I imagine that someone was cleaning out someone else’s place and had the where-with-all to preserve the collection in a unique way.
Perfect for a listening party in the beautiful berkshires.

Great reading this quote. Lit.

It reminds me of the casual poker game you managed to scarf up with unsuspecting friends a few years back.

As the years go by, it’s nice to know that some good things linger.

Who finds Mosaic sets at the dump (or really anywhere else)? More details, please.

I would be curious to know what Mosaic boxes they were apart from the Mobley (which is great) and Ellington?

I was looking through a jazz record collection a few years ago (all ’70s and ’80s reissues, so no good Al-like story), but saw a shelf of the Mosiac sets, so was excited that there may be some of the good ones and redeem my trip. Then I picked them up, and felt (and saw) that they were almost all CD sets. What a bummer They would be great to have for free, but not when you’re hoping for vinyl!
