The stereo/mono issue was discussed early on in this thread. Most of the masters of these were recorded in stereo and then folded down to mono. So that is the way AP decided to re-issue this series. If the master happens to be in mono, then the re-issue will be mono. In effect, these are re-issues of the master recordings. Not necessarily re-issues of the original issues.
Blue Note 45rpm reissue
I am suprised that I can't find much discussion concerning the new Blue Note 45rpm reissue's from Music Matters. I got my first two and they are wonderful! Very quiet and dynamic. Solid classic jazz. Sound stage is deep and on a few occasions I jumped up because of a noise in my kitchen, (off the music room), or a knock on the door only to find out that the sound stage has expanded further into the room. Anyone else try these out or heard any other offerings than the first two?
