JSngry Posted June 8, 2020 Author Report Posted June 8, 2020 I liked it a lot more by the time it was over. The opening things just seemed kinda weeeeyascreee but then they stopped that and started doing something else, and THAT was very good! I mean, I shouldn't be surprised, here it is almostĀ 50+ years later and people still be chasin' dat trane, this was less that 5 years later. But then as now, there's no place to go with that other than a weaker version of what already was. But they figured that out themselves, right? And right on the gig apparently! Quote

jazzbo Posted June 9, 2020 Report Posted June 9, 2020 I finally picked up this release, which is an amazing concert recording from Amsterdam 1964, and some of the best Garner I've heard. A very handsome reissue package as well. Erroll Garner "Night Concert" Octave Records/Mack Avenue cd Quote
jazzbo Posted June 9, 2020 Report Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Now playing The earlier of two Sony LP facsimile cd editions I have of this favorite recording, this one SuperBit Mapping 20 bit (the other that I have is a DSD remaster, and I also have the Mobile Fidelity SACD).
