Ella & Vaughan on XRCD???

"Take Love Easy" in incredible on vinyl. I don't have the CD for coparison, but the master of Ella and Joe Pass is one of the very best recordings of her voice. Pass takes a back seat with some incredible comping that's flawlessly recorded.

So, I think that you should buy the best format that you can afford, because the masters must be truly stunning.

There's another Ella release with Joe Pass, I forget the name, but it's just as good as "Take Love Easy".

Oh yeah, I've got all the songbooks on LP. They're a historical landmark, so far as I'm concerned, AND every one of them sounds fantastic. The original artwork on the LPs is also great.
