king ubu Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 That has happened before several times ... I guess they stumble over another few dozen copies of a box they assume had sold out and just put it back up for a moment. I stroke lucky with the Herman Capitol box that way. Though I really wish the Art Hodes and the Commodores and the studio Roulette Basie would turn up again Quote
sidewinder Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 The Ellington Newport 58 is back.. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks to jeffcrom and Alex for your advice. I will think it over....quickly! I agree - valued advice. After much thought, I've just ordered the Bechet set. MG Quote
miles65 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Posted January 21, 2013 The Ellington Newport 58 is back.. Get it while you can. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 The Ellington Newport 58 is back.. Get it while you can. Advice taken. I've just snagged a copy and also gone for the Cohn/Newman/Green, Bechet and Pendulum Selects whilst they are still around. Quote
king ubu Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 I'm playing my Cohn/Newman/Green right now ... also had to get the Pendulum on top of that, was good on the rest. The Ellington single is nice, but I still wouldn't want to miss the expanded edition of the actual concert as a companion!Oh, and as usual I even posted in the that announced to the world that the Basie Verve box was running low, so everything's okay Quote
David Ayers Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Did you get much out of the Basie box? It was too much of an OK thing for me, just a few key tracks which get lost in the mix a bit - to me and in my way of working. Quote
king ubu Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Yes, I enjoy some of it very much. I think Roulette Basie is overall a bit more to my liking, but the early sessions with Quinichette are mighty enjoyable and the band with Gus Johnson might have been the best edition of the NT band ever ... so, yes indeed! But the eight CDs do have some sameness and I'd probablly not want to listen to it all in one day. Quote
David Ayers Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Just put on disc one while I cook! Could do without the alt takes but otherwise pretty good. I guess smaller doses are the answer... Quote
Sandman Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 I have done so as well, plus the suddenly back Onzy! Thanks to jeffcrom and Alex for your advice. I will think it over....quickly! I agree - valued advice. After much thought, I've just ordered the Bechet set. MG Quote
David Ayers Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 I wonder if they regret not licensing the Young/Basie for longer or for more sets. That was twice now come back on Last Chance but it disappears in a heartbeat. One of the few sets maybe that doesn't just sit quietly in a warehouse accumulating dust? Quote
RiRiIII Posted February 1, 2013 Report Posted February 1, 2013 Just received Cohn/Newman/Green, Bechet and Pendulum; I am playin Pendulum that I have ner heard of; simply stunning! Alex Quote
king ubu Posted February 1, 2013 Report Posted February 1, 2013 Just received Cohn/Newman/Green, Bechet and Pendulum; I am playin Pendulum that I have ner heard of; simply stunning! Alex So you got the same ones from the whole list that I got ... only played the former myself, but the Lieb/Beirach was already a huge and pleasant surprise, and I also recently got hold of the ECM LP of "Lookout Farm" ... I guess I just love that period of Liebman's work! Quote
John Tapscott Posted February 1, 2013 Report Posted February 1, 2013 Just received Cohn/Newman/Green, Bechet and Pendulum; I am playin Pendulum that I have ner heard of; simply stunning! Alex I agree. I received Pendulum 10 days ago and it's and excellent set which never seems to get much notice. Quote
Clunky Posted February 1, 2013 Report Posted February 1, 2013 Just received Cohn/Newman/Green, Bechet and Pendulum; I am playin Pendulum that I have ner heard of; simply stunning! Alex Good to hear, I added Pendulum to my small order. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 1, 2013 Report Posted February 1, 2013 I'm hovering by the post-box for these 3 Selects like a puppy waiting for the master's paper ! Quote
Clunky Posted February 2, 2013 Report Posted February 2, 2013 I'm hovering by the post-box for these 3 Selects like a puppy waiting for the master's paper ! Nipper, hope the analogy does fully realise itself. Mosaic deserves to survive ! Quote
sidewinder Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 'Pendulum' Mosaic Select now on Last Chance.. Quote
mjzee Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 Question re the Paul Chambers Mosaic Select: I have the 1987 Bass On Top and the Paul Chambers Quintet Connoisseur releases. Is the sound on the Mosaic Select appreciably better? Quote
J.A.W. Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 Mosaic's "Running Low/Last Chance" page has been updated: http://www.mosaicrecords.com/lastchance.asp Last Chance The Complete Roost Sonny Stitt Studio Sessions (#208) J.J.

king ubu Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 Glad to be on the safe side for once ... time to grab all those Selects you still want, I assume. Quote
Justin V Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) For anyone who doesn't already have them, the Paul Chambers ($14.49) and Andrew Hill ($8.99!!!) sets are both available for download on Amazon as part of the Capitol Vaults Jazz Series. There are several other Mosaic Selects available as well, including Don Pullen ($12.49), Dexter Gordon ($10.49), John Patton ($14.49), Randy Weston ($18.99), Art Pepper ($17.99), Bobby Hutcherson ($15.49), Bennie Green ($17.49) and Bud Shank/Bob Cooper ($23.99). The series also includes the full-length Bobby Hackett ($39.99), Gene Krupa/Harry James ($66.49) and Joe Pass ($42.49) sets. EDIT: Without looking up the other OOP sets, it's also worth noting that the Carmell Jones set is available for $15.49. Edited May 15, 2013 by Justin V Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) Running Low Mosaic Select: Andrew Hill (MS-016) Is that heart palpitations I'm feeling??!!! By total coincidence -- last week, when I pre-ordered the Woody Shaw Muse box, I also ordered a "safety" copy of the Hill BN Select -- which is the very first time I've ever done anything like that (at least with a Mosaic). Truth is, I can't imagine ever accidentially bungling my only copy of this material (and being able to survive without it). Edited May 15, 2013 by Rooster_Ties Quote
king ubu Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 well, the good thing about Selects is they're no good to use as drawing boards for kids in the back of the car Quote
sidewinder Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 Looks like I'll have to stick an order in for the Mulligan and the McCoy.. Quote
