Kevin Bresnahan Posted October 29, 2023 Report Posted October 29, 2023 Chris Botti - Vol. 1 (Blue Note). Jazzier than his usual stuff but still skates really close to the smoother side of things. I am enjoying it but I don't think it'll be put on when I'm looking for some foot tapping. Quote

Clifford Jordan with dream bands. I love it. Have to say that all EU and American pressing plants could learn a lot from this Japanese manufacturer. Vinyl is cleaner than clean and flatter than flat. Even the Tone Poets and Acoustic Sounds records come with dust and dirt these days but on this one: not a slightest spot. okay Glass Bead Games might be a slightest bit better but I have a huge soft spot for this excellent release.

I prefer this album to GBG and have a UK original but that looks very tempting Quote

It’s a great reissue but it is a vinyl rip. A great sounding one though. Quote

I’d say this will probably end up at Honest John as well won’t it? Quote

Listening to my UK original it sounds pretty good so may not need to upgrade It has finally prompted me to order the Pure Pleasure GB Games. I'm never sure about Pure Pleasures as I find the bass is often a bit too boosted so 🤞 Quote

mjazzg Posted October 29, 2023 Report Posted October 29, 2023 Thanks, I shall just pretend it's not a PP release when I listen the first time 😄 Now onto Clifford Jordan - Inward Fire [Muse, 1978] Up there with the Strata Easts in my opinion but not in market value thankfully Quote
