I have to admit that it does sound like a real pain. I have the Tocj after selling the vinyl and it sounds great. If you guys do not get anywhere with Mosaic on this let me know and I will sort out a nicer sounder copy ( although I cannot understand why they cannot do this themselves!!) See how you get on with this and let me know if I can help as The Way I Feel is a great session and it is a bummer if the tape has been ruined. Andy

Oh Dear I got the same offer and I suppose I must just have to wait for a bit. I only ordered two ( the Hill and Mobley as I have Japanese versions of Sonic Boom and Procrastinator) Chin up and lets hope they honour their offer.

Well I would like to add my thanks for that as it was a really lovely piece to read in this format. Many thanks for sharing this. Andy

If it helps, I have bought the Black Rythm Happening on cd from amazon I think and I really liked it but I always had a soft spot for the title piece. The rest is also worth a listen and for the price I paid..not much it was worth a risk. I have also pre ordered the Ghetto Music here in the UK which looks pencilled in for October. Let me know if I can help anymore. Andy

Last time I looked he was shipping to the US only so I am kinda stuck. Cheers Andy

Up again for any last offers of help

I always thought the later Andrew Hill thing would be lovely. Just the idea that it would all be fresh and untouched would be great...Perhaps more a mosaic then I dunno. I also would have loved the Reuben WIlson sets to come out which could be done on a select issue. Also one perhaps to ponder over... a lost sessions special from Blue Note vaults like the mid to late sixites stuff......I loved theat one cd they put out and this would be a find as there are so many little odds and sods that a box set could cover without the financial risk of the bigger mosaic...just think all those glorious littel sets you read about in the discography... Dream dream etc for the rest of the day

I am getting gradully older and never did get this set on cd when it came out as I never knew about the sets at the time. Does anybody have a copy of the set or in particular the second disc as I have the Blue Note cd That first Day which was great which has the Ammons and duet material and the Blues set by Meade Lux Lewis . At the time Blue Note promised to put the second Lewis cd with all the rest but never did and I particularly love the harpsicord stuff. Anybody able to help me out with this one? Especially the second disc and I would much appreciate this. -_-

no the box set always have a booklet but it is a reduced size one. There is one with the booklet . All the Eu versions still have oll the info but these were obviously leftoverswith cd cases and inserts but no books When I wrote to zweitausand about them they said they had both sorts ( with or without booklet) but these were leftovers with no booklet or cover. All the other sets I have had from them ( i bought the montgomery riverside last year ) were complete with booklet. Not as nice as the large US versions but for the price I goththem at who cares. As for the remastering quality I do not know. Andy

Got the box set through allthough the Bill Evan sRiverside and Thelonius Monk were without any booklet or info which was a littel annoying. Still remarkable value for the music available Andy

Right if that is their attitude there is no other option. Seek out membership and get yourself chucked out Come on lads over the top................................chaaarge!

I have both and both are more than fine Andy

Sounds as pleasant as a fart in a wetsuit I hope this does not spread

Well I have just got an email saying that only one was sold out!! So i have got the following coming evidently 74848 COLEM.,O.GOLD.1 DRCD 1 74849 COLEM.,O.GOLD.2 DRCD 1 ornette at the golden circle 75006 EVANS,B. FANTASY 9CD 1 75008 MONK RIVERSIDE 15CD 1 75009 EVANS RIVERSIDE 12CD 1 I have not one Bill Evans cd in my collection so it will be a good introduction and I have pined after the monk set for a while too. Shame is that the coltrane set is out of stock but I have a few of the cds off that anyway. But who cares three out of four ain't bad and the deal gives me 38 cds for 83 euros not a bad days trading .yessir! Thanks to the original post

Too late I know but truely sad news. I have all her Blue Note stuff and it was lovely. Sad sad news indeed Andy

I would dearly like to see that certain feeling reissued as it is a great LP. I had the LP for years and then sold it. I now have a copy on cdr but will immedietly get the set when it comes out. The set is moving on from Good Thing Going in many ways but there are a couple of killer tracks for me at least. Surprised to see Understanding on it again but they must have a good enough reason! Mind you I would have preferred it out as a single cd but you cannot win them all can you. It is like the Soul Connection that I had on LP but had to part company with as that was good for me too. He had a good thing going on with Grachan Moncur III

Well it is good to be amongst friends again and to get back to business once again where we left off at the BNBB. I must say this is all very posh and modern!! What with all the controls and special features. Anyway I was pleased also to see the sale mentioned and tried to secure for my family ( not me of course!) the delights available. I have used them many times before and I have had no problems previously They have been in fact very reliable and all I do is wait and order up a large box to save on postage ALso picked up new expanded versions of the following which I am looking forward to .
