mikeweil Posted March 22, 2014 Report Posted March 22, 2014 Had a surprise half-day off today and pulled out the one Hutcherson LP in my collection that is included in the Select and gave in, placed my order, along with the Jazz Crusaders and the Jazz Piano Single - sigh .... but I can afford it at the moment, and y'all know how it feels. Picked it up at the local customs office yesteday, all mighty fine stuff .... What bugs me a little is that the Zeitlin Select that I had ordered two weeks before this package, still hasn't arrived ... Quote
JSngry Posted March 23, 2014 Report Posted March 23, 2014 What bugs me a little is that the Zeitlin Select that I had ordered two weeks before this package, still hasn't arrived ... Maybe it lulls people who are just handling it into a sleep? Quote

Maybe it lulls people who are just handling it into a sleep? I'd say not if they have ears to listen ... but then that pretty often proves a rather rare treat if you exit this place and enter real world.Crossing my fingers, Mike! If bad comes to worse, let me know ... Quote
bluesoul Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Sarah Vaughan and Django Reinhardt sets now on Last Chance During the recent sale of EMI Music, pieces of the company were sold to Warner Bros. rather than Universal Music. As a result, we lost the rights to manufacture more of our Sarah Vaughan (Roulette) and Django Reinhardt (EMI France) sets. The supplies we have on both sets are very low and will only be available for a short time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Edited April 29, 2014 by bluesoul Quote

The Bunny Berigan set made a comeback on Last Chance Quote
TheMusicalMarine Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Thanks for the heads up, Stompy (just ordered one). According to Scott Wenzel, they discovered the Berigan sets in a a box marked Woody Herman, somehow confused in their move from one location to another. Quote
mjzee Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Another thanks from me, Stompy. One on the way here. Quote
crisp Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 If only they would find a box of Nat Cole sets simllarly mislabelled! Quote
bluesoul Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Looked at the Berigan listing, went and had lunch, came back to order it and now it's gone. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Looks like my next order will be the Django and Sarah Vaughan boxes ! Edited April 29, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
RiRiIII Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Looks like my next order will be the Django and Sarah Vaughan boxes ! Sarah Vaughan gone, the moment I was checking out!!! Vanished. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Looks like my next order will be the Django and Sarah Vaughan boxes ! Sarah Vaughan gone, the moment I was checking out!!! Vanished. Holy Jeez - Ordered it just a few minutes ago myself so maybe (hopefully) I got the last one? Quote

sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) (heck, really sorry...) This sort of reminds me of that last 'night of the long knives' when all those boxes and Selects all disappeared real fast. Was that back in 2010? Edited April 29, 2014 by sidewinder Quote

I lost some minutes looking for something to supplement it... and there you are. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Maybe I wasn't the last to pick one up - I did check the 'Last Chance' list after I'd got my order processed and email received and both were still showing at that stage. I'm not sure if those things show status immediately or if there is a bit of a lag? Editted to say - still seems to be available in the alternative jazz universe at jazzmessengers.com ! http://www.jazzmessengers.com/en/10128/sarah-vaughan/the-complete-roulette-studio-sessions Edited April 29, 2014 by sidewinder Quote

sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Excellent ! Can't keep up with this. Django seems to have gone now from 'Last Chance' as well. They weren't kidding when they said that stock was very low. Edited April 29, 2014 by sidewinder Quote

They weren't kidding when they said that stock was very low. Crazy indeed. After I successfully placed my order with Jazz Messengers, it is listed as "out of stock"; last copy for me as well? Or, no copy at all... Edited April 29, 2014 by Alexandros Quote
bluesoul Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Mosaic still has the Django up on eBay, listed at the moment as 2 copies available Quote
sidewinder Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) US-only shipping by the looks of it so anyone wanting to buy from Europe is stuffed (unless they can collect it via a US Embassy I guess..) Edited April 29, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
xybert Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 It's weird, yeah as of this posting there doesn't seem to be any trace of the Django set on the Mosaic site. I wanted to check because i could've sworn it was listed as backordered until the second half of 2014 along with a whole bunch of other sets i was looking at getting recently... wondered how that would factor in to the whole 'last chance' thing... i could be mistaken though and it might have still been available, could've sworn though...

colinmce Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 During the 2010 slaughter a couple sets disappeared right out of my cart. Quote
mjzee Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Got my shipping notice for the Berigan. Quote
