JohnT Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 I received Kid Ory set #837 two days ago and just started listening to it. Sounds great so far!! Wish I could hear bassist Wellman Braud a little better on disc #1 but the whole band is just tearing it up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesbed Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 My order for Ms. O'Day has been placed with Mosaic. Anita O'Day is my second favorite female vocalist. My first favorite female vocalist being Ella Fitzgerald. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASNL77 Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) I received my O'Day and Johnson sets toay. The O'Day is number 2958. I have only had time to listen to fifteen tracks of disc 1 and I think I 'm going to like this one a lot. But more than O'Day's voice, I am really impressed with the quality of the sound. A big here. The music is great too. More from me, when I have listened to the whole thing. Edited August 5, 2005 by ASNL77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I have spelled it "butt" always, so far... also I considered that to be a noun... Then, I have paid for my Organissimo CD weeks (if not months) back, so I have, uhm,... butted it already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet there are less than 100 copies of the JJ by now... if you don't already have it, don't be a procrastinator!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Yeah, let's all relax. I may have to relent on the O'Day. I'll check Mosaic manana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) I completely agree.... maybe this national heat wave has finally cracked its way onto Organissimo.... FYI on the O'day set...I also bought some work of her pre-and post the Mosaic set... (40's and the 70's) and it doesn't compare.... the 70's stuff sounds pretty off... but you'll be the best judge... thanks for calming reminder.... Yeah, let's all relax.

trane_fanatic Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 How does the numbering on Mosaics work again? If there are 7500 sets and #2958 is the latest on here..., yet it's supposed to be almost sold out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) Assuming my understanding is correct... Mosaic has a license to sell ## number of sets and the license only last so many years... So they may sell 7500 or sold until the license runs out (whichever comes first).... The other interesting question which some board vets may know the answer to... Is which Mosaic sets sold out (e.g., all 5000/75000 gone) BEFORE the license exprired...? If I had to guess which ones went OOP before the license expired...???? Probably... Nat King Cole set.... Lee Morgan 50's session, and ??? It seems to me these days... most of the licenses expire before they reach their limit... And obviously some sets (e.g., Four Freshman and Mildred Bailey)... ain't selling no 5000 copies... no matter how long the license is... Unless Bill Gates has a Mildred Bailey fetish.... How does the numbering on Mosaics work again?

BFrank Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Here's what Mosaic says about the leasing situation: Why Limited Editions? Mosaic does not own Pacific Jazz, Atlantic, Columbia, RCA, Blue Note, Verve or any other catalog product. With the exception of our Benedetti/Parker set, we lease all of our recordings from other record companies. The leases vary in detail, but in every case there's a cap on either the number of units we are allowed to manufacture or the number of years we're allowed to offer the set for sale. Therefore once the set has sold out, it will not be made available again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
