medjuck Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 IIRC the first cd release of Handy is all alternate takes and none of the originals. (Well, maybe that's an exaggeration.) This Mosaic should decrease the value of that cd which, I believe, had become a bit of a collector's item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmonahan Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 Legacy did such a fine job with the Satch Columbias late in the 90s, including several alternates. I'll buy the Mosaic because, well, I buy Mosaics, but I do wonder how much that is really new and valuable will be on this one. gregmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 There were about six complete alternates between those two Legacy cds of the "Plays" albums. There were more alterantes on the first cd releases. Still from the timing that Riccardi has given there's considerably more than twice that additionally on the new releases, and additional material from the Real Ambassadors. As to how valuable they are. .. that's a subjective thing. I bet I find them valuable; I'm going to preorder when I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) I am sure they will. It seems the set will include the entire The Real Ambassadors material, not just the tracks with Satchmo. In this case I might buy it.

Jazzcat28 Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Got an email yesterday that it was sent to the warehouse for shipment. Hoping to see it by end of next week. I’m pleasantly surprised that this set didn’t have any release date movement. Nice work Mosaic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
