mjazzg Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 Just now, sidewinder said: I have given the Pure Pleasure of 'The Descendents of Mike and Phoebe' another spin this morning. First thing to say - this is a really nice album, classy stuff. After an initial spin I put it on the VPI record cleaning machine- definitely benefited, with more richness in the mid-range. Maybe these Pallas pressings benefit from this post-manufacture, quite noticeable improvement. Thanks, fabulous album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 (edited) Just digging out Andrew Hill 'Compulsion' (BN New York mono) to spin - spurred by reading a review of a 1967 'return from NYC' Chicago concert written by John Litweiler for 'Jazz Monthly' back in the day. Hill was with trio and special guests Roscoe Mitchell and Wilbur Ware. He switched to soprano sax on a few numbers, shown in one of the photos. Sam Rivers had been due to play as well but didn't make it. Interesting ! Edited June 8 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, all musicians/bandleaders owned their music & publishing with Strata-East, so I'd think that to do a program like this properly something would have to be worked out with the artists as well.

You wouldn't think that brand new LPs would yield AQ benefits from cleaning. But they often do! (Even for a guy like me with less-than-ideal hearing.)

Nah, this is good stuff. After initial doubts I quite like her. The sax is marvellous. She snores again at 3:32 The farts are here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
