With my limited experience I would tend to agree with him as far as just the sound of one instrument distorting as a result of a transfer. But my experience is limited to mixing and transferring 4 track tape into a cdr format. The flip side of that is that it introduces the possibility that the saxophone distorted into the mike or tape at the session at that one point.

Cassandra Wilson “Jump World” Winter&Winter Records reissue. Haven’t heard this one in a while! From 1990 and sounds like it. No judgment–I was playing Simmons electronic drums as well as my Sonor kit then and thought this cd was very very cool in the JMT edition I had with this cover:

I think he is saying that there is no real tested way of transferring to digital that would cause distortion in the sound of the saxophone alone. If distortion were caused by a transfer the sonic character of the distortion would be more than one instrument specific.

Arrived from cdjapan.co.jp last night, a Helen Merrill recording that has eluded me until now. So glad this one was reissued! Helen Merrill “Imagination” Lob Records/Solid Records Japan cd Bass – Hideo Kawahara Drums – Tim Horner Piano – Kosei Uchida Vocals – Helen Merrill This is a reissue of a reissue I believe, it contains the three instrumental trio tracks that were not on the original release.

Antonio Carlos Jobim Songbook, Vol. 2, Lumnar cd

Well, it cost about 35 dollars or so back then--I guess whoever was going to buy was going to buy it. . .or not.

I have no idea who determined what or where or when. This one I listened to says remastered by RVG right in the insert. Nor do I remember a US cd that has this configuration of the first two sessions Powell did for Blue Note complete in session order.

I believe the entire 50 items in this series were produced by Cuscuna. Perhaps it was a special request from Japan for RVG remastering, after all the RVG series was later initiated by Japan. According to this page the two Miles Davis volumes, the Clifford Brown and (surprisingly) Juju were also remastered by RVG. https://www.discogs.com/label/441028-Blue-Note-CD-Super-50

Keith Ingham, Bobby Gordon, Hal Smith “Music from the Mauve Decades” Sackville cd Music from the 1900s and 1910s played by this great piano/clarinet/drums trio.

In from a discogs seller. “The Amazing Bud Powell” Blue Note Japan cd CP32-5241 from 1986 reissuing the complete “Vol.1” and alternates in recording order, remastered by Rudy Van Gelder. Sounds really good! Music is of course phenomenal with many bebop greats on board.

I can go either way but I generally welcome a bass player on an orgainist's date. Bass pedals are cool. . .contrabass violins and electric bass are more intriguing to me.

Baden Powell "The Legendary MPS Albums" MPS 2 cd set followed by Miles Davis "Sketches of Spain" Mobile Fidelity SACD Lucy's home and it's our seventh anniversary so this may be all I get to listen to today.

Yes

Yes, I have that, and unlike a number of hathuts out now this seems to be a licensed product from the estate.

I'm pretty sure the Ayler has all been out on cd before.

Shades of the purported incident that caused Bud's problems.

Absolutely. And it's a shame it is divisively so political.
