usatran, There you have me (when it comes to Blue Note). True, the occasional pressing is terrific, but on average I find them to be a bit "muddy". What makes BN collectible in my opinion (of course) is the major important jazz artists whose performances are captured on that label. Some of the Japanese reissues are superior, purely with respect to sound quality, to the originals. Of course, this is a broad generalization and based on subjective opinion.
Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital
I have not bought a vinyl record since CDs came out, but have been exposed to numerous claims that vinyl is better. I suspect jazz may be best placed to deliver on these claims, so I am looking for your recommendations.
I must confess that I do not like trad jazz much. Also I was about to fork out A$145 for Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" but bought the CD for A$12 to see what the music was like. I have kept the change!
I love the jazz in the movie Babylon, which features local Oz girl Margo Robbie (the film, not the jazz).
So what should I buy?
