Clunky Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) While preparing the Ahmad Jamal CD box set due in 2009, it occurred to us that an 8-CD set doesn’t have to give birth to a back-busting box of twelve 180-gram LPs; it can also give birth to a double-album reissue of both LPs of Ahmad Jamal at The Pershing, the groundbreaking albums that generated such influential hits as “Poinciana.” Freed from thinking that Mosaic LPs have to mirror out large CD sets, we’ve engaged in a treasure hunt coming up with new title ideas like reissuing those two magnificent Lucky Thompson-Oscar Pettiford albums on ABC-Paramount or Duke Ellington’s 1963 masterpiece “Afro Bossa.” How about the complete Thelonious Monk Live At The It Club on LP for the first time, beautifully remixed from the original three-track masters? We’ve only just begun. Best Vinyl Shop a new and exciting Mosaic initiative, Edited November 10, 2008 by Clunky Quote
blajay Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 Yes! This is what I've been waiting for--I'd love Live at the It Club on Vinyl. Although, I like those backbreaking sets of 10 LPs... Quote
sidewinder Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 Well, I for one would have gone for a ball-busting 15LP set of Ahmad Jamal but good anyway to see that Mosaic has not totally given up on the vinyl ! Quote
paul secor Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 I'm interested, but I'll have to see exactly what they're going to issue before I get too excited. Quote
