Thanks for the advisory - I've been meaning to get hold of that Braxton set for some time so pounced while it was still possible. Would have hated to miss that one. Also gone for a copy of that Roy Ayers single on Mighty Quinn to squeeze in within the shipping limit.

Wonder if the Braxton really sold that well (that would be cool - and with all the (justified, I find!) hype around these recordings and their long unavailability, I guess it's possible) or if the deal runs out?

Either way, glad to have that box!

Braxton now gone !

Monk 'It Club' vinyl also now in Last Chance

I missed out on a full set of the Braxton - got 6 disc partial set from Mosaic, which was good of them. Bit disappointed but I guess I can't be totally. Maybe able get those missing discs one day.

[sidewinder]

I guess Jazz Messengers still have it in stock in Europe?

Out of curiosity, how did they charge for a partial like that?  Did it include the booklet and outer box?  Which discs are you missing?

[Jazzsphere2005]

Well they reduced the price per disc and then only charged me for the number of discs. Booklet and Outer box included. Just first 2 discs missing I think. Will see when it arrives.

Once again - JM is an alternative Mosaic universe/time machine. Always good to know !

The Charles Tolliver Big Band select now on last chance. When this one is gone there are only two selects left: The Woody Herman 60's set and the Boogie Woogie set.

That Tolliver Big Band set is predictably good - for anyone out there still procrastinating on this one...

As much as I love Tolliver I've never warmed to his BB stuff. There's a harshness that I have trouble getting past.

The Complete Clef/Mercury Rec. Of Oscar Peterson Trio is now gone.  I'm disappointed as I was going to order this today.  

[David Ayers]

Cue the graphic...

[JSngry]

[dougcrates]

Actually I was waiting for payday.  

[miles65]

Just added on the running low list:

Thelonious Monk/John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall LP

Novus & Columbia Recordings of Henry Threadgill & Air (#247)

[sidewinder]

Damn...

[David Ayers]

Sign of age that what seem to me like "new" sets are expiring right left and center...

Always wondered how that Monk/Trane LP sounded with such long timings.

Probably get it on eBay.  Resale value on Mosaic sets has fallen through the floor.

I hope that you find the last two discs eventually.  I had the first two discs of the Buck Clayton set and was ecstatic when i was able to find the whole set for a good price a few years later.

The Monk/Trane sounds fine. IIRC it has totally different mastering to the CD version for which Thelonious Jr. was responsible. Again if IIRC the CD mastering came in for some criticism - I'm completely happy with the LP edition.
