Universal will release "Cat on the Hot Fiddle" as LPR edition in March this year. Maybe this is the reason??? Mmmm, don't think so!

Thanks Claude, but we have two Zweitausendeins-Shops here in Hamburg. I pre-ordered the box directly from Mosaic for much more then € 49,99!!! It's great music - worth every €, $, £, ... I'll wait with the Eldridge box. Maybe 2001 offer this box in the near future (with the new catalog in May?!).

Zweitausendeins offers the "European version" of this fantastic Mosaic set for a very special price. >>>>> KLICK! <<<<<

$100 for the Bobby Hackett Mosaic set + expensive shipping costs!!! Hackett eBay auction

The Johnny Hodges box is highly recommended!

I received an e-mail from Mosaic yesterday: We have just added The Complete Blue Note Blue Mitchell Sessions (MD4-178) to our Running Low category. Blue Mitchell's warm, soulful trumpet is on display on the 6 albums in this 4-CD set including "Step Lightly" with Joe Henderson and Herbie Hancock; two classic albums, "The Thing To Do" and "Down With It!" with Junior Cook and Chick Corea; "Bring It Home To Me" with Junior Cook and Harold Mabern; "Boss Horn" showcasing a septet group with Julian Priester, Pepper Adams and Junior Cook and the arranging talents of Duke Pearson and "Heads Up!", featuring a ten-piece group. One of my favorite Mosaic sets. Get it!!!

Yes! Late January 2005!

For US citizens only!

Both Johnny Hodges sets, Chico Hamilton (yes, yes!), J.J. Johnson, Shorty Rogers, Andrew Hill, Elvin Jones, Jimmy Giuffre, Blue Mitchell, Gerry Mulligan, ... Only ONE favorite - impossible!!!

Hmm! I love the Shank too. The Giuffre is another set I play very often. But I have my problems with the Jones/Lewis (May I say that here at all?! ) and the Smith (as White Lightning said before, we all know better material from this B3-titan).

- MD3-166 Curtis Fuller - MD3-167 Sam Rivers - MD3-172 Thad Jones - The Blue Note Years - 60th Anniversary 14CD Box Set - Dexter Gordon - Complete Blue Note Sessions - Herbie Hancock - Complete Blue Note Sessions

That's right. It is not my favorite set. But some of the tunes are really great music and i'm happy to have this one on my shelf.

It's gone. How long was this set it in the "running low" & "last chance" categories?

The street date for the Eldridge set in Europe seems to be January, 27 2004. The price is EURO 122,99 at amazon.de!

The german (Spiegel magazine) edition is still available!!! Duke Ellington Reprise

Pretty cool!!!

Does somebody know something about this hugh LP-set???

The Atlantic New Orleans Jazz Sessions (#179) (4 CD ) box set is now on the running low list!

Please consider that it's not the standard LP-size Mosaic Box & booklet. But Mosaic told me via email that it is within the 10.000 copies edition. Maybe this "Spiegel Edition" is the reason why the Ellington set hits the "Running low"-category that fast!

Q: What is the result if you hybridize a german news magazine with Mosaic Records? A: ANY COMMENTS?????

At present I possess no records of the 200g Quiex SV-P Classic Records series but I intent to buy some titles. Should I get the Mono or Stereo releases? Which one sound better?

To avoid customs duty you can buy the box here in Germany for € 66,90. It's a very fair price, IMO.
