Reviews
- Edited 6 months agoKiller spiritual jazz and other style(s) that I hesitate to try to categorize due to my own ignorance.
This pressing sounds great, although things can get busy when everyone is going at it. Seems to have full dynamic range or close to it, although I don’t measure stuff like that with anything but my ears. - has anyone compared this pressing to the OG? i mean to me it sounds a little lofi but it seems that the original was also like that? don't have one so if anyone can compare that'd be nice. This copy for me the bass is completely muffled out.
- Edited one year agocouple of pops in the first seconds of the first side but this sounds amazing otherwise. definitely recommend. wild piece of jazz and black people lore (for lack of a better word) i grew up listening to in the horrid quality the music came in on the Herbie Hancock bootleg. truly special stuff.
- Edited 2 years agoNice pressing overall. A few sources online seem to suggest a digital step in the mastering chain. That said, good alternative if you don’t want to drop some serious coin for an original.
- Edited 2 years agoThis is actually the album Kawaida by Toudie Heath-Kuumba (Tootie Heath) on which Hancock plays piano.
https://www.discogs.com/release/1257682-Kuumba-Toudie-Heath-Kawaida referencing Kawaida (LP, Album, Gatefold) OB-301
The Japanese Mercury version is actually pressed on translucent brown vinyl, whereas the UK version on DJM is pressed on translucent plum coloured vinyl.
The UK version also has slightly better mastering, referencing them together there is more high end air on the UK pressing.
Lastly, the OG US version has a longer edit of the track 'Kamili', on both the Japanese and UK issues this track is around a minute shorter.
A very good LP from this stellar line up, both Modal and Spiritual, which unfolds and rewards with repeated listens.referencing Kawaida (LP, Album, Gatefold) OB-301
Repress for RSD 2020 is on the way ! Great and underrated album with hell of a casting.referencing Kawaida (LP, Album, Reissue) OB-301
Looks like a suspicious replica to me. So the question would be, does it sound good enough to worth any money? Is it at least as good as a CD?
