Holy Grail Analogue Recording Big Band found!


Years long quest for Toshiko Akyoshi-Lew Tabackin Big Band "Road Time" CD x 2 resolved!  Beautifully digitally remastered with all of the richness and glory of premier remote tape recording.

Oh, and the band...frighteningly great.  Scary!  Never a moments doubt of the performances, just taken aback by the dynamics and sound stage of a 1976 live recording.

Highest praise to Toshiko, Lew, band members, technical recording crew and mastering for a truly seminal effort.  Raise a glass to all facets wondrously executed perfection.

My brother who has my old Genesis 500 speakers (he replaced all the drivers and the servo amps with Gary’s current models for the current iteration of that speaker) loves big band recordings and plays big band trombone himself. I’ll look for any of this band’s recordings. Where did you finally locate the double CD you just acquired? Discogs?
