated" material. RIP Olivia

Mosaic's Black and White label box set
romualdo replied to ghost of miles's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
received this one liner email from Mosaic this morning - no other explanatory text "https://a1.asendiausa.com/tracking/ 50S6BZZQ94" again, that number goes nowhere (it never did right from the start) - below is the response I get when inserting the tracking number into Ascendia Your Order Information Has Not Yet Made It To Our System But We Will Show Updates Once It Does! Check Back Soon!
