I think the piano distortion on Giant Steps is in the original recording and can't be eliminated. Maybe the mike was too close or the tape was being overloaded.
Distortion on Giant Steps?
I own several CD versions of John Coltranes Giant Steps. Seems to be major distortion (microphone, tape...) on the piano?
Such a great performance I can look past it but the distortion is a bit annoying, especially on piano solos.
Same holds true for occasional hum/buzz on Wes Montgomerys amp on a few of his albums.
