I think Montara is great and I like Natural Illusions more than most people on this forum. Linger Lane - I didn't like much. I'll have to give it another shot.

I ordered the set within minutes of receiving the email. I have the individual CDs and some of it on original LP but it will be great to have it all with consistent mastering. I know 7 CDs is Mosaic's sweet spot but I would've still been in if it was 9CDs and covered 1963-1971 and included Now! and Head On. I believe the only sessions to not get the Mosaic treatment across the two boxes are the aforementioned Now! and Head On, as well as Natural Illusions, Montreux, Linger Lane and Montara.

I recall you posting his other two Blue Notes in this thread a few months ago and I've been meaning to listen to them since then. Finally got around to Saudade today and have the other two pulled off the shelf for tomorrow morning.

I've listened to it a few times already and like it a lot. Maybe I caught it at the right time as the warm, textural vibe of the album is a nice counterpoint to the crazy last month I've had working on a big project. I haven't given the Andre 3000 an open minded listen yet. I was a huge fan of Outkast since their first single in 1993 and Andre became one of my favourite rappers but I'm not ready to embrace his flute endeavours.
