NY Reunion

Anybody else have both the LP and CD/SACD of McCoy Tyner's "New York Reunion" and notice the R&L channels are reversed? On my CD Joe Henderson"s sax comes in on the right channel, and on the left on the LP. Both CD and LP are Cheskey. I've checked my Thorazine levels, and although subtherapeutic, close enough.

I have them both, and will check this evening. My Lithium levels are a little high, so right now I'm hearing "Page One" playing in my head. Hmmmmmmm, channel balance is a little off - nothing new there!

Hey Mes, they're the same on my system, Henderson on the right, Tyner on the left on "Recorda Me." You might want to check the polarity if your connections on the phono rig - headshell leads perhaps? Damn, that's a good recording! Thanks for prompting me to drag it out (the LP that is!) -John

Thanx for the reply, John. I've checked everything, I'll try again. Perhaps I had my head on backwards when I listened to the LP. I agree, it's an excellent LP. Mark

It's too bad Chesky didn't issue it as a double-LP, to include all of the songs present on the CD. But a great-sounding truncated LP is better than no LP at all, I say. And I BELIEVE that the polarities of my sytem are correct, but I could just be having one of those pesky flashbacks. -John

Sometimes, John, those pesky flashbacks are the highlight of my day. Look out! what the hell is that yellow/orange/violet, solid/vapor crustacean looking..... Mark
