jazzbo Posted July 30 Posted July 30 I really relish the early morning cool and calm. This is my favorite temperature zone. Listening to this new one from Lewis a second time. It’s mastered loud, but turning down the gain on my Decware ZBIT fixed that.

jazzbo Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Miles Davis “Round About Midnight” 2 SACD set from Sony Japan 2026, disc 2 Sounds really good in the SACD format, and very nice 7" packaging. Reissues live recordings from the Newport Jazz Festival on July 17, 1955 (VOICE OF AMERICA) #1, and a live performance in Pasadena on February 18, 1956. Quote

John Tapscott Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Listened to this yesterday. This Herman Herd is incredibly "hot." Good sound for the era, too. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted July 30 Posted July 30 I especially like the first track A slow blues with a killer solo by Sonny Clark! Quote

Her instagram page suggests the opposite, here's a recent article https://www.jazztimes.com/features/profiles/jazz-after-the-fires-hailey-niswanger-on-starting-over/ (from when her house burned down last year, so it's a bit one-sided in topic) see also here https://www.maesunmusic.com/ Edited July 30 by Niko Quote
Coda Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Thanks Nico. I went to her website and she must have stopped updating it. https://haileyniswanger.com/discography I'm glad to hear that she's still performing. Quote
jazzbo Posted July 30 Posted July 30 (edited) Now the stereo disc in this 2 SACD set from Sony Japan, Miles Davis “Milestones” in the great 7" packaging. This music has been in rotation since about 1977 . . . I still enjoy the heck out of this album, first in fake stereo, for so many years in mono, and recently in stereo.
