Alice Coltrane's albums are the only ones on which I like Sanders' playing, I must admit.

All is well. I probably was too tired when I thought there was a discrepancy.

R.I.P. Saw him live once or twice, not my favourite music, but his performance was convincing.

When I went to sleep last night- very beautiful music. -

There was an article in disc'ribe, the magazine Michael Cuscuna and David Wild ran at the time of their Coltrane discography, that already stated there were no tapes to be found. -
No, the Prestige had a quartet session with Larry Bunker von vibes.

The laser unit of my Marantz SACD player started malfunctioning after 17 years. Replacements hard to find and you need a competent technician. A costly procedure. New players are one grand or more.

In the case of we-all-know-who it may well be.

Got a copy a few months ago, will listen again when I have my morning coffee. I have this version:

Yes, please do. This is tough for any music lover, but please remember the forum rules. There are places to discuss political matters, although it leads nowhere in most cases.

That's the response I always get. Then please explain to me why we hear a difference. And how does error correction react to changes in the data it reads. The signal reading is improved. Like removing a fingerprint or the like. With Exact Audio Copy you copy the flaws, too, possibly.

There are special alcohol based sprays for CD cleaning and treatment. Some are really costly. Sometimes they work wonders with skipping discs, and they can improve the soundstage, depending on your player. Many consider this voodoo, but I trust my ears, and my wife confirmed what I was hearing during before/after comparisons. It is just 0s and 1s, but a cleaner data signal can make a difference.

That looks like a nice one. Found a cheap copy on discogs and ordered. -
That's my experience, too.

There is no guarantee hat the order of the matrix numbers represents recordings order. Many matrix numbers were attributed after the fact, Columbia often numbered the tracks in the order on the LP sides, even when recorded on separate days. Verve and others re-used matrix numbers when tunes were re-done on a later session. There are many opportunities where errors can occur. The Blue Note numbering system is pretty foolproof as take numbers were assigned in recording order. Musicians' recollections is another matter.

External CD drives are inexpensive. I had to get one when I had to buy a new computer five years ago. I had an external CD/DVD burner long before that. CD prices vary: If you are searching for rare items the price tags are astronomical. Add to that the high shipping fees and customs fees and some items I would like to have are out of my budget. I recently found a Venzuelean CD from my wish list that is only 20 bucks, but the shipping costs would be four times as high, not including import taxes. Crazy. A friend of mine with an expensive high end system including high resolution streaming simply does not want to plaster his walls with shelves. Looking at my living room walls I can see his point. And I was surprised at the enormous catalogue of his streaming service. Many rare jazz items that never saw a CD reissue. We did our evening on Cal Tjader completely by streaming. And the sound quality was better than any of my LPs or CDs. All high resolution. Only disadvantage is that often the liner notes etc. are missing.
