Kenny Burrell's album Midnight Blue


Hello, I really love this album by Kenny Burrell. Over the years on my system whenever I listen to this album, Burrell's guitar is prominent out of the right speaker while facing my system (and saxes are on the left facing my system). Recently I changed out my preamp and, on first listening to Midnight Blue, Burrell's guitar was now on the left and saxes on the right, opposite as before. I must have inadvertently changed an interconnect connection along the line. So, this is the question, How does one really know what channels the instruments were originally set with any recording, right or left?  I know this sounds a bit petty, but I would want to be listening to how the artist originally intended a recording to sound and what channels the various instruments were intended.  Does anyone know what channel the guitar in Midnight Blue was intended? Thanks, Jim

so, having not heard this, I went on qobuz...will listen...but Chitlins Con Carne - My Wife and I just discovered this little diddy, first from Stevie Ray Vaughan, then from various other artists. This song seems to be some kind of rights of passage that artists have to create their own way of playing. Nice...listening now.

Jim, listening as I write to Midnight Blue and loving it. Always looking for new music. Greg in MD

You have good taste. I have many Kenny Burrell recordings. In my system,   "Midnight Blue" Burrell is on the left and Stanley Turrentine (Tenor saxophone) is on the right.
