I agree with Viridian. Because the direct to disc recordings are made in "realtime", some "clams" are heard also. That's the charm of some of these LPs. I don't listen much to Big Band, but the "King James Version" by the Harry James Band is astounding. Talk about "presence". It will transform your speakers into a pair of horns. And if you own horns, it would be "off the chain"!
