Exactly, and add to that the fact that most young people don't even store music anymore. They just stream. CDs were once a convenient medium for accessing digital music. But technology has moved on. Now most people without music collections per se can access all that they want, any time that they want, anywhere that they want,.

"Rhapsody" is a particularly nice item on Disc 1 - in good sound as well. It sounds to me like he is working with "I Can't Get Started" here but moves quite far from it in a very unique and beautiful manner.

EKE - Many thanks for all this information!!

RIP. The Louis Armstrong biography was very good.

Yes, that is the point. I don't believe that trio was otherwise recorded.

Yea, I was thinking that too.

I still stumbled on this very intriguing item in the Lord discography. I wonder if we will ever get to hear some of it?

High Note released some other fine live recordings of this band from the same tour, although they took a promotional liberty to headline Woody Shaw's name instead of Junior Cook.

RIP. It is getting to the point that I dread looking at the Organissimo board in the morning. So many deaths.

I PMed you

You are looking for hard copies of the CDs or just the digital music?

I didn't realize there was a film. Thanks!

Thanks. I will follow up.

Thanks for starting a Tim Berne thread. I have to admit that, except for Broken Shadows, I have somehow lost focus on what he has been doing during the last few decades. But I really did appreciate his earlier work with Science Fiction and Bloodcount. Some of that music is really mesmerizing. What should I listen to today, other than Broken Shadows, to catch up with Tim Berne?

Mine just shipped.

Most music released on 78s, EPS, and LPs that never received a commercial release on CD or download form is not lost. In fact, collectors have digitalized most of that music and circulate it among themselves. There are some 78s that were supposedly released but have never been tracked down yet by collectors. But that is something else. The digital age is not responsible for music being lost. On the contrary. Music that used to be rare are heard by only a select few is now readily multiplied.

Thanks for the warning, Lon. Part of the issue is likely initial expectations. We usually just assume that any Mosaic is going to sound great.

Coming of age in the 70s, we really hated disco. Why? James Brown et al had just delivered what we considered to be the greatest dance music ever: heavy funk. Then somehow the mechanical and repetitive rhythms of disco came and replaced it. That was a terrible sacrifice. It wasn't until more than a decade later when the Bomb Squad, Dr. Dre et al finally got to the business of further developing funk. It was lost decade, in my opinion. Disco still sucks!

I forgot that the Hemphill box was released this year. That and the Hassan solo recordings were of huge historical importance.

Moody piano playing goes back to Chopin.

I got an email from Mosaic today that my order is now "being processed." I guess that it a step up from my order being on hold... I guess. ???

I imagine if Blue Note owned them, they would have put them out long ago. I don't know of any other existing Ornette Coleman recordings made from April, 1961-May, 1965. It is a huge gap in his discography.
