ha, good to know...

Id probably get it for I am a Coltrane completist. And will listen trough the material but if its that bad I’d doubt it comes of the shelves a lot. Definitely go for the cd version.

And consider that, with this being the introduction to the series, the remainder may sound even worse.

It sounds like this is the equivalent of the many live from the last row bootleg LPs of the seventies of supergroups.

Yeah and it might also be an indicator there isn’t much more left on the shelves I guess?

A snippet of "Satellite" has been posted as a short on YouTube. 

 

... listening to it on old laptop speakers via a YT upload obviously not the best set of circumstances for noting the audio quality, but it's pretty much what I expected, based on the Showboat recordings that have circulated for many years now. Also wondering--strange as it may seem--if it ends up being a larger-than-expected and cheaper-than-expected set, or if we get a more distilled/curated four+ disc collection. Buying it day one, whatever form it takes.

That was actually better than what I expected.  I would likely stream something before I bought.
