RVG sure managed to give that note weight and energy!

Eddie Harris “LIve in Berlin” Timeless/Solid Records cd

Carmen Lundy "Moment to Moment" Arabesque Records cd

I haven't yet.

Went on to disc 5 of “Springtime in New York.” Then Jason Moran, “Artist in Residence” Blue Note cd. Um. Okay. There is some great music here but the added voice reading text and the low level scraping and rustling. . . nah.

Last one today. . . had a few hiccups that I had to clear up today, and this disc is like a comfort food sampler to finish up the day with a calming mood. I love this music! Jose Santos Neto Quinteto “Por Causa de Voce”

My favorite sounding version of this “Monk” title, the Japanese RVG edition from last year. Followed by Jonathan Blake “Trion” disc 2 [IMG]1200×1087 169 KB

What amp did he use?

Andrew Hill “Point of Departure” Blue Note Japan 85th Anniversary UHQCD Not a favorite Blue Note or Hill but it sure sounds good in this edition. Followed by Zoot Sims “Hawthorne Nights” Pablo cd A dectet arranged by Bill Holman and Zoot really stands out. 600×600 123 KB

Végh Quartet “The Art Of Vegh Quartet” 14 cd box set, disc 7–the last of the Beethoven string quartets, recorded 1952. Among my favorite interpretations of the Beethoven string quartets–the later stereo are perhaps even a bit better. 709×584 185 KB

Carmen Lundy “Come Home” Afrasia Productions cd Up early with Fiona the dachshund. Sigh. Great sound on this cd though compensates.

As I sometimes do I followed "Something Blue" with Miles Davis "Kind of Blue." There is so much too this recording, so many times it reveals something new. This time through I was struck by an aspect of the engineering--how whenever one of the horns solos the entrance is boosted, exciting and attention grabbing. Especially Miles--his entrances are so projecting and tonally full. The engineering also reveals how integral I think to the album was Paul's bass playing. He was such a master, especially during this year imo. This time I'm listening to Sony SRCS 9104.

Miles Davis “Porgy and Bess” Columbia, HDTT cdr

There's a cd edition released at this time as well.

Andrew Hill “Compulsion” Blue Note, HDTT cdr

Miles Davis "Volume 1" Blue Note Japan 85th Anniversary UHQCD Includes 3 alternates.

I would buy Tone Poets of LPs from the first fifteen years of Blue Note--that is where the new transfers and mastering would be most interesting to me.

Bobby Hutcherson “Mirage” Landmark cd A great quartet date from '91 with Tommy Flanagan, Peter Washington and Billy Drummond.
