OOP Mosaic sets found in warehouse
Tom 1960 replied to J.A.W.'s topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Big fan of the Parlan set. -
I've always been a big fan of Columbia Crest Grand Estates Cabernet's and Merlot's. I claim to be no expert, but they have been highly regarded for the past few yrs and come at a very affordable price usually $12 - $14. Just make sure you look for the Grand Estates and not Two Vines which is a cheaper version of the label. Thanks for the tip, Tom. I've been meaning to take a chance on that winery...I'll check it out. Hey, let me know what you think? You shouldn't have any trouble finding that in your local wine store.

I purchased a bunch of titles off the VSOP/MODE label some months back and came across the name Herbie Harper. Didn't purchase at the time any of his sessions. I really don't know much about the guy except he was from the west coast and played trombone. I came across a couple titles he recorded back in the mid 50's, Herbie Harper Sextet and Five Brothers. He also recorded an album for the label back in 1989 which looks pretty interesting called Two Brothers which features Bill Perkins. Any thoughts on these releases? As always your input is much appreciated.

I'm right there with you, Matthew. 107 today. Christ, I'd hate delivering mail where you guys live.

Debut Fantasy boxed set
Tom 1960 replied to clifford_thornton's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
No, I wouldn't spend $40.00 on it. Buy it from a marketplace seller on Amazon.com. Newbury Comics is selling a new one there for $15.99 as of this posting. You just gotta love Newbury Comics. -
Third day in a row like this. After all the rain we've had, it's truly amazing. I actually had to go out and water the flowers. Something I've done little of the past month.

Holy crap! The wife is going to kill me.

For the month of June it rained 25 out of 30 days and the first 3 days of July it's also rained. Today however the weather is beautiful and more of the same is expected for tomorrow. Temps around 80. Hope to hop on the bike at some point over the weekend.

I had a gut feeling they were going to blow the lead in the 2'nd half and unfortunately proved me right. You just can't keep the Brazilians down for 90 minutes.

Billy Mays, star pitchman, dead at 50 The booming bearded TV hawker behind products such as Oxiclean and Mighty Putty has died. By Vivian Kuo CNN June 28, 2009: 1:34 PM ET (CNN) -- Billy Mays, the man with the booming voice famous for fronting products such as Oxiclean and Orange Glo in TV commercials, has died. Tampa police say Mays' wife Deborah found him unresponsive at his Tampa-area home Sunday morning. Tampa Fire Rescue pronounced him deceased at 7:45 a.m. The cause of death is unknown. Police say there were no signs of forced entry to the residence and there is no suspected foul play. Police said Mays was on the US Airways flight from Philadelphia that had a hard landing Saturday at Tampa International Airport after the front tire under the nose of the plane blew out. Tampa officials say the Medical Examiner's Office expects to complete an autopsy by Monday. In a statement, Deborah Mays said that although "Billy lived a public life," the family does not plan immediate public statements about his death.

Carmell Jones and Randy Weston Selects in "Running Low"
Tom 1960 replied to Ron S's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
2 thumbs up for the Carmell Jones. At present I don't own any music of Randy Weston and the lineup on this set make it awfully tempting. -
Yes, good music! The quartet is marvellous! Those "Plays" albums (by Charlie, Stu Williamson, Max Bennett...) should have been given the same treatment as the "Kenton Presents" sessions got... but Bethlehem is beyond reach for Mosaic, alas. I agree, it's great stuff. I already had the Japanese 2in1 Mariano Bethlehem set and now decided that it's about time I get the Stu Williamson 2in1 as well. The Max Bennett stuff doesn't seem quite as interesting judging from the lineup. Thanks for plugging this album. I purchased the Fresh Sounds release and should have this in my mailbox very soon.

Can't hurt to place a phone call. One of my orders was messed up not long ago and I just gave them a call and I just reordered it. They're pretty good over the phone.

RIP Rabbit Ears For Your TV
Tom 1960 replied to Soulstation1's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
To be honest, I don't notice a bit of difference in signal quality before and after. I already own a high def TV and hi def box from the cable company. The cable company(Time Warner) has an offering of channels CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN, CNN, and other usual suspects, set aside in the 700 - 800 channel range and those channels are incredibly clear. Watching a ball game is absolutely unbelievable on these channels. -
Which Mosaic Are You Enjoying Right Now?
Tom 1960 replied to Soulstation1's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Oliver Nelson: The Argo, Verve and Impulse Big Band Studio Sessions - Discs 2 and 3 -
Hope you don't mind me asking a stupid question? I understand the SACD's will run off a normal cd player which I presently own. Question, will the sound quality still be superior to a normal cd?
-
Damn straight.
