JSngry Posted March 7, 2010 Report Posted March 7, 2010 Maybe they made too many now future recordings to get to the next one. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 Going thru some boxes of old stuff today and found a letter from John Litweiler postmarked December 4, 1972 (I was living in Madison at the time). The note ends with "Koester will record H. Threadgill, w. Fred Hopkins, McCall & Claudine Myers, piano. sometime this month". The date never happened, but it still sounds dandy to me. "Amina Air" seems like a nice title. Quote
johnlitweiler Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 By the time Air first recorded the trio had been playing together (emphasis on together) for a few years, first at the U. of Chicago then IIRC weekly at the Jazz Showcase on Rush St. The 1st 2 Air LPs were done for a Japanese label and issued in the US on India Navigation. The albums are "Air Song" and "Air Raid" and I think those 2 are as wonderful as "Air Time." Quote
J.A.W. Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 The Threadgill/Air Mosaic is now scheduled for release in July/August 2010. Quote
Head Man Posted March 18, 2010 Report Posted March 18, 2010 The Threadgill/Air Mosaic is now scheduled for release in July/August 2010. Good news. I was sweating there for a while! Quote
Dave James Posted April 29, 2010 Report Posted April 29, 2010 The website now says August/September, 2010. Looks like this is still a moving target. Quote
J.A.W. Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 The upcoming Henry Threadgill Mosaic set can be pre-ordered now. It is scheduled to be released at the end of September and it will have 8 CDs. Sony engineer Mark Wilder did the mastering. discography Quote
Swinger Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Oh hell! Too many temptations and not enough money Quote
Head Man Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 The one I've been waiting for! Quote
jazzbo Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Done, thanks for the headsup Ditto! Quote
ghost of miles Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Really looking forward to this one--going to be quite an autumn/winter if the Sam Rivers and Ellington sets materialize as well. Quote
bluesbro Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 This one I really want. I'll have to start saving now. Quote
Clunky Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Really looking forward to this one--going to be quite an autumn/winter if the Sam Rivers and Ellington sets materialize as well. is the Ellington on the cards for this year ? Quote

They hope to release it in time for Christmas this year. It will be an 11CD-set. Quote
colinmce Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Any news on the Lucky Thompson Select (or any others)? Quote

They hope to release it in time for Christmas this year. It will be an 11CD-set. Wow, 11? For some reason I thought it was going to be 10. Either way, ho ho ho... anybody heard any updates about the Rivers set? At one time November was out there as a possible date. Quote
JSngry Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 I hope to have the money for the Treadgill. Nothing would make me happier than to get it early in the run. I was like that with the Eldridge too. Still not much talk about that one, which is too bad. The Eldridge set KILLS! Quote

I was like that with the Eldridge too. Still not much talk about that one, which is too bad. The Eldridge set KILLS! Jsngry, I'm with ya--I actually had the Eldridge on my "dream-Mosaic" wishlist before it ever materialized (I think I remember starting a thread about my hopes for such a project back on the old BNBB). Recently listened to the single-disc Verve sampler drawn from the same period, and it's made me want to go back and revisit the entire Mosaic. Quote
JSngry Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 It's a damn good set, and I don't know how well it's been gotten to by the members of this board. But damn good it is, and damn good will be the Threadgill!! Quote
B. Goren. Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 Really looking forward to this one--going to be quite an autumn/winter if the Sam Rivers and Ellington sets materialize as well. Sam Rivers and Ellington sets??? I guess I've missed something. Quote

greggery peccary Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 The Jazzloft is also accepting preorders for the Threadgill set. https://www.jazzloft.com/p-52714-complete-novuscolumbia-recordings.aspx Interesting...... Quote
