I can't say the same. It is not the most dynamic of his albums. It seems a little "compressed" sounding but I think that is the recording. I am guessing both of your albums were new and never treated or coated before? That album is certainly different sounding than the original CTI recordings of the era.
Bob James BJ4 sound quality
Hi all,
have checked in the database and have nothing "Bob James" or "BJ4" coming up. So I guess it's not come up yet.
I very much enjoy this record, have cleaned it (Hannl MERA) many times, but it just sounds still noticeably 'hazy'. Had another (same LP) before, it was scratchy and 'hazy' so I thought that was the reason --- we call it 'garden raked' (by a stylus gone bad).
My question: was this possibly by intend, too get some 'ultra mellow' effect?
Has anyone got this LP and can say the same?
Thanks,
Axel
