Excellent SACD quality "A Love Supreme" Coltrane

Crad,

I own the Love Supreme on SACD.

I will loan it to you to rip, IF you cannot find it on a hi-rez download. I do NOT want to sell it.

It will be a hassle as it will require postage both ways and a some kind of insurance fee so you don't forget to return it or a small child I can keep as hostage (well, you get the idea).

If you have to have it and cannot find it, I can help.

Cheers, Steelhead

Thanks for the excellent responses, I already looked into HDtracks and they don't have it for download just 180gr & SACD. I did find on Hi-Res Music website that they did a SACD re-master of John Coltrane’s A Love Supreme but they are not selling it now nor is there a download. I'm happy to pay for it.

Stealhead, Thank you for the gracious offer and wish I could take you up on it but currently I don't a SACD just a MacMini connected via a outboard DAC to my Ayre/Totems.

I do have another question is there a remaster or release that excels over the others that I should be looking for?

Again, thanks for the help.

I believe APO has a SACD hybrid in the works. Go to the Acoustic Sounds website.

Crad,

The 2003 Impulse version (B0000610-02) is vastly superior to the '86 version you own. According to the liner notes, this version was mastered by Rudy Van Gelder, from a copy different than "all previous digital incarnations of A Love Supreme." Also from the liner notes: "...Rudy Van Gelder declared it to be as close to the real thing as one could get in the analog domain without having the original tape..."

I haven't heard any subsequent releases (SACD or otherwise) because I'm happy enough with this version.
