jazzbo Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 So nice to finally have an SACD version of this release crucial to my listening world. John Coltrane “Crescent” Japan Universal SHM-SACD Sound is excellent; my now favorite digital version. Quote
jazzbo Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 (edited) I’m listening to session takes of “American Beauty” via the Grateful Dead “Angel’s Share” release. The fidelity of the sound is really amazing, especially the vocal tracks, which are generally more recessed than this in releases. However. . . the singing is often cringeworthy. . . .

Holy Ghost Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 Wowwww! Everything, everybody said here about this record is on par. Picked up the Japenese mini-lp Freedom edition at Reckless Records when I was in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. Sounds great on my system. Quote
jazzbo Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 A stuffy morning! Looking forward to the final day of in-laws visiting from Austin. Starting off with. . . Barney Wilen “Zodiac” reissue LP Quote
jazzbo Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 J&K “Stone Bone” A&M/CTI LP (RSD release) I like this one the more I play it! Quote
Peter Friedman Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 I don't believe I have heard any better Eddie Lockjaw Davis than on this album!!!!! It is good to hear Snooky Young in one of his few small group settings.. This Basie small group session provides an excellent example of what it means to "SWING". Quote
