In that era it was likely an Ampex 350 or 351. An all tube machine that captured most of the great music of that time.
Tonight my music group was listening to a reissue of the Blue Note, "Cool Struttin" from 1958 ! We were all amazed at the sound quality from this album, especially the perfection in the way the horn section was done.
Of course the talent was beyond the pale, Sonny Clark, Jackie McLean on alto, and Art Farmer on trumpet. Bassist was Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones, both from Miles Davis band.
Sometimes I think we are going backwards. It's just amazing how excellent this LP was, both musically and sonically.
