colinmce Posted 16 hours ago Report Posted 16 hours ago JM sent out an email with a cache of used Mosaic sets, and this jumped out at me immediately. Is it a fan-made set? What's with the (presumably?) fake PR from Mosaic? Very odd ... https://www.jazzmessengers.com/en/106579/bob-crosby/classic-decca-rec-orchestra-and-bob-cats-36-42?mc_cid=dd2d2338a0&mc_eid=96816ee3b9 Quote
Dan Gould Posted 16 hours ago Report Posted 16 hours ago Too weird! and of course that Mosaic release number is fake ... I am online friends with Michael Steinman who supposedly wrote the booklet. I should reach out to him. Quote
Niko Posted 15 hours ago Report Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Fwiw, Steinmann mentions that such a set is in the works and that he's kind of involved here https://jazzlives.wordpress.com/2025/02/04/a-swing-concert-for-joe-sullivan-april-18-1937-congress-hotel-chicago/ Edited 15 hours ago by Niko Quote

Or is this some sort of early reviewer copy, before they even hint at a release schedule? Quote
jazzbo Posted 14 hours ago Report Posted 14 hours ago (edited) No, Mosaic has not released a set at this time. I think that JM has jumped the gun, I would expect a Mosaic announcement soon, possibly via Sundy Gazette. Edited 14 hours ago by jazzbo Quote
colinmce Posted 14 hours ago Author Report Posted 14 hours ago Catalog number is #283, right after the Sanders set, so it does seem legitimately forthcoming and likely mistakenly included among the used items. Quote

All seems logical now but how is a copy leaking to a European seller and before any peep from Mosaic? I didn't even think they went to production until after a pre-sale period. Quote
Stompin at the Savoy Posted 10 hours ago Report Posted 10 hours ago This seems like a really interesting release. I'm up for it! Quote

I didn't even think they went to production until after a pre-sale period. I think they were just sent information/hype statement and a pic to put up when they are available. And they jumped the gun, there was some crossed communication. Just my guess. I had heard a while back a Crosby set was a possibility so I'm not surprised to see it as coming soon. Quote
