ATR Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 For anyone waiting to see reactions to the box, buy the About Times and decide on the Mosaic as a result. The ATs and more are wonderful. Didn't I see that Air Time is still in print too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavSJ Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Fantastic news! Definitely a MUST have, even if I already have the Columbia/Very Very Circus stuff.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 For anyone waiting to see reactions to the box, buy the About Times and decide on the Mosaic as a result. The ATs and more are wonderful. Chuck's right these are fine releases . I have the LPs. Sound quality is excellent. Music is excellent. These will nicely complement the contents of the Mosaic box.

Peter Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 I'm a longtime Threadgill fan who never manged to hear New Air with Andrew Cyrille until recently. Snatched a live radio broadcast of Rankweil 3/19/86 (Threadgill, Fred Hpkins & Cyrille) off of dime a dozen and just listened to it yesterday. Wow!!! A side of Threadgill I'd always wanted to hear! Extended soloing. More dense, driving and rythmic than Air. Great stuff. Would love to hear Hofheim from a few days earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 There's a good article on Threadgill in the November issue of The Wire! Just bought and read it yesterday - I guess I'll have to pre-order this box now, sounds really like a ton of great music! I only have a very sketchy knowledge of Threadgill so far: Nessa Air, one of the Columbias, a bunch of boots... and recently got the two ATR CDs, silly I skipped the vinyl - will that one come out on CD as well? I think it says so on the website, but are there any news about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATR Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Seems like Threadgill is everywhere these days, even though he has always been with us. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/08/arts/mus...gill&st=cse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm trying to make sense of what will be on the Threadgill Mosaic, and if I'm reading the Mosaic website correctly, these are the correct album/sessions for the set: Live at Montreux 1978 Open Air Suite Air Lore X-75 vol. 1 X-75 vol. 2 (never released) You Know The Number Easily Slip Into Another World Rag, Bush and All Carry The Day Makin' A Move Where's Your Cup Is this what everyone else is thinking?

Head Man Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Has anyone got any inside info on when the new Threadgill boxset will actually be issued. It's 'early 2010' now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazaro Vega Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 ditto the About Times. "When Was That" was the first record I played on the air here at Blue Lake back in 1983. It was originally known as "Fanfare and Celebration," which it is. Every March 1st for the last 26 years I've played "When Was That" in celebration of playing "When Was That" on the radio for the first time March 1, 1983. Need to replace my lp copy, though: it's about turned white. Can't have that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it doesn't say it on the website, this has been pushed to at least mid-2010 because Mosaic has yet to finalize all the licensing agreements.

Although it doesn't say it on the website, this has been pushed to at least mid-2010 because Mosaic has yet to finalize all the licensing agreements. Frankly, I'm surprised Mosaic would go so far as to announce a set if they hadn't secured all the rights. Isn't that the very first thing you'd do? Your customer base is already a little gnarly about catalog availability so why run the risk of further antagonizing it by having to pull the plug on a much anticipated release? I'm not at all impugning your credibility, but can you tell us where you got this information? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call them frequently for info, or just to shoot the you know what. Frankly, I had the same reaction as you did at first. I asked why it was announced on the site, and was told that although they are relatively certain they will obtain necessary licensing, the process takes much longer than any of us non-business types here might think. Does this work for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't have posted that information without having gotten it directly from the source. Keeping websites up to date is not a high priority in tough economic times. That being said, Mosaic does a better than average job. I have a feeling that we'll see just a handful of reissues from Mosaic over the next couple of years.

Head Man Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thanks for the update, Jetman. What a disappointment, I'd been really looking forward to getting this set soonest. Ah well, such is life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave James Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 I sent a note to Mosaic asking for the latest on the Henry Threadgill box. Here's their response: We are waiting for approvals and our best guess at the moment would be mid-year. Regards, Mosaic Records I guess that's good news, although the word approvals could be subject to multiple interpretations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 This just dawned on me - don't think it has been mentioned. Air's first recording for Novus was Open Air Suit. The notes say "One piece out of the suit was omitted for recording purposes due to the fact that an lp can only contain so much music. However, Trummps Room 201 Bed 3 will be forthcoming on our next future recording." Might it have been recorded at the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
