andersf Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 (edited) Perhaps this has been covered already. Anyway, I saw on Amazon de a few days ago that the set could be available at the end of August. Bu they seemed a bit uncertain. Does anyone know anything more about it?

Bluesnik Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 (edited) The Farlow and Jazztet sets will be distributed in Europe (by Universal, I assume), just as the Mulligan and Eldridge were before. This was confirmed by Mosaic. Edited August 25, 2004 by Bluesnik Quote
brownie Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 The Tal Farlow Mosaic set is out. Saw copies in Paris today. Quote
Guest Chaney Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 When I spoke to Mosiac earlier today, I was told that the sets generally see European distribution approximately one month after their (US) release. Quote
JohnS Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 The set is on the amazon.uk web site this morning with a release date of early October. Quote
David Ayers Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 (edited) When I spoke to Mosiac earlier today, [...] Mosiac? Is that like the evil parallel universe version of Mosaic who rip off European masterings and refuse to replace faulty discs and dented boxes? It is cheap to pick on a typo, I know. I'm sorry. The amazon.co.uk price is pretty user friendly. Do we know whether the Jazztet is slated for euro-release? Edited September 14, 2004 by David Ayers Quote
Guest Chaney Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 All the really cool people spell it that way. Quote
Bluerein Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 In the Netherlands the box is already available through Universal (already for 2 weeks). I don't get their policy anymore so I won't wonder about it. Cheers, Reinier Quote
andersf Posted September 16, 2004 Author Report Posted September 16, 2004 The Farlow box is scheduled for release in Sweden (according to CDON) on September 27. Quote
king ubu Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 There's one in a store in Zurich, however, they want around 21-22$ per disc. Don't know if it would still be cheaper, with all the custom shit I'd have to pay ordering from the US... ubu Quote
andersf Posted September 16, 2004 Author Report Posted September 16, 2004 The CDON (Swedish) price is about 120 Euro, which is the cost of 7 normal priced CDs in Sweden. If VAT wouldn't be charged, (sometimes happens) then buying straight from Mosaic would be cheaper, otherwise, taking p & p into consideraton, CDON would ship an order for that amount for free, it comes to much about the same.

JohnS Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 The amazon.co.uk price is pretty user friendly. Do we know whether the Jazztet is slated for euro-release? Apparently it will be released. It gets a mention in the Jazztet thread if I remember correctly. Quote

couw Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 amazon.de lists the Jazztet for 123 EUR, scheduled for 21 sept the Farlow is also listed for 123 EUR Quote
J.A.W. Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 amazon.de lists the Jazztet for 123 EUR, scheduled for 21 sept the Farlow is also listed for 123 EUR That's a bit steep, isn't it: the Mosaic price is $119 or €97.50 for each set. I guess the much lower shipping cost within Europe makes up for it, though. Quote

I guess the much lower shipping cost within Europe makes up for it, though. it ships for free within Germany/Austria/Switzerland. No customs either (money nor hassle), so I guess that makes it an even deal. Quote

couw Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 don't forget to frame the pink slip, the other one goes in the box, underneath the CDs. Quote
king ubu Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 don't forget to frame the pink slip, the other one goes in the box, underneath the CDs. I could get it a bit cheaper (around 100 Euros), but I'll definitely have to pay customs (I'd guess for 20 Euros or a bit more), no matter where I get it from. In the end, it might cost about the same as the set I saw in some store here. Btw: Amazon lists the Eldridge for the same prize, so I guess the (also 7CD) Jazztet set will be at that same price as well. ubu Quote
couw Posted September 17, 2004 Report Posted September 17, 2004 btw: Amazon lists the Eldridge for the same prize, so I guess the (also 7CD) Jazztet set will be at that same price as well. yes Quote
Clunky Posted September 17, 2004 Report Posted September 17, 2004 Tal from UK these guys are cheaper Quote

B-) But those Mosaics sold in Europe come with different numbers! My Tal Farlow set (bought for €89 in taxless Andorra) has no individual number but the box spine lists the set as B0002992-02, not the Mosaic MD7-224 regular number. Which makes these sets invaluable items for the Mosaic completists! My Gerry Mulligan Concert Band Mosaic box bore a B0000958-02 number instead of the US Mosaic MD4-221! Discs inside are the regular US Mosaic CDs. Quote
JohnS Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 My "Euro" version arrived today. Curiously the spine of the box says "THE COMPLETE VERVE TAL FARLOW CONCERT BAND SESSIONS" Quote
sidewinder Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 It's the 'Mosaic direct' route for me with this one. I don't like 'Concert Bands' unless they have Gerry Mulligan's name next to them ! Quote
