Miles Davis The Original Mono CD's

Columbia just released remastered Miles first 9 recordings including Kind Of Blue, as well as some Collaberations with Gil Evans. Comes as a 9 cd set.

With all the other "remastered" versions of these classic recordings do you think the sound quality will actually be improved? Or is this just another way for the label to get more of our bucks?

At any cause, should be a great set!

These classic Jazz records were mastered in Mono back in the day. Another vote for 'yes'.

Tostado -

circa 1959, stereo as we know it, was not commonplace. I know that various engineers/studio types were certainly playinf around w/ the possibilities.

It would be the early 60's before Stereo took its form (as we know it).

Back to Tostado-

if , in fact, KOB was recorded in stereo circa 1959, it would have been a very early stereo (nothing like what stereo would become in the 1960's)...
