Big Beat Steve Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) I certainly hope the do see the Savory set through until its release and marketing in due form (and for an appropriate span of time). That would be a major accomplishment as it makes NEW music available. As for whatever comes afterwards ... big shrug ... (after all that's gone on in recent months you tend to be more and more fatalistic about it ... ) Edited March 7, 2018 by Big Beat Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 I sent a "hello" yesterday and realized my initial mail dates back to late December ... time flies! New job, new life, kinda ... and less present on the interwebs these days, but still dropping by here, every now and then, often just to read though. Either way, it does somehow feel a bit as if the Mosaic era may come to an end (they started doing reissues before that got big, they keep on doing it for a longer time than most did ...) - though I certainly hope to be proven wrong!

sidewinder Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Just received an email from Mosaic to say that the Turrentine set is back in stock and to confirm forthcoming releases for the Wilson and Savory sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the players! Some of my favorite dates in the box were in the vaults for many years, and first appeared on this twofer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 54 minutes ago, mr jazz said: Opinions on the Turrentine set?? Go for it! I don't think you'll experience regrets... also heartened to see that email (which indicates the Wilson is now expected to ship in mid-March, so hopefully not too much more of a wait on that one). I'd also encourage anybody who's been on the fence about the 1932-40 Ellington to jump on that one as well. I just finished listening to that set all the way through again; an amazing stretch of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Haven’t listened to the Turrentine set for awhile but as others have said, it’s worth it to pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a while since I've taken it for a spin, but I'm not recalling any of the sessions being anything less than really great! 👍 👍 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 The Turrentine set is excellent - really nice selection of ‘sessions worthy of a higher profile’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted March 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 You know, I'm looking at the Turrentine, and it's only 80 bucks. Didn't realize there were previously unissued materials involved, not many, but a few. That might be a deal maker for me. Besides, this will put us all one step closer to that Bill Barron set that Cuscuna's surely gonna come out of semi-retirement to drive home to the finish line, one last triumph for unambiguously post-swing Mosaic sets, you go Michael Cuscuna, you GO!

For your sake (and for the sake of a good friend who's a Barron fan and who played with him once), I hope that the Barron set does happen.

JSngry Posted March 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Well, so far it's only happening here on the O-Board, but you know, tell a lie long enough and it becomes the truth... And really, that's a set that should happen. Seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Ayers Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Can’t wait for the Barron. Will it include the unissued date with Don Cherry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 I'd love a Barron set despite having plenty of the likely contents on vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 I was notified that a Mosaic order shipped yesterday. If you can't attend the open house that is coming soon, ask about getting a partial list of what they have available. Michael Cuscuna read my post here and emailed me a list, which I greatly appreciate. I guess that the Teddy Wilson is en route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
