ASNL77 Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 I hate starting a thread about a set which I am sure must have been discussed before but I can't find anything on that one. Now that 'Consequence' is about to be reissued, is there anything on the Mosaic set which has not been released yet or that is OOP at the moment? Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 Not sure what's still in print but High Frequency has not been reissued. Quote

ASNL77 Posted September 11, 2005 Author Report Posted September 11, 2005 Thank you Claude. I have just won it on Ebay for $125 and I am looking forward to that one as all the McLean music I own was recorded either before 1964 or after 1966! I have been waiting to grab this one for a while and I am pleased with the price. Quote
vibes Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 That's a good price. Even though I paid a little more than double that a few years ago, I've never regretted it. A very nice box, indeed. Quote
ASNL77 Posted September 11, 2005 Author Report Posted September 11, 2005 (edited) For those interested, there is another set signed by Jackie McLean here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mosaic-150-Jackie-Mc...1QQcmdZViewItem Edited September 11, 2005 by ASNL77 Quote
bertrand Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 Two of the 6 LPs in this set have yet to be issued domestically as single CDs: It's Time and High Frequency. It's Time has been available on CD in Japan; High Frequency nowhere. Bertrand. Quote
jlhoots Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 The McLean is one of my top 5 all-time Mosaic sets. Quote
andybleaden Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 (edited) You have got yourself a good set there. I have had it since it came out and feel very much as if it is was a really selection...although I could never understand why they left out the Consequence material ( er sorry I meant Hi Frequency stuff sorry!!!! -_- )...I mean come on! Anyway it was a beauty and a really good treat. I used to listen to it on and off for days upon end and then leave it for months but still go back to it fresh and enjoy it.

Clunky Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 I'm a big fan on McLean's BN output but found the Consequence material to be a bit weak when I heard it and certainly not upto the rest of the material in the box. None the less I'll still be getting the upcoming Conn. Quote
Parkertown Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 I thought Consequence was on there? Quote
andybleaden Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 (edited) I thought Consequence was on there? ← erm yes its offical I am now talkin out a my rear end I meant the other one erm panic HI Frequency ... DOH! I am in the shame of hell at cocking this one up.....which makes the other post re the OCtober conns even more annoying as I have this and I do not need to shred the cdr...( of hi frequency) ....good job I did not!)) Oh its so bloody confusing...why can they not issue the lot via a download thingy like with the verve stuff Edited September 12, 2005 by andybleaden Quote
J.A.W. Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 See Claude's post (#3) above. The Mosaic set includes: It's Time Action Right Now Jacknife Consequences High Frequency Quote
andybleaden Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 See Claude's post (#3) above. The Mosaic set includes: It's Time Action Right Now Jacknife Consequences High Frequency ← You mean it gets worse!!! Facts are hard to use when I have little or no brains I am confusing the two fers now....both of jackknife 2fers were on the mosaic correct? The Hipnosis 2 fer was the old jackie mclean quintet session and one with grachan moncur that saw the light in the moncur box set I will shut up now and please ignore all I have said about consequence, hi frequency,jacknife etc except that they are all very very good Yours humbly meek on issues discogrpahical whilst sat in my office ANdy Quote
andybleaden Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 In fact as punishment I will go home now and have a damn good read of the mosaic booklet! whilst listening to it too! Quote
Parkertown Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 Andy, Perhaps you're thinking of "'Bout Soul" which is missing a couple tracks on the Moncur Select cuz Grachun don't play on 'em... Quote
andybleaden Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 Aha! Panic (for me ) over with. Back home in the comfort of my own home and surrounded by music and not work! The cd I was referring to was Hipnosis from 67 and wasn' t in the Mosaic set. I had a cdr of an lp burn which served until the Grachan Moncur select was issued. I was lucky enough to have had Bout soul both as an lp then as the cd when that came out......but thanks for that anyway...I remember seeing that they only stuck the moncur tracks from this in the select...bit strange but I suppose the Grachan Moncur name leads that to happen Mystery and small Mclean panic over for me Thought for a minute there I had missed a set Goes to show what they have reissued of his over the years though including reissuing all the LT seried with him on (vertigo and consequence)......and the other goodies that sat around for years Now playing Eco from the Mosaic set on my pc to cheer me up after that nasty Blue Note wobble and I feelin damn good I do have to say that this set represents Mosaic at their best for me Quote
Clunky Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 To think I didn't get the Mosaic whilst it was in production just because I had one of the sessions on CD already (Right Now !) . Stupid ,I know but at least I've managed to piece the set together over the years with a mixture of Conns, JRVG, TOCJ and a McMaster. Quote
sjarrell Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 It sorta depends on my mood, but it's usually the best Mosaic set ever. Quote
colinmce Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Wish I could have the Mosaic, but I just snapped up the last of these sessions in one fell swoop over the last few days. Can't wait to hear the material! Quote
fomafomic65 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Posted December 7, 2009 (edited) Wish I could have the Mosaic, but I just snapped up the last of these sessions in one fell swoop over the last few days. Can't wait to hear the material! Well mr.Colinmce you made reappear this tread on purpose to me. For years I have searched for this set, on and off, sometimes repelled by 'ebay craziness' and some foolish price. In these times of crysis with super-euro quotes I had it 'mint' finally. Weird as I found no bid on it, so I had the lowest price. Its cost -Big Euro withstanding- has been close the average nowadays inprint Mosaic Box, shipping included. Well worth occasion!

Shrdlu Posted December 10, 2009 Report Posted December 10, 2009 I have the Mosaic, but it has crap sound and I replaced all of it with a combination of LPs and TOCJ CDs. Marvellous music, of course. I have all Jackie's BN material, including the session with Ornette Coleman, which I like very much, even though normally Ornette is a bore to me. Quote
colinmce Posted December 10, 2009 Report Posted December 10, 2009 Hm, I love Ornette (trumpet & violin playing included) and ultimately dislike the session w/ Jackie. Quote
Indestructible! Posted December 10, 2009 Report Posted December 10, 2009 I have the Mosaic, but it has crap sound... ... normally Ornette is a bore to me. Quote
