Today's listening:

Howard Lucraft 'Showcase For Modern Jazz' (Decca DG mono)

Colin Bates Trio 'Brew' (UK Fontana, stereo)

Don Rendell Quintet 'Space Walk' (UK Columbia, Lansdowne Series)

John Cameron 'Off Centre' (Deram, mono)

Woody Shaw - Master of the Art

Woody Shaw - Night Music

That 'Master of the Art' is pretty representative as to how Woody's live groups sounded circa 1982/1983 (along with 'Lotus Flower').

Miles Davis "kind of blue" (Columbia, stereo 6-eye). I recently sold my mono 6 eye and Canadian pressing 6-eye as I decided I did not need 8 different versions of this record.  I find the stereo edition to sound the best..a few clicks at the beginning of each side but quite clean afterwards. I also kept the 50th anniversary vinyl box edition, a 70s Japanese pressing, and the SACD which sounds incredible.

I had a 6 eye mono & a 6 eye stereo. I preferred the stereo by a lot. Then I picked up the Legacy 50th Anniversary Edition and I liked that even more. Lastly, I picked up the Newbury Comics limited edition blue pressing and that one has become my "go to" pressing. The funny thing is, the mono that is getting the big bucks these days is by far the worst-sounding LP version of this that I heard.

Yeah,  I didn't hold onto the singles - don't think they're as good as that first LP, to be honest. 

Side two of the Cros kicks ass.

Now:

Various Artists - The Other Side of Blue Note 1500 Series - (Toshiba/Blue Note, JP)

wrapping up LP 1 of this fine 3 LP compilation, probably rendered useless by all the nice augmented CDs we've got now, but it's still an excellent overview of 1950s Blue Note material, all of it left off of the original titles.

That Toshiba 3LP box is nice. Time to dig out !
