ASNL77 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) Just popped in an internet cafe in Reykjavik (Iceland) to check there was still time to order it and that Soulstation hadn´t posted his lethal Procratinator picture. Relax and get back to the thermal hot springs ! Exactly what I did! Blue Lagoon yesterday morning, Bristol traffic jams yesterday evening! What a contrast!

Have you ordered the set yet Yves? I'm procrastinating myself... Do get in touch the next time you come to Bristle and you can visit us. I have no doubt that listening to the Mosaic of your choice should ease off the pain of awful traffic conditions in our lovely city... I haven't ordered the Jazz Piano set yet as our holiday in Iceland has left our bank account rather empty. I will definitely get it but I am going to delay the order as much as possible. Yet, I know Soulstation1 is lurking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ... and mine is just about to empty as I've been told that I need to replace my central heating boiler and most of the plumbing to the LPG tank ! What a bummer !

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I don't think I'm going to get a Mosaic set this year; disappointed that the sale didn't include anything off boxes. I generally only buy in their sales. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Over $2 to the £ makes it feel more of a sale to me. I'm used to having to buy Mosaics at about $1.40 to the £, so this is quite a saving at present. That's what I keep telling myself anyway. and the boiler can go to hell !

Quincy Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I don't think I'm going to get a Mosaic set this year; disappointed that the sale didn't include anything off boxes. I generally only buy in their sales. I was hoping that the Venuti-Lang would be on sale. I had no reason to expect it to be, other than last year's interesting mix of Bix, Stitt, etc. that were marked down. I may get it yet by Christmas or before. However I've picked up an Jordi Savall SACD habit (THANKS CLAUDE!) and I haven't been this excited about something new (if 400+ year old music can be "new" ) in a long time. So Mosaic has some competition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Have taken the pluge with 'Piano Moods' as its now on 'Last Chance'. Also picked up a couple of the Selects and Singles (Freeman, Blakey). Therapeutic ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I don't know - for $112 I could rig up a mega big bunsen burner arrangement with Liebig condenser etc and still have change for a Select.

ASNL77 Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 (edited) I have just ordered three Selects: Art Pepper, David Liebman and Johnny Richards. A bit of a mixed bag with very different styles.I hope I won't be disappointed with the Liebman set. I listened to the audio clips and I liked what I heard.

I noticed yesterday that our public library has the Liebman, as well as the Mulligan Select. I know they have others that I already have, like the Weston & Moncur. Very nice way to "try to before you buy," or just let the library copy be yours to check out as needed (provided the need is not great.) I have been on the fence about the Liebman as well, so one of these days I'll have to check it out (or at least part of it, as they break it up for lending purposes) and see if it makes it onto the next Mosaic order.
