Mosaic sent me a catalogue!

[David Ayers]

'Annual Edition 2013'

Haven't seen one for years - once the euromosaics started I bought mainly those and I guess I dropped off the list.

I feel almost giddy.

On the flip side, I got a catalog and haven't looked at it. I've been preordering sets for five years or so and reading the website and catalogs mean little to me and I used to pore over them years ago.

But that is also a reflection of the current state of my life.

I got one too. I stopped getting them after moving house last year, although I've ordered a few sets since. I emailed and asked to be put back on the mailing list. Now I'm wondering if Mosaic publishes quarterly catalogues or if it's just this annual one.

[Leeway]

I got mine and was also a bit surprised. But it got me thinking about the Clifford Jordan box so it is now on my wish list for Christmas.

And not just any Mosaic catalogue - Woody Shaw is on the cover

[king ubu]

well, Mosaic sent me a big box, too ... but that one's less unexpected, I guess

It's just their regular magazine - only it's only coming out once a year now. Economy measure.

I actually read it, because it's been so long, and decided to get the Diz Verve/Philips before it does a bunk.

Diz Mosaic is a whole lot of trumpet. I enjoy it quite a lot.

I got mine, too. Didn't know if they had pared down the mailing list or just reduced the number of catalogs being sent. Sounds like it's the 2nd reason.

Exactly my thoughts. Only a long while ago. Maybe a half year back or a whole. I don't know if what I got was the 2013 or the 2012 edition.

Now I see it was the 2012 annual edition, with Mingus on the cover instead of Clifford Jordan. So that's how it's standing now: brochure reduced to annual edition.

Yes, you can understand it. But if there are fewer, maybe more get read and spur purchases. I can't be the only one

I used to collect them, but decided that it wasn't worth it and recycled them a few years ago when I moved.

Same here ... kept every fifth or tenth, plus some early ones I got from brownie. Guess I'll hang on the ones I've not trashed so far (but they're lost amongst other stuff).

Got the new one today as well.

Received mine today. It must have been costly shipping these globally.
