sidewinder Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) Yep - ‘Picadilly Lilly’ is the biz. Great set and strong playing all round ! Edited April 12, 2018 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Test pressing set. Sound is phenomenal - blows the CD version away (great though that is). Followed by.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterioso Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Braxton Arista Recordings, continued. Even more enjoyable after I understood how to find the tracks in the accompanying notes (which are of great value to me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I try to play just about any Kenton I quickly thing other music I'd rather hear! Only picked this up as it was ultra cheap. Perhaps I should give it a try.

I like this set too - time to dig it out. Ok I get it. The Kenton is on the to-be-played pile. Regarding the Elvin Jones my admiration for this set only grows. There’s quite a bit of depth to it. Mastering could be a tad bolder but it’s more than good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) Have dug the Kenton/Holman/Russo LP set for a spin as well, along with the Larry Young LP box. Pretty happy withe the mastering on the Elvin set. The combination of my cured ear infection and fairly recent upgrading of CD interconnect (big effect) has brought to light a major increase in perception of detail in the recordings, not to mention dynamics. In fact, I am hearing these recordings in a new light. Some of the later sessions on the Elvin Mosaic are a tad warm and bright. Of their time plus the Sonny Lester effect, I guess.

Bluesnik Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 I picked it up as it was going OOP at Mosaic, together with the Teddy Wilson, and I don't regret having taken the plunge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
