Jazz at the Pawn Shop. Anyone know what Vol. ?


I've heard of a cd called "Jazz at the Pawn Shop" that was supposed to be an incredible cd. Can anyone guide me to which volume it is and by what artist? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks

Riley, thanks for the search. I had found it on line but didn't know which volume to get. My player doesn't play sacds to there potential so I was looking for a red book.
Viridian, I'm always glad to know there's still assholes left in the world.
Hifiman, what you're talking about is the reason I'm searching for the cd. It's hard to find music that puts you there anymore. I have a Kieth Jarret Trio cd that's live recorded and it puts you right in the audiance. Glad to know you understand. I don't have a turntable to play vinyl on , but my music room is treated and my system is very three dimensional. Thank's for your input.
Stanwal, could you send me a link on that set. I'm very interested in the $16.95 price point. I'm not familiar with Rob Wassermann but I like the live unprocessed recordings that have just a couple of mikes on stage, and you get natural depth and width.
I picked up this one from ebay

It's a Prophone recording from Sweden. It was recorded in 1996 and I'm hoping it sounds good. Thanks for your help. zman
I didn't know Johnny Cash played Dixieland Jazz. I guess you learn something new every day.
Viridian, I owe you an apology. I shouldn't have said something so harsh when you were just being humerous. I'm sorry and hope you can forgive me. My actions were unbecoming.
I'm sorry to all that read this thread and hope you can forgive me. zman
Thank you for your input Viridian, I need to get into more of the raw recordings. I'm gradually leaning in that direction due to a dear friend that has introduced me into the more raw jazz. I've always liked the smooth jazz stuff. But it's an aquired taste that I'm finally getting for the good stuff. My friend told me after I shared the "you are there" experience I had with Kieth Jarrett, about the same experience that the JATP cd may hold. I'm interested in any well recorded album that has that sound to it. I'll look up some of the recommendations you have supplied. Thank you.
I recieved my J@PS cd today and warmed up the tubes on my Almarro 318B. After 30 min. I inserted the disc and was not dissapointed. The imaging was beautiful. The music was very pleasing. In the intro of most of the songs the music didn't overwhelm the audiance and the atmosphere was holographic. Very soothing. Thanks to all for helping in my decision. If you like this type of music, I would recommend this album to anyone.
