Kevin Bresnahan Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Joe Henderson - Double Rainbow (The Music Of Antonio Carlos Jobim) (Verve) Ok, now that I've gotten the fact that I'm spinning this on vinyl out of the way, I have to ask, does anyone else have this? It's a promo, pressed as a limited, numbered edition out of 1,000. This copy I just picked up is number 648. Was this session recorded digitally or analog? If it was recorded in analog, does anyone know if this LP is made from the analog or digital master? BTW, it sounds great. Kevin Edited August 2, 2008 by Kevin Bresnahan Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 Just finished: Duke Jordan - Flight To Jordan (Blue Note) - This is the latest Toshiba/Blue Note pressing. Analog or digital master? I'm still waiting for Cuscuna to find out. Now spinning: Jackie McLean - Consequence (Blue Note) - LT Rainbow LP. Sounds better than other rainbow LPs I've spun. The stereo is well distributed and the bass is almost audible. Up next: Various Artists - Anniversary (Xanadu) Quote

Don't have it though. My guess is that it's a digital master. Now spinning Kenny Wheeler 'Music For Large and Small Ensembles' (ECM, 2LP) Edited August 3, 2008 by sidewinder Quote

kh1958 Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 Earl Hines--Plays the Hits He Missed (Realtime Direct to Disc, German pressing) Clifford Jordan--Hello Hank Jones (East World Direct to Disc, Japanese pressing) Both LPs sound fantastic. Does anyone have any other direct to disc jazz recordings? Quote
sidewinder Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 Both LPs sound fantastic. Does anyone have any other direct to disc jazz recordings? Yes, I've got a few - and they can sound great. Clifford Jordan/Cedar Walton 'The Pentagon', Joe Sample 'The Three' (both East Wind) and the Walt Dickerson on Steeplechase are three that come to mind. Quote
Clunky Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 Just finished: Duke Jordan - Flight To Jordan (Blue Note) - This is the latest Toshiba/Blue Note pressing. Analog or digital master? I'm still waiting for Cuscuna to find out. Up to revise my opinion on TOJJ 6501 Somethin Else Cannonball Adderley from this recent patch. Side 1 was fine and was the basis for my initially positive posting else where on this forum. Side 2 particularly track 2 is marred by very splashy cymbal sound, way to much high end, unlistenable in my view , so back it went . RVG is credit with the remaster which worries me that these may be digi masters, What ever this sounded bad. TOJJ 6502 Cool and Struttin sounds great however, so there you go. For me 50 % hit rate is too low for discs that cost £29 over here, so I'm avoiding these now. How's Duke's one ??? Quote

stuartjewkes Posted August 5, 2008 Report Posted August 5, 2008 Just spun Riley and Tippett's album In Focus for the first time and it was frankly superb. I will be listening to it during my job hunt many times over the coming weeks. Looking forward to the Riley and Byard album I picked up at the same time but I'm off out shortly and don't want to cut my first spin short. Quote

Chalupa Posted August 5, 2008 Report Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) The Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime - (OG 2xLP on SST) I remember buying this when it first came out via mail order. SST records had a spotty, at best, distribution service and their records were very hard to find on the east coast. You usually had to buy the records at shows when their bands were touring. You prayed that the tour came to Philly before they hit NYC because all of the records would be gone if they played NYC first. Edited August 6, 2008 by J.H. Deeley Quote
sidewinder Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 Hank Mobley 'Soul Station' (Music Matters 2x45rpm, stereo). Sounds pretty good in stereo and the new sleeves are Quote
six string Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 Gabor Szabo's High Contrast (Blue Thumb) w/Bobby Womack, so it's a little funkier than Gabor's usual. I used to have Double Nickels on a Dime on lp too. Good album. Quote
blajay Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 Oliver Nelson--The Blues and the Abstract Truth (Impulse!

sidewinder Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 Music Matters 2x45rpm - Tina Brooks 'True Blue'. Pretty definitive issue (unless I come across an affordable mint mono - more chance of being hit by lightning). followed up by Music Matters - Horace Silver 'The Cape Verdean Blues' Quote
