Brad Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I just called Mosaic and they said there are 220 sets left. They figured (with the usual disclaimers ) that this supply should be good for a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertblues Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Make that 219 sets left...just ordered mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Is the O'Day set like the other Verve sets (Mulligan, Farlow, Hodges) that are also being sold in Europe etc under Universals name? ← The O'Day was not distributed by Universal in Europe, neither was the Hodges or the ones before covering stuff from the Universal vaults. Only the Mulligan, the Farlow, and now the Basie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheldonm Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 #2892 arrived today. I've had this in my sites for awhile - glad for the heads up on this board. When I sometimes train employees I do sessions on making work personally unique. One of the things I do as an illustration is play "Chickory Chick" by Sammy Kaye and after taking comments (always bad) I play the same song by the Gene Krupa band with O'Day's vocal. Not only do people like the song more they actually listen to the lyrics which kind of fits right in with the topic - well almost. Anyone who can take pop schmaltz and make it into jazz is quite special. ← ....and #2908 here today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASNL77 Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 (edited) I have just ordered The Johnson and the O'Day sets! I hate all those on the board who FORCED me to order the O'Day by praising and praising it again! . I could have waited a bit longer but in case the parcel gets lost or there is a problem with a CD, I want Mosaic to be able to come to my rescue! If Mosaic can deliver to the US in 6 hours, no doubt my sets will be here before the weekend! Edited July 28, 2005 by ASNL77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 The Kid Ory set that I ordered Tuesday morning arrived today, and I was a little surprised that the number was so low - 812. I imagine that this will end up being one of the rarest Mosaics. Now I am off to listen to Disc 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine that this will end up being one of the rarest Mosaics. My set is numbered 540 and I ordered it a year or two ago. I guess it's now or never for the Ory set, because if sales have been so low for Mosaic, there's NO chance Verve will ever bother releasing single CDs.

Clunky Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 (edited) I've got a vinyl of the Ory material Red Allen ( Verve France mid 1980s reissue). Decent Dixie material played with plenty of passion but if I'm hesitant over 9 discs of O'Day I'm even less likely to want a similar amount of Ory -- even if he did know Pops.

Jazzmoose Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Finally...a running low thread I can live with! I've had the O'Day set for years, got the JJ a while back, and don't want the Ory. I must be living right for a change! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 you and me both.. although I cop... I only got the Anita about 2 months ago.. but it is NICE NOT to have to panic...

Brad Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Wow, only 100 left, that's pretty amazing. That means they sold 120 in a day. Mosaic must like when it's last chance. That's when they sell a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffro Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I hope you'll pardon my ignorance and my lateness in getting involved in this thread, but...how much of the J.J. Johnson set is otherwise unavailable on CD and how much is otherwise readily available?? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
