relyles Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 I succombed to the peer pressure and preordered the disc as well. Quote

Clunky Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 I have ordered it...............................................................................................................................................................................just now Quote
king ubu Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Had my first listen tonight - pretty exhilarating stuff! Sound is okay, took me a few minutes to adjust, but really, it's just fine. But the music, wow! For starters, you get a 21 minute "Love's Dream" that is something! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Hope mine arrives soon. While the rest of you are waiting, check out Silver Cornet. :-) Quote
king ubu Posted April 18, 2015 Report Posted April 18, 2015 Btw, there's lots of photos, one inside the digipack, front of and inside the booklet (four double pages, I think), and on the back of the booklet you get the actual concert flyer. All in small format, sometimes two pics per page, but all annotated. Very nice job for sure! Quote
felser Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 I'll be "in" eventually. Enjoyed most of the Mosaic Select and Jonathan's release, and I have the other Flying Dutchman on the way. Quote
walt Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 Music is top shelf.Sound is good other than the basses being way too low.I had to up my bass tone control almost all the way. Quote
Clunky Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 This arrived this morning and it doesn't disappoint. The musical interplay is all you would expect from this group. The sound is very good and shouldn't put anyone off, although I'd agree that the two basses seem somewhat buried in the mix. I don't have tone controls but I'm not convinced that cranking up the bass would assist the overall sound. A very good issue and as Flurin has noted it comes with a multipage CD size booklet with essay and many photos. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Mine arrived this morning but no time to listen yet. Nice package. Quote
Stefan Wood Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 Thanks guys. They took my money! Ordered a copy. Quote
jcam_44 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Got my copy in Friday. I agree about the low sound of the bass, but I'm not surprised or deterred by it. It's similar sound quality-wise to the Bobby Bradford & The Mo'tet "Live at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art". Never tire of hearing his horn sing. Quote
LWayne Posted May 1, 2015 Report Posted May 1, 2015 Any other comments on this CD? I am thinking of ordering especially as I tried, in vain, to track down a physical copy of this CD at FNAC and Paris Jazz Corner. Looks like I will need to order directly from Dark Tree, or, try to order through my local brick & mortar. LWayne Quote
jlhoots Posted May 1, 2015 Report Posted May 1, 2015 Arrived here in the US in one week from Dark Tree with a nice personal hand written note from Bertrand. No problem with mailing packaging. The music is great IMO. Quote
jcam_44 Posted May 1, 2015 Report Posted May 1, 2015 Pretty seemless ordering through Dark Tree. Got it in about a week. Quote
JSngry Posted May 1, 2015 Report Posted May 1, 2015 Arrived here in the US in one week from Dark Tree with a nice personal hand written note from Bertrand. No problem with mailing packaging. The music is great IMO. My experience/impressions as well, exactly. Bass is fully audible, very present, just not very "bass"y. sounds like it might have been a cassette recording, actually/possibly, or a slower-speed reel. Band balance is excellent, just not "unlimited frequency spectrum". No matter, a wonderful document, and exemplary order fulfillment. Buy with confidence! [Edit to add that after further listening, definitely not a cassette recording. And also that this is one helluva record, period.] [Further edited to further add, ok, I see, "recorded on 4 track reel to reel by Pete Welding"] Quote
jlhoots Posted May 2, 2015 Report Posted May 2, 2015 Dusty Groove now says they have it. Not sure how many copies. Quote
romualdo Posted May 5, 2015 Report Posted May 5, 2015 just ordered arrived today with a hand written note by Bertrand (Gastaut) - haven't listened yet Quote

Jason Bivins Posted November 18, 2015 Report Posted November 18, 2015 Not sure if this has been mentioned on some other thread, but No Business have just reissued Echoes from Rudolph, too. Great times for Carter devotees. Quote
