(They seem to have had a blackout in Italy, too - hence Holland partly on double bass and Chick on wood flute... no money for a piano in Italy you know, they had to sell it in order to pay the mob ) (Here's the Rome link: http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Sessions.aspx?s=691027) But this one from Paris is interesting: Rooster, here's Stockholm: http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Sessions.aspx?s=691105 They do the title tune "Bitches Brew", it seems. Not sure if there are any other examples.

Acting as devil's advocate: It's too expensive. It's beyond the 100$ threshold. I know Mosaic keeps telling that sets sized less than 7CDs aren't feasible... but sets in the 4-5CD range are cheap enough to be bought on impulse, whilst a 7CD box is just too much for that. There's various sides to every apect, I'm sure. I'll definitely want the Hawkins box, but there's plenty of other sets from the past three or four years I still don't have. WHOAH, that's one big booklet! When was the last time Mosaic included such a thick booklet? (Too bad about the error, though!)

Gee, I wish him all the best!

Absolutely! I've heard some (but not all, alas) of the complete sets and I'd LOVE to get all of it! The sets are short, they'd fit onto 3CDs easily (if one gets torn apart, which would be silly, taking into account how cheap a CD actually is... but the cover art would have to be changed... but then I do hope they change that anyway to add one more slot for the booklet!)

Sorry for having started that rumour - not sure what went on in my brain when I posted that

some amazing newly found music up here: http://electricjive.blogspot.ch/2012/05/love-for-free-hidden-south-african-jazz.html and some great photos, too!

I missed the last one (apologies) but would like to get a DL, Stefan - can't guarantee I'll post this time, though. Hope that's okay!

Oh fuck no! I just recently found out about him!

I'd be all for a second LQ set, indeed! (and thanks, Larry!)

Neither do I... Both sets from Antibes? Sure? That would be just great! Those are great concerts. (Though I think some of the fall concerts are even better!) Yes, I do agree - to me, the November tour is kind of the main oeuvre of the Lost Quintet - so the balance of that new set is somewhat off, I find.

Where are they regurgitating the Copenhagen DVD? Not in this set, apparently. Sorry, just noticed my bad... DVD is from Berlin. Not sure how I got to this mix-up.

Am I alone in finding it pretty lame to re-pack the Copenhagen DVD that was in the BB Anniversary set already? They could have done better than that! (Or maybe they still can!)

Got it. Thanks again. If it's all pretty much on other Mosaics I'm not bothered by this. It may be on the McDermott Mosaic. "Been out there" in this case means in plenty a form and shape, but not necessarily on Mosaic...

You don't like the recent stuff? Or are you reacting to the funny guys above?

Another good one, from one of their few reunion concerts (which alas, I all missed): http://www.intaktrec.ch/rev170-a.htm

Happy Birthday! :party:

okay - I mis-read, thought Berlin was part of the audio part also... but if that's on DVD, it will indeed fit, and it will be great! Though there ought to be a second volume covering the November concerts in depth...

Both sets from Antibes? Sure? That would be just great!

Too expensive to ship over the pond... but I'm looking forward to hearing it a lot! Saw the group last november and it was great!

Great news, that 1969 set!!! Too bad though Antibes won't be complete (or would that still fit onto three CDs? I don't think so, but haven't inspected yet).

shit! r.i.p. Pete Cosey

Too bad no one was around to take this over! Btw, what about that session that was to be issued on a Blue Note CD? Whatever happened to that project, why was it shelved? It looks fascinating on paper, to say the very least!

Not sure what I found three weeks ago, but it says Swallow and Drummond indeed!
