Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Sonny Rollins Way Out West (Contemporary/Analogue Productions) SACD version mastered by Doug Sax. I enjoy these SACDs, as they seem to try and mimic the original LP sound. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 3 Posted March 3 The way-too-short "Way Out West" ended, so it's on to Kenny Dorham's "Live At The Cafe Bohemia" 2-CD set. I'm listening to disc 1 of the Ron McMaster CD set now and it sounds pretty good... well, except for the piano, which sounds a bit off. Sustained notes have a bit of warble. Probably on the master tape. This is coming out as a 3 LP/2 CD Tone Poet reissue soon. I'm going to pass on this one, as I think my old double-CD set will suffice. Sometimes it's good to have lost that upgrade itch. I think I've finally come to realize that my ears are fucked up enough at this point that it's money poorly spent to upgrade anything. That said, even my shitty ears can hear the lousy piano sound here. Quote
HutchFan Posted March 3 Posted March 3 More Ray Drummond: Bass – Ray Drummond Flute, Bass Flute, Alto Flute – Thomas Chapin Trumpet – Randy Brecker Guitar – John Scofield Vibraphone – Steve Nelson Piano – Kenny Barron Drums, Percussion – Marvin "Smitty" Smith Percussion – Mor Thiam Quote
Pepico Jazz Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Ray Nance Huffin’n’Duffin Ray Nance: Trumpet, Violin, Voice Kenny Drew: Piano Ron Matheson: Bass Daniel Humairi: Bass It,s a very nice work. It seems with Amstrong influence in the trumpet and Ellington in album structure. Violin touch add a nice sound to the album. Higly recommended😀 Quote
T.D. Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Reissue of Aketa's Disk release. Despite the weird cover, it's fun listening and definitely interesting. Quote
