What Recordings Of Yours Did Not Age Well?
I happened to be scrolling through Napster in the Red Garland section and found "Red Alert", an album that I bought on vinyl in 1978 when I had a Sansui 771 receiver, Technics turntable with Shure V15 Type III, and generic 12 inch 3-way speakers. I remember that I'd heard a tune from the album on the local FM jazz station and went out and bought the album the same day. I hadn't listened to the album in 30 years. I cued it up on Napster and sat down and listened to it. Tidal and Amazon do not have this recording. It was a pleasant listening experience, but nothing that would make me want to buy it today if I didn't own it....and if I never hear it again, I won't miss it. For the life of me I can't remember what tune on the LP convinced me to buy it. Back in 1978, I was very discriminating how I spent my money on recordings because I was recently out of college....and a music purchase had to really count.
Do you have any recordings that didn't age well in this regard?
