if anyone else is looking for this set there is a sealed copy on Amazon US for 49.99 http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000EQH2Q0/ref=sr_1_2_np_1_main_olp?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1401693895&sr=1-2&condition=new

Not a major but Peckin' Time is included in the Mosaic set. The Mosaic is indeed great. Amen to that!!

I've ordered the Monk "It Club" LP set - had my eye on this for a while now

Wonderful slice of jazz history & genealogy - love the pic of "younger" Duke Didn't realise there was a US version of the show - we get the UK production here in Australia

Any comments on his 2 Revelation LPs, "That's Him & This Is New" (trio) & "Taurus" (sextet), 1969 & 1973 respectively These haven't made it to CD - maybe we should convince Jonathan Horwich to give them a digital release

He plays on a previously unreleased 64 Pacific Jazz session as part of the Joe Pass Quartet with Bill Perkins added (Pass Mosaic set)

wow!! what a shock I only viewed the movie last week (had known about it for some time though) & was in tears by the end of it As has been previously mentioned he was quite popular here in Australia (probably not as big as SA) - I think he might have charted both of his LPs sold well in Australia, even into the 80s Actually, this last weekend I was with a group of friends & the movie was discussed - two of the group (of 8) had owned the album (Cold Fact)

All titles on the LP were live except for "Honeysuckle Rose" which had fake applause overdubbed by Teo Macero & listed as live at the Village Gate This was actually from a trio studio date (March 2, 1965). This take (#2) has only ever been released on this LP (plus a euro CD). An alternate take (#1) from the same session was released on the 3CD "Columbia Years 62-68" set. Also, "Evidence" was listed as being from the Tokyo, Japan 63 concert (on the LP & earlier discographies) but other discographies list it as being recorded at the Philharmonic Hall with the Big Band in 1963 - I think it was the former Anyone with an original LP that can have a listen - is it a quartet or Big Band? http://www.discogs.com/Thelonious-Monk-Misterioso-Recorded-On-Tour/release/5556263

Many thanks

Firstly, is anybody in possession of an earlier CD release of Betty Roche's "Take The "A" Train" There were 2 previously unreleased alternate takes (actually 3) listed as "Go Away Blues" included on the CD The recent Japanese Solid release has 2 alternates (plus a 45 sec breakdown) of "I Just Got The Message, Baby" instead of the above I'm wondering if "Go Away Blues" is actually "I Just Got The Message, Baby" & has been mislabelled on these earlier CDs I'd appreciate someone who has a copy having a listen for me & reporting back -> will help to modify/correct the Lord Discography Secondly, "Summertime" has been listed as being part of this session but has only (AFAIK) been released a the flip side to Bethlehem 45 11054 (a side "I Just Got The Message, Baby") I'm wondering if this version of "Summertime" is they same one that is on the Porgy & Bess LP (Roche vo & Howard McGhee tp) & not part of this session (Conte Candoli was on tp) Any Bethlehem single collectors out there that could have a listen to the 45 or digitalise the track & send me an MP3 - either would be greatly appreciated

listening to the disc while burning it for me?

oh yeah!!!

Pete your books finally reached Australian shores last week via Florida All in lovely condition Thanks again

for preorders, does Mosaic charge us upfront or is the charge made when the item is available/shipped I've never preordered before

I ended up getting most of the box via the individual CD releases over the years - happy with that

Ok - understood, thnx. So the "complete" takes that are out are unauthorized / illegal / whatever!?! I've never seen more that the 12 I have. Oops - probably shouldn't even say that. No problems talking about these as they were officially released in 1994 by Verve/Polygram as by Lee Konitz "Live At The Half Note" (2CD) The Andorrans later ripped this off with their own release

Jonathan have sent the 6 tracks as separate MP3 files to you - enjoy!!

except for the tapes (Decca Studios, Dec 59) that were sent to Alfred Lion for a potential Blue Note release (didn't happen) -> they were found (2008) by Michael Cuscuna in Alfred Lion's home collection & released on Candid (Tubby's New Groove - CD 79554) The liner notes to this CD are a good read & the SQ of the music is great

you'll keep getting them (regularly) if you buy from them - remind me of the True Blue catalogues of past

Jonathan - I have Hum Dono in MP3 format (needle drop) - can send it to you How's the Tapscott coming along? Like your comment on the WM solo tapes - lethal weapons, eh!!

I've managed to accumulate 11 of the 12 discs to Mosaic 170 (over the past few years) just missing Disc 2 plus the booklet (small) for the 2nd CD case (discs 5-8) Mosaic still has copies of the large booklet (but not small ones) so I'll get that from them Anyone out there with a spare of Disc 2 or booklet for V-VIII (even a scanned PDF file would be greatly appreciated) This is really pushing it, but any chance of a spare box in someone's possession

Jazz Messengers (Spain) have it in stock for 18,14 euros http://www.jazzmessengers.com/en/search?search_query=horace+tapscott&search_s=send

RIP Fred Ho - too young to go

Drool, Drool !! only £35 for a 3 day pass pity I live at the other end & bottom of the world I've been enjoying the Not Two 5CD set "Mad Dogs" - various combinations of the Barry Guy New Orchestra
