PhilMH ● 10th Aug 2024		Also released in Australia 7 July 1997, along with several other Verve Master Editions. To my knowledge, none of the VME's were manufactured in Australia, PolyGram (as was) preferring to import European stock for most of their jazz product (their local classics and jazz label manager did originate some compilations and other reissues, e.g. the Eloquence classical series, that were pressed here), so this is another one that should be made International. I suspect that this same remastering was used for the 2005 Verve Originals reissue, linked below, that has the same two alternate takes. I now have my late father's copy of the original CD issue 823 120-2 (which should also be International, but I don't have an Aussie release date for it, as it was issued before I started getting Platterlog), but I haven't done a sound comparison with the Verve Originals issue yet. And a polite request - please don't use original LP catalogue numbers as second catalogue numbers for CD reissues. The original LP number's appearance here on the disc face is just a facsimile of the original LP label, as are the "Long Playing Microgroove" (which a CD isn't) and "Verve Records, Inc." (a company that ceased to exist in 1961 following its purchase by MGM Records); issues in different formats would not share the exact same catalogue number.



gregs45s SUBS 10th Aug 2024		Was able to compare this remaster to the stock release (823 120-2)(not saying that recording is a bad one, that AAD is a good one also), and, can confirm it's a definite upgrade, the instruments are better spaced creating an improved soundstage, and the overall clarity has been improved, highlighting details previously unheard on the original. (Recommended) 8-9/10
