Eddie Condon/Bud Freeman and Chick Webb/Ella sets arrived today. No packing issues.

Count Basie Lester Young 1936-1940.disc 2.

No but in the catalog page sets on backorder have two designations. With or without month when the set is expected back in stock. The sets with a specific month are most likely to return to the catalog. Alas the Goodman is so far without a specific month. About the Goodman set there was not so much fuss as there was about the JPJ or the Clifford Jordan sets. But for those who do not yet have the Goodman set set I hope it returns to the catalog.

The page now says ' This product is out of stock'

The Woody Herman select is gone. there are no more selects in Mosaic's catalog.

The Henry Threadgill set is now oop.

The Clifford Jordan set is now expeted back in July.

Mosaic has been working Saturday and Sunday to fullfill orders and update the website. With the JPJ and Savoy coming back to the catalogue I can still get all the sets I would like to have.

The Webb/Ella and Condon/Freeman sets comming my way. Will order the Savoy when it comes back toghether with the Dail. The JPJ as soon as it reapears.

That's still available on the Jazzmessengers site.

The Joe Pass set made a come back

I don't know if it is enough to attract new costomers but they have a Facebook page. With 2.000.000.000 others...

And at $102 an affordable set.

There might be few new converts who still might want to buy this.

Now it's gone again.

This year might get called 'The big Mosaic slaughter' Added to Running Low The Chick Webb and Ella Fitzgerald, Eddie Condon and Bud Freeman and the Woody Shaw sets. Total Running Low and Last Chance: 2 LP sets, 2 Selects, 8 big sets and one single.

False alarm it is back in the catalogue.

The boogie woogie Select is now oop. Woody Herman is the last Select.

The French CBS double LP's missed out on a number of alternate takes. The total number of tracks from 1925-1931 now owned by Sony is 97. That would fit on 4 CD's. If Universal would cooperate the 3 CD's worth of 1926-1931 Brunswick/Vocalion tracks (including the two tracks missing on the Early Ellington set) could make it a 7 CD Mosaic set. I don't know about the legal status of the 15 tracks that are neither Sony or Universal on Up-to-date, Blue Disc, Gennett and Hit Of the week. But if they are in the public domain. It could make it an 8 CD set.

Yes and the Art Farmer Single 'The time and the place' joined the running low list.

Yes on the Mosaic website. This set would to the best of my knowledge need the cooperation of Sony, Universal and Capitol (EMI?).

Columbia 1947-1952 French CBS did 5 CD's in their Jazz-o-theque series. Vol. 1 to 4 contain all 74 tracks from singels. Vol. 5 contains the Liberian suite and Masterpieces by Ellington (10 tracks). Ellington Uptown (7 tracks) is not in this series Officialy issued alternate takes: Airconditioned jungle (V-disc take), I Like the sunrise (instrumental version on V-disc) 3 cent stomp on Duke Ellington the essential collection 3 CD set Dance # 5 on Ellington Uptown Columbia 512917 2 Creole Love call on LP The world of Duke Ellington vol. 1 I love my loving lover on LP The world of Duke Ellington vol. 3 Unofficial issues: Progressive gavotte on FDC 1023 On various Up-to-date LP's a total of 45 tracks (most are also on Classics/Neatwork) And finaly there are 52 unissued takes witch have a solo discription in the New Desor A total of 195 tracks My thoughts on the 1956-1962 period. For my idealy there would be 4 boxes with each 6 original LP's as the basis with extra tracks added.

Fremeaux is the most complete. From the hot five/seven missing only I Can't Give You Anything But Love (alt. Take) [master W.401690-C] -- OKeh 8669

Sets I proposed to Mosaic at one time or another: Selection of Victor/Columbia ragtime recordings The 1920-1937 Victor/Columbia jazz oriented recordings by Paul Whiteman with or without Bix Clarence Williams/Eva Taylor Blue Five recordings intertwined A Henry 'Red'Allen/J.C Higginbotham set along the lines of the Chu Berry set thus including Fletcher Henderson an MBRB recordings Louis Armstrong Okeh, Columbia and Victor recordings 1925-1932. Most of it is available off course. But not one series is complete. and if they could get an agreement with universal for the Brumswick sessions (they fit on one CD) it could be truly complete. Louis Armstrong Columbia 50's studio recordings. Duke Ellington a combined complete Sony/Universal 1925-1931 set. Duke Ellington complete 1947-1952 Columbia recordings. Some 50 unissued takes are known to collectors On my list was also the upcoming Teddy Wilson set.
