Miles Davis- Kind of Blue, Analogue Productions 45 RPM UHQR.
Wow.
Thank you! Yes, I would agree... the Tone Poet releases are really something quite special. I love the packaging they come in. Great attention to detail and love the photography. Quiet vinyl, great sound and great music. I love what they are doing with these reissues! Although, as much as I love the Tone Poet, in this case I have to give the edge to my 1978 King pressing. The King just sounds so much more dynamic, fuller and more pure sounding with much more presence. I really feel like I’m there listening to the musicians live with the King. With the Tone Poet, it feels more laid back and reserved. This comparison is with playing both pressings back to back. If I didn’t have the King, I would certainly be very happy having just the Tone Poet re-issue. Part of the fun can be collecting multiple pressings to be used with multiple systems.... using the particular pressing that best suits each system 😊 Best wishes, Don |
This genre today... Ben Webster meets Oscar Peterson Verve, AP/QRP reissue 45rpm John Coltrane - A Love Supreme Impulse, Verve Acoustic Sounds Series Basie Jam #2 The second in the series of 3. I think the first one is my favorite, the third is my second favorite, and this one is still pretty darn good. |

Haven't posted in a while, but haven't stopped listening! This one arrived today and is on my table tonight. I have a few of these Acoustic Sounds Series Verve releases now, and I'm enjoying them.

Steely Dan-Can’t Buy A Thrill(MCA no barcode) Side B Chopin-The Chopin Preludes(M 33507) Side 1 Julie London-Tenderly Yours Side B Ted Nugent-Cat Scratch Fever(gatefold/barcode) Side 2 Mtume-You, Me And He Side 2 SQ Audiophile Mundell Lowe-Presents Transit West Side 2 SQ Audiophile Bonnie Raitt-Green Light Side 2 Sadao Watanabe-Rendezvous Side 2 SQ Audiophile Mtume pulls the upset and takes SQ crown. Only Julie London was hampered by SQ. The MCA "Dan" was good but nothing special. Green Light had a "Stones" type vibe to it with excellent content and near Audiophile SQ. If you have any interest in Jazz/Fusion Rendezvous should be in your collection. |
Howdy, Y'all Bill Evans AP 45rpm box set arrived so it will consume my listening a bit So far tonight: New Jazz Explorations - phenomenal Waltz For Debbie - same Everyone Digs Bill Evans - never sounded so good Portait in Jazz - might do a cage match shoot out with the One Step to see who reigns Supreme |
@boxer12 - There are definitely things I like about the album. Trying to decide it if all jells for me, into a cohesive whole. Or not... |
