Chambers track question

[rostasi]

Listening to "Eastbound" from the Paul Chambers Select

and I don't remember this cut doing a fast fade at the end of the piece.

I thought the LP version, Chambers' Music, had a clean ending

(which I think is more effective). It's a bit annoying really.

Has my mind gone eastbound?

(Well, actually...)

Just listened to my 1989 CD version. While it does fade slightly before the abrupt ending, I sort of get the impression that the abruptness of the ending was by design. Kind of a weird tune to begin with.

Same on the LP issue I have (Paul Chambers/John Coltrane 'High Steps' BN twofer). 'Eastbound' clocks in at 4:20.

Thanks guys for checking...

Doesn't the tune just scream for an abrupt ending?

Imagine it without the fade - BAM - done! Seems like the way it shoulda gone...

here's the last 30 seconds:

Eastbound
