@spiritofradio the original mono sailboat copy I have was purchased new by my father in law, it’s old and not well cared for.
The reissue I just acquired “digitally remastered from the original analog tapes” definitely has more dynamic range, and a lot fewer pops and snaps. It is mono as well.
Mounted a new Grado Opus3 LOMI cartridge today. Been burning it in all day, currently spinning Vol1 of Art’s Meet You at the Jazz Corner of the World. Then we’ll do Vol2. Already spun Rush A Farewell to Kings, Leo Kottke My Fathers Face, and Kenny Burrell at The Village Vanguard.
