scooby Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 Picked up all the Skyscrapers volumes of Elvin Jones with George Coleman on vinyl. Nice hearing those two together. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 don't notice this on my old Manhattan-era CD. Wonder if they used a faulty copy of the tapes. It's not a tape issue. You can hear Kenny Burrell play his lick exactly one revolution ahead of whats coming next. It is very, very low in volume almost buried in the noise floor. But on high sensitivity speakers you can make it out. Since Mule is the softest song on side one that is where it's most obvious. Other than that I like the way the reissue sounds, it has really nice transient snap and dynamics. that sounds like print through on the tape. Quote

They have a photo of the master tape on their website and speaking to one of the company producers that is the one they used. I wonder if it is something that occurred recently with the tape?

Ok I hear it on my copy too; never noticed it before...gee thanks for pointing it out so I can be annoyed each time I play this record now At least I can only really hear it on "mule"...now I'm curious to hear an original pressing.

Clunky Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 Not one I know but Lake is seriously talented and nice guy. A friend played a gig with him a decade ago and reported that he was incredibly supportive . Always liked his music before that but my respect for him only increased . If he appears on a date ,I'm interested . Quote
JohnS Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 Bob Wilber/Kenny Davern - Soprano Summit (World Jazz). Really enjoyed this one tonight. Looks like this one crossed the Atlantic twice. It has a UK copyright import label. Quote

colinmce Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 I've been eyeing the reissue of that one. Seems foolish to ask you if its "worth" the $23... Quote
clifford_thornton Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 The Cacophonic pressings I've heard are a little noisy but so are the originals... really heavy music as you might imagine. Free Jazz is a little more structured composition-wise (ironically), whereas Le Nouveau Jazz is pretty nasty/wooly. Quote
