    Interesting recording. Primarily used to confirm your setup is working extremely well, and to show that off to friends. Not the kind of thing you put on for pure enjoyments sake. At least IMO. Need to know how well your setup can reproduce the demanding sonics of a real drum kit? This is how you find out. Groove spacing and depth are insane, looks like someone carved the vinyl with a knife! Have never seen such wide and deep grooves. But makes sense given the short run time, and intent to show off extreme low end response. If you're looking for a test record, this is a must have!

      Lots of copies of this record makes me wonder if demand matches the supply? Its a basic drum break record but i got admit its recorded well. Ron Tutt is solid, Keltner is a legend.
