John Coltrane Ballads

I have a 20 bit remaster that was done in 1995 that sounds very good. It is about the same sound quality as the Deluxe Edition of A Love Supreme.

Jazz vocalist Karrin Allyson has recorded a very nice version of the Ballads album covering all the songs on Coltrane's Ballads plus three more of his tunes that fit that description. It's on the Concord label. Sound is better than Coltrane's Ballads and I think she does a good job of singing the tunes. Her vocals are pretty straightforward and accessible. Most jazz fans would like the album, I think.

hi Philjolet
for me the best sound quality was offered by mobile fidelity gold cd.
i tried some others before buying this one, and never looked back. my strong recomendation
hope this helped/ alex

I have the Mofi gold CD which is very good but the new Japanese SHM CD version is the best I've heard.
