The Palladium CD issue I had was stereo. Perhaps either label/seller used the cover they had on some hard drive. The stereo spread is okay. Or do we see the dawning of some new mono fetishism? That said, I like mono, the balance often is better than on some early stereo mixes.
The album is nice, Dolphy plays with the same spirit as on the Prestige LP - but this is a totally different lineup. Diaz and Jenkns played on some o the Presige dates, but this seems to be a pickup band using the band name for a one shot record deal. Juan Amalbert probably was not amused.
