Newest impulse sacd releases

[kevin gilmore]

Just got in the 4 impulse sacd titles.

See you at the fair

out of the cool

coltrane

mingus mingus mingus mingus mingus

All of these have stickers that say SACD only.

The stickers are wrong!

The titles are all hybrids...

Haven't gotten mine yet, but do see that I've been charged for them. Just curious, are they pressed in Austria like the Blue Notes are? Oh and how do they sound!

Hopefully they'll get the shipping right this time around... Last time they shipped it to the wrong address and I had to have it shipped from there to me. =/

The mingus mingus mingus mingus mingus is supposed to be killer on 45 rpm vinyl I imagine the SACD is the same.

I'd be interested to hear if John Coltrane is buried in the mix in "Coltrane" like the 45 rpm vinyl. Supposedly sounds nothing like the original Impulse vinyl.

They are pressed in austria.

Have not had time to listen today, cleaning up from other software disasters.

This is very unusual, normally i drop everything for new music.

Deepak, do you mean the original original Impulse vinyl from 1962 or the Analogue Productions Impulse reissue?

I mean Coltrane is buried in the Analogue Productions vinyl. He is right in the mix in the original 1962 Impulse! vinyl from what I have read. No one from Analogue Productions has spoke up on the issue.

I don't know if they had master tapes for a lot of these AP Impulse reissues and that remains some what of an ambiguous area.

Havent got mine yet. Cant wait to hear them.

The wait for this stuff has been agonizing.

[kevin gilmore]

The mingus is fantastic. There are a couple of areas where they had a bit of trouble with the master tapes

but it sounds way better than it should for something from 1963. Sweet.

Am very interested in more impressions of these, keep it coming! Is Acoustic Sounds the place to order?

[Salt Peanuts]

Can anyone comment on the quality of redbook layer?

I ripped the Mingus last night and tried to listen, but was so exhausted I fell asleep immediately. I've got it playing on my itouch now, but with px100s as a bottleneck. I do like what I'm hearing though
