I don't think Mosaic has much access to that catalog. If they did, I'd want that massive Gene Ammons set first!

True!!

The chapter titles do pique my interest. Might be worth a look!

Been watching "Kaos" on Netflix. Jeff Goldblum is having a very good time in that one!

Went to see "Lee" with Kate Winslett. Excellent film! Then I went to see "Megalopolis." Far less excellent. Some nice visuals, but I think the Daily Beast reviewer got it right when that writer called it a "big mess."

This is very cool. Thanks for the heads-up!

Oh Lord, *I* had that 45 too!!

A valuable record of a great, largely unremembered band. Fred Beckett was a great trombonist! I'm listening to a classic from the golden age of Columbia Legacy reissues

Makes perfect sense Steve. I was being a bit of a smart ass. Actually, the walls in my music room are largely covered in posters from various concerts I've had the luck to attend!

A friend gave me an LP of Sinatra's "Only the Lonely" a few years ago, and since it's my favorite Sinatra album (and I have it several times over on cd), I framed that one and put it on the wall, but it's the only one. I keep my LPs on shelves in case I want to, you know, play them.......

You can never have too much Basie in your life.

I used to do credit card ordering, but there were kinks, so I've followed your example and used paypal for a while. Seems to work much better.

Truly one of a kind!

I don't think in all the years I've been ordering sets from Mosaic that I've ever gotten any of that, just a confirmation of the order. Sometimes I get a note that a set has been shipped, sometimes not, but they always seem to get here. Anyway, you say that now, but one of those Vanguard sets is said to be ready to go by Christmas.......!

Still celebrating the life and mourning the death of the great Benny Golson

Pretty sure the artists involved did the work with the understanding they wouldn't get paid?? But regardless, I've definitely preordered this one!

Somewhat off topic, but Serling wrote the screenplay for "Seven Days in May," a wonderful movie!

Me too. Disc 1.

A long and marvelous life, well lived. RIP.

Even though I've been on the board for, what, 20 years, I'm still a "community regular," sorta like Norm in "Cheers."

Mosaic will usually sell the booklet separately if you ask.
