Ha, Coltrane can barely keep himself from taking off! Getz back under control. Horns sound really good together .
My favorite parts may be those great rhythm sections.
Thanks!
Jazz for aficionados
Stuart, there are thee recent ECM recordings of Carla Bley, Andy Shepard, and Steve Swallow. All are must haves. The older songs with legs is also very good.

One of our forum members made this comment about ECM Records: "For anyone that listens ECM (and some others) albums, you should try to reverse polarity on your preamp, or on your speaker terminals, as those albums are ’out of phase’." This comment really surprised me, as in my opinion, ECM engineering is typically excellent. I decided to do some research. I went to a forum of ECM devotees on another site and asked about this issue; none of them had ever heard of it. Based on what I read there, I don’t believe that there’s any authoritative information to substantiate the "out of phase" claim. That being said, each of us is, of course, absolutely, totally free to set and reset our equipment as we see fit. I apologize for the rant! I’m interested in the truth and am totally open to seeing authoritative information on this topic. Thank you for your patience. Enough, time for some jazz! |
