I missed the London trip, but a friend who didn't described the new music to me - very accurately as it turned out, once I could hear it on record. Quote

Duke Ellington "Jazz Party in Stereo" Mobile Fidelity gold cd Engineering and artistry meet in an epic encounter. I saw that very edition for a bargain price and suggested to my hephew that he'd like it. I wish that I had purchased it instead. This recording was my introduction to Duke Ellington. One question: Is the applause present, as the Columbia reissue omits it, even though the performances are identical. Either there were mikes in the hallway outside the studio, or it was dubbed in later. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 30, 2022 Report Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) The applause IS present on this one. I believe that the applause is dubbed in and this one uses the LP master tape. The Columbia cds seem to use a pre-dubbed master tape. No release of this I have heard, LP or cd, sounds less than really good. This one has just a touch more "dimensionality" to it to my ears. Amazing music. Edited March 30, 2022 by jazzbo Quote
