Maybe there's a box set if you include the Prestige albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romualdo Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 2 hours ago, mikeweil said: How about a Freddie Roach Blue Note set? Two albums albums worth of unissued music, five released albums. CD reissues were done only in Japan, AFAIK. I asked Michael C about that in the early 2000s when the Mosaic Selects first appeared - I thought Roach's 5 LPs would have been perfect for a 3CD set. Michael's response was that it wouldn't sell!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Would have made a great Select. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopkins Posted July 3, 2021 Report Share Posted July 3, 2021 I wish Mosaic had published a complete Billie Holiday set, covering the same years as the complete Columbia set, as I think Mosaic would have offered better sound quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make a great set. And a few errors could be corrected. 3 takes are not the alternates but duplicates of the master takes. 2 complete alternates and six incomplete takes are missing. And they could add 'Any old Time' with Artie Shaw. But who would buy it? Most of Billie's music is not exactly rare. On the other hand the Lady Day set is from 2001. So maybe there are new fans waiting for such a set. But frankly I don't hold my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Complete Stanley Cowell small group jazz recordings on Strata-East/Freedom/ECM/Galaxy (avoids the two icky ones on Galaxy and the indulgent 'Regeneration' on Strata-East, but includes the excellent 'Equipoise' Galaxy trio album).

Ken Dryden Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 I would imagine that since most, if not all, of Stanley Cowell's SteepleChase releases are in print, it would be an unlikely choice for a Mosaic set. I am trying to remember if Mosaic has ever licensed material recorded for non-US labels... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 I like 'Regeneration"...not a lot of people had the interest or scope to make a record like that and do it that well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to remember if Mosaic has ever licensed material recorded for non-US labels... Maybe that's a business that Mosaic could get into: Since a lot of the Mosaic allure is the "complete" aspect, maybe they could cut a deal with, say, Steeplechase, to buy from them a certain number of Cowell's complete CDs at a cut rate price, and turn around and sell complete sets of those CDs at a reduced price. It would be a box set without the actual box. I'm sure a lot of people are turned off from buying Steeplechase CDs at $20 a title...if Mosaic could offer a complete set at $10 a disc, but requiring buyers to buy the complete set to get that price, they might find interest from buyers. Here's a variation on that idea: Mosaic makes a box that fits those CDs, sells them with CDs and an accompanying booklet with essay by Bob Blumenthal and full discography, as an official Mosaic numbered limited edition.

jazzbo Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 Those would be great, though I doubt we'll see the first and third ever as there never seems to be an agreement between Mosaic and Concord, more's the pity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasing the Korean Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 A Machito/Chico O'Farrill set of Verve/Clef/Norgran stuff would have been nice, especially considering the extreme noise reduction on the Pablo Machito collection. I guess this will never happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The double CD Chuck posted was bootlegged by some European label, too. But since O'Farrill made many of his Clef/Norgan/Verve recordings with the same pool of musicians that play in Machito's Orquesta, the combination is obvious. The tracks reissued by Verve on various compilations show much better audio than that Pablo double LP. But the question is whether the sources survived in the Universal vaults ....
