I just heard about this. What a loss! From Miles to Return to Forever to myriad other bands (Circle, Origin, etc.), he always created great music! He was/is one of the greats. Ironically, I just received in this morning's mail the new Tone Poet lp release of his first album, Now He Sings, Now He Sobs, which I had ordered from Amazon 4 or 5 days ago. I will be playing a lot of his music this weekend. RIP

I was wondering about that...their ebay listing shows the location as Riga, Latvia...but the mailing envelope does look like it was postmarked from Lithuania. Regardles of which location it was shipped from, shipping was quite prompt, especially compared to the mess that is the USPS these days.

I just received Volumes 2, 3, and 4 today. Shipping only took 12 days from a Latvia to upstate NY. That is quite impressive, considering that it took longer (over two weeks) for 2 CDs I ordered last month to arrive from Maine and Buffalo (each about a 4-5 hour drive from where I live)! I look forward to listening to at least one or two of the volumes this weekend.

Great news. I will definitely get it. All I have is the Milestone box so an upcomg Mosaic would be a nice addition for my JH collection.

I picked up Volume 1 from a discogs Seller recently and just listened to it yesterday (I listened to it twice, in fact). It is fantastic in every way - wonderful music, great sound (dynamic and not compreseed at all), and an excellent booklet and liner notes. I liked it so much that I just ordered Volumes 2, 3, and 4 from No Business via their eBay listing. I have no idea how long those 3 volumes will take to get to NY from Latvia but it will be well worth the wait. I had not previously heard about the Sam Rivers Archive Series. Thanks for this thread for pointing it out to me. Volume 1 is fantastic and I am sure that the other volumes will also be great.

I also have a few Scorpios in my collection - Sun Ra, Coltrane, Ramones, etc. I bought them new a few years ago at my local record store. Scorpio reissues lps on 180gram vinyl and reproduces the original album cover art. In fact, "Scorpio" is not listed anywhere on the lp label or cover. I was told by a very knowledgeable record dealer that one can spot a Scorpio record by the large black/gold "180 gram" label on the shrinkwrap. The Scorpio reissues are ubiquitous. They market 180 gram vinyl as being better sounding than non-180gram lps (which is nothing but marketing nonsense). However, most Scorpio reissues are merely needle drops. The sound is not bad on the Scorpio reissues but I have learned to avoid buying them. I spend money on records to have something that sounds better than a CD, not to have a needle drop lp that sounds the same as a CD.

I am offering for sale the following Mosaic Louis Armstrong box set: Columbia and RCA Victor Live Recordings of Louis Armstrong and the All Stars. 9 CDs.

I just received Sun Ra's Solar-Myth Approach Vols. 1 & 2 in today's mail. I ordered directly from Corbett vs Dempsey. I am curious how the sound will compare to the previous CD version I have (the 2001 Fuel Records 2000 2-CD version) as well as the recent vinyl reissues I have of the 2 volumes. I am sure the new CvsD reissue will have improved sound quality and I look forward to listening to it this weekend.

I just received my copy in this morning's mail. It will be a fun weekend of listening to music. In addition to receiving the new Mosaic Hank Mobley set, today I also received the new Thelonious Monk Palo Alto CD, as well as a Zombies box set (Zombie Heaven, 4 CD).

I just received an e-mail from Mosaic notifying me that my Mobley set shipped today. I should have it in 4 or 5 days. Has anyone received the set yet?

I am looking for CD 3 of the large Andrew Hill set, as well as a nice copy of the box for that set. I bought a set a couple of years ago off of ebay for a very cheap price because it was missing CD 3 and the box was badly beat up but it had everything else. It is one of my favorite Mosaics and it would be nice to have it complete. Here is a full list of things I am looking for: Andrew Hill Complete Blue Note (need CD3 and box) Eddie Condon Mob Sessions (need box) Jimmy Giuffre Complete Capitol & Atlantic Recordings (need box) Teddy Wilson Complete Verve (need box and large book) Benny Goodman Small Group (need box) Lee Morgan/Wayne Shorter Complete VeeJay (need box) Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker Complete Pacific Jazz & Capitol (need box)
