McLean Mosaic


ASNL77

Recommended Posts

I hate starting a thread about a set which I am sure must have been discussed before but I can't find anything on that one. :blink:

Now that 'Consequence' is about to be reissued, is there anything on the Mosaic set which has not been released yet or that is OOP at the moment?

You have got yourself a good set there.

I have had it since it came out and feel very much as if it is was a really selection...although I could never understand why they left out the Consequence material ( er sorry I meant Hi Frequency stuff sorry!!!! -_- )...I mean come on!

Anyway it was a beauty and a really good treat. I used to listen to it on and off for days upon end and then leave it for months but still go back to it fresh and enjoy it.

See Claude's post (#3) above.

The Mosaic set includes:

It's Time

Action

Right Now

Jacknife

Consequences

High Frequency

You mean it gets worse!!!

Facts are hard to use when I have little or no brains

I am confusing the two fers now....both of jackknife 2fers were on the mosaic correct?

The Hipnosis 2 fer was the old jackie mclean quintet session and one with grachan moncur that saw the light in the moncur box set

I will shut up now and please ignore all I have said about consequence, hi frequency,jacknife etc except that they are all very very good

Yours humbly meek on issues discogrpahical whilst sat in my office

Aha!

Panic (for me ) over with.

Back home in the comfort of my own home and surrounded by music and not work!

The cd I was referring to was Hipnosis from 67 and wasn' t in the Mosaic set. I had a cdr of an lp burn which served until the Grachan Moncur select was issued.

I was lucky enough to have had Bout soul both as an lp then as the cd when that came out......but thanks for that anyway...I remember seeing that they only stuck the moncur tracks from this in the select...bit strange but I suppose the Grachan Moncur name leads that to happen :P

Mystery and small Mclean panic over for me

Thought for a minute there I had missed a set

Goes to show what they have reissued of his over the years though including reissuing all the LT seried with him on (vertigo and consequence)......and the other goodies that sat around for years

Now playing Eco from the Mosaic set on my pc to cheer me up after that nasty Blue Note wobble and I feelin damn good

I do have to say that this set represents Mosaic at their best for me :)

Wish I could have the Mosaic, but I just snapped up the last of these sessions in one fell swoop over the last few days. Can't wait to hear the material!

Well mr.Colinmce you made reappear this tread on purpose to me.

For years I have searched for this set, on and off, sometimes repelled by 'ebay craziness' and some foolish price.

In these times of crysis with super-euro quotes I had it 'mint' finally. Weird as I found no bid on it, so I had the lowest price. Its cost -Big Euro withstanding- has been close the average nowadays inprint Mosaic Box, shipping included.

Well worth occasion!
