Once again, the Music Matters 45 series delivers with this release. It might just be Horace Silver's finest work, featuring some truly legendary musicians. The mastering by Gray and Hoffman is top-notch. RTI's 180g pressing is super flat and quiet, and it plays beautifully with both stereo and mono cartridges.
I can CONFIRM this is STEREO, with trumpet and drums on the right channel, sax on the left, piano and bass in the middle.
Ha. The opening track, No Smokin', really lights a fire. Scorches, in fact. I could've easily spent an evening in a jazz lounge, soaking up this band's vibe. These musicians sound like they've shared a stage countless times, not just thrown together for this recording. As far as I know, that's not the case, but the chemistry is undeniable. The album's tracklist is a delightful mix, showcasing a range of styles. Horace Silver often gets pigeonholed for his famous tunes, but this record defies those expectations. The diversity is refreshing and makes for a thoroughly enjoyable listen.
Great, hefty and authentic sound quality here. No RVG found in the grooves.
… absolutely adore the audio quality of these Classic Records all analog mono series. This one is no exception. It brings you even closer to the original recording. The Super Vinyl Flat Profile Pressing by RTI is truly exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
