That mix is probably as good as it will be, unfortunately. There's an interesting writeup on all this in the new Wheeler biography (excellent). It was an early 8-track desk and there was strange placement of players and lots of bleed-through between tracks (Oxley in particular). The first mix was a disaster so Kenny brought Bob Cornford in to rework it, which did miracles apparently. From recollection the Incus LP mix has the same issues.

That’s interesting, thanks Bob. I thought I was being overly critical as a result of listening through my new headphones. The first track in particular is a bit of a mess. Still, a great record.

It took me a while to get around to the ECM titles of Dave Holland. I heard a few when they were first released and they just didn’t click with me, but the past few years I realize how vital and interesting they are.

This one I like a lot!

I managed to catch Dave's quintet for several years in a row at the Regattabar in Cambridge, MA and they never failed to amaze me. Year in and year out, the music was incredible. I was so bummed out when Dave broke that group up.
