Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
In my version, Percy Heath's sound is barely noticeable. The Modern Jazz Trio doesn't quite hit the mark either.
The sound quality on this one is not good. You can barely hear the bass and drums. Don't get me wrong, the music is awesome, but I wouldn't suggest this version.
Think of this as The Modern Jazz Duo featuring John Lewis and Milt Jackson...but be warned, this early stereo mix is quite poor, with Heath's bass and Kay's drums barely audible. This pressing does a good job of capturing the flawed mix. My copy has some light surface noise, but it's not too distracting. I can't stress this enough, STICK WITH THE MONO VERSION. The music deserves five stars, but this stereo mix isn't the way to experience it.
This release sounds nothing like the Speakers Corner version I owned. It's like hearing a whole new album- absolutely stunning sound
Awesome sounding record, mixed and mastered in mono with great sound quality & solid bass.
