Bill Nelson Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 That Addey is at the helm is often the sole incentive I need. But I'm also holding 5 of 12 in gorgeous Japanese LP Mercury pressings and can live for now without the box, that is, until the siren's 'last chance' call. (Right?) Until then, I'll put my trigger finger to use dropping the needle to the vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgraham333 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 I just called Mosaic and the distortion is bad on all Disc 7s. They've notified the manufacturer and they're going to replace them all when they get them in. Does anyone have any more details on this? When will the replacements be available? Do we have to request them or will they be sent to us automatically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaney Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 (edited) Sit tight and Mosiac will send your replacement CD without further action by you. Edited August 31, 2004 by Chaney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bright Moments Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 i spoke with mosaic today and the woman i spoke with said they expect the manufacturer to deliver new discs within 1 or 2 weeks. she assured me that the replacement discs would go right out.

mgraham333 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 My email response from Mosaic: We are aware of the problem and are seeking to resolve it. We have not yet received an expected date from the pressing plant when the corrected disc #7 will be available although our expectation is approximately 2 weeks. There is no need to send back the damaged disc or to send a request. Once we receive the disc we will automatically send it to all set owners. We apologize for the error and will correct it as soon as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trane123 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Mosaic actually sent me an unsolicited replacement for one of the Miles LPs that apparently had a manufacturing problem. Only thing was that I hadn't bought the whole set (only the booklet). I guess they choose to err on the safe side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Well I hate to complain but here goes: The jewelcase booklet for discs 3/4 is missing the discography info for session F. I'm shocked that nobody noticed it before me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Doesn't anyone at Mosaic listen to the set before it goes out, or check and verify the contents? This has been a perennial problem for BN and Mosaic. Most recent gaffes, the Eldridge cover photo, and the Moncur disc. If availability of personnel is a problem, I bet you that a call for volunteer help would net a good sized bunch of capable folks willing to help with production issues- just for the love of the music and of Mosaic (and maybe the chance of a free set ).

desertblues Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 It would seem they could use a proof reader, and maybe some more "ears" at Mosaic. On a more positive note, this is a wonderful set-sound quality and content! This is, for me, one of the Mosaics where EVERY disc is gonna get lots of play.

ghost of miles Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Glitches aside, it's a gorgeous-sounding set. Mine came this a.m. and I immediately all but inhaled discs 1 & 2. The MEET THE JAZZTET material sounds much better than my old Chess CD of it. Of the 12 albums, I have only 5, so most of this is new to me. Great run Mosaic's been on in the past month and a half...

montg Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 If I'm following correctly, the disc 7 problem is in the disc itself rather than in the remastering/source material. I don't know the technicalities of how CDs are made...is there an easy or straightforwad explantion for how a disc malfunction would be responsible for the distortion? It seems unusual...I don't think I've ever had to return a disc for a manufacturing problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesbed Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 I don't know the technicalities of how CDs are made...is there an easy or straightforwad explantion for how a disc malfunction would be responsible for the distortion? I believe this is a good discussion of how a CD works. However, I don't believe it discusses how a CD malfuntion might cause distortion. link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sal Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 This is such a wonderful set!! Went right to near the top of my favorites list after the first listen. What really moved me was those Golson quartet sessions. Some absolutely heart-wrenching playing on these sides. Its really something how once you think you know about an artist, you'll discover something new that shows you never really knew thier work. Beautiful stuff.
