Spanish Harlem, by Rebecca Pidgeon, The Raven


Hi y'all,

To those familiar with Rebecca Pidgeon's album, The Raven (Chesky), track 12, Spanish Harlem, around 00:30 there is a sound like something fell (like someone dropped something to the ground) in the background. I heard this album many times in many systems (one of my refs) and in my observations, the higher the resolution of the system, the further back this 'noise' is reproduced and it is significantly less audible. Is anybody else noticing that or observing something different instead? The same song is also on track 3 of Chesky's Ultimate Demo Disc CD. (Note: this is not promoting Chesky. I have no affiliation whatsoever with Chesky records. :) I haven't even bought their CD's in years... :( )

It sounds to me like either the piano player shifting on the bench, or the leg of a stool (same thing, really), which the bass player could be using. There is a similar sound at the beginning of the title song.

Write Chesky and ask them. Then see who guessed correctly.
